Thought For The Day

STATEMENT: Reform UK has reported ITV, its board, and its undercover reporters to the police. Some of the crimes carry up to 10 years in prison. They forged a passport. They directly interfered in elections and almost certainly altered the results. Being paid to “canvass” for Reform in crucial wards we lost by a few dozen votes. They lied to a veteran about their service and left him “violated”. This is unprecedented. The police are now involved. Scrutiny of political parties is one thing. But anyone breaking the law to try and ruin the lives of Reform’s staff, members or volunteers will be reported to the police and pursued relentlessly in the courts. Here’s what happened 👇

🚨 LABOUR COUNCILLOR WALKS FREE FROM COURT AFTER POSSESSING THE WORST INDECENT IMAGES OF CHILDREN A Labour Councillor has been given a 12-month suspended sentence for possessing indecent images of children deemed category A considered the worst. Tom Dewey a Labour Councillor for Hackney has avoided jail after admitting possessing indecent images of children.

Thomas Dewey, who was elected as a Labour councillor for De Beauvoir ward, was arrested by detectives from the National Crime Agency who seized laptops and tablets at his home in Hertford Road in Hackney, just days before May’s local elections last year. He had a “huge problem” with looking at indecent images of children from the internet for his own use, Wood Green Crown Court heard. Described by party activists as “ambitious”, he had worked at Hackney Council for nearly two years as a support officer for the Mayor and Cabinet office and for a consultancy advising on planning. He was the branch secretary for the De Beauvoir ward for Labour and had spent years campaigning for the party in Hackney. Last month, the 36-year-old admitted a charge of making five category A indecent images of children, a further charge of making 41 category B indecent images, as well as making 203 category C indecent images of children. Images are graded with category A considered the worst. Dewey, now of Hampshire, also admitted a charge of possessing 78 extreme pornographic images of children – an act which results, or is likely to result, in serious injury to a person and having 1,523 prohibited images of children in his possession. The maximum sentence for the most serious charge is five years, depending on the number of images. Details of the images were not read out in court, but prosecutor Margia Mostafa said the content of the Category A images “are highly serious.” The starting point for the first charge is two years in prison but the steps Dewey has taken, along with his early guilty plea and remorse saw that cut to 12 months, suspended for two years. He received an additional six months for charge two, three months for charge three, six months for charge four, and six months for charge five, all suspended for two years and to run concurrently. Dewey also has to do 150 hours’ community service and 40 days of a “rehabilitation activity”. ,two days before his arrest at home in Hackney where he was “the sole occupant.” The NCA seized two laptops, two tablets and a hard drive and Dewey was arrested and cautioned at 7.03am. They had identified four “CyberTipline” reports which has user ID to a google drive and Dewey had uploaded indecent images of children to his personal account. Dewey was elected as a Labour councillor for the first time in the May 2022 council elections and resigned days later, triggering a by-election last July. Labour, which has a majority on the council, narrowly defeated the Green candidate in the by-election. The charges have caused upset amongst Labour campaigners who were unaware of the arrest until this summer.

Dreadful scenes coming from the Cost of living protests in France. Stop blaming immigrants. Nothing to do with immigration.

🚨This is insane. A ‘megadinghy’ full of invaders is on its way to Gosport. Burnham is sending ANOTHER police escort to take them to their taxpayer funded hotel. Just like they did in Portsmouth. Is there any country in history that gave police escorts to invading men? A country that treats invaders like Kings? While crushing dissent from its own people?
