Ex nurse, ex teacher, now thankfully retired. Finally found a job I can do without being constantly inspected and berated. Except now I’m a school Governor!

The long waited body cam footage from my arrest dated August 2025. 10 police officers in ski masks, face shields and equipped with a battering ram entered my home for an allegation of some burgled pasta from a complimentary buffet in a migrant hotel. Some points to note:- • excuse the penguin dressing gown! • there was 95 minutes of footage on 8 body cams so I’ve trimmed it down as best as I can • They refused to let me help my terminally ill mother out of bed • They locked a chihuahua and a shih tzu in separate room to us and initially refused to let them out over “safety concerns” • my girlfriend who is type 1 diabetic and requires insulin to survive, needed insulin immediately. When we were in the lounge it was asked for and told the officers where it was in the bedroom. Apparently 6 officers couldn’t find it after 10 minutes until I said it was a medical emergency and they finally let my girlfriend retrieve it in the exact place she said it was. • The female police officer in the van with me had the language of a 9 year old on some occasions, using phrases such as “more bigger” and finishing sentences such as “but yeah”. Extremely unprofessional. A 30 thousand pound operation over an allegation of unpaid plate of pasta from a complimentary migrant buffet.

The new Mayor of Manchester says she will use Xe/Xer pronouns to show her city is the most progressive in the UK. Bev said: ‘We want to drive the boomers out and usher in a new age where people can be whoever they want to be or anything’ xe demented
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Bev Craig, Mayor of Greater Manchester (not Manchester), has not announced Xe/Xer pronouns or made the quoted statement about driving boomers out; these claims are fabricated with no supporting evidence in her record. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bev_Craig bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… greatermanchester-ca.gov.uk/who-we-are/gmc…

Just had a guy on a bike almost crash into me on Marsham Street (maybe 8 mins walk from Parliament) as he was speeding along the pavement on an electric bike. 20s probably, Asian-looking I tell him to not ride on the pavement as I walk away - angrily, but no shouting or swearing etc He throws the bike down and comes after me and says "do you want me to shank you?" (aka stab). Tucked into his belt he has a longish piece of metal - seemed to be some sort of blade but I can't be 100% sure what it was in truth. Enough to scare me anyway I very hurriedly walk away and he yells "yeh run you posh cunt", and at some point he (I think) stops following I call the police (was in two minds between 101 or 999 ; ended up going for the latter). Operator asked me my name and then how to spell it (hardly seemed the priority) Tell her what happened. She asks if I am still in danger - I say well I've walked away but the guy is still around I think She says it's not an emergency so I need to fill out a form on the police website. She says she'll text me the link I say - there's a guy threatening to stab people and is that not a priority? She says no and to fill out the form. I try to interject but mid-sentence she cuts the call That's it Not sure what to think really but as someone who doesn't have many interactions with the @metpoliceuk I just didn't really expect it to be so..dismissive? Maybe they were having a busy Friday night who knows

This is Dieter Schwarz - the owner of Lidl, the richest man in Germany, one of the richest people in the world. Only two known photos exist of him, zero video footage, and he's never given an interview. He is an extremely dedicated philanthropist, having put billions mostly into educational causes. He lives in Heilbronn, in Germany, and has transformed the area into an educational/tech/research hub, as well as funding educational activities at Oxford, HEC Paris, Stanford and many others. Technically, he doesn't actually own Lidl any more, as he set up 'The Dieter Schwarz Foundation' - a charity - which owns the Schwarz Group, the parent company of Lidl. In other words, Lidl is owned by a charity that ploughs lots of money into educational causes - and yet Lidl never use any of that in advertising. One of the most successful, interesting people on earth, and nobody even knows what he looks like any more.

Sophie, a 20-year-old victim of a migrant rape, was forced to go through a brutal cross-examination, pushing total lies, in court by the migrant’s lawyer: “You were taking his hand and pressing it on to your vagina, weren’t you?” “You deliberately exposed your bottom to the man in a provocative way, and asked him to have sex with you?” “You were grabbing at his penis through his tracksuit bottoms and trying to stimulate him, weren’t you?” “You asked him for £50 to have sex with you, I suggest?” Sophie denied all these claims. Alshimery’s barrister continued: “But you hadn’t been raped, had you?” “No, I have been raped,” Sophie replied.
EXCLUSIVE: The full story of Khaliz Ali Alshimery, the illegal migrant who hunted women and raped a 20-year-old autistic student in Oxford, and the system that failed her. • In court, his barrister accused the student he raped of exposing herself, grabbing at his penis, and demanding £50 for sex • Migrant NGOs and protesters fought his transfer from a hotel to a barge days before he attacked her • The BBC ran 3 stories on his conviction and never once mentioned he was an illegal migrant • The victim's letter to the Home Office asking what they knew about Alshimery went unanswered • He's now exploiting a "stateless Bidoon" loophole to avoid deportation "It feels like his country now, not mine," his victim told me.

I searched for the name of this poor woman, suffocated in black cloth. I COULD NOT FIND IT! She is referred to ONLY as the WIFE of Hafiz Ashrafi! SHE IS UTTERLY DEHUMANISED. Wake up women! This is what Islam means for us, for our daughters, our sisters, our granddaughters.

Someone tell the economists that even with the triple lock, the state pension remains around half the legal living wage and remains an absolute poverty level income. Yet they are still moaning and griping about it being 'unsustainable'. Stop treating pensioners with contempt,

🚨 L’historien Bill Federer : « D’ici 2030, il y aura une majorité musulmane en Europe, et ils voteront tout simplement la charia. Les gens oublient que l’Égypte a été entièrement chrétienne pendant 6 siècles. Ce n’est plus le cas. Toute l’Afrique du Nord a été entièrement chrétienne pendant 6 siècles. Ce n’est plus le cas. Constantinople était la plus grande ville chrétienne du monde, et la plus grande église chrétienne du monde pendant des centaines d’années était Sainte-Sophie. Elle a été transformée en mosquée. Ils veulent faire la même chose avec le Vatican. » Que pensez-vous de cet avertissement historique ? A. Il faut prendre conscience du danger démographique et culturel B. L’Europe doit stopper l’immigration pour survivre C. C’est une vision alarmiste et islamophobe D.

£13,000 per annum is a pitiful #pension by international standards, and we pay it later than many other countries. Why is dignity in retirement unaffordable only here? #TripleLock #Newsnight

🚨 THIS IS JUDGE GRAHAM COTTLE Well here we go again. You know what this judge did? He let paedophiles Lee Pollard and Marc Allen walk free on suspended sentences despite them having s*xual intercourse with an underage girl. This judge claimed the underage girl gave consent!! But under law she legally couldn't!! The case was sent to the court of appeal and they overturned judge Cottles decision. Pollard, 26, of Saxmundham, Suffolk, has been jailed for two years, nine months and Allen, 26, of Torquay, Devon, has been given three years and six months. These judges need jailing themselves!
