RT if you believe @OrielOxford @UniofOxford must immediately cancel this disgusting event with Professor Arday’s tormentor @nathancofnas. Join the @OxfordSUTR protest on Nov 17 should they fail to do so!

On 19 July 2024, I published two posts on my X account in which I made allegations about Mr Mothin Ali being involved in the Harehills riots. I have accepted these were incorrect and I have jointly made a statement in open Court in order to apologise to Mr Ali and correct the record which is below. archive.org/details/JSIOC-MA…

So, given the lie was an obvious political hit job, who is getting fired? Because someone should be.

Yeah, about that drinking culture in westminster Hannah Spencer called it out. And everyone who has ever set foot in westminster knew she was right. Including every MP and journalist who mocked her over it In my experience, students have a more mature attitude to drink than MPs

If you want to ensure no one gives a fuck about the law, the police lying to everyone's faces is a good way to get there.
Replying to @metpoliceuk
The protest has now concluded with a total of 152 people arrested by officers. The vast majority of arrests - 134 - were for expressing support for a proscribed organisation, under Section 12 of the Terrorism Act 2000. This included two people arrested for attempting to put up a stage at the event. 4 arrests were made on suspicion of encouraging or assisting a crime, under Section 45 of the Serious Crime Act 2007. A number of officers were assaulted while making arrests, but thankfully none required hospital treatment. Two people were arrested for assaulting emergency workers.

You chose your side, and it ain't us.
This photo takes me right back. Working as a home carer for Stockport Council. It was my first proper job. A special job. But one of the toughest I've ever done. I know what it’s like to wash someone, cook for them, and make time to actually listen to them before rushing off to the next call with the clock ticking. I know how it feels to graft hard day and night doing tough, physical shifts for wages I struggled to get by on. That's why I've always fought for a fairer deal for social care. And I'm proud we started laying the foundations for change through the Employment Rights Act with the framework for the first ever fair pay agreement for adult social care workers. But that’s also why the Prime Minister's announcement today matters so much. A National Care Service could be genuinely transformative. For decades, governments have kicked this issue down the road because they have seen it as too risky, too difficult and too complicated. That changes today.

Can't afford 6 million for Jodrell Bank. But can afford 3 billion a year to the corrupt ukrainian midget. This is deliberate debasement of the country.

RIP Bill Oddie. Loved his conservation work, but whenever I hear his name, my first thought is always the ancient Lancastrian martial art, Ecky Thump. You know someone did good when they made you laugh as a kid, and you still remember it in your 50s.

So we have mcfadden, who claimed 40K to rent a house next door to one he owned. Haigh, who had to resign due to phone theft fraud, and raynor, who resigned for tax avoidance. All in senior jobs. When this stuff is rewarded, why should anyone else follow the rules?

starmer's final statement? If you fuck up so bad at your job your own workmates throw you out the office, you don't get to make an empassioned speech about how great you did. No one wants to hear that. Just fuck off.

6% of this country attend church on a regular basis. I guarantee alex phillips is not one of them.
I'm sick and tired of right-wing racist bollocks being shoved down my throat! 😤😡🤬

Giving billions to that cocaine addled midget in ukraine, while british kids go to bed hungry, is not keeping our people safe. That you think it is suggests you should be nowhere near the lawmaking process of the United Kingdom.
Any PM worth their salt knows that the their first duty is to keep our people safe. That's why I'm proud to see the PM recognised with France's Légion d'honneur and Ukraine's Order of Freedom. Soon, much may change about our leadership, but our support for Ukraine will not. 🇬🇧🇺🇦

Here's a thought. Who has actually hurt this country? The lady down the road who struggles through life in a wheelchair, or Liz Truss? So why does the latter get 100K a year for life off the state, and the former gets to listen to rich people talk about welfare cuts?

OK. I just saw a poster for 'Bindependence Day', and I've been chuckling for 10 minutes straight. Our royal family are utter shits, our politicians are corrupt, but the people are amazing.

World Cup - I want an England France final, not just because they have been the best 2 teams to watch. Both sets of supporters have songs about trump being a rapist. I want to hear that broadcast to 1.5 billion, right in front of him.

Schrodinger's Trident - A nuclear deterrent that is both essential to stop Russia taking over the country, and will do nothing to stop Russia invading the country. The people that say both these things on telly are called military experts.

Starmer joined labour in 2014. 6 years later he was leader. You could understand that if he was some world class orator or political strategist. But as the media are running to tell us, he is neither. So how did that happen? It certainly was not an organic rise.

One run dragged 3 england defenders to him, then he simply headed off for the unmarked player. Schoolkids know how to defend better than that.

Not sure what is worse. Starmer claiming removing the two child benefit cap is his greatest achievement, when he suspended MPs fort voting to remove it. Or a journalist earning 300 grand a year not pointing that out. Rigby is utterly useless.

It doesn;t really matter whether you agree with Pal Action or not. If the judiciary openly bends the concept of justice like this, eventually people will accept there is none. That will have terrible consequences for us as a country.
