I’ve noticed I’m swearing A LOT in my tweets. I’m fed up with the general stupidity of a small section of humanity who feel they are right and everyone must bow to their unquestionable superior “knowledge” even if it’s spectacularly wrong. Not stopping so happy if you unfollow me

Burning meat outdoors in a dirty shopping trolley, yet they still somehow manage to get a 5 star hygiene rating 🤦‍♂️

Judge Nicola Talbot Hadley Lets Offender Walk Free Despite “Grotesque” Child Abuse Material ⛔️ In a decision that has stunned investigators and angered child‑protection advocates, Judge Nicola Talbot Hadley allowed a Felixstowe man to walk free from court despite being caught with tens of thousands of indecent images of children including material he created himself. Christopher Nind, 46, stood in the dock at Ipswich Crown Court facing what police described as “some of the most grotesque and disturbing material ever recovered in Suffolk.” Yet Judge Talbot Hadley imposed a 24month sentence, suspended meaning Nind left court a free man. A Haul So Extreme Officers Struggled to Describe It When officers raided Nind’s home on 6 December 2023, they seized 30 devices and uncovered: 532 Category A images 907 Category B images 42,157 Category C images 274 Category A videos 450 Category B videos 234 Category C videos But the most disturbing discovery was that Nind had inserted himself into child abuse imagery, filming himself performing sexual acts while watching abuse and digitally manipulating images with horror masks and other grotesque additions. PC Nicola Flack of the Internet Child Abuse Investigation Team said the case was “distressing,” adding that Nind had created “movies and images of himself in amongst the child sexual abuse material.” Yet the Judge Opted Against Prison Despite the scale, severity and self‑produced nature of the material, Judge Talbot Hadley chose not to jail him Instead imposing ⬇️ 35 rehabilitation days 100 hours of unpaid work 10year Sexual Harm Prevention Order 10 years sex offenders register A Decision That Raises Serious Questions Child‑protection specialists say the ruling highlights a growing crisis of confidence in sentencing for sexual offences involving children. The sheer volume of material and the fact Nind actively created new abuse content has led to widespread disbelief that a custodial sentence was not imposed. Campaigners argue that suspended sentences in cases like this send a dangerous message: that even the most extreme child abuse material offences can be met with community based penalties. Judge Talbot Hadley insisted rehabilitation could be achieved outside prison. For many, that explanation will do little to quell the outrage.

A whistleblower has revealed this month that civil servants across multiple Whitehall departments have been gaming the flexitime system to award themselves up to fifty extra days of paid holiday a year That's about 2.5 months of full-time work lifted off the public payroll without record, on top of the CS-norm 26 days of annual leave, the eight public holidays, the contractual sick days, and of course the parental allowances that are already part of the standard package. The methods and techniques by which this fraud has been accomplished are worth dwelling on, because the detail tells you something about the institution. The first technique is the laptop-open-on-the-kitchen-table move. Here, the civil servant clocks off for all intents and purposes at 5pm but leaves a work laptop on, accumulating "active hours" from a home Wi-Fi connection, registering the evening as labour without performing any of it. The second trick is the commuting-time-as-paid-hours wheeze, in which the round trip from Surbiton to Whitehall - coffee-and-podcast - is logged as part of the working day. The third con, which the whistleblower reported as the most brazen of them all, is the straightforward falsification of office attendance against the three-days-a-week-on-site rule that this government, having promised the public a return of civil servants to civil-service buildings, has manifestly failed to enforce. The falsifications, in some cases, have been running for years. Sit, for a moment, with the kind of person who does this and the kind of institution that permits it. The person doing it is, in the main, a desk-bound senior official on between £55,000-130,000 a year, with access to a clocking system that runs on trust, who has decided, with the active connivance of his line manager and the silent assent of his department, that the appropriate response to that public trust is to defraud it. And it's not even ambitious or spectacular. At least with a major fraud, you have a level of vision and nerve you have to admire even as you despise the motivating corruption. No, here, it's done through a series of small, deniable engineered manoeuvres that together transfer large sums of public money into undeserving pockets. No honour among thieves, but some thieves are even less honourable than others. The institution that permits it is the British Civil Service, an organisation whose senior cadre has spent the last decade in a state of escalating public-facing self-pity about its working conditions while the country it is paid to run has visibly fallen apart underneath it. These are the same people who inherited the mandate of Brexit and, because the idea ran against the Metropolitan class bromides by which they orient their lives, hashed it up on purpose to punish the electorate whom they are duty-bound to serve. And it's the same civil service that could not, in the end, manage a single COVID procurement contract without losing about £30 billion out of the back of the warehouse. In light of this general disposition, a flexitime fraud is its small, daily, individual expression. And the cost is not abstract. The Civil Service pay bill runs to roughly £15 billion a year. Headcount has grown by approximately a hundred and fifty thousand since 2016, with the deepest expansion in the policy and "leadership non-teacher" desk grades, the exact cohort the whistleblower says is gaming hardest. Every 50-day phantom holiday, on a senior salary, is around £20k of public money paid for nothing. The country has been told for years, under successive governments, that there is no fiscal room for the things the country actually wants, like policing, prosecutions, courts that sit, borders, doctors, dentists, because the public finances are too tight. Bollocks are they. You've got a whole parallel economy of piss-artist leave-taking running in Whitehall, and there'll be plenty more cash coming in to keep its subsidy even given this whistleblower's report. I don't for a second believe that no one senior saw it or knew about it, just as I don't believe that the rampant inequities in our police departments go unnoticed by whole legions of bystanders. But the bystanders are not arsed. That's why I say "Hooray for the whistleblower." Their life is going to be hell. They will be hugely unpopular. They will be described as bitter, disloyal, mentally ill, motivated by personal grievance, and unrepresentative of the dedicated public servants who go above and beyond. That is what these institutions always say when one of their own breaks ranks. It is what they said to Maggie Oliver about Rotherham, to Alan Bates about Horizon, to the survivors of the Letby ward, the Cumberlege report, and the Sussex maternity unit. The smothering of internal dissent is now part of what the British civil service does for a living. The actual public service is something it has subcontracted to itself, badly, in stolen office hours, from the kitchen table. I was the Civil Service comprehensively remade in this country, the only way such things are ever made, which is by changing the people and all the incentives under which they operate. These people have been on the public payroll for fifteen years and have produced nothing for which the public can be grateful. It's time to find out where the hours went, and dispense with those who are wasting them, along with our money.

Met Police apologises to Graham Linehan over Heathrow arrest – another victory for the @speechunion. telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/05/1…

🚨 Riley Gaines is NOT holding back: “At this point, I believe they’re just seeking a public humiliation ritual for the girls… It’s probably one of the most abusive things you can do to a young woman.” A biological male “swept” three jumping events at a California track meet, then the top female finishers were FORCED to share first-place medals and the highest podium step with him. This isn’t “inclusion.” This is psychological abuse and the systematic erasure of women’s sports.

Lard ass bakery bandit steals HALF a cake maker’s entire stock from her honesty-box shed without leaving a single penny Sabina Seidel, 39, from Spalding, Lincolnshire, opened her dream Treat Street Bake Shed in March 2026 using a simple honesty system with a QR code for card payments and a cash box. On 9 May, between 7:25pm and 8pm, a pony-tailed man in a red T-shirt calmly walked in, filled a plastic bag with 25 home-made cakes and cookies worth around £80, licked his lips, tried the cash box, and strolled out. Sabina, watching on her hidden CCTV, initially thought he was a customer paying and even thanked him as he left. She only realised the theft when she saw the open door and empty shelves. Lincolnshire Police are investigating and have confirmed no arrests have been made..yet

Joey Barton has a criminal record in Britain for tweeting. Six months in prison suspended for eighteen, 200 hours of labour, £23,000 in costs, and a two-year court order forbidding him from so much as naming three British media figures on any platform. He called Jeremy Vine a bike nonce. He posted a photoshop of two pundits as Fred and Rose West. They were insults following his criticism of their performance as sports commentators, nothing actually serious. They were his opinion of people he does not like. In a free country you block him and move on. You do not put him in front of a jury and threaten him with prison. Britain did. Police interviewed him, prosecutors charged him, a Crown Court jury convicted him, and a judge handed down a custodial sentence. For posts on X. This is Orwellian Britain in 2026. Barton has a big platform and can fight back in public. Most of the people these laws are turned on will not.

Tesco chief Ashwin Prasad said demand for “fresh healthy British home-grown food” had never been stronger among its customers. Yet… Tesco Rosedene Farms apples sounds like a quaint British farm…except the apples here are from France. It’s time to end the supermarket farmwashing that dupes shoppers into thinking they are buying British food, when instead, they are buying produce from overseas.

Dorset Police pushing fake news. This vile rapist is not ‘from Middlesex’. He is a Syrian asylum seeker who arrived in Britain in 2023. Why are our police forces lying to us?

The disgraced Pakistani Muslim mayor of London, who colluded with Keir Starmer to try and tarnish our Unite The Kingdom and the West rally in every way. Also sent these mass emails to Uni students ahead of our event. We get see everything you slippery little dipshit.

Dear @Spotify not loving your new app icon. Have had to move it off my front page and hide it away in a folder

Disgraced slaughterhouse, HARTSHEAD MEATS LTD, has been spotted making deliveries at a nearby SERVICE STATION. The premises in Mossley, Manchester, has been the subject of mass protests over illegal non-stun practices, including Kosher and Halal. So they’re making sneaky drops.

Oh .... dont share this photo you say ... dont show the people the yummy health milk from health grass feed cows. The most normal thing possible ran by hard working men and women of britian 🇬🇧 ..... what every you do dont share this post 😉

@BlondiieMama Only just 🤭

Update: John Lewis are going to arrange re-collection by DPD, who are less awful than Evri.

Hey @evri if you’ve collected my returns parcel this afternoon why the heck is it still here in my kitchen? @JohnLewisRetail you need to use a different courier 😒

🚨 Keir Starmer just BANNED me from entering the UK over a rally.... I wasn't even attending His desperate crackdown just got personal. But this is going to backfire spectacularly. Now the world is watching, and even more British patriots will head to London to rally with Tommy Robinson this weekend. And despite Starmer’s best efforts… Rebel News still got a journalist in. 👀 Follow the coverage at TommyReports.com

#Lichfield #Burntwood #Hammerwich area - keep an eye out for this white van, caught on camera stealing from our farm today - plates are false please RT to warn others 👍

PEACEFUL. PROUD. UNBREAKABLE. | My Urgent Message Before Saturday The world will be watching on Saturday. Please stay peaceful, stay disciplined, and do not give the media or the establishment what they want. No aggression. No masks. No excuses. Families, women, and children will be there. This is about showing strength through unity, discipline, and pride in our country. If provoked, smile and rise above it. Britain cannot afford to fail.

@AllisonPearson My mum was removed from a waiting list. Apparently they just " lost" all her x rays, letters and notes. Mysteriously "deleted" from the system. 4 years of waiting for a hip replacement.

I submitted my tax return to HMRC one day late. I was fined £100. And I didn't even owe them any tax! Angela Rayner tried to avoid paying £40,000 stamp duty for nearly a year and could have been fined £8,000 by the HMRC after she recently coughed up the money, (shortly after being gifted £50,000 from a refrigeration company for 'Office Expenses'). She wasn't fined a single penny. No fine. No penalty. No comeback whatsoever. Is it any wonder that us little folk are getting so pissed off with these freeloading, opportunistic, money grabbing, holier than thou, two faced charlatans?

You can block the speakers... ..but you can't block the people or the platform. On Saturday, we Unite The Kingdom and the West 🇬🇧
