People should be allowed to change their minds when new information comes along: it's the sign of mature thinking and shouldn't be ridiculed.

I was in Wales today where beautiful countryside, prime grazing land, is being covered in giant windmills twice the height of Big Ben. Each propeller bigger than a jumbo jet. The “green jobs” being created are in China. It’s corrupt, toxic and evil.

Starmer and Lammy have suspended @KarlTurnerMP from the Parliamentary Labour Party over his “recent conduct”. Turner — a former Shadow Attorney General and barrister — has been a leading voice on the Labour backbenches opposing the Government’s sinister plan to curb the right to trial by jury. Under proposals from Justice Secretary David Lammy, defendants facing a maximum sentence of less than three years would lose the right to a jury trial. Instead, their cases would be heard in a judge-only court or by magistrates. The Government has acted in bad faith. In a last-ditch attempt to avoid an embarrassing rebellion at the second reading of the Courts and Tribunals Bill, Lammy offered Turner representation for rebels on the Bill committee in exchange for abstaining. Both of Turner’s nominees — Stella Creasy and Rachael Maskell — were rejected. Turner said: “I will not stand back from speaking truth to power when it matters. Jury trials are a cornerstone of our democracy and a vital safeguard in our justice system.” He added that Lammy’s plan is “unworkable, ill-conceived and not supported by any evidence”, and called it “fundamentally dishonest” to suggest juries are responsible for court backlogs in Britain. This is an increasingly authoritarian Government that has lost its way. Starmer appears intolerant of legitimate criticism, and is seeking to silence dissent. Shameful. Read more below 👇

England — Egyptian asylum seekers Karin al-Danasurt (left) and Ibrahim Alshafe (right) are currently on trial at Lewes Crown Court in Hove for their alleged role in the gang r—pe of a woman on a beach in Brighton. A third suspect, an Iranian, is also on trial. al-Danasurt said through an Arabic translator that he didn't understand the difference between sex and r—pe. The migrants arrived in the UK via small boats from continental Europe in 2024 and 2025. They've been provided with taxpayer-funded accommodation in a hotel. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

My son was born at 34 weeks. I held him in my single hand and after a two week precautionary stay in special care, he’s now a thriving, fit and healthy little boy. Killing a baby at 34 weeks is murder.
Anna Lulis@annamlulis

This is what a 34 week old baby looks like outside the womb. The UK just voted in favor of killing an unborn child at this age. For no reason, just because someone wants to. They call it “reproductive rights” because they refuse to call it what it is: murder.

@AllisonPearson It's so frustrating how few people understand what's happening. Also hard to know how to stop it. Wrote to my MP before the vote: he said he'd listen to the arguments. I was impressed that he then voted against it. Beyond that, not sure what to do. People don't want to discuss it
