Thousands are coming to London on Saturday for Unite the Kingdom — likely the biggest march yet. And what’s the response? The Met shuts pubs across Westminster. An entire area of London effectively locked down because too many people might gather and speak freely. Ordinary businesses lose money. Ordinary people get treated like a problem. Funny how ‘freedom to protest’ only seems to apply when the government agrees with you.

@MartinDaubney FFS!

Here in Westminster I’ve learned tonight ALL the pubs will be closed for the Unite The Kingdom march Landlords tell me there has been “significant pressure” from the Met Police

How do you slit the throat of a coffee bean?

@ThatAlexWoman God help us all.

I'd put money on Miliband replacing Starmer Bleak.

@leahpugh1 Should be ‘boils’, obviously.

@leahpugh1 I hope so, it is just the duplicity of it. Books my blood.

So, the Energy Independence Bill announced in the King’s Speech actually means that the granting of new oil licenses in the North Sea will be illegal. Duplicitous little weasel.

I am trying to follow people back but keeping getting ‘client error’. Sorry!

@I_amMukhtar They are not far right. Stop lazily flinging around that trope.

The government has so far blocked seven far-right individuals from entering the UK to attend Tommy Robinson’s march: Joey Mannarino Valentina Gomez Eva Vlaardingerbroek Ada Lluch Dominik Tarczyński Filip Dewinter Don Keith

@kennygfrederick Ha ha ha.

The whole country does not want him to go actually! Quite the reverse! We want him to stay and continuing to lead us out of the mess Tories left us in! #TenYearKeir

@MirabelTweets1 @NorthantsPolice Enabler.

Extremist Lucy Connolly has deleted a post calling Keir Starmer a “child rapist” Not that he covered up for a child rapist or defended a child rapist But that HE is a child rapist. With zero evidence. I suspect she may be in breach of her bail conditions @NorthantsPolice

@ReemAmirIbrahim Come on Reem, you are better than this. You know that this is the Home Office banning people from speaking at the Unite the Kingdom March. They have banned people like @EvaVlaar

Really funny when people who want super-strong borders are upset when a country has a border that keeps them out.

@timetoshine1234 Where on earth did you get this crap from?

Nigel Farage government. We get: Putin. No NHS. Heath poverty. Crashed economy. No workers rights. No maternity pay. No sick pay. No holiday pay. No right to strike. ICE fascists. We ALL lose. Nigel Farage is a grave dangerous to our democracy and national security.

@implausibleblog Not a gift.

Out of curiosity, why is there so much pressure on Starmer to resign But no pressure on Nigel Farage who took a £5,000,000 gift from a foreign billionaire and coincidentally started calling for the very thing the foreign billionaire wants for the UK, crypto deregulation?

@MikeHolden42 No, he didn’t.

NIGEL FARAGE TOOK A £5M BRIBE FOR FUCK'S ACTUAL SAKE!!!!

@Malcolm1818 @ZackPolanski We don’t want diverse change. If there was an indigenous tribe being taken over by a completely different culture, people would be up in arms. Why is ok for that to happen here?

Zoe represents the future of British politics. A future of hope not fear. A future where diversity and social change are seen as opportunities for improvement rather than things to be frightened by.

@DaddyCoffee73 @Keir_Starmer Ha, good one.

Labour didn’t lose council seats because of @Keir_Starmer’s leadership… They lost seats because there’s a pernicious fascist cancer infecting public discourse and giving simplistic solutions to people that would never normally vote in local elections

@thelefttake I care because he wants to bring in a system to be able to go into your bank account to reclaim money from unpaid tax. Hypocrisy.

Guys, nobody cares that Zack Polanski didn’t pay council tax on a boat he lived on from time to time. Nobody even knows you’re meant to pay council tax on a boat. Get a grip.

Rumour has it, Starmer is in the Downing Street Bunker with a korma and beer, SpAds running around like mice… could it be that ‘The end is nigh’?

A new Science Advances study shows offshore wind turbines actually warm the sea surface. Spikes near as much as one degree Celsius, which is as large as natural summer variability. Turbines slow the wind, explains the study. This weakens mixing, shuts down upwelling, and in turn traps heat at the surface. The warming appears within days and spreads tens of kilometers from the wind farm. These warm waters then heat the air above, creating extra upward heat flux and a more unstable boundary layer. Stack this onto bird kills, sediment disruption, underwater noise and microplastic shedding, and the picture is clear: Offshore wind isn't solving an environmental problem, it's becoming one.
