Noontide Demon

@TezzaLap @CrimeLdn The first correct answer!

@NoontideDaemon @CrimeLdn No, but every job needs a bit of fun otherwise what's the point?

Armed police at St. James Park tube station

@MikeyMagic @CrimeLdn Now, if you'd said they were nonplussed into paralysis by the rudeness of it, that I could understand.

@NoontideDaemon @CrimeLdn Yes. The shock and awe effect causes temporary paralysis. Armed police use these military tactics to overwhelm their target.

@Yorkshire_Woman @CrimeLdn You see? Was that so difficult?

@NoontideDaemon @CrimeLdn "Hello (naughty person) please get down on the floor please, please, pretty please.............."

@CrimeLdn Manners cost you nothing, and if you're going to shove an HK MP5 up someone's nose, you've already made your point.

@CrimeLdn Was the swearing necessary?

@Artemisfornow How much of what they do can be replaced right now with AI and Capita? Or in three years? It's a high-risk strategy for them.

Civil servants at WEFminster, running quangos and following a globalist agenda, now plan to subvert democracy by attempting to destroy a Reform government, with what their unions call an ‘Industrial defence strategy’ Paralysing the country with strikes in order to stop Reform doing what they promise the people. And they think they are the good guys ‼️

@FT One day you'll understand; it was the demos that was stable, not the government.

Once the model of stable government, Britain has had six PMs in the past 10 years — and is in the grip of yet another leadership crisis. Anthony Seldon asks what went wrong. Read The Weekend Essay in full here: ft.trib.al/ZskSLQk

@Waqas_Inayat1 @elonmusk Oh well, that's alright then. Because being arrested and charged isn't in the least traumatic, especially for something as bullshit as exercising your natural right to free speech.

@elonmusk Elon said thousands imprisoned for social media posts not true ✅ Arrests: ~10,000–12,000 a year (that’s the “thousands” figure) ✅ Prosecutions: ~1,100–1,200 ✅ Actual prison sentences: only 130..140 per year Most arrests result in no jail time.. 🤔🤔

Free the political prisoners in Britain!

@CinemaTweets1 Maturity is knowing that the sheriff was 100% right about Rambo.

DEVELOPING: James Franco is joining the cast of the Rambo prequel film. Set years before the events of 1982's First Blood, Franco is not Rambo, but rather the heavy. Noah Centineo will walk in Stallone’s footsteps as John Rambo. Stallone was nearly perfect here- hard to recreate.

@Keir_Starmer Mere political failure and ignominy aren't a good enough fate for you. There should be trials, like the soldiers you've persecuted.

Today the voices of division will be loud. They don't speak for the country I know, one that belongs to all of us. That's our Britain. A Britain worth fighting for. lbc.co.uk/article/keir-s…

@elonmusk @HomerPavlos Maybe there should be an X Studios, and you could commission your own content?

@HomerPavlos Accurate

Chris Nolan is a complicated man. He bowed to a dying agenda. He chose to worship it and show disrespect toward the Greeks. He could have created a masterpiece. Instead, he chose to go woke and destroy his career. Woke Hollywood is dead, and Nolan will be remembered as a weak man

@Variety I fervently pray that one day we, as a species, will evolve beyond listening to stupid bitch actresses.

Sandra Hüller on if she "feels the guilt" of Germany's past: "Yes, I feel the guilt every day. And also I never get bored of it, to feel the guilt because it's necessary to act right." variety.com/2026/film/fest…

Just walking back after lunch through my local park, and saw this. Pretty sure it was kids, rather than hardened Tibetan nationalists, but still utterly disgusting behaviour (and yes, me and my CCP handler scuffed it up before leaving).

@FeserEdward I'm not especially invested in this (f*** them both), but since I keep hearing this argument, can you tell us what a 'proportional' response would have been? Maybe Hamas giving up 1500 of its own citizens to be raped and killed? Would you just have shrugged and said "fair enough"

Just as Hiroshima and Nagasaki were grotesquely out of proportion to the evil of the Pearl Harbor attack, what was done to Gaza is grotesquely out of proportion to the evil of the October 7 attack. What begins as a just cause is often corrupted by war’s self-righteous bloodlust.

@DailyGondor "How would you feel if you didn't have a second breakfast?" "Why would I do that?"

“Changing consumer habits” to blame for the decline of the second breakfast culture.

@MythoYookay Even if it was the act of a solitary retard (quite likely), not one other muslim will apologise, offer to clean it off, pay for the cleaning or condemn it.

@BrianRoemmele The way to sell domestic robots is to make them look like plush toys. It'll solve the uncannyness problem.

It’s Happening…

@bo66ie29 It's unlikely an architect was involved in making that house. Buildings of that period were made by spec developers from massive catalogues of pre-fabricated parts.

Dear Architects, what’s preventing you from designing new builds that look like this?

@T99465975 @bo66ie29 That's interesting. Houses like the OP were put together by spec builders from catalogues of parts. William Morris thundered about the lack of craftsmanship of these houses. Perhaps the real problem is that no one is supplying trad building elements at scale.

Can still be done, I still have projects like that. But they are getting fewer and fewer. The deterance is a triple wammy, cost, time, craftsmenship. This type of work takes longer, clients want shorter. This type of work requires a skilled labor force, which is dwindling by the day. This type of work cost more, clients want cheaper.

@PolitlcsUK What an elephant trap. The easy answer is the electorate told you to get Brexit done, you refused, this was the result.

🚨 WATCH: Keir Starmer says Nigel Farage is not "just a grifter, he is a chancer" "He said Brexit would make us richer... wrong... he said it would reduce migration... wrong... he took Britain for a ride, and unlike the Tories, he just fled the scene"
