Harry, Meghan’s Spare
Meghan Markle’s most insufferable, tone-deaf quotes. 1. “Thank you for asking, because not many people have asked if I’m OK.” 2. “I was the most trolled person in the entire world… every day for 10 years, I have been bullied and attacked.” 3. On Archie’s skin color: “There were concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born.” 4. South African cast member of The Lion King told her that when she married Harry, residents in his country "rejoiced in the streets the same we did when Mandela was freed from prison". 5. “Why would I give the very people that are calling my children the N-word a photo of my child…?” 6. Palm trees analogy: “One of the first things my husband saw… those two palm trees. See how they’re connected at the bottom? He goes, ‘My love, it’s us.’” 7. “You know I’m Sussex now” (correcting Mindy Kaling). 8. The “power of yet” parenting riff. 9. “I can’t believe I’m not getting paid for this.” 10. “I didn’t know much about him… I didn’t know who he was.” 11. “Service is universal.” 12. “I was never treated like a Black woman until I came to the UK.” 13. “Don’t give it five minutes if you’re not going to give it five years.” Yes, she actually said that….

Schon gewusst? Warum halten die Iren beim Stepptanz die Arme bewegungslos am Körper? Weil zur Zeit der englischen Besatzung das Tanzen in den Pubs verboten war, aber die Patrouillen es durch die Fenster so nicht bemerken konnten. Das hat man dann bis heute so beibehalten. 🇮🇪

@fantomastisch There was a more serious aspect with this standardising of steps. Old Irish dance was free form and expressive now unless you learnt the ‘correct’ steps you could not compete in competition. It’s only due to persistence of tradition in Gaeltacht areas that original form was saved

@fantomastisch I think that a load of balls..Irish dance steps were prescribed by garlic league post 1922. Jigs, reels, hornpipe, all had set steps in a regulated sequence. Look at séan nos dancing for comparison.

Thug Teen Collapses in Tears After Judge Slams No Bond for Cold-Blooded Murder This black 16-year-old killer screamed and fell apart like a weak coward in court when the judge denied bond and charged him as an adult. Sean Simpson, a gangster, gunned down innocent 16-year-old teen Zaquavious Dawkins in a drive-by while the boy ran a simple errand for his disabled mom. No more soft treatment for street thugs—real justice is here, and this black murderer is finally feeling the pain he caused. Lock him up for life.

@Carl_Portman @WilkieisBack66 I find it difficult to believe that it was done in secret . I’ve not seen any protests from local authorities but generally anything like this requires lots of paperwork re planning

John Simpson, your tweet on the Banksy statue is a masterclass in smug, out-of-touch BBC elitism that perfectly captures why so many Britons are fed up with people like you. Congratulations to you, sir, for once again revealing the chasm between your cloistered worldview and the country you claim to “make sense of.” You hail Banksy’s latest stunt, a suited figure blindly marching off a plinth with a flag over his face, planted amid monuments to Britain’s imperial and military past as “brilliant” “calmness and humour” in the face of “growing extremism.” Spare us the performative wit. What you dismiss as “extremism” is, in reality, patriotism, the raw, unapologetic love of Britain’s history, culture, and people that built the very landmarks your precious Banksy is mocking. It’s ordinary citizens who look at waves of mass immigration, no-go zones, grooming scandals, knife crime spikes, and the erasure of their heritage, and dare to say: enough. Not hatred. Not violence. Just the basic human instinct to preserve what their ancestors fought and died for. You, from your comfortable perch, sneer at that as dangerous radicalism. And “diversity”? The sacred cow you and your cohort worship? It’s precisely the fire stoking division, hatred, and the active dismantling of what was once coherent British culture. Parallel societies, demands for Sharia, suppressed speech, and the relentless rewriting of history aren’t “enrichment”, they’re fragmentation by design. Banksy’s statue isn’t clever satire; it’s the same tired, self-loathing trope, Britain bad, tradition embarrassing, national pride a joke. You lap it up because it flatters your class’s prejudices while the rest of the country lives with the consequences. This isn’t “humour,” John. It’s cultural vandalism dressed in irony, cheered by the same establishment that has spent decades hollowing out British identity. Westminster Council accepting this is no victory for free expression, it’s another surrender of public space to those who despise the nation it represents. Your desperate hope that it “stays” says everything, you’d rather a Banksy provocation endure than let working-class patriots keep their statues, their streets, their country. The growing “extremism” isn’t on the streets of Britain demanding borders and belonging. It’s in the minds of lifelong insiders like you, blind to the fire you’ve helped fan, arrogant enough to lecture the natives on their own extinction. History will remember this era not for Banksy’s stunts, but for the quiet fury of a people finally rejecting the John Simpsons of the world.
John Simpson@JohnSimpsonNews

Congratulations to Westminster Council for their acceptance of Banksy’s brilliant statue near Pall Mall. Let’s hope it stays — a welcome note of calmness and humour at a time of growing extremism.

This statue is the latest Banksy artwork. He's so trite and predictable, I'm surprised his stuff isn't sold as M&S cards.

‘Hope’ has gone off me Cheesy Wotsits, she prefers ‘Cheesy Pringles’ now - is it just me? Or is there a strange fascination listening to a dog eat crisps? - and yes, I do lick off all the salt first (if they have any in the first place) 😁

@RobLooseCannon In isolated rural communities which suffered badly in famine years, the Catholic Church had all but forgotten their ‘flock’. Many converted & later those who wished to reconvert had to pay + statement re how they were misled. Book; Spipers &Jumpers good source of info

There are few labels in our history that still evoke controversy like "souper." To be called one was not just an insult. It was a mark of damnation. During the Great Famine of 1845 to 1852, when starvation decimated our people, some of the most agonising decisions faced by Catholic families came ladled from a pot of soup. Souperism refers to the practice by which Protestant evangelical groups offered food, shelter, and education to the starving, with strings attached. Conversion, or at minimum, participation in Protestant religious instruction. To modern sensibilities it might seem almost silly. But to people who believed, with absolute conviction, that their eternal soul and those of their children were at stake, it was a matter of life, death, and what came after. And even when the aid came without conditions, the rumour was enough. It didn't matter whether the soup came with a Bible or not. The fear that it might was enough to keep families away. It's heartbreaking to imagine the dilemma. A barefoot child, belly distended from hunger, stands outside a mission school where warm meat soup bubbles on a stove inside. The smell is maddening. Lessons are conducted in English, Catholic prayers and the Irish language are banned. The family is torn. Take the soup and survive. But at what cost? The neighbours might call them jumpers, cat breacs, traitors. Would they be condemned to Hell, cut off from their own people for eternity? And if they accepted the meal, they were said to have taken the soup. One of the most notorious figures in this story was Reverend Edward Nangle, founder of the Achill Mission Colony. In the 1830s, before the blight blackened the fields, he had already established schools where Protestant scripture was the curriculum. When famine struck, he fed the children too, and demand for places skyrocketed. Some accused him of buying souls with broth. Others argued he simply chose to feed the children already in his care. Not all soup was poisoned with ideology. Many Anglicans, including the Archbishop of Dublin, Richard Whately, openly condemned proselytising to the desperate. The Quakers ran soup kitchens with no strings attached and are remembered fondly to this day. They fed the starving without condition, and more importantly, without humiliation. Still, the damage was done. Even soup containing meat, served on Fridays when Catholic observance forbade it, was read as an assault on faith. Priests denounced souperism from the pulpit. In some cases, British soldiers had to protect converts from violent reprisals. The spiritual weaponisation of hunger had consequences that outlasted the hunger itself. Historians now largely agree that actual souperism was rarer in practice. The fear was entirely real enough though. By the early twentieth century, the word souper had taken on new and sometimes ironic meanings, applied to any perceived betrayal of Catholic or nationalist identity.

7 années à te nourrir sans avoir le droit de te toucher. À te donner du lait chaud en hiver, une niche pour te protéger... aujourd'hui tu es venue agoniser devant ma porte. tu es venue mourir chez moi, et toute ma reconnaissance à ma Vétérinaire qui t'a reçue en urgence pour t'épargner les heures de souffrance qui t'attendais. personne ne s'intéressera à ce post, mais c'est le dernier hommage pour toi, venue au delà de la souffrance, m'accorder ta confiance ultime.

@leshaami I’m absolutely sure that had my mother had access to contraception or abortion that I would not exist. By logical extension therefore, if I dont exist how can I care or have opinion

Hi, so the woman who carried and gave birth to me was 13 years old, celebrated her 14th birthday only days before I was born. I should’ve been aborted. It’s really terrible that she was made to carry and birth a baby while she was a child herself. Am I happy to be alive? Yes. Absolutely. Very happy to be here. Would I be mad had I been aborted? No, I wouldn’t exist, I wouldn’t feel anything. I shouldn’t exist. She was a child. The lives of girls/women are more valuable than fetuses.

Harry has found a home! Ours… We successfully foster “failed” After losing Blu, the house felt a little quieter and a lot heavier. Harry walked right in with his constant happy tail, his need to be right by your side, and so much love to give. He has helped fill the quiet (and then some). Welcome home, Happy Harry🐾 Thank you @southeastgsp for bringing us together!
