🚨DICTATORIAL POWER GRAB EXPOSED: UK SPEAKER CALLS FOR TOTAL MISINFORMATION BAN AND URGES GOVERNMENT TO CENSOR SOCIAL MEDIA WORLDWIDE! 💬🚫
This Clip Of Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle Talking About Social Media Is Quite Revealing And What He Is Suggesting Is Extremely Authoritarian And Orwellian 🤨
In this eye-opening interview, Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle starts by correctly stating that threats, incitement to riots, and suggestions to attack others have no place online.
However, he quickly escalates into dangerous territory by lumping in "misinformation" and declaring that the fact is, misinformation is dangerous and no misinformation should be allowed on any social media platform.
He issues a direct warning to nations like the US, insisting it does not matter what country you are in because misinformation is dangerous.
Hoyle stresses that everything posted must be factual and correct, or else the government needs to think long and hard about new laws and what bill it will push through Parliament to control social media.
This broad call for a blanket ban on anything deemed "misinformation" reeks of Orwellian censorship, handing authorities the power to decide truth while silencing dissent.
Free speech is once again under threat.
This is not a black problem, children do not generally behave like this in Ethiopia. However, it would be foolish to ignore the fact that the majority of youths in Clapham's disorder seem to be black. If we're too afraid to ask why this started, we'll never find out how it stops.

Children smashing up shops in broad daylight, stealing and even filming themselves doing it as if it were a game, is a much bigger problem than is being recognised. This is a total collapse of consequences.
To those making snide comments about race or black kids - you do not see scenes like this in Lagos or Nairobi. Not because the children there are different, but because actions have consequences. There are clear boundaries. Parents, communities, and the authorities do not wring their hands or look the other way.
Here, we have created a culture where too many young people believe they can do what they like and nothing will happen. That is the problem.
And we should be honest about where that leads. If a child loots a shop today, films it for social media, and faces no real consequence, they are going to do much worse tomorrow.
This is why under my leadership Conservatives are focusing on ENFORCEMENT, not just making more and more rules.
Our Take Back Our Streets Campaign is about getting 10,000 more police officers, immediate justice and immediate punishment. But let’s be honest, this is not just a policing issue. It is a failure of authority at every level.
Parents need to know where their children are and what they are doing. Discipline should start at home, not in a courtroom.
We have also weakened the system around them. Deterrence is the backbone of criminal justice. Labour have changed the law so anyone receiving a sentence under 12 months will automatically walk free, instead receiving a suspended sentence. When people believe offences like this will not lead to meaningful punishment, we should not be surprised when more of it happens. You get more of what you tolerate.
It’s not like we haven’t been here before. In 2011, when riots spread, the Conservative response was swift and visible. People saw consequences. And behaviour rapidly changed. That is what is missing now.
This all comes down to fairness. Law-abiding people should not feel like fools while gangs smash and grab without consequence. The sad truth is the communities most damaged by this behaviour are often the very ones these young people come from.
Only one approach will fix this: clear rules, real consequences, and the confidence to enforce them.
It’s time to Take Back Our Streets and bring back a culture of enforcement.
Restore Britain statement on the May elections.
The Restore Britain team have consulted with hundreds of members all over the country about how we should approach the May elections, considering we have only been officially registered as a political party for twelve days. The elections take place in 36 days.
I am going to be entirely honest with you all, unusual for a politician I understand - none of the usual spin or twisting.
We are simply not ready to field thousands of qualified candidates - all over England, with Wales and Scotland included.
We could. We have had the offers and we certainly have the ability to campaign.
But that would be wrong.
I am not going to present to the British people thousands of candidates who have not been properly vetted, interviewed or considered. That would be irresponsible and rash. We’ve seen what happens when new parties do that, and the voters get let down.
Our priority has been on establishing local branches, we have spoken to hundreds and hundreds of amazing volunteers. Local infrastructure is forming all over Britain. Restore Britain’s small team have done in weeks what it has taken other parties years to achieve. It has been remarkable, and I want to personally thank them.
Dozens of local branch meetings have taken place already, with more happening every day. If you haven’t already heard about a local event, you will soon. Please be patient and understand the scale of the logistical task our team are dealing with - almost 20,000 people have volunteered to actively help in every corner of Britain. A national billboard campaign has been running, with hundreds of thousands of leaflets already delivered. 124,000 members. More than the Tories and double the Lib Dems, polling at 8% nationally.
It is all history in the making.
But to properly process thousands of candidates on top of that is not logistically possible in such a short period of time, and I do not want to be in a position where we have individuals elected who do not understand the important responsibilities of local government.
Paper candidates. Those with questionable histories. Opportunist careerists. Individuals who have no interest in working hard. Some even simply after the money. I do not want to present them to the British people. Look at Reform’s track record following its desperation to stand candidates - promising tax cuts, then hiking people’s council tax bills. A staggering 9% in one Reform council. 9%. Families cannot afford it. It is morally wrong, and I want no repeat of it.
Let’s learn from their mistakes, not our own.
We are going to do this right. Where we stand, we will aim to win. Where we win, we will properly represent those residents. We will put forward the right people, with the right ideas, and the right principles.
In Great Yarmouth, my constituency, we have the infrastructure to do that. We have been working on it for many months. We are prepared.
There are ten elections in Great Yarmouth - nine county council seats, and one borough council by-election. Those are the only elections we will be contesting in May.
The plan is straightforward.
Our aim is to sweep away the rotten political establishment.
Decimate the Tories, Reform and Labour in Great Yarmouth.
Show the rest of the country that it can be done. Set an example. Send a message.
Then take that into the rest of 2026, and the elections in 2027 where we will aim to stand qualified candidates in every seat across Britain.
Work has already started on this - potential candidates are already being contacted.
In the meantime, I need your help. We need your help.
Come to Great Yarmouth and help the campaign.
The most important day is May 7th. There are also two major action days on April 18th, and May 2nd.
I want to see hundreds and hundreds of Restore Britain members descending on Great Yarmouth to help us make history.
Teams will be out every single day between April 7th and the election, with a bigger presence out on Saturdays. If you can make one trip to Great Yarmouth between now and the election, that would be sincerely appreciated.
Particularly on May 7th.
We are running the most professional local election campaign Britain has ever seen, but we need your help.
If you are planning to make the trip, please register through the link below so we can track numbers.

We have just over five weeks to make history.
To those asking how to vote in their own local election - my advice is this.
Examine the options. Look at who has taken the care to explore real local issues that impact your community. Support who you think is best to deliver for your family, your road, your village, your town.
Next year, that option will be Restore Britain. But in this one set of elections, we are taking a targeted and concentrated approach.
Because restoring Britain starts in Great Yarmouth, then we take it national.
That’s the plan.
I hope you will help us deliver that.

Security guard caught with £65,000 drugs stash jailed after police raid
Mohammed Waheed, 23, has been jailed after officers uncovered a major stash of drugs and cash at his flat in Preston.
Police found:
115g of cocaine worth £34,000+
Nearly 400g of cannabis
Over £32,000 in cash
Scales and a burner phone linked to dealing
The former Fishergate Centre security guard admitted supplying Class A and B drugs and possessing criminal property.
A judge said the amount of cash and drugs showed “significant involvement” in dealing, despite Waheed claiming he was struggling with addiction at the time.
He has now been sentenced to 30 months in prison.
