Current rule: Every post I see from an elected MP or political commentator against the "Brit card" gets a like and a repost. Whether your political views typically align with mine or not is irrelevant. We either stand against this together or not at all.

@LeeHurstComic They'd probably arrest them on trumpeted up charges

I guess so few have English as their first language in London these days that there’s no need for spell check anymore.

@Meg_InfnlMachin @LisaBritton And it felt outdated at the time too. As a teenager when the Spice Girls came on the scene I recall saying "Who's telling you that you can't do any of this?" It was my mother's generation that blazed a trail for the generations that followed.

@LisaBritton These people act as if girl power wasn’t a whole movement in the 90s-2000s.

The gaslighting is crazy. As a child in the 90s and into 2000s, we were supported and encouraged in every way. Not only were we told we could do anything, but we should do everything. The amount of resources and help for us seemed limitless. It was boys who were belittled, dismissed and put on the back burner. That’s why we have a crisis today.

@afneil @boot15_vu Didn't he pledge to introduce PR too? Where's that then?

Reports that Keir Starmer to appoint Sadiq Khan to House of Lords. Why does a socialist PM still make people ‘lords’ in 2026? Why does a socialist Mayor even think of accepting? Labour 2024 manifesto promised to ‘replace’ the Lords with a ‘more representative second chamber.’ What happened to that pledge? Labour has a massive majority and should be able to push through long-overdue radical reform. Or just abolish it. But like every PM before him Starmer has found it convenient to keep the Lords largely as it is (bar getting rid of hereditaries, a modest change). In this case ‘elevating’ Khan to remove him as a leadership threat.

@Poppy_yyyyyyyy That's impressive. Were they Cadbury's or Mars?

My mum is 74 and cycled over 100km today. I am not 74 and I ate two Easter eggs today.

@Shaw089 @onlineinsane No, I added the 5 then added the 20. That's the beauty of maths, there are so many different routes to the same destination As a general rule, people calling anyone who disagrees with something "boomers" are insufferable dickheads. You're clearly not an exception to that rule.

Do 78+25 in your head I guarantee you dropped the 3, did 75+25 to make 100, and then added the 3 That's all common core is, teaching kids mental math shortcuts, they just represent it poorly sometimes visually Boomers really need to stop clutching their pearls and pretending that putting 78 on top of 25, and then adding 5+8 to make 13, carrying the one, and then adding 2+7 to make 9, and then adding the 1 is somehow superior, it isn't. It's slow and it's gay and you're old.

@TouchlineX @TheSun Forest should join them. In fact all the other clubs should join them as this punishment undermines the sporting integrity of the league and weakens the brand.

🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Everton are considering taking legal action against the Premier League after Chelsea escaped a points deduction. In 2023/24, Everton were docked 8 points following two breaches, while Chelsea is getting away with a fine. — @TheSun

Interviewer: “Do you ever think about the consequences of rape?” Illegal migrant: “Like, if she screams and wakes someone up?” Interviewer: “No, I’m talking about the girl.” Illegal migrant: “Yeah. When we rape her we might get an STD.” THIS IS WHAT’S COMING TO THE WEST.

@AshleyJukes1 @TotalVilla_ @TomCollomosse I'm old enough to remember when replica shirts didn't have the sponsors on them and fans (mostly kids) wanted them on so that their shirts looked like the players 2/2

@AshleyJukes1 @TotalVilla_ @TomCollomosse Glad to hear you have it under control. I think fans should have the option to buy the shirt without the sponsor on it but I think that should be universal, not just gambling. For example if it's a credit card company and you don't approve of their interest rates 1/2

Like many clubs, Aston Villa are yet to find a replacement front of shirt sponsor for next season when the ban on gambling firms come in. There is an acceptance that a new deal may not match Betano’s, which is said to be worth up to £20m per year 💰 ✍️ - [@TomCollomosse] #avfc

@AshleyJukes1 @TotalVilla_ @TomCollomosse That's not to say that gambling advertising isn't problematic in other ways. I complained about an ad years ago because it claimed a man enjoyed watching the football more when he gambled on it despite never betting on sports myself. I just don't think words on shirts matter.

@AshleyJukes1 @TotalVilla_ @TomCollomosse If a word on a shirt causes you to gamble then that's a "you" problem. I've struggled with compulsive eating all my life yet I'm perfectly capable of watching The Hundred without stuffing my face with KP snacks.

@AshleyJukes1 @TotalVilla_ @TomCollomosse It's not true, they're just video screens. Betano are one of the Europa League sponsors uefa.com/partners/

@dalepharrell @TotalVilla_ @TomCollomosse Not sure if it's true... But heard they use augmented reality to display different sponsors depending on where the game is being shown...

The moment you finally realise you’re leading the most authoritarian government in our country’s history: 1️⃣ Introducing an official definition of “anti-Muslim hostility” that silences legitimate criticism of religion — 18 years after Parliament abolished such laws. 2️⃣ Removing the right of most defendants to have a jury trial, in the biggest assault on English liberty in over 800 years. 3️⃣ Requiring pub landlords to monitor customers’ private conversations to protect staff from remarks, comments, or jokes they may find “offensive”. 4️⃣ Clamping down on lawful social media posts, arresting an Irish comedian for gender-critical tweets and even threatening to ban access to X in the UK. It’s not a great look, is it, Prime Minister…

🚨DERANGED: RAF Illegally BLOCKED 160+ White Male Pilots to Boost Diversity — MoD Confirms “This is one of the craziest decisions ever made by any branch of the British state ever!” The RAF literally paused hiring white men, preferring to recruit NO ONE over a qualified white male pilot, all to hit woke diversity quotas for women & ethnic minorities. A senior female recruitment officer resigned in protest, calling it illegal & immoral. MoD inquiry confirmed: it WAS unlawful positive discrimination. Over 160 male pilots had training suspended. 31 got compensation. This is deranged. Putting ideology before competence doesn’t make our military stronger, it puts national security at risk.

Having publicly executed a 19 year old member of the country’s national wrestling team last week, two more scheduled executions of young lives with bright futures urgently highlight - during a war - the mentality of a regime that prioritises executions over protecting their own population. While keeping the country under a digital blackout, itself a crime against humanity. A regime that parades teenagers on national television to humiliate them and accuse them of crimes they’ve not even heard of. And all because they went out on a protest. This is what the people of Iran have been dealing with for decades. #StopExecutionsInIran #ShervinBagherian #PeyvandNaeimi

The Islamic regime has confirmed the death-sentence of 18 year old Melika Azizi was carried earlier today. Melika was arrested in January 2026 during nation-wide protests and charged with "moharebeh" (waging war against god for allegedly burning Islamic regime symbols. In court, Melika told the judge: "You let so many young people bleed. How can I remain silent? I don't care just kill me" She was a brave young lady!

@MattCas04807118 @ramonagusta

What the actual feck!! 🤬🤬 Drives like a maniac when high, smashes his car up and kills the lady who got off a bus to see if he was ok!!!🤬🤬 He laughs about it during his police interview. A poor innocent lady died and this isn’t huge news, our society is sick!

Britain is 110% self-sufficient in lamb. Let that sink in for a moment. Not "pretty good." Not "mostly fine." One hundred and ten percent. We grow more than we eat and export the rest. We have done this on permanent upland pasture that cannot be used for anything else, managed by farmers whose families have worked the same ground for generations, using animals that have been optimised for these conditions over centuries. 85% self-sufficient in beef. 100% in milk. 90% in eggs. The animal products on your plate, if you're eating in Britain, are almost certainly British. The supply chain is: farm, abattoir, butcher or supermarket. Measured in miles. Sometimes in tens of miles. Now. Your January strawberries are from Egypt. Your year-round peppers are from Spain or Morocco. Your salad leaves are from Israel in winter. Your green beans come from Kenya. Your blueberries are from Peru or Chile. They travel by refrigerated air freight, which is roughly fifty times more carbon-intensive per kilogram than road transport, to sit in a plastic clam shell next to a small flag and the word "fresh." The environmental argument against British animal products is not an environmental argument. It is a geography argument made by people who have not checked where their food comes from. Check where your food comes from.

@Alonso_GD The "Imply old people are easily mislead by social media" schtick might work with random accounts, it's not getting you anywhere with John fucking Cleese

@Alonso_GD He co-wrote Life of Brian 47 years ago dickhead. The man has forgotten more about religious fundamentalism than you will ever know.

John Cleese is a good example of how social media can quickly radicalise people without the necessary skillset to factcheck it
