My 92 year old grandad went to vote today in Gorton, and when he got to the polling station the attendants asked where he’s from. “I’m English!” He said. He was immediately arrested. “Just for saying I’m English!?” he shouted out, as he was dragged away from the polling station.

🐝From Corn Laws, Cobden & Bright, to Andy Burnham and 21st Century Growth, join us to ask: “What is Manchesterism?” 🗽A term associated with the 19th century free trade movement, now claimed by a school of social democracy - what is the way forward for broken Britain?👇

In the 80s and 90s, American and British pop culture was completely intertwined. Half our favorite singers and bands were English. Most of our movie stars. So much of our culture was shared. We loved their monarchy almost as much as they did. The gap between us and them was thin. Thanks to globalism and immigration, the gap has widened into an unbridgeable chasm. I can't think of a single British TV show that anyone here watches. Pop music? Charlie XCX maybe, and Lorde. Movie stars? I mean, we still have Christian Bale I guess. But there used to be so much. I feel nothing but disgust and alienation now when I think of the UK, even though my father was born there to his English mother. They took a lot from us, but this one is sort of overlooked.

Britain needs nuclear power. Our nuclear projects are the most expensive in the world and among the slowest. Regulators and industry are paralysed by risk aversion. This can change. For Britain to prosper, it must. Earlier this year, the Prime Minister appointed me to lead a Taskforce to set out a path to getting affordable, fast nuclear power Britain. Our final report today sets out 47 recommendations, among them: - Creating a one-stop shop for nuclear approvals, to end the regulatory merry-go-round that delays projects at the moment. - Simplifying environmental rules to avoid extreme outcomes like Hinkley Point C spending £700m on systems to protect one salmon every ten years, while enhancing nuclear's impact on nature. - Limiting the ability of spurious legal challenges to delay nuclear projects, which adds huge cost and delay throughout the supply chain. - Approving fleets of reactors, so that Britain’s nuclear industry can benefit from certainty and economies of scale. - Directing regulators to factor in cost to their behaviour, and changing their culture to allow building cheaply, quickly and safely. - Changing the culture of the nuclear industry to end gold-plating and focus on efficient, safe delivery. If the government adopts our report in full, it will send a signal to investors that it is serious about pro-growth reform and taking on vested interests for the public good. A thriving British nuclear industry producing abundant, affordable energy would be good for jobs, good for manufacturing, good for the climate, and good for the cost of living. And it could enable Britain to become an AI and technology superpower. Britain can be a world leader in this new Industrial Revolution, but only if it has the energy to power it. Our report is bold, but balanced. Our recommendations, taken together and properly implemented, will forge a clear path for stronger economic growth through improved productivity and innovation. This is a prize worth fighting for. gov.uk/government/pub…

🕊️Aldina Jahić, 1993-2025 Today we mourn. Aldina was murdered in a senseless act by a man she should have been able to trust. This evil act has robbed a talented young woman of her life, a family of a daughter, and many across Europe of a cherished friend, and colleague.

@evmazu @LPINorg The only people who would have a problem with either of these images are people who don't believe in self ownership. People who don't believe in self ownership should be actively driven away.

@LPINorg If you understand why posting the below doctored image is a bad idea (divisive and actively drives people away from LP), you'll understand why posting a rainbow version is just as bad. Stick w/ "don't tread on anyone", don't brand it gay, Christian, atheist or otherwise

The exercise of individual rights by one person doesn't interfere with the rights of any other person. #PrideMonth is a great time to recognize this. So is every other month. Since 1971, the Libertarian Party has advocated for the rights of ALL people.

@anarchist_frodo @AncapAir Has the random guy been invited by one of the homeowners? Or do you mean 'random' as in, just a hiker/rambler?

@AncapAir can you explain why in the below picture i would be violating the NAP if I was the guards? I understand that in ancapistan such an arrangement is unlikely, but it is not impossible.
