Henri Bergson’s appendix 🇬🇧🇫🇷

Ex Barrister, BBC broadcast journalist and producer. Released from 'editorial policy' - i can speak my mind. Trainee broom handle.


I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.

Men who harass women in public must face the consequences. I welcome the Met’s introduction of on the spot fines for catcalling and sexualised remarks. standard.co.uk/news/crime/cat…

The British state cannot even deport Pakistani paedophile rapists. We are being humiliated.


Star Trek actors George Takei and Wil Wheaton attack Dwayne Johnson for saying he isn't going to speak out on politics. George Takei on Threads: "Silence is complicity." Wil Wheaton in reply: "So disappointing to find out he is such a coward." Is this why no one respects Takei and Wheaton?


3 blacks attack a drunk white kid in Birmingham, the female police officer comes in to protect the violent blacks and arrest the white kid Absolutely disgusting the way white people are treated in England (@KnockoutAudit)


I've decided to leave this platform and my Department will too. A platform originally designed for free speech and expression now favours abuse and misinformation over meaningful debate. It isn't healthy for our democracy or our communities and I don’t want to support it.








We should stop using the term 'Net Zero'.....


Twana Jamal made an estimated £4 million a year from people smuggling and served 5 years in a French 🇫🇷 prison. He owns loads of vape type businesses in Britain 🇬🇧 and we are considering his application for asylum.


Rory Sutherland nails a quiet injustice that’s growing fast. You can work insanely hard for 30 years, climb to the top… yet still live in mediocrity because your parents never owned a house in a good area. Meanwhile, your junior colleagues inherit property from parents in Kensington or Surbiton and cruise through life with houses, wealth, and freedom. The system taxes earned income heavily but barely touches inherited wealth, property gains, and pensions. Economic models hide the problem, they use one “average” person, so inequality vanishes in the math (hello, Bill Gates effect). This isn’t just unfair. It’s building a new class system based on inheritance, not effort. What do you see as the biggest driver of unfairness between generations today?
