FLORIDA WOMAN CALLS POLICE ON NEIGHBOR FOR HAVING A BRITISH ACCENT — TELLS OFFICERS “WE ALREADY WON THAT WAR” Police in Florida say they responded to one of the more unusual complaints of the week after a woman allegedly called authorities to report her neighbor for “suspicious British activity.” According to officers in Tampa Bay, the woman contacted police claiming a man living next door had been “speaking with a British accent for several days” and she believed something wasn’t right. Dispatch records say the caller insisted the accent was “clearly intentional.” When the operator asked if the neighbor had threatened her or committed any crime, the woman reportedly replied: “No, but he keeps talking like he’s from England and I’m pretty sure we already settled that.” Officers arrived at the apartment complex to investigate and spoke with the neighbor in question, who turned out to be a graduate student from London attending a nearby university. Police say the man was extremely confused about why officers were asking about his accent. According to the report, the woman had confronted him earlier that day and demanded he “stop pretending to be British.” Witnesses say she allegedly told him: “We won that war and you know it.” The man reportedly tried to explain that he was, in fact, actually British and had recently moved to Florida for school. The explanation did not appear to resolve the situation. Police say the woman then called authorities claiming the accent was “historically inappropriate.” When officers explained that speaking with a British accent is not illegal, the woman reportedly asked if there was “a permit required for foreign accents in residential neighborhoods.” Authorities confirmed there is not. Police say the call was ultimately classified as misuse of emergency services after determining no crime had occurred. The British neighbor reportedly handled the situation calmly and told officers he had “no plans to change his accent anytime soon.” As for the woman, officers advised her that international history disputes are not a police matter. One officer later joked in the report: “In 2026 we can confirm the Revolutionary War remains fully resolved.”

Nearly a year after the Supreme Court judgment, the ⁦@oldvictheatre⁩ still has its mixed-sex ‘Cublicle’ loos. Since it has a parallel set of ‘Urinals’, men get single-sex facilities while women are denied that privilege.

@not_alive_irl It was only six years ago that we suddenly had an urgent need for ventilators that we couldn't fulfill just by wishing we could increase production.

@RupertLowe10 Raising game birds creates monocultures, destroys ecological systems, kills raptors, foxes, wild cats all so some corporate tosser event can take place. You don't understand the countryside.

More Labour attacks on rural Britain reported today - this time through licensing game bird shooting. Total bloody nonsense. These people do NOT understand how the countryside works. It’s a ban through the back door. More regulation will follow and it will suffocate the industry. Damaging rural economies, jobs, businesses, livelihoods and environments. A Restore Britain Government would reverse these changes, and do the unthinkable for a political party. Respect rural Britain.

@flowerpotweller @oldishbird1 Very unusual sad cases. Now find us the ones where women have faced potential prosecution after an accidental miscarriage and the danger that failure to seek medical assistance as a consequence poses to their health.

@oldishbird1 The pills by post scheme allows abortion pills to be ordered after a telephone consultation. Woman have already used them to abortion 28-week and 34-week old children. Now there will be no punishment for such a thing.

The reporting on abortion to term is annoying me. My instinct has always been pro-life. But the debate in the UK was settled around 24 weeks. Some wanted less, some wanted more. It was only after WHO guidance changed that the debate was reopened here. The amendment to the Police and Crime Bill does NOT legalise abortion up to birth. The legislation still centres on 24 weeks. And it has always been the case that abortions after 24 weeks even up to birth, with sign off from 2 doctors, where there are abnormalities or the mother’s life is in danger. Many people question whether a cleft palate should fall into that category, but it is true that the current law allows doctors to interpret it that way. (Unbelievably) The change to the law now means that if a woman procures an abortion herself after 24 weeks, even up to full term, she cannot be prosecuted. Every part of me rejects that. But it is important to be accurate, that is not the same thing as saying abortion is now fully legal up to birth. It’s a change in how the law treats the woman, not a wholesale rewriting of the legal limits of 24 weeks. I think that’s an important distinction. Do I think it will be abused? Yes. Is it abhorrent, Yes.

I dont think being overly emotional is particularly helpful when it comes to matters of the law but for the first time since becoming an MP I am genuinely sad about what parliament has done. I am sad because I know what the consequences will be. I am sad because I know nervous first time parents might give way to doubt and opt out of parenthood and how the reality of that means they'll be denied the greatest gift life will ever give them and instead inherit a life of monstrous guilt. I am sad because, now, healthy babies will be destroyed. I am really sorry that the UK has legalised full term abortion. For what it's worth, I voted NO. I am going to squeeze my children a little tighter and thank the universe a little more than normal this morning. You cannot become unpregnant. You just become the parent of a child you killed. That is the reality of life. We must face it. My babies.

The House of Lords have voted narrowly in favour of allowing abortion up-to-birth in England & Wales. The only solace is that one day they will meet Jesus.

@kissingtruth @redditchrache Lots of medical procedures are fairly gruesome but you're talking about a tiny number of abortions where the health of the mother is in serious danger or the child is not viable.

SEX SELECTIVE ABORTION UP TO BIRTH NOW LEGAL When I was pregnant in the 90s in Solihull, West Midlands we were all told by doctors, nurses and midwives that we could not find out the sex of our child during scans, even if the professional doing the scan in an NHS clinic could see what it was on the screen. The reason was that the local Asian communities around Birmingham would abort female foetuses. This was not a right wing talking point. It was official NHS policy and discussed openly. Friends in other parts of the country without large Asian populations could have scans to find out the sex of their babies on the NHS. Now, Parliament has legalised any woman aborting a foetus up until birth for any reason. Including if it is the wrong sex. This is deeply disturbing, very very sad and totally against British values. In fact only tiny numbers of the population support this. All those Labour MPs and peers who voted for this should be ashamed. The left are always trying to foist this on us under the spin of it being "pro woman" and "pro choice". There is nothing pro woman about this. And there is certainly no consideration at all for the unborn child. I support abortion rights up until the current limit which is already very liberal compared to other countries. It makes me personally uncomfortable but I do accept it is important to have the choice for women, and I would not want to see that rolled back. But what the Lords voted for last night is morally reprehensible and utterly wrong. I voted against it but there were not enough of us.

@redditchrache In fact, only tiny numbers of abortions happen after the 24 week limit and only for medical reasons. Why do you want to jeopardise the health of women by forcing them to continue with a pregnancy that could kill them?
