Sign the Petition Katie Hopkins is not welcome in Wimborne!

The groundswell of anger against Katie Hopkins touring Britain like she's just some normal celebrity grows.

Well done to local people in Dorset who aren't taking it lying down.

This brave woman speaks for millions of British people.

Meanwhile these thugs behave in an entirely menacing manner and nothing is done.

Peter Thiel’s spyware firm Palantir is wiring itself into critical UK services - with over £630m in government contracts.

We need a full Parliamentary debate on Palantir’s role 👇

The owner of Palantir, Peter Thiel is a political extremist who wants to abolish democracy. His money and influence propelled Vance into the White House. He should be allowed nowhere near British government data. x.com/nickdearden75/…

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.

This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.

It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.

A message to America: we are not your enemy Last night, the US launched an all-out assault on the "global censorship industrial complex", I respond with some deep breaths, solidarity and a vibey video (it's all I have)

NEW: last night, the US govt launched an assault on the ‘global censorship industrial complex’, aka European tech researchers/campaigners.

It’s a deeply chilling move & speaks as to why we need international solidarity more than ever.

Roles 
 
He never got to play 
the part of Joseph; 
he was one of those kids 
who no one noticed. 
 
The type barely seen
and more rarely heard,
not a Herod or Innkeeper,
no Second Shepherd.

He never got to wear 
the crown of a king 
nor the wings of an angel
(no one knew he could sing). 
 
No, instead he would be
Brown Cow Number Four,
A Rock or A Bauble,
The Stable Door. 
 
And now – forty years on –  
it still made him wince, 
for it seemed that his life 
hadn’t changed that much since.

Good luck to all the children taking part in their school’s nativity play this week. You’re all stars, no matter what your role.

Please stop using Grok or any AI to prove a point on social media. Every time you use it, it drinks fresh water and sucks up energy. Every time you use it, it pollutes a neighborhood (that is probably Black or brown. Every time.
Boycott it for the sake of the planet and your fellow human beings.
