Just Ms.Rachel spreading Ed Sheeran for filth

If more than 20,000 white children were killed in another part of the world, everyone would be shouting about it at their concerts. Treating some children’s lives as less worthy of outrage is racist. Silence during a genocide is not neutral.
5h
Imagine looking back 20 years from now at yourself kicking someone off a tour because they spoke out during a genocide that has killed 20,000 kids.

However much you hate British media, it is not enough www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09...

How having a disability became cool
Young women, nicknamed ‘sickfluencers’, are turning chronic illness into a lifestyle trend and entrenching a culture of economic inactivity

Young women are also more likely to get caught up in “social contagion” – the spontaneous spread of behaviours or emotions previously observed by sociologists in “outbreaks” of bulimia, self-harm and transgender ideology. What may have otherwise been transitory feelings are seized upon and obsessed over until they form a central pillar of a person’s identity. A chronic-illness influencer won’t want to get “better” any more than a female-bodied transgender person would want to re-identify with their sex.

They burned it. They did it early to avoid being stopped. And note that the police arrived, ‘were goaded’, and then left. Last year they burned a replica of a boat full of refugees. Now they burned a replica mosque. Calls for mass murder, out in the open.

The Moygashel bonfire in Co Tyrone, which contained a replica mosque, has been set alight early.
A small rally was held in the village by residents at around 10pm last night.
Shortly after 11:30pm a decision was taken to set the bonfire alight after reports contractors were to move in on the site.
Police officers arrived on the road when the bonfire was lit, before being goaded and told to leave the area.

Phone ban, social media ban & curfew, trans bathroom ban, trans youth healthcare ban, repeated protest ban, arrests of peaceful protestors for Palestine. All this government seems able to do is ban, ban, ban. No positive vision of the future, just kneejerk authoritarian crackdowns.

I'm not against ensuring there are better protections for young people online, but as per usual Starmer has gone the wrong way. As it stands, it looks likely Labour's reform's will see young people excluded from supportive communities and genuine help and advice. 1/2 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
