Not going to work. Biology always trumps ideology.
The UK’s socialist Labour Party-controlled government has rejected calls from the British public to roll back its Orwelian censorship laws, instead doubling down on digital restrictions even as backlash intensifies at home and abroad.
Britain’s globalist government rejected widespread public demands to roll back its sweeping Online Safety Act (OSA).
More than 160,000 Britons signed a petition urging Parliament to repeal the Act, a law critics warn has rapidly evolved from a child-protection measure into one of the most aggressive censorship systems in the democratic world.
Instead of reconsidering, MPs used the debate to push for even stricter controls on VPNs, age-verification tools, encrypted messaging platforms, and AI chatbots.
The debate in a sparsely attended Westminster Hall session revealed a stark divide as the public demands digital freedom, and the government presses for deeper surveillance and expanded authority.
Britain needs a First Amendment, and a Second Amendment to protest the First.

It needs to completely fail and burn down showing the rest of the west to wake up or your next.
Yes, and I think a major goal of the Ukraine war was to get as many Slavic men as possible to kill each other.
A senior fire officer has become the latest victim of the UK government’s speech policing after he was forced out of his job for “sexist behavior” for failing to discipline his colleagues for using the “offensive” term “fireman.”
Simon Bailey, a 27-year veteran of the Avon and Somerset Fire Service who had previously been commended for bravery, was disciplined for allowing what investigators called a “longstanding campaign” of “sexism” in his station.
Bailey has just lost his case after suing his former employer for unfair dismissal.
The hero fireman received a written warning in July 2023 after a tribunal found he presided over an “openly sexist” workplace.
He was accused of allowing “sexist behavior” for failing to challenge staff who used the term “fireman” instead of “firefighter.”
The disciplinary action followed complaints in 2021 from firewoman Sasha Acheson, a former England Women’s rugby player.

UK Government Expands Censorship Laws to Begin Preemptively Scanning Private Messages for ‘Illegal Content’

Serial rapist Metropolitan Police officer allowed to join the force 'because of drive to improve diversity'
A review published on Thursday found that thousands of police officers and staff were not properly checked amid pressure during a national recruitment drive from July 2019 to March 2023.
PC Cliff Mitchell applied to join the Met in 2020, but the vetting process flagged up a previous allegation of raping a child in 2017, and his application was rejected.
However, a vetting panel, made up partly of senior officers, overturned the decision because the force wanted to improve the number of officers from ethnic minorities.
PC Mitchell went on to carry out a “campaign of rape” against two victims, including a child under the age of 13, while he was a serving officer.
He is one of 131 officers and staff at the Met who were not properly vetted and went on to commit criminal offences and misconduct.
PC Mitchell was jailed for life and sentenced to serve at least 13 years after he was found guilty of kidnapping and rape.

Around the same time that Amelia was being born, images of Persian women lighting their cigarettes with the Ayatollah’s photograph went viral.
Inspired by the courageous and beautiful Persians, I made my own first contribution to Amelia, depicting her lighting her cigarette with a burning picture of Keir Starmer, or with a burning progress pride flag.
Whether in imitation, or inspired directly by the Persians, similar images soon appeared.
So I guess in addition to purple hair, Britishness, and racism, another of Amelia’s canonical characteristics is that she’s a smoker, which honestly fits the archetype of a rebellious alt girl. ...
Amelia’s explosive popularity seems out of step with the image of the right as conservative and traditionalist. This may be what led to Shout Out UK’s fortuitous misstep in the first place (assuming that Amelia wasn’t just the creative director’s shadow persona self-insert, which is distinctly possible). Rightists, they may have reasoned, are generally hostile to the aposematic fashions beloved of the left’s gender-ambiguous hall monitors. Reactionary Christian conservatives prefer their girls to be demure, submissive, and modest; they dislike tattoos, piercings, and brightly coloured hair. By associating nativist extremism with a purple-haired alt girl, they’ll drive the chuds away from racism! It’s brilliant!
... I’ve thought for a while that this conservative presentation is a gross strategic error. The right should instead embrace the ready-made aesthetics of the antihero: leather jackets, sunglasses, leather boots, and so on. it should take its aesthetic cues from heavy metal, punk rock, jazz, industrial, and techno, not country and western or easy listening Christian contemporary. It should dress with a bit of edge.
Amelia’s resonance is a function of her subversion of contemporary sartorial norms, which code Manic Panic hair as visual shorthand for insufferable shitlibbery. ... Amelia as chudette, as sweet-natured Nietzschean e-girl, as rabid remigrationist with a fag in one hand and a burning fag flag in the other, this is something unexpected, novel, and therefore interesting. The right-wing is not supposed to be visually striking, it is not supposed to grab eyeballs with loud colours, it is expected to be aesthetically dull and uninspired, it is supposed to behave and obey the rules (which were written so that it will always lose). Amelia presents possibilities that haven’t been explored yet ... if the authoritarian den mothers of the longhouse can appropriate punk rock fashions and wear them like a skinsuit ... could not a cyberpunk right do the same?
Amelia poses a question. Can we hyperstition manic pixie dream radicals into existence? This is almost the same question as: can we psyop the existing supply of art hos into adopting right-wing opinions? Can they be seduced to the dark side, which is to say to the forces of the good, the true, and the beautiful? At the individual level it’s a known phenomenon that women will tend to adjust their beliefs to match those of their boyfriends and husbands; can we do this at the collective level, as well? Can we hold frame, letting them know that gay race communism might offer them a ‘career’ but at the price of romantic loneliness ... that they have to choose between being ‘good’, and being loved? Women love nothing more than male attention. By projecting the political imperative of remigration and reconquista onto a whimsical avatar, perhaps a signal can be transmitted into the collective mind ... ‘Men want this ... you can be this ... doesn’t it look like more fun than whatever you’re doing right now?’
The purest and most powerful form of modern mythology, however, is not to be found in comic books, fantasy novels, or conspiracy theories, but in the humble and unserious meme, which has grown to encompass, supersede, and transcend the other forms with its ubiquity.
Before Trump was elected, Pepe had been deified via his connection with the primordial Egyptian god of cosmogonic chaos, Kek...
This fueled the half-serious, half-ironic belief in meme magic on the forum – the notion that memes could be used to prophecy, or perhaps even to change reality. Proliferation of a meme could establish a sort of resonance between the consciousness of human beings and the universal mind, leading to the manifestation of the meme in reality.

- almost no homeless, saw just one so far
- lots of trash though
- prices seem reasonable, a bit lower than SF, but that's because the pound is so low against the dollar
