  • Police officers ‘assaulted’ as Tommy Robinson march draws thousands to London

    Jump

  • From his wikipedia page:

    In April 2005, at Luton Crown Court, Robinson was convicted of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and assault with intent to resist arrest against an off-duty police constable

    In September 2011, at Preston Magistrates' Court, Robinson was convicted of assault for headbutting a man in Blackburn on 2 April 2011.

    In July 2011, at Luton and South Bedfordshire Magistrates' Court, Robinson was convicted of using threatening, abusive or insulting behaviour, for leading a group of Luton Town F.C. supporters into a brawl involving 100 people

    In October 2012, Robinson was arrested and held on the charge of having entered the United States illegally. He had used a passport in the name of Andrew McMaster

    In November 2012 Robinson was charged with three counts of conspiracy to commit fraud by misrepresentation in relation to a mortgage application

    Sometime after 10 pm on 17 January 2021, Robinson went to the home of the journalist Lizzie Dearden after she had asked for his comment for a story she was writing about allegations that he had misused financial donations from his supporters. He falsely accused her partner of being a paedophile and threatened to return every night.

    On 13 October 2021, Robinson was convicted at Westminster Magistrates' Court of stalking the couple

    On 21 May 2025, Robinson was charged with harassment causing fear of violence against two Daily Mail journalists in August 2024.

    On 27 November 2023, Robinson was charged under a Section 35 direction excluding a person from an area, after he refused to leave the area of the March Against Antisemitism in London

    On 10 May 2017, Robinson was charged with contempt of court, and convicted. He had filmed inside Canterbury Crown Court and posted prejudicial statements calling the defendants "Muslim child rapists" while the jury was deliberating

    On 25 May 2018, Robinson was arrested for a breach of the peace while live streaming outside Leeds Crown Court

    After a Syrian refugee boy was assaulted in a school bullying incident in October 2018, Robinson falsely accused the victim of having previously attacked two schoolgirls. These events forced the refugee's family to relocate because "the level of abuse the children have received has become too much".

    On 28 July 2024, Robinson was arrested by Kent Police at the Channel Tunnel in Folkestone under the Terrorism Act, "for frustration of a schedule 7 examination"

    In August 2024, The Times reported Robinson and associates had created "a web of secretive companies" which made profits of over £1.6 million without paying tax

  • Thames Water paid £1m-plus to private intelligence agency part-owned by Starmer adviser

    Jump

  • Superb reporting from The Guardian 👏

    From those who don't know Haykluyt, it's basically a private intelligence agency. Their clients are multinationals, billionaires and wealthy individuals seeking to sabotage enemies or gather extremely sensitive information.

    They call themselves "strategic advisory" but make no mistake, these people are spooks.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hakluyt_%26_Company#Activities

    Hayklut's chairman, Lord Paul Deighton, is probably one the most connected man in Britain.

    He is the chairman of Goldman Sachs in London

    He is a close friend of David Cameron.

    He sits in the House of Lords.

    He is the current chair of The Economist.

    Deighton was also the guy in charge of PPE contracts during Covid:

    Lord Deighton has helped the government award billions of dollars in contracts –– including hundreds of millions to several companies where he has financial interests or personal connections.

    The fact private water companies are hiring spooks to oppose nationalization is alarming.

  • I don't condone murder or political violence, but I won't cry about this guy either.

    Jump

  • I will not celebrate violence. I will not celebrate murder. It's wrong.

    I'm sure he loved his wife. He loved his church. He loved his kids.

    But this very same man had no issue with throwing men with no criminal records in horrific south american prisons. Men who simply wanted a better life.

    He had no issue with spreading lies about election results, even if the result was violence.

    He had no issue with lying about legal Haitian migrants eating dogs and cats, even if they received countless death threats.

    He believed Canadian gun laws were silly, any angry man should be able to easily purchase guns. He didn't respect Canadians. He laughed at them.

    I don't want to sound like a horrible monster, but it's hard for me to feel empathy.

  • Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings’ secret meeting with Palantir founder Peter Thiel revealed

    Jump

  • Peter Thiel signed a massive contract with the NHS

    But most UK hospitals say it's totally useless:

    Palantir, co-founded by billionaire and Trump donor Peter Thiel—who once claimed the NHS “makes people sick”—is known for its secretive operations and controversial clients.

    Now, nearly 18 months after the Palantir NHS contract was signed, Democracy for Sale can reveal that many English hospitals have a different, unexpected objection: Palantir’s software simply isn’t good enough.

    Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust was even more blunt, telling NHS England in a private letter that adopting some of the tools on Palantir’s platform would lead it to “lose functionality rather than gain it.”

    https://democracyforsale.substack.com/p/palantirs-nhs-data-platform-rejected-hospitals

    I'm a Foreigner. I clearly see corruption.

    This is money stolen from the NHS. These people robbed the NHS.

    The fact many Britons aren't angry and in the streets absolutely infuriates me.

    People should be literally showing up at the homes of Boris Johnson and Dominic Cumming. People should be SCREAMING on them. These scumbags should be terrified. I understand the British aren't culturally the French, but still : /

    He has also damaged democracy in the United Kingdom and the United States. For decades, his medias have promoted climate change denialism, anti-union propaganda, and the most astonishing lies.

    I still remember the headline of The Sun right before the UK referendum on European Union membership:

    He is nothing less than a vicious criminal:

    Shame on Australia for producing such a piece of shit.

    He wouldn't have the power he has today without ordinary Australians using his medias as a source of information.

    Please financially support media alternatives.

  • The Telegraph somehow out-does Farage on hypocrisy over tax dodging

    Jump

  • No offense to the wonderful British people, but a lot of your press is trash.

    • The Sun ? Trash.

    • The Daily Mail. Largely non-sense.

    • The Telegraph ? Official newspaper of the Tory Party. Used to employ Boris Johnson. He was lavishly paid to publish non-sense about the EU.

    • The Independent ? Now owned by Saudi Arabia and a Russian mobster.

    • The Times ? Owned by Rupert Murdoch's News of the World. The CEO is Rebekka Brooks, former editor of News of the World. She is an actual criminal.

    • The Economist ? The current chairman Paul Deighton, a friend of David Cameron. He is a Tory Lawmaker (House of Lords) that was in charge of Covid PPE contracts. According to the New York Times, Deighton gave huge contracts to companies he owned.

    The only two UK papers that I actually admire are The Financial Times and The Guardian.

    I'm sure there are wonderful local newspapers in Wales, Scotland, and major cities, but overall the situation looks quiet grim.
