The Soldier by Rupert Brooke If I should die, think only this of me:       That there’s some corner of a foreign field That is for ever England. There shall be       In that rich earth a richer dust concealed; A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,       Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam; A body of England’s, breathing English air,       Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home. And think, this heart, all evil shed away,       A pulse in the eternal mind, no less             Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given; Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;       And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,             In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

They cut down thousands of acres of Amazon rainforest to build a highway... Then invited millionaires and billionaires from around the world to fly in on their jets to lecture us plebs on how we're destroying the planet. Anyone who buys into this bullshit is retarded.
An incredible 100-year-old veteran appeared on Good Morning Britain with Kate Garraway and Adil Ray and said he didn’t feel it was worth fighting the war, looking at the state of the country today. What a heartbreaking thing to hear from someone who sacrificed so much for our freedom. Yet instead of showing him the respect he deserves, these presenters patronised him — speaking to this brave man as though he were a child. Absolutely disgusting. When will our Prime Minister, the Labour government, and all the left-wing activists who love to call people like me and my Reform UK colleagues “far-right” finally wake up and realise — this man was only saying what so many of us are thinking! Is he “far-right”? No. He’s just right. 🇬🇧
They've probably been watching BBC news,a well known bastion of fact based news!

Must be at least 20 people there, including those too young to vote, of course. Good turn out for racists, normally it's less. Does it really piss you off that London won best city ON THE PLANET to live in AGAIN this year?

🇬🇧 Lest We Forget 🇬🇧 Today my children stand in honour, my daughter carrying the standard, my son guarding the cenotaph. They do so not just for ceremony, but for family and country. For their great-grandad, grandad, and uncles, men who served with courage, who carried the weight of duty before them. The blood of British soldiers runs in their veins, and today, it shows in their pride, their silence, their salute. We remember all who stood when called, all who never came home, and all who still carry the memories of those who did not. We will remember them. 🕊️🇬🇧 #LestWeForget #RemembranceDay #ProudFamily
Has there ever been a more shambolic representation of the British public at The Cenotaph than this current crop of Politicians ... ? Can't think of anyone less patriotic than Starmer, Lammy, Mamood, Khan, Davey ... utterly horrendous 😢

I admire most things about Remembrance Sunday and proceedings at The Cenotaph, but the hypocrisy of senior politicians lining up to lay a wreath never fails to make me queasy.

This brave, wise and kind gentleman will beg to differ. Instead of being what you think is a figure head at the cenotaph, go to a veterans home and serve them tea and listen to them!

🚨BREAKING: The local council in Upton, Merseyside tried to cancel the rememberance Sunday parade but veterans ignored them and turned up anyway and it ended up being bigger than ever before. Incredible. ❤️🇬🇧

🚨 BREAKING: 🇷🇺 Putin EXPOSES the claims that Russia would attack the EU or NATO: "Nonsense. They deceive their population in order to ensure that money is squeezed out of the budget." What motive do EU officials have in the Ukraine-War?
David Richards retweeted
Dear Republicans take note: Putin banned George Soros in 2015. The Russian government shut down Soros’ entire network — the Open Society Foundations and all connected NGOs. They ruled his operations were “a threat to national security,” banned all funding ties, and made it illegal for his organizations to operate in the country. Their reasoning: Soros’ groups were “undermining the constitutional order” and “destabilizing society.” In plain English: They kicked out his influence — completely. Meanwhile in America, we let Soros and his network buy prosecutors, rig policies, flip cities into war zones, empty prisons, and turn criminals into victims and victims into criminals. He has bought: • District Attorneys • Judges • Politicians • Activist groups • Media narratives And Republicans just sit there like: “Well we don’t want to upset our billionaire donors…” ENOUGH. America needs to cut him off completely. Shut down the foundations. Ban the political money pipelines. End the influence operations disguised as “non-profits.” Freeze the funding networks that are destroying cities from the inside out. If other countries can protect themselves from this level of political manipulation, then America better find a spine and do the same.
Please don't ruin the climate change scam!
We've gone beyond the point where we can wait around for bankrupt councils to clear our city drains. Consider this anarchism in action. Take back the streets. Get a shovel and get to it.

Yesterday I opened & dug out this drain in a walkway in Aldridge. It floods, no drainage on the footbridge other than this. Dug it out with spade & hoe. About 2 ft deep to a sump it's a soakaway, I reached in an cleared soil & roots - this should be good for another year
