Florence Pugh condemns the education system for protecting abusers and those who knew about the 2024 Cornell gang rape involving seven fraternity members but failed to report it: “Colleges/schools/universities repeatedly fail women around the world. You build men that get taught through time and time again that they can do extreme harm and that they won't be harmed in return. There is no equality until you respect our bodies. There is no equality until you stop damaging our souls... We are the life force of this earth, start f**king protecting us. Be angry for us. Please.”

Do people like this think staff at the Security Services are replaced by each government?
Let's be clear- It wasn't our security services that thwarted the terrorist bombing of RAF Fairford, they knew fuck all about it. A local farmer, on her way home from a party, saw the vans and called the police. Mass murder was averted through blind luck. We are not safe under this Labour government.

Why won't Reform let our Security Services and police do their job? Want a pile on every single time
The Govt must tell us the truth about the identities, arrival times and provenance and residence status of those arrested outside RAF Fairford

Trump is praising the UK here... Why would it mean resignations?
Well that smashes @DPJHodges and other lefties theories…. @Ed_Miliband should resign immediately

Security services of UK and US still trying to gather information on scale and nature of the threat. Either Nigel Farage understands the authorities can't release this information, and is playing politics. Or he doesn't, in which case it underlines why he isn't fit to be PM.
I have been warning both in and out of Parliament for many months about Iranian agents coming into the UK via small boats across the Channel. We deserve to be told the truth about the Fairford bomb plotters’ identities.

I am genuinely requesting Cornell publish the essays these men were required to write as an apology. I want to read them and I have a red pen.

Forget the victim mentality Unless it's piercing the skin or snapped, you don't need to waste A&Es time going to the hospital for broken ribs.
Spent 8 hours in A&E yesterday with two broken ribs. "Do you have a religion?" "No." Took off my Star of David. Small moments, heavy reality. It doesn’t feel safe to be openly Jewish in the UK right now.

yes the Cornell rape incident is horrible, but a more overlooked sinister detail is that they advertised it in a group chat and NONE of the guys reported it or stopped them. Men enable men.

They raped her for hours and not a single one of them was expelled from @Cornell despite the school fully being aware of what took place. Their only punishment was to write an essay. That girl had her life destroyed by these men and this was the “justice” she received. None of them were charged or convicted.
The Cornell 7: Matthew Ingalls Johnathan Newell Winston Lee Gillio Lopes Diego Sarabia Scott Norris Scott Kretzschmar All 7 Chi Phi members are named as defendants in a civil lawsuit alleging they drugged a Cornell student with ketamine and sexually assaulted her for HOURS in 2024. The suit says a message advertising “free p***y” was sent to the frat group chat while she was incapacitated. And "men" showed up to take him up on his offer. And Cornell’s response? The lawsuit alleges some were given the opportunity to MITIGATE THEIR CONDUCT BY WRITING ESSAYS. She left Cornell. 5 of them were ALLOWED TO CONTINUE THEIR EDUCATION AT CORNELL. Remember their names and faces.

If you’re criticising Burnham for wearing a £110 pair of trainers, you clearly haven’t bought a pair of trainers for a few years.

So, if you're listening to an audiobook, and you find an error (clearly a non edited out re-read of a line)... Do you tell the publisher, author, or just ignore it? #WritingCommunity #Audible

Boomers are the worst generation in history. Ever. Their parents fought and died for their freedom. Freedom they enjoyed to the fullest extent. And now they’ve f**ked up the world, they want their CHILDREN to fight and die for them. Utter c*nts. F*ck off.
A new survey says 43% support compulsory military service for young people. But guess what? Break it down by age and only 15% of those who'd actually be conscripted back it, while 66% of over 65's support it.

It's the Nations League, get a grip
This guy has literally fluffed his lines at every single big moment in his career. The highest profile loser in the sport. But he’s gone to stat pad for a dominant side in a league where Timo Werner hit 30 goals and people want him to win a Ballon D’Or despite achieving nothing…
