It increasingly looks like the state is denying bail to force confessions.
That is corrupt.

"Freedom of speech is not freedom for ideas or opinions to go unchallenged by evidence"
Indeed. Yet you provide no evidence that I am wrong. Ironically, you turn off your replies, presumably to avoid being exposed to evidence that I am right.
Out of the 49 signatories there are 5 historians, 11 English or other language specialists, 2 classicists, 3 chemists, 2 theologians, 3 musicians, the college librarian... Not a single psychologist, behavioral geneticist, or even anthropologist. Correct me if my suspicions are wrong, @janrosenow, but do any of you have a clue about this topic?
Today, 49 members of the Oriel College Senior Common Room published a statement, in a personal capacity, on the Nathan Cofnas event on 17 November.
I am one of the signatories.

Hi Bridget @bphillipsonMP I'm glad you think NDAs are being used to silence people over misconduct allegations.
I await with baited breath confirmation that Nick Brown left politics because he sodomised a rent boy so badly they forever have to wear a colostomy bag.
I heard from multiple sources.

📣🚨 FSU VICTORY!
A Scottish FSU member was driving on the M80 with his four-year-old son after a day at an amusement park when another car cut him up, nearly causing a collision.
Under his breath, he muttered something racist. The windows were down, but the other driver wasn’t looking at him. The only witness was his young son in the back seat.
Convinced the dangerous driver had been drinking, our member contacted the police. They eventually stopped both cars and reviewed his dashcam footage.
A week later, the police contacted him to say that an offence had been committed — not by the dangerous driver, but by our member, for words he had muttered under his breath in the privacy of his own car.
He was prosecuted for allegedly causing alarm and distress, even though only he and his young son were in the car. It is extraordinary.
The Free Speech Union found him an excellent barrister, and he was acquitted by the Justice of the Peace within minutes.
This is the closest we have come to defending someone prosecuted for thought crime.
This is the extent of police overreach in speech and thought policing. They need to get their priorities straight.

Bill Gates two weeks ago, John Kerry last week, and Hillary Clinton today — all demanding government censorship of X. Hard to see this as a coincidence. They appear to be laying the groundwork for totalitarianism. Our democratic republic is in danger.

I'm honored to be "Climate Heretic" #7 out of 50 listed by @Newsweek. For decades, apocalyptic fanatics demonized, censored, and ruined lives. Facebook censored me for stating easily verifiable facts. Many people are trying to pretend it never happened. But we will never forget.

WARNING - Remember when I told you about Client side scanning? (Original post below)
On 9 November, the government confirmed it is preparing legislation to put this technology into smartphone operating systems, switched ON by default.
existing phones will receive it through software updates. Adults would have to prove they’re over 18 to switch it OFF.
The EU has been pushing similar proposals under “Chat Control”.
It means software will inspect images and content on your device, before you send them or even view them.
In June, the government was asked whether this technology could also be used to detect and block ‘hate’ speech and other text content. It confirmed it would consider wider uses.
Which means, with Ofcom’s new rules on responding to ‘crisis’ situations, the technology could be expanded to prevent you from sharing content the authorities decide is unacceptable.
Instead of censoring you after you post it, they could stop you posting it in the first place.
But you still have free speech obvs 🙄
🚨WARNING the bit Starmer isnt telling you is... this sort of device technology is called Client-Side Scanning.
It is already built into the Ofcom regulated Online Safety Act through “accredited technology” notices. The EU has been pushing similar rules through its Child Sexual Abuse Regulation, known as “Chat Control”.
It basically means phone companies and platforms can be pushed to scan messages, images and content BEFORE you send them, then either allowing them to be sent or blocking/reporting them.
Once the precedent is set, "to protect children", it can easily be widened to block whatever government decides is “harmful”.
And that's how you go from child safety to state approved speech.
TA DAAAA 🚨

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
该帖声称华纳兄弟和Netflix高管因该AI视频冻结1亿美元项目、视频3小时获1.42亿播放量，但无证据或报道支持，此说法为自9月起循环的未经验证AI炒作。工作室实际正对类似AI工具采取法律行动反对IP侵权。

Ofcom indicated in a hearing today that it is going to start pushing for arrest warrants for American refusers of the Online Safety Act.
It is wildly inappropriate for a foreign country to threaten Americans for exercising our constitutional rights.

This is government gaslighting to a high degree.
1. It’s not a new announcement. The Norfolk East and West offshore wind projects were announced earlier this year as part of the AR7 round of contracts.
2. No way does it bring down prices. Those behind it, energy giant RWE + global investors KKR, were guaranteed an above-market strike price of £91.20/MWh based on 2024 prices — indexed linked for 20 years. That guarantee is already worth £97/MWh in 2026. This is v expensive energy.
3. What is new is that the costs of developing offshore wind have soared. So the government has now had to chip in £1 billion of the £12 billion investment needed from the National Wealth [Destruction] Fund. So more state subsidy on top of the massive subsidies for two foreign companies implicit in the price guarantees embedded in AR7.
4. Far from cheaper electricity this embeds high-cost electricity in the system for 20 years.
5. So much for the Chancellor’s Budget pledge to ‘only build new projects when they lower prices’. This does the opposite — and at enormous expense to the taxpayer and electricity user.
Gaslighting indeed.

They forced me into hijab at age 6 and forced me to wear it for the next 25 years till I left. They told me my whole life I’d go to hell and burn for an eternity if a man sees my hair and lusts after me even though I was a little girl. They told me I was worth half a man my whole life; I’d inherit half, my witness in court is half, my blood money is half, I’m half-brained. They told me if I dishonour my family, my father or grandfather or uncle or any man in my family would kill me to restore the family honour with no consequences to them whatsoever. They told me my father is my male guardian and gets to decide if I get an education or a job or even a lifesaving surgery. When I got married to a Muslim man, they told me now he was my male guardian and would get to make those decisions for me. They told me if I ever give birth to my own children, he would own them forever like my dad owned me. They told me I couldn’t divorce him even if he beat me to death or married 3 other women simultaneously. They’d chase me around and arrest me if my hijab wasn’t proper enough for decades. They imprisoned my uncle in solitary confinement for having unIslamic ideas. They told me they’d imprison me if I’d had unIslamic ideas. They murdered thousands upon thousands upon thousands people like me who had unIslamic ideas. They still tell me I was never a real Muslim and am not a real exMuslim now. They still call me a whore/ slut/ jendeh/ fahisha/ majoosi/ prostitute for speaking about my own experiences. They send me death threats quite frequently. They stalk me, harass me, threaten me, insult me (and my parents) to silence me.
Do you get the picture or do you want me to go on. Because I can go on.

Let me be clear {colon}. It is not for you to state the clarity of your "message".
You are all noise and no signal. You manifestly do not know what you are talking about, and your message are just the incoherent regurgitation of green ideological articles of faith.
As #COP31 begins, my message is clear: no country can tackle the climate crisis alone.
Britain will work with countries around the world to tackle the climate crisis, while leading a transition at home that brings down bills, creates jobs and protects our communities.

Completely hypothetical question: Suppose that someone today started a new religion that condoned pedophilia, viewed women as inferior, despised everyone who was not of their religion, hated dogs, desired to conquer every inch of the world, hated our culture, civilization, and heritage, was astoundingly illiberal, cut off the clitorises of five-year-old girls, along with 1,000,000 other pieces of evidence that were contrary to every one of your liberal values. Would you think it ok to ban it or should it be granted full freedom to take over our society?

THE UK IS TRYING TO REGULATE THE ENTIRE U.S. DIGITAL ECONOMY - AND ONLY THE GRANITE ACT CAN STOP IT
The UK's insane pivot to try to regulate eBay as a social media network (because it includes direct messaging) is simply the next step in the plan it has had all along:
Controlling the entire U.S. digital economy through extraterritorial regulations.
As the lawyer for the first four American targets of Ofcom, it was clear that the UK's attempted rollout of the Online Safety Act was to take place in phases. Based on the enforcement patterns, this is roughly what we observed:
STEP 1: TEST CASES
That step happened. Ofcom went after Gab, Kiwi Farms, 4chan, and SaSu. All four refused Ofcom's orders and refused to pay fines.
4chan, in particular, forced the UK to engage in an embarrassing climb-down in Parliament about enforcing its fine - but the UK's enforcement activity continues to escalate against progressively larger American targets.
STEP 2: PIVOT TO MAINSTREAM SOCIAL APPS
Having failed to tame 4chan, the UK then went after the social media majors - Roblox, X, TikTok, Meta - in order to (a) restore the regulatory regime's credibility and (b) chalk up some wins against targets that have domestic UK footprints and, accordingly, are not judgment-proof there.
STEP 3: WIDEN THE NET
This is today's announcement. The UK is extending the logic applicable to social media platforms to drag U.S. marketplaces into the ambit of the Online Safety Act, arguing that the messaging features of these platforms make them social media platforms.
STEP 4: WIDEN THE NET SOME MORE
If the UK is allowed to get away with this, it will start working its way down to progressively smaller platforms.
THE SOLUTION: THE GRANITE ACT
The UK won't try this crap if there's a risk that they'll face a U.S. federal lawsuit and a court defeat.
There is a bill before the House, H.R. 10174, the GRANITE Act (Guaranteeing Rights Against Novel International Tyranny and Extortion), that would fix this. It has a companion in the Senate.
CONGRESS: PROTECT THE U.S. DIGITAL ECONOMY AND PASS THE GRANITE ACT.
The UK Government, in the person of culture secretary Lisa Nandy MP, is reportedly planning to expand its social media ban for under-16s to cover online marketplaces e.g. eBay, Vinted, Depop thetimes.com/uk/technology-u… (£)
#OnlineSafetyAct #socialmediaban #techpolicy #childrights
ALT Nandy will publish details of the social media platforms to be banned from having users aged under 16 later this year, affecting tech giants including Facebook, Instagram and X. But in the spring, she plans to go further. A government source familiar with the internal discussions said: “There is an increasing body of evidence that says under-16s are accessing these services a lot and are potentially accessing risk. “We need to take a comprehensive approach to protecting children from harm online. That means if platforms have a messaging function that allows people to speak to strangers, we need to seriously consider them needing highly effective age requirements.” Online computer gaming sites that allow adult strangers to message or sometimes talk to children are also expected to be hit in this second wave of action.

When I posted yesterday about Andy Burnham’s political machine secretly intercepting public emails to protect his Abu Dhabi property deals, my inbox was flooded by people thanking me for finally calling out what goes on in Manchester.
Well, I woke up this morning and looked at the latest financial disclosures coming out of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, and the rabbit hole just got so much darker.
Burnham's authority has been caught funnelling nearly £1,000,000 of taxpayer money to completely anonymous beneficiaries in a series of secret payments.
They paid out £83,000 in rent to a hidden landlord. They handed out thousands in anonymous "consultancy fees." Worst of all, they gave a £210,000 capital grant to a property developer and completely redacted the name from the public ledger.
When journalists finally confronted them, the authority claimed hiding the £210,000 developer payout was just a "human error" and blamed the rest of the secrecy on data protection laws.
Look at the terrifying double standard at play here.
If a working citizen misfiles a tax return by fifty pounds or makes a mistake on a local form, the state will investigate their entire life, apply ruthless penalty fines, and threaten them with court.
But when Burnham's regional authority hands a fifth of a million pounds of public cash to an anonymous property developer, they simply shrug and call it a clerical typo.
This is exactly how the modern British political cartel operates. They use the language of bureaucracy and data protection as a legal shield to funnel public wealth to private, hidden corporate interests.
I am sorry, but they are not governing a city. They are running a shadow ledger with your money, and they are terrified of the public finding out who is actually cashing the checks.
