It’s right that a man has faced criminal prosecution for throwing a plastic bottle and swearing at police. But he got two years while an actual illegal migrant child sex offender got 12 months, was released by mistake then paid to go back to Ethiopia.

🚨 MUSLIM ACTIVISTS ATTEMPT TO CANCEL NATIONAL TREASURE. The group “Deenified” has tried to cancel comedian @JohnCleese over his so-called “Islamophobia”. Deenified posted a video on social media accusing the Fawlty Towers star of being a “hate preacher” and of using his platform to “attack Islam”. It also called for his comedy show in Birmingham — part of a national tour — to be cancelled. The Islamic website 5Pillars joined in, suggesting that demands for Cleese’s shows to be cancelled could be replicated in other parts of the country with “substantial Muslim communities”. Fortunately, John’s show in Birmingham went ahead without disruption. The Free Speech Union stands squarely with John Cleese and his right to free speech. Parliament voted to abolish blasphemy laws 18 years ago, but the Government’s official definition of “anti-Muslim hostility” is reintroducing one for Islam alone through the back door. This move has further emboldened those who wish to silence legitimate criticism of Islam, its history and its practices. It is not a crime to criticise, debate or mock any religion in Britain. We must not let an Islamic blasphemy law take root. Watch FSU External Affairs Officer @_ConnieShaw 👇

Great. Can you @andyburnham apply this logic to religion and scrap the Islamophobia definition? And anything else that’s two tier.
🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham is set to scrap the law that bans football fans from drinking in the stands "I don’t see how it can be fair that some supporters of one sport can be treated differently"

🚨🚨 FSU STUDENT MEMBERSHIPS are 50% off until 31st October — just £14.99! Whatever your political views — whether you are pro-Israel or pro-Palestine, gender-critical or a trans activist — everyone at university has the right to free speech. University should be a place where ideas are tried, tested and debated in good faith. Yet at the Free Speech Union, we have seen countless students hounded off campus, ostracised by their peers and punished for expressing entirely lawful and legitimate views. Many students say they are too scared to speak their mind, share their views or ask questions. That is not right. You should not have to fear the cancel-culture mob simply because they disagree with your worldview. This is happening despite the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act 2023 placing universities under a strict legal duty to protect free speech on campus. The Free Speech Union is a non-partisan mass-membership organisation dedicated to defending your right to free speech. As our External Affairs Officer @_ConnieShaw says, when she needed our help, we fought for her right to free speech. It was the best money she has ever spent. Join the nearly 50,000 members of the Free Speech Union — we are your best defence. Use code FRESHERS26 to sign up 👇

EXCLUSIVE: The full story of Khaliz Ali Alshimery, the illegal migrant who hunted women and raped a 20-year-old autistic student in Oxford, and the system that failed her. • In court, his barrister accused the student he raped of exposing herself, grabbing at his penis, and demanding £50 for sex • Migrant NGOs and protesters fought his transfer from a hotel to a barge days before he attacked her • The BBC ran 3 stories on his conviction and never once mentioned he was an illegal migrant • The victim's letter to the Home Office asking what they knew about Alshimery went unanswered • He's now exploiting a "stateless Bidoon" loophole to avoid deportation "It feels like his country now, not mine," his victim told me.

It was a prospective Green Party councillor who uncovered the evidence that the Home Office might end up committing a "wildlife crime" if the migrant accommodation goes ahead in Piddington. It's mental that the safety of newts rather than the British people might be what stops this in its tracks. But at least there is a Green doing what a Green should be doing and standing up for the environment - one would have thought newts would loose against illegal migrants when it comes to the oppression hierarchy!
'They shouldn't be here in the first place!' Connie Shaw voices her support for the people of Piddington protesting against plans to house migrants near the village.

Ed Sheeran is being cancelled because he hasn’t publicly expressed the ‘correct’ opinion strongly enough. Anything less than complete and loud compliance with the dogma is unacceptable to these cretins — all of whom suddenly love free speech apparently.

If only we all had an extra few quid, we wouldn't notice the entirely preventable rapes.
'If we can get on a stronger economic footing, people aren't going to look at other problems.' Former Labour Councillor Sebastian Salek suggests people would not be as concerned about migration if their quality of life was better.

If the government's proposals to tackle 'misinformation' became law, you may not have seen this coverage of the illegal immigration crisis from @PatrickChristys They want to force social media platforms to promote news sources they deem "trustworthy", which will mean demoting those they deem "untrustworthy". It's not hard to imagine which category GB News would fall into, particularly when they are also redefining 'misinformation' to include political dissent.
‘That is a mega dinghy live in action.’ GB News Presenter @PatrickChristys says every illegal migrant shown in the footage is now in the UK, and that French authorities did not approach the identified people smugglers. 📺 Freeview 236, Sky 512, Virgin 604

The Government’s case for regulating online misinformation rests on a review that cost taxpayers almost half a million pounds, relied on AI summaries of 228 unread papers, and ignored contradictory peer-reviewed research: freespeechunion.org/publicat…
