I like Charles Malet. He strikes me as a rare exception: someone who feels compelled to speak out, even though it’s going to cause him inconvenience or worse. The U.K. Column people, as far as I can tell, are all like this. I didn’t realise until just now that Charles writes for U.K. Column (I don’t routinely consume any media because I simply don’t have time).

This is a very sane piece in an insane world, from a former policeman, ex-British Army.

Here, he flays open recent legislation which forever changes what you can say in this country, taking us well down the road to the obvious objective of chilling free speech to the point that people won’t say anything about anything that isn’t approved narrative.
He also points out that official news organizations are NOT BOUND BY THESE SAME LAWS.
Ask yourself, why are they doing this? It’s clearly a preparatory step to presumably much worse.

If this feels shockingly totalitarian, that’s because it is. Our lawmakers will vote for whatever they’re told to.
I doubt our judiciary will say a peep. Main media will play along. There are no limits to what a government can do under such circumstances, because there are no (not few but zero) civil society institutions willing and able to oppose anything bad.

I’ve said before to my own children that I recommend they identify the least bad locations to explore emigrating to. I’ve only a relatively short time left in decent health. I don’t plan to move to rural Africa. But someone fit & well and 30 years of age? You surely cannot be planning to remain here. Why would you, if you had options?

Best wishes
Mike

Kevin Lister tells Charles Malet how he lost his job as a teacher and found himself on the Children's Barred List after raising safeguarding concerns for a female student who had requested to be treated as male.

Watch on UK Column: www.ukcolumn.org/video/the-preservation-of-fantasy-transgender-ideology-with-kevin-lister

Mr Malet is correct and it's nice to see someone else stating that the UK government is a terrorist organisation within the definition of its own legislation. Myself and my colleague have discussed this ad infinitum over the last few years and reached the same conclusion

The UK government is of course also aiding and abetting a genocide, again within the definition of its own legislation, and likely we are too, as we continue to fund them via our taxes. More on that another day

The attached article covers the recent arrests following the Southport incident, and the Online Safety Act. Worth a read for a greater understanding.

s180 of the legislation of course needs repealing. It's an affront. As my good friend and colleague said to me yesterday "we need to make Orwell fiction again" (MOFA)

Kevin Lister's life has been trashed, completely, after he raised a safeguarding concern for one of his students who had requested to be called by a different name and considered to be a different gender. This should be sent far and wide, certainly to all parents and educators.

In April, Charles covered how the UK is targeting Telegram, citing concerns over 'extremism' with the made-up term 'Terrogram,' highlighted by Hope Not Hate. Now, Telegram founder Pavel Durov has been arrested upon arriving in France. What does this mean for the future of online discourse?

Back in April, Charles predicted the direction of counter-terrorism measures. Now, after Keir Starmer's so called 'Change,' we're seeing the focus narrow towards the far-right. As Charles said, it's a slippery slope when defining 'extreme right-wing terrorism.' Who's next?

Sir Keir Starmer spits out the word "Telegram" to make plain that he is coming after everyone on the platform. Hear UK Column's assessment.

This is Terrorgram... allegedly.

From the prescribed list of terror groups Under the Terrorism Act 2000, the Home Secretary may proscribe an organisation if they believe it is concerned in terrorism, and it is proportionate to do. For the purposes of the act, this means that the organisation:

• commits or participates in acts of terrorism
• prepares for terrorism
• promotes or encourages terrorism (including the unlawful glorification of terrorism)
• is otherwise concerned in terrorism

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/proscribed-terror-groups-or-organisations--2/proscribed-terrorist-groups-or-organisations-accessible-version

'The Terrorgram collective - Proscribed April 2024

The Terrorgram collective is an online transnational network of extreme right-wing terrorists who produce and disseminate violent propaganda with the aim of radicalising readers and encouraging individuals to commit acts of terrorism. The aim of the Terrorgram collective is to bring about the collapse of Western democracy and a ‘race war’ by encouraging others to engage in violent acts of terrorism.

The government assesses that the Terrorgram collective operates as an organisation in accordance with the guidance provided by section 121 of the Terrorism Act 2000. Its core leadership provides direction to the preparation of propaganda campaigns and coordinates activity between participants to disseminate terrorist content to advance accelerationist ideology.

The UK government assesses that the Terrorgram collective is an organisation which is concerned in terrorism. The UK government assesses that the Terrorgram collective is involved in preparing for terrorism through the inclusion of instructional material in their propaganda. The UK government assesses that the Terrorgram collective promotes or encourages terrorism. Their publications present a violent narrative and contain material which glorifies previous extreme right-wing terrorist attackers and encourages consumers to commit similar actions.'
