Scientology's 2025 holiday catalogue is here, and yes, they're still selling a £360 walkman so people can listen to LRH lectures, which are only available on CD.

If the council doesn’t get off its backside & start taking $cientology’s machinations seriously, they risk being seen as complicit.

As the sun sets on Scientology's illegal marquee, the attention now turns to Mid-Sussex District Council: why was this allowed to happen without enforcement action despite a PCN being issued last year, and what will be done to repair the damaged AONB countryside?

26 years ago today, the Charity Commission rejected Scientology's application for charity status, concluding it "does not benefit the public". And yet, the church continues to escape scrutiny and last year paid just £1,840 in Corporation Tax. www.scientologybusiness.com/scientology-...

Scientology ads have reappeared at Tottenham Court Road. As an ex-Scientologist, these are deeply offensive, concerning and re-traumatising. When will #TfL realise their ad policy needs updating? Junk food ads are banned, but not abusive cults?! @hinabokharild.bsky.social @london.gov.uk
