Goodwin says "it takes more than a piece of paper" or birthplace to make somebody British.
This is not often applied to Fred West/Ian Huntley, Kim Philpy, etc
So how it is applied to British-born people from the majority + minority groups who commit crimes + who don't is rarely/never made clear

What on Earth is this? An "in depth" BBC article about free speech in the UK that only cites examples of right-wing/ 'anti-woke' speech being suppressed. How can you mention Lucy Connolly but completely ignore Palestine Action / Just Stop Oil? Gob-smacking. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
How the simmering UK freedom of speech row reached boiling point
How did we reach a point where the UK is being compared to a 'tin pot Third World dictatorship'?

Sky News says police are "overwhelmed by the numbers". Met coped perfectly well with 2x as many at the pro-Gaza rally, 5x as many at the anti-Brexit march, and 15x as many at London Pride.
They're not overwhelmed by the numbers. They're overwhelmed by the ratio of violent thugs in those numbers.

Given the context and the crowd, despite Musk’s weasel words, this was a call for violence against the British state, from a foreign national who controls a major propaganda engine, and has engineered it to monetise hate

🏴 The Shetland Isles, a Scottish archipelago in the North Sea, are exploring the construction of undersea tunnels like in the Faroe Islands.
What would that mean for football teams, fans and island life in general? And what is the sport like in this isolated outpost?
