I’ve written an open letter (found IN the link below) in my attempt to help #SaveSquareChapelArts (Halifax) & managed to get a group of well-known pals to back my cause. 🙌 I’d be enormously grateful if you could read the letter & repost. 🙏🏻 Many thanks x www.canncomms.co.uk/post/open-le...

How long before the BBC start describing Hitler as ‘misunderstood’?

Alasdair Mackenzie@alasdairmackenzie.bsky.social

Not only is the BBC not prepared to describe one of the UK’s highest profile fascists as what he is, the fact that he’s on trial for harassing journalists is apparently “Local News”

Good to see the BBC completely ignoring this on their 6pm ‘news’. Chris Mason is probably having a meltdown watching Reform going down the toilet faster than a turd in Ferrari!

I asked some friends of mine to do a few lines of my poem ‘Ode To Square Chapel’ in support of my quest to help #SaveSquareChapelArts in Halifax. Without hesitation… they all chipped in. 🙌 It’s what friends are for. Please re-post if you enjoy! x

So how are all the racists going to cope? According the Metropolitan Police the five men are from London and are aged in their 20s. They live in Westminster, Camden, and Willesden. They remain in custody on suspicion of offences under the Explosives Act and the preparation of a terrorist act.

I’m sure he’ll apologise immediately

I picked this up from the library a couple of days ago and all I can say is WOW! I’ve got through more than 300 pages in less than 48 hours - it’s unputdownable!

Everyone knows Farage is a racist cunt, what’s outrageous is none of the other channels, especially the BBC, challenge him.

Eddie Burfi @eddieburfi.bsky.social

Just look at the glee on Nigel Farage’s face as he watches a Piddington resident cry about the overt racism she, her Caribbean heritage husband, and their two children have felt in the village during the referendum. Time and again he’s showing us exactly who he is.

Brilliant, every racist should be made to watch this!

I’m going for a viewing at #SquareChapelArtsCentre Halifax tomorrow, to see what state it’s in after it fell into darkness. Even if I’m unable to save it (& I’d dearly love to) let’s hope there’s some kindly, art-loving benefactor out there who cares enough about it to do so! 🙏🏻 🤞 🙌

BBC have already gone into arse licking overdrive calling Zia Yousef ‘Shadow Home Affairs’ spokesman. Last time I looked the rancid little gobshite wasn’t even an MP just an unelected wankpuffin!
