Overview of the protest On 6 September 2025, a group of healthcare professionals were arrested during a protest in Parliament Square, London. The demonstration was organised by Palestine Action in collaboration with Health for Extinction Rebellion (HfXR). It coincided with a larger, separate march held by the Palestine Coalition. The protest attracted an estimated crowd ...
🕵️‍♂️ Scene One: Heathrow Terminal, 2025. Graham Linehan, comedy writer turned cultural insurgent, touches down from Arizona—jet-lagged, headphone-clad, and presumably unaware that his tweets have been upgraded to felony-grade contraband. Enter: five armed officers. Not one, not two, but five. Because clearly, nothing says “public menace” like a man who once wrote Father Ted and ...
Across the UK healthcare sector, institutions are increasingly adopting tools like the “Safeguard-o-Matic 3000” to manage reputational risks and streamline compliance processes. This device, widely used in various settings, is designed to detect, deflect, and dilute allegations of misconduct before they escalate.

While these aspects of freedom are undoubtedly important, there exists a deeper, more personal form of liberation that emerges from embracing solitude and cultivating a rich inner life. ...
I only found out today about this major cover up in the history of the world. I’m like “How on earth can one cover up a major nuclear disaster?!” If you have other more important things to do, like bathing dogs and watering plants then do that first. Introduction In the annals of nuclear history, ...
As some may know I was working in Northern Ireland for 7 months recently. I enjoyed meeting the people there – not so much the people working in health services. NI is a lovely country – a State in the United Kingdom. Before I went there, I had images of bombs going off and people ...
