UK Authorities Monitoring Social Media, Arresting People for Misinformation
They’ve already “arrested on suspicion of publishing written material to stir up racial hatred and false communications.”
Thank you, George Washington, for crossing the Delaware on Christmas and killing the Redcoats.
Riots have been non-stop since a man killed three children and injured eight other kids in a stabbing at a Taylor Swift-themed event.
The new leftist government and media keep saying it’s all the far-right, but Brits are just tired of two-tiered policing and violent crime.
It’s gotten so out of hand that the authorities are now monitoring social media.
Think before you post! They’ve already arrested a 55-year-old woman for supposedly posting misinformation that could cause a riot:
A Chester woman has been arrested over a social media post that contained inaccurate information about the identity of the attacker in the Southport murders, police said. The 55-year-old woman was arrested earlier today (Thursday, August 8).
She was arrested on suspicion of publishing written material to stir up racial hatred and false communications. She is currently being held in custody, with police saying she is assisting officers with their enquiries.
Chief Superintendent Alison Ross said: “We have all seen the violent disorder that has taken place across the UK over the past week, much of which has been fuelled by malicious and inaccurate communications online.
“It’s a stark reminder of the dangers of posting information on social media platforms without checking the accuracy. It also acts as a warning that we are all accountable for our actions, whether that be online or in person.”

Unless the government is arresting its own people for misinformation, they are not doing what they say they are
That’s because you’re confusing good Leftist government approved misinformation with bad unlawful misinformation. :-
4 legs good, 2 legs bad!
Oceania is at war with Eastasia. Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.
They threatened Americans and Brits over free speech, we collectively gave them the biggest FU ratio beat down possible
Minitrue will now monitor all telescreens until morale improves

Herr Starmer is doing what Hitler could not do, subjugate the British people.
The Limeys have been subjugated for two millennia. The reality is until the middle of the last century, everyone in the UK (including all the Commonwealth countries) were British subjects, not citizens. I think they’re all largely citizens now. But, there may be a class of people located in the Commonwealth that are still recognized as ‘subjects’ and not ‘citizens.’
Is Herr Starmer der Stürmer?
This “arresting people for misinformation” … does this include politicians ?
uh- so “what if” I am here across the pond and start posting?
Better yet- I create accounts in their politico’s names and start posting?
My, my. Think how bad things would be right now in England if the Allies didn’t win WWII.
They might be full of white people.
James Madison in Heaven, right now: Boy, did I call it or what?
This is a great lesson in the importance of codifying or memorializing civil rights in some kind of ratified Constitution that both guarantees specific rights and limits the power of government rather than leaving up to hodgepodge of statutes and customs. The reality is the Monarch still retains an INCREDIBLE amount of power but traditionally waives that power in deference to Parliament and its ministers. But, the reason the Prime Minister still asks permission from the Sovereign to ‘form a government’ is because that’s still how the law works. It’s all a quaint novelty usually….until they start putting people in prison for sharing the ‘wrong’ thoughts on social media.
That works right up to the point that the government begins ignoring that Constitution:
“…reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.”
“…Shall not be infringed.”
And that’s only two. There are more.
They should be arresting and deporting Muslims. The UK serves as an example of what we would have if we fail to oust Dems and their associates, followed by expelling illegals, especially those who are Muslim.
Actually, they’re arresting people for INFORMATION. If you post correct things about the situation in Britain, they are coming for you. They want to force people to post misinformation – “diversity is our strength”. Anyone who posts true information is hauled away to the Tower of London, which is where Keir Stormer belongs.
I have to wonder if Starmer’s Thinkpol is being advised by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards. Britain cannot even pretend to be a free country anymore, and we should not treat them as such.

Sunak was no saint, but I think this should demonstrate why you NEVER stay home and not vote in order to send a message.
Nigel Farage was in the race and with the missing voters voting for him there could have been a coalition to keep Labour out.
Or alternatively they could have had a continuation of Sunak.
Both are vastly better than the current Starmer and Two Keired Policing.
Have a Republican on the ticket under Trump you don’t like running in your district or state?
Vote for him/her anyway,
A vote is not a valentine, you aren’t confessing your love for the candidate.
It’s a chess move for the world you want to live in.
That concept is what so many people can’t wrap their heads around, when it comes to President Trump. They obsess over criticizing his personality and/or persona, while ignoring his undeniably positive policy accomplishments and track record. They can’t divorce their personal dislike for the man, from his delivering positive outcomes for the U.S., and, the free world.
They are only arresting certain types of people for “misinformation”.
Starmer was and is a Trotskyite, he once edited their publication Socialist Alternative. No I am not kidding.
Mary, George Washington did not cross the Delaware to kill Redcoats at Trenton. They were Hessians and yes it matters.
Classic British arrest for “misinformation”:
“What’s your favorite color?”
“Blue. … No, red …”
“That’s it, sir! You have lied enough. You are under arrest for domestic terrorism.”
They have been voting for this type of government for decades. No one should be surprised they got what they wanted
The Wuhan virus lockdowns and other, assorted lawless and tyrannical diktats during year 2020 and afterwards, showed — disappointingly, but illuminatingly — how quickly and gleefully leftist apparatchiks in western democracies will exploit crises to expand their power, while curbing citizens’ rights and freedoms
I’m thinking specifically about what happened in the U.S., Canada, Australia and the U.K. The obnoxiously despotic shenanigans that transpired were hugely disappointing to anyone who had thought that these countries represented staunch bastions of individual liberty and the rule of law.
I fear that this Orwellian nightmare affects both sides of the Atlantic (and I don’t mean only those reactionary, counter-revolutionary running dogs of English imperialism north of the Great Lakes).
Over a century ago, Judge Learned Hand wrote that if liberty dies in the hearts of the people, no constitution, laws, system of courts, or whatever can save it. Apparently, the security promised by a nanny state has proven more attractive to the Brits than “traditional English liberties” or what have you. It’s happening here in the States as well.
It is definitely happening in the hearts of some people; the lefty wokiestas. Others are pushing back against the Orwellian State and its ‘public/private partnership’ efforts.
And, to go with Judge Hand’s trenchant observation, we can add Benjamin Franklin’s famous aphorism in response to a query — “A republic, if you can keep it.” The outcome of the U.S. presidential election taking place in three months time will answer that question.
When authorities come to arrest you resist with your guns. Oh I forgot you have none. Slaves to the government usually do not.
>>She was arrested on suspicion of publishing written material to stir up racial hatred and false communications. She is currently being held in custody, with police saying she is assisting officers with their enquiries.<<
And therein lies the problem. The citizens roll over like the good sheeple they are expected to be and "assist officers with their enquiries" to put them in prison for whatever crimes they are accused of. No Miranda Rights for the citizens of the U.K. that's for sure.
Have you really never encountered that peculiarly British dogwhistle?
It is a cultural term of art, meant to signify that the subject was given the “choice” between coming downtown “voluntarily,” and being dragged there in cuffs, and chose the former as it would have made no difference in either case.
To the author. Washington crossed the Delaware on Christmas to attack the Hessians, not the Redcoats. The Hessians were Brit controlled mercenaries of German ancestry who typically wore blue or green uniforms.
Please stop reporting misinformation or I will turn you into Keir Starmer’s secret police for stoking up hate against Redcoats.
You know, there are more similarities here than one might think.
King George used foreigners against British patriots demanding their rights and representations as subjects of the crown only to be forced to revolt, and take their country from the tyranny being imposed upon them.
And Starmer is using foreigners against British patriots demanding their rights and representations as subjects of the crown
The question is, does the current set of British patriots have the courage to start whistling ‘Yankee Doodle’?
Because that is the only solution.
I have seen no signs of that courage to stand for their own freedom at home, in the last several generations of Brits.

And Judge Dredd was supposed to be UK satire on the police state.
It wasn’t supposed to be a How To manual.
the government wont release the known information
THATTTTTT IS THE REAL CRIME!!!
the people have the right to know
we support people who want civility
The real crooks are the UK government who refuse to jail Muslim criminals who are ruining UK.
Islam does not share Western values.
For example, per Islam, girls are allowed to be married at 9 years old.
(Muhammad married Aisha when she was 6 and had intercourse with her when she was nine. On the day of her marriage, she was playing with her dolls.)

Starmer is now announcing anti-blasphemy laws to protect Islam from criticism
Posting something that may be incorrect or that hurts at least one person’s feelings is the moral equivalent of burning a bus.
“traditional English liberties” or what have you.”
I have often wondered about that. We keep reading about the ‘free’ Anglo-Saxons opposed to a ‘tyrant.’ But we never see a copy of the English Constitution and then comes a news story like this,
The Magna Carta was about the rights of the nobility vs. the king. It gave rights to nobility. The power of the king has further eroded a few more times, to the point where the king seems to be a largely ceremonial position.
The king was often the defender of the rights of the commoners against the lords of the land they lived on. Reducing the king’s power puts the landlords in charge.
On the other hand, in recent years the House of Lords has been largely neutered to a society that dutifully checks the work done in Commons.
So England has “evolved” to a system nobody intended, a more or less pure unicameral legislature called the House of Commons. And we see them swinging wildly now without a rudder.
Are Muslims accountable for their actions? Are they arrested for “misinformation” or incitement, including what they write in Arabic?
Of course not. No freakin’ way. They’ve won. It’s just a matter of whether the traditional stock can regain their country. Currently they have lost it.
What did they fight ww2 for?
Come and get me, Keir. Come extradite me. I dare you.
Islam may not be criticized. Black letter Islamic law.
