Quote:BREAKING: President Trump's administration has now warned British PM Keir Starmer very sternly - you must STOP threatening US tech companies as part of your censorship efforts, according to the Telegraph.
Trump is playing no games with Starmer.
Better listen.
This comes following the UK's new "Online Safety Act" that has gone so far as to restrict what people can see on X.

Quote:The Irish comedy writer Graham Linehan, best known for creating Father Ted and The IT Crowd, was arrested at Heathrow Airport over social media posts criticizing transgender ideology.
Linehan was met by five armed officers on arrival in London and detained in connection with three posts made on Elon Musk’s X platform.
The Metropolitan Police confirmed the arrest was carried out by its Aviation Unit, whose officers routinely carry firearms at airports. A spokeswoman said the weapons were not drawn or used at any stage.
The posts under investigation included one in which Linehan wrote that men entering female-only spaces were committing abusive acts and should be challenged, with police called if necessary.
In another post, he said: “Make a scene, call the cops, and if all else fails, punch him in the balls.”
A third stated: “I hate them. Misogynists and homophobes. F*** ’em.”
Linehan said he was taken into custody, locked in a cell, and later taken to the hospital because of stress. He added that the condition for his release was that he stop posting on X.
“I was arrested at an airport like a terrorist, locked in a cell like a criminal, taken to hospital because the stress nearly killed me, and banned from speaking online — all because I made jokes that upset some psychotic crossdressers,” he wrote on his Substack.
He also mocked the sheer scale of the police operation.
“In a country where paedophiles escape sentencing, where knife crime is out of control, where women are assaulted and harassed every time they gather to speak, the state had mobilised five armed officers to arrest a comedy writer for this tweet (and no, I promise you, I am not making this up).”
Linehan, who recently appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience, has become one of the most outspoken critics of transgender ideology in Britain and Ireland.
The arrest was widely condemned across social media by the likes of J.K. Rowling, Elon Musk and prominent politicians.
