offsite link It?s Not ?CSE?. It?s Child Rape Tue May 13, 2025 17:30 | Joanna Gray
It's not 'CSE'. It's child rape, says Joanna Gray. Enough with the sterile acronyms that seem designed to conceal the horror. Enough of the "bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language" (Wittgenstein).

It's going to take more than a Supreme Court judgment to flush gender pseudoscience out of the NHS, says Caroline Ffiske. In every policy and definition the NHS has dropped biological sex in favour of subjective feelings.

Activists disrupt police recruitment event, Brussels

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Sunday October 03, 2010 22:10author by anonymous Report this post to the editors

On Saturday 2nd October three activists disrupted a police recruitment event in Commensurate Ixelles, Brussels, following a week of harassment at the Brussels No Border camp. The public event was well attended and the activist took this opportunity to ask some questions of their own.

Serious concerns were raised about the abusive, sexist, psychotic and corrupt behavior of the police in Brussels, the supposed capital of Europe. This is particularly shocking given Belgium is a signatory of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

One of the activists speaking at the event had earlier that week been arrested getting on a bus for the way he looked. He was kept for 24 hours on a fake assault charge, humiliated and his wallet and passport were illegally ‘lost’. Other questions at the event highlighted the sexual abuse of a number of women in Brussels by the police that week.

The activists after highlighting these issues were dragged out by flustered police in front of a shocked audience. They were held under administrative detention for over 8 hours without food or water. Their dictaphone was also taken and its memory erased.

Two were released after 8 hours. On demanding to question why their friend remained in detention, they were threatened with arrest and literally chased out of the station by an aggressive police officer. After 10 and half hours of detention the last activist was released.

it seems, in this time of such great austerity, there are still plenty of jobs for thugs to keep down the discontented masses after they have been robbed by the financial institutions.

It seems they figured out that they can get the taxpaying serfs to pay for their own oppression afterwards too. Nice system isn't it? So much better than socialism don't you think?

Lets all vote for right wing parties again next time around. They are really making such a better world for us all, free from terror, pollution and corruption.
