Crowdfunder
https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J
This is my appeal for help in paying the nearly £800 I have been ordered to pay by early/mid April 2024 following my recent free speech conviction (see earlier blog posts). So far, in the past few days, £160 has come in, from three generous donors who regularly read the blog.
Talking point
Interesting, but nothing would have the impact of 6 such missiles landing on Central London.

Good grief.
Many attempts have been made to conquer that region: Alexandrine Greeks under Alexander the Great (4th Century B.C.), the troops of the British Empire (19thC A.D.), the armies of the Soviet Union (1980s), and the armies of the Western alliance (2001-2021). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afghanistan#History.
According to my use of Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], that works out as leaving the Con Party with about 42 MPs (Labour 518; LibDems 49; SNP 18; Plaid Cymru 3; Greens 2; Northern Irish seats 18).
Were that to happen, the LibDems would be the official Opposition, and the UK would be under what is already looking like being a Labour Party “elected dictatorship” for 5 years at least.

Their fundraiser is still increasing in value: see https://www.givesendgo.com/sammelia.
Sven Longshanks (James Allchurch) also has a crowdfunder to help him in prison, and to get him back on his feet once released (likely to be any time after May 2024, and in any event by August of this year). https://www.givesendgo.com/SupportSven. Even small amounts help (the minimum donation is a mere £4).
My own crowdfunder (to help me pay the financial impost imposed upon me by the Court at my sentencing hearing last Thursday) can be found here: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J.
