30 Left-Wing MPs Call on Ofcom to Censor X Under the Online Safety Act. Of Course They Do Sun Nov 23, 2025 09:00 | Laurie Wastell
Thirty Left-wing MPs have written to Ofcom to press it to censor X under the Online Safety Act. The evidence of 'hate' on the platform is threadbare, but it's obvious why they want to clip its wings, says Laurie Wastell.

Nah, seriously, check out the D-Day. Bring smiles, kids, colours, instruments, sense of humour, ye get the idea.
Ahem, I thought we were discussing Diversity Day. This event is an opportunity for EVERYBODY (football fans and others) to balm out in the park listening to choons for a good cause. P.S. Revelation Sound will be there all day long with the bass pumping. C U there! (I'll be the one in the People's Republic of Cork T-shirt)
jaysus boy! didn't he stand up to those organgies at linfield!
de true son of gawd old keane is!
Pat: is that corpus christi parade still as big as ever dere?
Kommy: Get away ye langer! Had you not heard that Roy Keane has replaced the Body of Christ parade as the big puller? 5000 people came out and showed their solidarity with Corks most (in)famous (depends on yer perspective) Mayfield boy at the time of the world cup spat.
Jesus'd be turning in his grave if he stayed there!
i'll spread the news about it to my benighted cork relations & brethern.
is that corpus christi parade still as big as ever dere?
Some people love the place, some people can't stand the place. I'm sure that goes for most towns and cities. That is pretty much irrelevant to what's going on on Sunday which is a celebration of diversity in many forms.
Bishop Lucey Park as its officially known is also known to the good or otherwise people of Cork as 'De Peace Park'.
I take it you're not coming Pat but thanks for your helpful comment in any case.
its good but ironic to see diversity celebrated in "bishop lucey" park. the park was donated to the city of cork by the church of ireland.
to show their appreciation for this gift the good burghers of cork named the park after a fundamentalist roman catholic bishop: cornelius lucey. (connie lingus as he was fondly known to some)
only in cork could you get such ignorance, spite & petty-mindedness. (well maybe on ravensdale rd, shankill rd, rathcoole, waterside, portadown)
hmmm, how about 101 reasons why i hate cork?
(before any leesiders rush to the defence, let me point out that i spent 18 years in that parochial town)
