🔥 East Anglia Bylines discovered 3 polling stations where staff confirmed they’d been instructed that voters without voter ID were to be sent away, if possible, before entering the polling station, so they wouldn’t have to have the rejections recorded. https://eastangliabylines.co.uk/exclusive-claims-of-election-law-breaches-by-council-over-voter-id/

We've received information about an 11th hour briefing to polling station clerks, to turn away ID-less voters before they enter the polling station, so they can’t be counted as having been officially turned away.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has reportedly stated that Russia 🇷🇺 has mined Reactor 4 of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (NPP).

News reports indicate that Ukrainian troops 🇺🇦 are advancing on the 🇷🇺 positions in that direction.

Anti-monarchists receive ‘intimidatory’ Home Office letter on new protest laws.

Protestors face prison. How long can this silence people?

Corporations cause disruption too by sackings, shifting production and wage cuts, but none face criminal sanctions.
