ANSAR ALLAH MOVEMENT ANNOUNCES A SERIES OF STRIKES TARGETING U.S. AND BRITISH VESSELS IN THE RED SEA
The ruling Ansar Allah movement in Yemen announced today a series of six strikes targeting American and British vessels operating in the Red Sea, as well as the targeting of the occupied port city of Umm al-Rishrash, also known as Eilat, in the southern-most point of the occupied Palestinian territories.
According to the spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, Brigadier General Yahya Sarea, "In a triumph for the justice of the Palestinian people and the inauguration of the tenth year of resilience in confronting the US-British aggression on our country, the Yemeni Armed Forces executed six military operations over the past 72 hours, utilizing a substantial number of ballistic missiles and drones."
Sarea said that Naval forces and Rocket detatchments belonging to the Yemeni Armed Forces targeted the Maersk Saratoga, APL Detroit, Huang Pu, and the Pretty Lady after identifying the four vessels as belonging to either the United States or Britain, and also conducted drone strikes targeting two U.S. destroyers operating in the Red Sea.
"The Rocketry Force conducted a military operation targeting several Israeli targets in the area of Umm al-Rishrash [occupied Eilat] in southern occupied Palestine," Sarea said in his statement, adding that the strikes had been deemed "successful," and dedicating the attacks "to all the mujahideen in the factions of the Palestinian resistance in the Gaza Strip."
Sarea also stated that the Armed Forces of Yemen "reaffirm their commitment to carrying out further operations against all hostile targets, and maintain the decision to prevent Israeli navigation or heading towards the ports of occupied Palestine in the Red Sea, the Arabian Sea, and the Indian Ocean until the aggression is halted and the siege is lifted on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip."
According to Sarea, the four American and British vessels were en route to the ports of occupied Palestine.
From the beginning of Yemen's entrance into conflict with the Zionist entity, the Ansar-Allah movement and its associated Yemeni Armed Forces have stated that their targets were specifically limited to the Israeli entity, along with its allies or vessels entering and exiting from the ports of occupied Palestine, and have yet to target any ships that are not associated with, or operating in, the ports of the occupied Palestinian territories.

If King Charles dies on or before March 25th, 2024, he will technically be the shortest-reigning king in English history.
Anyway, like to charge, reblog to cast.

I appreciate Karl Jenkins bemused reaction to the theory that he, a 79 year old white Welsh man composer, is, in fact, a 41 year old black American woman from California.
I mean, how else do you respond to an accusation like that?
“Look, my moustache isn’t that cartoonish and silly, surely?”
Like, what is this scenario? It’s Scooby Doo and Fred rips off the mask to reveal: “Oh my God, it’s the Duchess of Sussex!”
And she would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for you meddling hardcore royalists.

I really like how many of the world’s most iconic structures and places are just right next to some of the most mundane stuff imaginable, for example
Tumblr media
Stonehenge
Tumblr media
Is right next to a busy road
Tumblr media
The Pyramids of Giza
Tumblr media
Are at the outskirts of Cairo
Tumblr media
Niagara Falls
Tumblr media
Are part of the town of the same name
Tumblr media
And Agrippa’s Pantheon
Tumblr media
Is crammed inside downtown Rome
It just so interesting to notice.

Anti-monarchists receive ‘intimidatory’ Home Office letter on new protest laws
Home Office claims timing of new powers, taking effect days before king’s coronation, is coincidental
Ben Quinn, Rajeev Syal and Vikram Dodd
Official warning letters have been sent to anti-monarchists planning peaceful protests at King Charles III’s coronation saying that new criminal offences to prevent disruption have been rushed into law.
Using tactics described by lawyers as “intimidatory”, the Home Office’s Police Powers Unit wrote to the campaign group Republic saying new powers had been brought forward to prevent “disruption at major sporting and cultural events”.
The new law, given royal assent by Charles on Tuesday, means that from Wednesday:
Protesters who block roads, airports and railways could face 12 months behind bars.
Anyone locking on to others, objects or buildings could go to prison for six months and face an unlimited fine.
Police will be able to head off disruption by stopping and searching protesters if they suspect they are setting out to cause chaos.
Jun Pang, a policy and campaigns officer at Liberty, said: “Key measures in the bill will come into force just days before the coronation of King Charles – a significant event in our country’s history that is bound to inspire a wider national conversation and public protests. At the same time, the government are using a statutory instrument to bring draconian measures that the House of Lords threw out of the bill back from the dead, once again evading scrutiny and accountability.
“It’s worrying to see the police handed so many new powers to restrict protest, especially before a major national event. When the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act came into force, the police repeatedly misused them – in part because they simply did not understand them. Similarly, when Queen Elizabeth died, we saw police acting in inappropriate and heavy-handed ways towards protesters that violated their rights.”
Shami Chakrabarti, the former shadow attorney general, said: “During the passage of this illiberal and headline-grabbing legislation, ministers admitted that the new offence of ‘locking on’ is so broad as to catch peaceful protesters who link arms in public.
“Suspicionless stop and search is notorious for racial disparity and it is staggering that more of these provisions have brought into force so soon after Louise Casey’s devastating report [on the Met police]. The home secretary can blast ‘ecowarriors’ but this legislation may be used against anti-poverty and Ukraine solidarity protesters too.”
A statement from the home secretary, Suella Braverman, said: “This legislation is the latest step the government has taken against protesters who use highly disruptive tactics to deliberately delay members of the public, often preventing them from getting to work and hospital, as well as missing loved ones’ funerals.
“The range of new offences and penalties match the seriousness of the threat guerrilla tactics pose to our infrastructure, taxpayers’ money and police time.”

so just to sum this up, peaceful protesting can now land you in prison for a year and you might face an unlimited fine which i believe is up to £5000, and police can now stop and search you if they believe youre "setting out to cause chaos"
its specifically being put in place right before charles' coronation, but these are now considered criminal offenses so theyre not exclusive to it.
you know, a country where you can be put in prison for a year for peaceful protesting really doesnt sound like a fucking democracy to me.

OBSESSED with the fact that buttons got so popular in England during the 13th century that they had to pass laws limiting how many buttons you were allowed to put on a garment. They really had to bring in the government to shut down the button mania. Buttons are the sexiest clothing fastener.
