🇬🇧⚓ She was built to outrun the Royal Navy. She was built to carry people as cargo. The Royal Navy caught her anyway, and sent her back to hunt her own kind. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⛓️⚫️ Her name was Henriquetta, a Brazilian slaving ship, built for speed by a captain who wanted one thing: to deliver enslaved people before any patrol could catch him. In 1827, HMS Sybille ran her down. ⚓ The Royal Navy did not sink her. They bought her, armed her, and gave her a new name: Black Joke. A lieutenant took command, and she sailed back to the African coast, this time hunting the ships she once sailed alongside. Over the next 5 years she became one of the most successful ships of the whole West Africa Squadron. In one year alone she took 11 prizes. Free West African Kroomen served alongside her Royal Navy crew. 🌊 Her most famous chase began in 1829. She ran down the Spanish slaver El Almirante over 31 hours, neither ship able to shake the other, until Black Joke's guns finally found their range. Aboard El Almirante, 466 enslaved people, waiting in the hold. Every single one was freed. Career totals for people freed across her whole career are less certain, sources vary, and we won't pretend otherwise. What is certain: she was one of the most effective ships the Squadron ever had. By 1832, 5 hard years had worn her out. Her timbers were too rotten to sail home. She was broken up on the African coast that had made her famous. A ship built for one purpose became the opposite of it. Britain inherited a fast ship, and a choice about which side it would serve. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ We are the home of British heroes. There is a place for you in it. 👇🙏 If you can afford to support our mission: Be part of us. ☝️🇬🇧 Be Proud Of Us. 🙏🇬🇧

SHE EXPOSED A RAPE LIST IN THE ROYAL NAVY Former Lieutenant Sophie Brook was one of the first women to serve on UK submarines after the ban was lifted in 2011. She could have become the first female submarine captain. Instead, she became a whistleblower. Brook told the Daily Mail she was called a "c***", punched and hit by male colleagues, and informed she was on a "rape list", a list of women ranked in the order they should be raped in a catastrophic event. In 2022 she disclosed dozens of allegations from multiple female sailors, ranging from petty hazing to unwanted sexual contact and at least one instance of rape. She said she had come forward to shine a light on a culture that, for too long, had been permitted to thrive within some of the most elite branches of the armed forces. The Royal Navy launched an investigation. It took two years. The internal investigation confirmed 71 cases of misconduct between 2014 and 2020, leading to dismissals, demotions and reprimands. First Sea Lord Admiral Sir Ben Key apologised and accepted all 37 recommendations of the investigation in full. He met Brook personally and called her courage commendable. Brook said she was still concerned about the Navy's commitment to delivering meaningful change. Seventy-one confirmed cases. Decades of abuse. One woman willing to say it out loud. The Navy got 37 recommendations. Brook got an apology. The perpetrators got dismissed. Nobody got prosecuted. Great institution you've got there. Sources: Daily Mail | Sky News | BBC News (UK) |

Breaking News🇬🇧⚡️:"Do you know how many frigates and how many destroyers we have in the Royal Navy?". Watch as the prankster clown prince and new Defence Minister Streeting displays as much knowledge on the the size of the Royal Naval Fleet, as his political master Peter Mandelson showed in 'assessment of risk' when when he readily befriended and defended convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. What security clearances were in place when assessing Wes Streetings suitability for a role which will give him access top level military intel for the uK and our allies in defence? Streeting is a very close friend of Peter Mandelson who is still being investigated into the details of the Epstein Files relating to insider trading and selling secrets to the Russians and Chinese governments. Released files showed Global Counsel actively sought lucrative communication mandates (such as a £250,000-a-year contract) with China International Capital Corporation (CICC), alongside past firm representation of Chinese entities like Tik Tok and Shein. Mandelson served as a non-executive director for the Russian conglomerate Sistema—which held stakes in defense technology—retaining the position even after the 2014 annexation of Crimea. Security assessments flagged Streetings mentor Peter Mandelson with his links to figures including sanctioned Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska and China's finance minister Lan Fo'an.

🎥 Behind-the-scenes footage of the RAF Museum’s latest acquisition, the General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper, making its way onto the Royal Air Force Cosford airfield ready for the RAF Cosford Air Show this Sunday! 🎉 This will be the first opportunity for aviation fans to see it on display.✈️👀 The Reaper entered service with the RAF in 2007 and was its first combat-capable remotely piloted aircraft system, or ‘drone’ 🚁. The Reaper’s ability to loiter over targets undetected has given it an invaluable role in intelligence gathering 🛰️ and precision strike operations 🎯 in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. The Reaper retired from global RAF operations in 2025 after 18 years of service 🫡. 🏛️ The Reaper will become the first aircraft of its type to enter a UK museum collection. While it will be some time before it goes on permanent display at the Museum as part of our forthcoming exhibition, ‘The RAF: 1980 to Today’, we are excited to offer Cosford Air Show visitors this exclusive early preview 👏✨. If you're at the Air Show this Sunday, come see us!

Zara Tindall, due to her position in the Line of Succession, often found herself walking behind her cousins at public family events. Unlike her cousins, she did not receive the same level of security or treatment. Despite not being the heir, did Zara harbour any resentment towards her family? Did she write a spiteful book or trash her grandparents last years or appear on Netflix shows spouting lies & petty grievances for millions? No. Instead, Zara carved out an impressive career for herself within the Royal Family's framework & achieved the remarkable feat of becoming an Olympic medalist, making her country proud🥈🐴 The notion that Prince Harry had no purpose is absurd. He decided against further education & a civilian career, unlike Prince William, who served with the air ambulance. Harry also showed little gratitude for Sentebale, created by King Charles for his son, or Invictus, created by William and the Royal Foundation. Obsessing over what he didn’t have, he failed to maturely recognise his extraordinary privileges, which surpass those of nearly everyone on the planet. Many high-profile individuals have overcome profound challenges in their youth, forging resilience that drove their success and purpose. Madonna, for instance, lost her mother at age five and faced financial struggles, working multiple jobs in NYC to launch her music career. Steve Jobs, adopted & later a college dropout, endured homelessness and co-founded Apple. The Duke of Kent, lost his father in a plane crash at age six, a tragedy that thrust him into the role of duke at a young age. Despite this loss, he found purpose through duty, serving in the military and dedicating decades to public service, supporting the royal family and King Charles III into his 80s with unwavering commitment. These figures faced adversity—loss, poverty, or emotional upheaval—& transformed their struggles into meaningful achievements through perseverance & responsibility. In contrast, Harry’s privileged life shielded him from such trials. He gained entry to Sandhurst despite lacking the academic qualifications, supported by special accommodations, and was handed prominent roles in charities like Sentebale and Invictus without the grueling effort others undertake. In the military, he was protected from frontline combat, unlike regular soldiers, yet received accolades amplified by palace PR for minimal contributions. His father’s efforts to craft a heroic narrative arguably fostered an inflated sense of self-importance, unchecked by the weighty expectations placed on #PrinceWilliam, who bore the mantle of future kingship from age 11. Harry’s relative freedom, unburdened by such duties, granted him liberties William never had, yet he leaked Wills’s deployment to the media out of jealousy, revealing a pettiness untested by the genuine hardships that shaped the resilience & duty of others like the Duke of Kent. Zara, Peter, Beatrice, Eugenie, and Louise exemplify hard work and success, leveraging their privileged positions for positive impact without complaint. Zara, an Olympic equestrian, and Peter, a business director, have forged independent careers, while Beatrice and Eugenie balance professional roles with significant charity work. Louise, pursuing her studies, remains grounded and dutiful. Each respects their royal heritage, embodying strong family values & unity. In contrast, Harry, despite having all the opportunities, resources, and support to develop into his best self and forge a meaningful role, like practically all members of his extended family, allowed jealousy and shortsightedness to overshadow his potential 🙄 Zara would likely excel in a senior royal role working within the King's office, showcasing maturity, loyalty, compassion and teamwork—qualities arguably more valuable than mere "jazz hands." Her approach demonstrates what royal service, grace and dignity look like and aligns with other members of her family ❤️ #ZaraTindall #PrincessZara #Olympics

Bournemouth beach in 2026 — once one of Britain’s cleanest, most family-friendly resorts — now looks like this. Video shared by The media SOI 🇬🇧 shows the shocking reality: mountains of litter, overflowing bins that don’t exist, and a beach dominated by non-white migrants while white British families are nowhere to be seen. The transformation is total and deliberate. This wasn’t an accident. Decades of open borders, small boats, and zero integration have turned a proud English seaside town into a dumping ground — both literally and figuratively. The same people who arrive illegally or as asylum seekers are handed hotels, benefits and priority housing while British taxpayers watch their favourite beaches and public spaces trashed and culturally replaced. British families used to spend summers here without a second thought. Now parents have to think twice before letting their kids play on the sand. The mess, the noise, the disregard for basic standards — none of this existed before mass migration. Specific policy demands that must be implemented immediately: • Stop the boats and turn every illegal vessel back using the Royal Navy. • Mass deportation of every illegal entrant, failed asylum seeker and foreign national with a criminal or anti-social record — no appeals. • British citizens first in housing, welfare, jobs and public services — full stop. • End two-tier everything: enforce littering fines, public order laws and basic British standards equally for everyone. • Halt all further migration from high-risk countries until every illegal arrival is removed and our beaches, towns and streets are restored. Bournemouth is not alone. This is happening from Brighton to Blackpool. The British people never voted for this. We never asked to become strangers on our own coastline. Enough is enough. Reclaim our beaches. Reclaim our country. Put British people and British standards first — always. 🇬🇧

Former soldier and engineer, Carl Benfield speaks about the danger of climate change to our security Carl Benfield 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦 👏 "For 16 years, I served in the Royal Engineers and deployed on operations around the world, including Bosnia, Sierra Leone, Kosovo, Iraq and Afghanistan. I left the military in part because I grew exhausted watching successive governments make reckless strategic decisions while ignoring the existential crisis right here at home." "As a soldier and an engineer, I was used to conducting threat assessments and defensive plans. It’s clear to me that climate change is the single greatest threat to human security that we face. Removing climate resilience from our national defence and security agenda was an act of complete strategic blindness." "You cannot defend a nation if you refuse to acknowledge the very force that makes its infrastructure obsolete, that burns its countryside, and that threatens its food and water supply. Since leaving the armed forces, I’ve put my engineering background to work to try and mitigate some of these effects, working in renewables, timber frame building, manufacturing and clean heating and cooling systems." "From a technical standpoint, this crisis is entirely solvable. But more than that, transitioning to a renewables-based economy and climate resilience is a massive economic opportunity. It drives skilled domestic jobs, it fuels a healthy economy, and it shields our nation from the unpredictable chaos of global oil price volatility. Energy security is national security." "So the engineering is ready, the economic case is clear. What we lack is bold political leadership. Zack’s right. A government’s first duty is to keep its citizens safe. Ignoring extreme heat and raging fires isn’t just complacency, it’s a dereliction of duty." "We need an immediate COBRA-level response. We need climate change reinstated at the top of our defence and security agenda. And we need the bold leadership of Zack Polanski for our nation. Thank you."

🚨 UPDATE: HOMELESS VETERAN FINDS A HOME! 🚨 I am beyond thrilled to share some incredible news about Carl, the homeless veteran we've rallied around since before Christmas After being left to fend for himself in the freezing cold by a council that did too little, too late, Carl's fortunes have turned around. Thanks to the incredible support from our community, we've managed to secure Carl a new flat he can truly call home! 🍻 I was contacted by another veteran, shaun a former Royal Navy man who buys and renovates properties. He also converts vans into high quality campervans. Seeing my posts on X, he stepped up with an offer we couldn't refuse - a property ready for Carl. Today, we visited the flat together, and I am overjoyed to announce that Carl now has the keys to his new home. Massive thank you to Andrew Tate for his generous donation which provided Carl with a warm hotel stay over Christmas, giving him temporary respite from the harsh winter streets. Your contribution has been a beacon of hope when we needed it most. Thank you Robert Henry for all your help and support mate 💙 To everyone who offered to donate, shared my posts, or offered words of encouragement, your support has made this possible. Your collective efforts have changed a man's life. However, this victory is bittersweet. It's a stark reminder of how our government and local councils are failing not just our veterans but everyone experiencing homelessness. While we celebrate this success, we must also demand better from those in power. It's disgraceful that Carl was left to the elements, highlighting a systemic failure in support for those who served our country. The lack of initiative, the bureaucratic red tape, and the sheer neglect are unacceptable. We need immediate action to ensure no one, especially not veterans, faces such hardships. This isn't just about Carl; it's about the thousands still struggling. We need housing policies that work, support systems that don't fail, and leaders who prioritize human dignity over everything else. Let this be a moment of celebration but also a call to arms. Let's keep pushing for systemic change so that no one has to rely on the kindness of strangers to find warmth and shelter. Thank you again to everyone who helped make this happen. Let's keep the momentum going for Carl and for all those in need.

Wilberforce got the statue. This man got the mud. Thirty-five thousand miles of it. His name was Thomas Clarkson. Born in England. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Cambridgeshire. 1760. He was twenty-four years old when Cambridge set him an essay question. "Is it lawful to make slaves of others against their will?" He knew nothing about slavery. So he started reading. Two months later he couldn't stop. He won the prize and rode home to London with something nobody had given him. A conscience he couldn't put down. Halfway there, on a quiet country road, he stopped his horse. Sat in the silence of the English countryside. The trade was real. He had just proved it. And somebody had to stop it. So he gave up the church and got to work. Bristol. Liverpool. Every slave port in Britain. Into the taverns, the back rooms, the ships. Asking sailors what they had seen below decks. Men who had been there. Who knew what happened on the Middle Passage. Some refused. Some were threatened. Some were bought. Clarkson kept riding. Thirty-five thousand miles. Ten years. Every testimony written down in longhand on the road. All of it handed to a young MP named William Wilberforce. Wilberforce went to Parliament and gave the speeches. Clarkson saddled up and went back out. In 1792 they put a petition together. Not from London. Not from the powerful. From ordinary men and women. Market towns, village squares, chapel steps across England. Four hundred thousand signatures. The largest petition in British parliamentary history. Parliament voted it down. So they went again. And again. Eighteen years of going again. 25 March 1807. The Slave Trade Act passed. Britain outlawed the trade and turned the Royal Navy loose to hunt the ships. History gave Wilberforce the statue. Coleridge called Clarkson the moral steam engine of the abolition movement. Clarkson lived to see slavery abolished completely in 1833. An old man of seventy-three, who had started this at twenty-four. He died in 1846. The last surviving founder of the original committee. He never held office. Never gave the famous speeches. He just got back on the horse. For sixty years. Did they teach you his name? Together we keep our history alive. Be part of us. Be Proud Of Us. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

So he gave up the church and got to work. Bristol. Liverpool. Every slave port in Britain. Into the taverns, the back rooms, the ships. Asking sailors what they had seen below decks. Men who had been there. Who knew what happened on the Middle Passage. Some refused. Some were threatened. Some were bought. Clarkson kept riding. Thirty-five thousand miles. Ten years. Every testimony written down in longhand on the road. All of it handed to a young MP named William Wilberforce. Wilberforce went to Parliament and gave the speeches. Clarkson saddled up and went back out. In 1792 they put a petition together. Not from London. Not from the powerful. From ordinary men and women. Market towns, village squares, chapel steps across England. Four hundred thousand signatures. The largest petition in British parliamentary history. Parliament voted it down. So they went again. And again. Eighteen years of going again. 25 March 1807. The Slave Trade Act passed. Britain outlawed the trade and turned the Royal Navy loose to hunt the ships. History gave Wilberforce the statue. Coleridge called Clarkson the moral steam engine of the abolition movement. Clarkson lived to see slavery abolished completely in 1833. An old man of seventy-three, who had started this at twenty-four. He died in 1846. The last surviving founder of the original committee. He never held office. Never gave the famous speeches. He just got back on the horse. For sixty years. Did they teach you his name? Together we keep our history alive. Be part of us. Be Proud Of Us. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

🇬🇧 The story we got told is that kings made British history. That parliaments did. That armies did. That isn't what the record shows. 📜 1215. The barons dragged King John into a field at Runnymede and made him sign. Two years later ordinary people came back, and the Charter of the Forest gave common people written rights for the first time in history. British people stood together, and they won. ⚔️ 1381. A hundred thousand peasants, labourers and craftsmen marched on London with farm tools and the longbows the Crown had trained them to use. A fourteen-year-old king rode out to meet them and negotiated face to face with a peasant at Smithfield. Serfdom never recovered. British people stood together, and they won. 🕯️ 1791. Three hundred thousand British households stopped buying sugar. No leader. No orders. Women led it, putting notices in their windows that said this household does not use slave-grown sugar. Sales collapsed. It started the momentum that ended the slave trade. The Royal Navy spent the next fifty years intercepting slave ships. British taxpayers paid the loan until 2015. British people stood together, and they won. 🌳 1834. Six Dorset farm labourers asked for a living wage. The government made it illegal overnight and shipped them to Australia in irons. Eight hundred thousand people signed a petition. Tens of thousands marched through London. The Tolpuddle Martyrs came home, and the global trade union movement had its moment. British people stood together, and they won. 🏭 1862. The American Civil War cut off the cotton. Half a million Lancashire mill workers were starving. Slave-grown Confederate cotton was on the docks, and would have ended the famine overnight. They voted, in meeting after meeting, not to touch it. They chose hunger over slavery. Abraham Lincoln wrote them a letter calling it an example to the world. British people stood together, and they won. No empire did any of this. No king ordered it. No parliament voted for it. A field in Runnymede. A road to London. A kitchen window. A tree in Dorset. A meeting hall in Manchester. Every time it mattered most, British people stood together. And every time they did, they changed what it meant to be human. This is who we are. This is what we're capable of. Now it's our turn. Find each other. Stand together. The next chapter is ours to write. Your support pays for the research, the production, and the hours it takes to get it right. Stories like these don't find themselves. Be part of us. 👉 👈 Be Proud Of Us. 🙏🇬🇧
