I'm a 3rd year fine art student and my final show has been censored by @NottmCollege.

Not because of nudity, offensive language, hate-speech or anything similar.

But because it contained criticism of the College.

1/17 Image So what did they censor?

The Alphabet.

Yes, an educational establishment censored the alphabet.

Anti-Lockdown Protest in Wollaton Park, Nottingham.

A.K.A. March of the Morons

A live tweeting thread. I'm about to headout to cover the "protest" in Nottingham. Part of a series organised by neo-nzxi, anti-vax nut jobs.

Yes, there is a contradiction in going to cover it but it's important not to just ignore the far-right. When we can't counter-protest must monitor their actions.

On Thursday I'm going to be voting for a candidate who I don't like, who is running for a leader I really don't like.

But I'm a remainer first and this is just the next step towards our goal.

1/ Like all remainers, I'm worried about this election and what it will means for our fight.

Please remember that 18 months ago the idea of a second referendum was laughable.

But after a long hard journey it is now the policy of most political parties.

We made that happen.

"It's How You Say it"

Live-tweets from the Farage rally in #Nottingham rally looking at their communication and oratory. First, a bit of background.

I do online marketing and I've studied and taught public speaking. So this thread isn't about the politics but the message and how it's being expressed.

Europe's Second Biggest Sundial

(A Story of Anger, Brexit and Forgotten Britain, or Why We Need MPs Like @GloriaDePiero To Rise To The Challenge)

(1 of 22) Why would a small town in rural Nottinghamshire build, what was then, Europe's largest sundial?

Why would a small town in rural Nottinghamshire vote 70%/30% to leave the EU?

Why are these two questions connected?
