How did we get here?!

Regular readers and former viewers will know all too well my utter disdain for the Offcommunists — a label I can’t claim credit for (hat tip to

Dan Wootton

who first muttered it in sheer exasperation), but one that hits the nail so squarely on the head I’m amazed it’s not been banned under the Online Safety Act for causing “non-trivial psychological harm” to quangocrats.

Ofcom, let’s be honest, has long been a safe haven for liberal-left identikit careerists — the sort who genuinely believe "diversity of thought" means hiring a Guardian columnist with a slightly different brand of oat milk. It's a Blairite bunker where groupthink goes to feel validated. Their idea of "balanced broadcasting" is two like-minded liberal talking heads nodding along in unison while sipping from their BBC-emblazoned keep cups, discussing how dreadful the country has become under the influence of working-class voters.

To them, true debate — the sort that might involve, heaven forbid, a real conservative with opinions not cleared by the North London dinner party circuit with Emily Maitlis holding office as its chair — is dangerous and unfit for public consumption.§ So they quietly nudge it off air. Or better still, make sure it never gets on air in the first place. That’s how it’s been for years: a polite, passive-aggressive form of censorship wrapped in the comforting tones of the Today Programme.

But now, my friends, the game has changed — and not in some abstract, theoretical, think-tanky way. We’re not talking about a few grumpy producers cutting out the occasional spicy opinion. No, we’re talking about legal power. Ofcom has been handed the authority to decide what you can see, say, and share online. Memes, jokes, livestreams, Facebook rants, Substack posts like this one — all now within the bureaucratic crosshairs of Britain’s new Ministry of Truth.

This isn’t a regulator anymore. It’s a censor with a press release.

And under the shiny, focus-grouped name of the Online Safety Act, they’ve dressed it all up in that sickly-sweet language of “protection.” Protect the children. Protect the vulnerable. Protect the public from mean tweets. Because nothing says progressive governance quite like arresting people for saying something someone else didn’t like.

It’s the sort of deranged logic that only a quango could love: “We must destroy free speech to save you from words.” Arrests are up. People are being jailed. And Ofcom’s response? A smug shrug and another roundtable on combating hate speech in hamster forums. That isn’t a joke. It isn’t made up. It actually happened.

We’ve crossed a threshold. What started as a supposedly noble crusade to keep kids away from dodgy sites (although I have many opinions about that Netflix show Herr Starmer is showing in our schools) has morphed into a state-sanctioned clampdown on ideas. And all of it signed off by politicians who once claimed to defend liberty — and are now too spineless, clueless, or complicit to do a damn thing about it.

🗣️ Free Speech Under Fire: Britain's New Censorship Regime

While our politicians posture about “protecting people online,” they’ve quietly unleashed one of the most draconian censorship regimes in the Western world — the Online Safety Act. Passed by the Conservative Party, which Kemi Badenoch claims to be the free speech party, in the name of safetyism. As I outlined in my video earlier this week.

Cooked up under successive Tory Governments and now actively enforced and weaponised under Sir Keir Starmer, it gives a Blairite blob called Ofcom sweeping powers to police what we say, read, and share online.

This isn’t some theoretical concern anymore. This is real. It’s happening. People are being arrested, charged, convicted — for speech. And not even the wrong speech, just speech the State doesn’t like.

But now, something extraordinary is happening: it’s not Britain that’s defending British liberty — it’s Trump’s America. Elon Musk. JD Vance. The US State Department. All warning us about where this is headed.

If you’re waiting for our political class to say it, don’t bother. They’re all either too gutless or too gleeful. But thankfully, across the pond, the alarm bells are finally ringing.
