We did it. We saved pop culture.

The humanitarian situation in Gaza is getting worse. Heavy rain. Flooded tents. The reality on the ground is heartbreaking. The UK government will not stand by. We will not rest until we bring an end to the intolerable suffering.

The Greatest BTCC Race Of All Time:

'Sir' Stephen Fry at Oxford Union debate: The girls raped by foreigners in Rotherham were 'child prostitutes'. The Age of Consent is subjective. No one should go to jail for raping a minor if there is 'consent'. The MONSTERS hide in plain sight!

🔥BRAVEST OF THE BRAVE 🇬🇧🇳🇵 🟢THE GURKHAS IN THE FALKLANDS 1st Battalion, 7th Duke of Edinburgh's Own Gurkha Rifles | San Carlos, 1982 On 1 June 1982, the men of the 1st Battalion, 7th Duke of Edinburgh's Own Gurkha Rifles (1/7 GR) landed at San Carlos Bay in the Falkland Islands, as part of Britain's 5th Infantry Brigade during Operation Corporate. Having travelled thousands of miles aboard the famous ocean liner QE2, the Gurkhas arrived in the South Atlantic carrying a proud regimental tradition built on discipline, courage and generations of distinguished military service. Their arrival marked the beginning of an important chapter in the battalion's history. Following their landing, D Company remained at San Carlos while the remainder of the battalion was flown to Goose Green. There, the Gurkhas helped clear the remains of the earlier fighting and guarded approximately 500 Argentine prisoners of war. As the British advance towards Port Stanley continued, the battalion undertook patrols and moved east to join the final phase of the campaign. ⚔️ THE FINAL ADVANCE: MOUNT WILLIAM By June 1982, the Gurkhas had been assigned an important role in the final operations around Port Stanley. Their objective was Mount William, where they were expected to advance alongside the wider British force as the Argentine defensive positions around the capital came under increasing pressure. The planned operation was delayed by the fierce fighting on Mount Tumbledown. On 14 June, the Gurkhas began their advance in daylight rather than under the cover of darkness. They came under Argentine artillery and mortar fire, suffering further casualties as they moved towards their objective. However, Argentine resistance was collapsing, and the expected assault on Mount William did not develop into a major battle. The Argentine forces surrendered later that day. Their contribution formed an important part of the final British advance towards Port Stanley. 🌺 A LEGACY OF SERVICE AND COURAGE For more than two centuries, Gurkha soldiers have served with distinction in British and other military forces, earning a remarkable reputation for professionalism, loyalty and courage. Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw famously expressed their reputation in these words: "If a man says he is not afraid of dying, he is either lying or is a Gurkha." The story of the 1st Battalion, 7th Gurkha Rifles in the Falklands is not simply about a military campaign. It is also about dedication, comradeship and the extraordinary commitment of soldiers who travelled far from their homeland to serve alongside their British comrades. Today, we remember their service, honour their contribution and recognise the enduring place of the Gurkhas in Britain's military history. Jai Mahakali, Ayo Gorkhali! 🫡🇬🇧🇳🇵 Lest We Forget. 🌺
