So what I learned from this project, without naming names, is that there is no solidarity among the prisoners I communicated with. Basically, it is every man for himself. It's an ugly truth but there it is. Where does one go from here?

Engagement
19 posts held, back to 7 January 2025 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 19 posts for this entry, the most recent from 10 August 2025. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Lifetime counters from Telegram’s own channel header, read 8 August 2026 — not the date at the top of this page, which is when the subscriber count was last read. Below Telegram’s rounding threshold, so these counts are exact.

Measured directly from 1 video with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.
Reaction mix
15 reactions across 7 posts, in 3 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 60.0% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| ❤ | 9 | 60.0% | |
| 👍 | 4 | 26.7% | |
| 😱 | 2 | 13.3% |
No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 7 of the 19 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 15reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 19 most recent posts we hold, published 7 January 2025 to 10 August 2025, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

The amount of support Goodwin is owed by us is substantial. He spent seven years in prison for fending off an attack by anti-White terrorist who assaulted an old man with metal pipes, striking him in the head several times. Goodwin and others came to his rescue and were thrown in prison for years as a result. This man is owed a good financial start to help him pick his life back up after the injustice he was dealt.

As a rejected applicant to join Homeland, it doesn't look like I missed anything! 🤣
Imagine starting a political party with the sole intention of bringing about remigration, then announcing that you won’t be standing any parliamentary candidates for TWO DECADES. This would mean contesting Westminster constituencies not in 2029, but in 2044! By 2044, White British children will be a minority in schools (currently 61.3 per cent), White British births will be a minority in maternity wards (currently 5…
It's a funny thing, the question of the restriction of speech. I could live under a regime of either total free speech, OR prohibition of ANY speech that hurts ANYONE's feelings, or anything in between, as long as it is impartially applied. Just tell me the rules! Impartiality is a necessary feature of any directive that purports to be a principle, or to be just. What I find utterly intolerable, loathsome and contemp…
Being surprised is a welcome phenomenon - I believe it is a sign of neuro-plasticity. I recall how much, during the late 20th century, people would talk about the year 2000 as a great milestone, when we would certainly be living and working on the Moon, would have flying cars and fusion energy. I'm surprised none of those things panned out.
It still surprises me how very very few of this channel's subscribers have ever forwarded prisoner contact details to add to our database. As my previous message describes, it's trivially easy to find them out if you have even a little bit of personal info about them.
As I've said before, I don't use social media, unless you count Telegram. Anyway, I'm aware of how how much personal information many people put on sites such as Facebook. On impulse I thought I'd look up someone I went to school with. There were literally dozens with the same name even within the same country; seems like every man and his dog. So I added one or two details to my search and one particular entry poppe…

Midnight snacking.
Showing the 12 most recent of 19 posts we hold for @tcppuk. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Forward network
Republishes
Channels on the register whose posts this channel has forwarded.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.

@tcppuk named 1 handle that resolve to nothing today. That is a fact about the reference, not necessarily a fact about the handle’s history — see the two groups below.
Most of these may never have existed as a live channel at all.A handle a channel names can be a typo, an aspirational name nobody registered, or a channel that was already gone before this one ever mentioned it. Unless a row below is marked evidenced, all we know is that it references a handle that is not a live channel today — not that anything “died”. How this is measured.
Never seen alive
References a handle that is not a live channel — we have no record it ever was one.
