Matthew Goodwin objects to prosecuting this: ‘I think it’s time for the British to gang together, hit the streets and start the slaughter. Violence and murder is the only way now. Start off burning every migrant hotel then head off to MPs’ houses and Parliament, we need to take over by FORCE.’

The UAE where hugging in public can get you arrested, where human rights barely exist, where foreign workers are routinely abused, where critics of the regime routinely disappear, where an Indian nanny was shot by firing squad in March & where marital rape is not a criminal offence but being gay is.

One benchmark of a democracy is whether it is willing to hold those who have served at the very highest levels to account.
Can you imagine the United States ever doing something like this?

The @libdems.org.uk and I have written to the Conservative leader urging her to condemn the comments by one of her MPs who said large numbers of legally settled families must be deported, in order to ensure the UK is mostly “culturally coherent”.

The man whose presence might lead to Tel Aviv football fans being “falsely associated with his far-right activities,” has just visited Tel Aviv as an honoured guest of the Israeli government. Riddle me that.
A Maccabi club source told the UK Jewish News that the intervention of far right political activist Tommy Robinson pledging to attend the game as a Maccabi fan was the "final straw" for their decision about the risks of accepting tickets amid this row

Saw this on TikTok, where ethno-nationalist tries to mislead audience. 1 in 5 living in Ireland was not born here. The biggest group is from the island of Britain, the remainder is dominated by EU nationals. 1 in 5 Irish born people live abroad. Ethno-nationalism relies on lies & misinformation.

This is spot on
Johnson’s cull of MPs prepared to tell the truth about Brexit consigned the Tories to the absurdity & irrelevance they currently enjoy. The media’s pitiful complicity in & failure to explain this lets Farage move in to the vacated space despite embodying the stupidity & bigotry that did for them.
