🔴Kemi Badenoch’s Refusal to Distance Herself From Elon Musk is an Act of Moral Cowardice

The Conservative Party leader’s refusal to criticise the X owner’s dangerous misinformation campaign against the UK should exclude her from ever returning to high office

The whole point of the GMC is to keep patients safe from harm.

But what if, like OFWAT & OFCOM, it’s turning into another politically-neutered, failing regulator?

⏰ There are JUST 7 days left to stop Ofwat hiking YOUR bills to protect England’s privatised water firms.

They’ve already extracted £92 BILLION.

Bills could rise by up to 80% — you shouldn’t pay AGAIN to bail them out.

Sign the petition to stop the hikes... 👇 weownit.org.uk/act-now/stop...
Say NO to a shareholder bailout: stop the water bill hikes!

Tommy Robinson sent a letter to himself, he meant to log out and send it from a different account.

But he didn't.

Charlotte Church sang From the River to the Sea at a fundraising event for Palestinians and now all the usual people are screaming antisemitism and trying to cancel her.

RP if you stand with Charlotte Church and Palestine.
