Elon Musk is deliberately using his platform to poison our politics and divide our country.

It's time for the government to wake up to the threat he poses to our democracy.

Freddie Mercury came to the UK as a kid because people that looked like him were being killed back home in Zanzibar.

In the UK, he formed Queen.

In the UK, he became a global icon.

As Nigel Farage complains that he feels more worried than ever about the state of broken Britain, police have identified the person who broke it.

This is an extraordinary piece of telly. Utterly damming of the corruption of the last Conservative Government - and of our political and legal systems which have failed even to aspire to holding those chancers to account.

I don’t have a lot of time for petitions any more but this one has got to have legs. Because Musk is an ignorant, entitled, too-rich-to-care-about-the-harm-he-does arsehole.

There are lines you don’t cross and he’s crossed them multiple times with NO GOV pushback

So I’ve signed

I hope you do too
Progressive outlet The Lead have launched a petition to ban Elon Musk from the UK following his incitement at the Tommy Robinson demo.

Perhaps someone will launch one for Govt departments and politicians to ditch X...

So either Nigel Farage lied about buying a house in Clacton, when he wanted to pretend he gave a shit about the place, or he lied about it being his girlfriend's house, when he was caught avoiding stamp duty. Either way he's a lying chancer.

Conservative MPs jeered when I urged the Prime Minister to help end the starvation and suffering in Gaza. Sickening, but they won’t stop me raising this.

Danish activists have been painting their flag on roundabouts. Either that or British 'patriots' are a bunch of thick twats, which I find hard to believe.

So it sounds like Trump is going to give Putin another two weeks, on top of the ten days he gave him instead of the original 50 days he gave him, after the two weeks he gave him following the first two weeks he gave him.
TACO Trump strikes again.

Berman: Was the President right about the polling?

Enten: No. If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself.

Credit to the BBC’s Jeremy Bowen.

Defying the Israeli ban on filming Gaza from above, Bowen instead describes the carnage & genocide he can see:

“I can tell you that communities in the north of Gaza that I knew well…with tens of thousands of people…are flat. There’s nothing left of them.”

🚨TRUMP COMING TO THE UK

It would be such a shame for Donald if this photo of Trump with Jeffrey Epstein appeared absolutely EVERYWHERE on his tour of the UK. It would truly be such a huge shame if everyone donated to make that happen 👀 link in bio x
