The committee's chair @sarahowen.org.uk is completely right - X is not an appropriate channel for comms. Quite the opposite

It's important to remember that this public desire to reverse Brexit has happened WITHOUT any of the main parties calling for it, and without them even explaining the benefits of EU and Single Market membership for the last decade. The people have come to this decision through their lived experience

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.
Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.
Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.
It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

An off-duty ICE agent was just confronted in Minneapolis after people noticed a Nazi SS lightning bolt tattoo on his neck.
If youβre proud enough to ink it on your neck, why are you running when people notice?
