How the fuck is it hard to leave? You just delete your account and be done. I did it with facebook 6 years ago.

To anybody still using X: sexual abuse content is the final straw, it’s time to leave | Marie Le Conte
It was hard for me to quit Elon Musk’s poisoned platform, but I urge others to do the same, especially in light of Grok’s imagery of women and children, says journalist Marie Le Conte

Well done @goodlawproject.org for pushing this.
As set out (👇) we filed a complaint with Ofcom last November - it has now asked for a meeting - about X's failure to comply with its duties under the Online Safety Act to take down material inciting racial and religious hatred.

We expect to announce very shortly a further complaint to Ofcom.
X is not above the law

My votes are in for Best Regional and Best New Play.

A powerful, emotive play but with a Northern sense of humour. Probably the best theatre production I have seen and one that will stay with me for a lifetime.

Nigel Farage is too scared to debate Zack Polanski.

Pass it on.

"The UK is not Hungary, but the direction it is taking is alarmingly familiar. Make no mistake, this new authority in the UK may not be wielded by those who promise to use it responsibly. Laws outlast governments."
Slowly but surely, a state can repress its people. Why is the UK channelling Viktor Orbán’s Hungary? | Lydia Gall
I know enough about the erosion of civil rights to fear what I now see in the UK. Britons should understand how this ends, says Lydia Gall of Human Rights Watch

How Europe can respond to American aggression in 3 steps:

1. Designate the Heritage Foundation as a terrorist organisation.

2. Apply reciprocal travel bans on US officials.

3. Force American social media companies to sell their European parts to a European company
