Lord Patten 100% reflects my view, particularly the point about the dangers of this all undermining our democracy
Remember the likes of Trump and Farage want democracy gone. It doesn't serve their purpose

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten.
"I don't think that we should allow ourselves to be bullied into thinking that the BBC is only any good, if it reflects the prejudice of the last person who shouted at it." ~AA

They are lovely when they fly to roost.
I can't describe how beautiful tonight's murder of crows against a red sky was.
I'm kindof emotional about it.

It should be a litmus test for Democratic presidential primary candidates whether they will restore the White House and DC public properties to exactly the way they were before the Palm Beach lounge lizard decided to turn it into Mar-a-Lago meets 1936 Nuremberg.

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?
TRUMP: Suspending who?
Q: Habeas corpus
TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Breaking: President Trump announced that he has brokered a peace deal between the Montagues and the Capulets, ending a bitter, ancient feud lasting decades, and bringing peace to the streets in Verona, Italy.
This is the eight such peace deal made by the President this year. 🕊️

Much more of this. The NHS argument is an effective one; not only does it point out the very real impact Reform's policies would have, but it also humanizes migrants as real people (i.e., treating you at hospital), rather than speaking of them as a singular mass of figures & fiscal/economic costings
Reform’s immigration plan falls apart on hard contact with evidence, economics and any form of engaged brain. Never be afraid to stand up for this country and its decency and future by giving them short shrift.

State Department to ban immigrants speaking ill of Charlie Kirk. VP to fly his body to Arizona on Air Force 2. Trump to award him the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Journalists getting fired for asking the right questions. We are spiraling into a dystopia beyond our imagining.
