Never mind banning social media for the under 16s. Ban it for the over 60s, they seem more susceptible to misinformation.

Not sure if Man United owner Jim Ratcliffe will see this being as he literally migrated to Monaco to avoid paying tax in the UK, but we wanted to put this up outside the stadium anyway….

X is designed to radicalise people.

The algorithm promotes Elon Musk's agenda to promote racists and people who want violence bought - specifically - to the streets of Britain.

Members of Parliament, major institutions and the media should not be there.

I hope prospective Reform voters look at what that brand of MAGA style politics is delivering in the USA and think again. Same toxic formula.

This crap is as dumb as Brexit, and that's as dumb as it gets.

So, Le Pen gets banned from running for election because she’s found guilty of embezzlement and her far-right fanclub starts huffing and puffing about whether this is democratic.
Err. Yes.
If you’re found guilty of corruption, you’re unfit for public office. It doesn’t matter how ‘popular’ you are.

It’s genuinely pointless asking a Tory politician what they think of Labour’s Spring Statement. These are the people who smashed up the economy and our public services, imposed a ruinous Brexit and delivered rampant inequality and govt debt.
Arsonists tutting at Labour while the fire still rages.

Ooh, I know this: it's because he's a bullshitting, imbecilic narcissist who is either (best case) too incompetent to avoid being played by Putin, or (worst case) an active Kremlin asset working for Putin from inside the Oval Office.

Do I get a prize?

They are arguing, endlessly, that illegally inciting acts of terror online is ‘free speech’ while silencing dissent, targeting journalists & telling an invaded ally what he is & is not allowed to say during a live television broadcast are all fine.

The EU wasn’t formed to screw anyone. Quite the opposite. It was formed to maintain peace, to build respect among our nations, to create free and fair trade, and to strengthen our transatlantic friendship. As simple as that. 🇪🇺🇺🇸

Thought experiment for Labour…
With over 4yrs and a huge majority, why not stir it up? Pitch your tent defiantly on the liberal lawn, loudly reject the epic failures of Brexit and rightwing immigration ideology and see how many liberal votes you gain instead of chasing Reform into a toxic dead end?

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

When Laura K insists rejoining the EU wouldn't bring growth for the UK as EU countries on average don't grow much atm, it is (deliberately?) misleading.

The UK's economy can of course grow if trade with EU countries increases, no matter how well they are doing for themselves.

10. But I came to see that those of us who do not subscribe to Musk’s grim project are being used as groundbait: stimulating the feeding frenzy of 15-minute, 24-hour hate that now powers X. Brute force – the unmediated power of money – has beaten humanity, intelligence, humour and democracy.

Tiktok has been banned in the US on the grounds that China could use it "to manipulate and control Americans by spreading propaganda and misinformation." In other words, China *might* do exactly what Elon Musk *has done* with X.
It's a blatant double standard.
