After bringing together 70,000 people to make complaints, Good Law Project has joined forces with LGBTQ+ orgs to make further submissions to Ofcom on why GB News’ must be sanctioned for repeating the damaging trope that the LGBTQ+ community includes “paedos” 🚨 @goodlawproject.bsky.social

Political think tanks shouldn’t benefit from charitable status. We asked the Charity Commission to investigate right wing think-tank the IEA. It refused. We pushed and it’s now launched an investigation into “the trustees’ management of perceptions of potential political bias” 🎉🎉

God bless the person who donated a fiver, because somehow it makes this even funnier than if he has raised nothing.

🔴 For *four years* officials refused to release names of all companies linked to Conservative donors and party figures put in the 'VIP' lane for bumper Covid contracts

Now a judge has ordered them to.

"GB News is no stranger to spouting hatred and toxic lies. They take pride in it, and pretend the rules don’t matter. It’s clearly illegal to stir up hatred by broadcasting a poisonous myth." www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

"Good Law Project, a campaign group, wrote to the Commons standards commissioner this week asking why the support was not registered with parliament as a benefit on Farage’s register of interests." www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

⚡️63% of Ukrainians approve Zelensky as president, poll shows.

🚨NEW 🚨

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful.

There are more than 10m children in school in the UK…but, per Times, 3,000 might move to state sector because of VAT rise…so Whitehall is “braced” 😲😲😲

Says a lot about UK media bubble, the way this story is reported.

You pay VAT on luxuries. Private schooling is that.

Journalistic freedom must be respected. If journalists handover their materials to the police, trust in journalists will be diminished and important stories won’t get told. I’m delighted we @goodlawproject.bsky.social were able to support Joel Goodman @pixel8foto.bsky.social and win this case!

Will get this framed. Thrilled that my piece honouring Madame Pelicot is the cover.

I was in the House of Commons yesterday to support this backbench session on lawsuits that suppress free speech. Thanks to @tbij.bsky.social, @indexoncensorship.org, and others, MPs shared stories previously untold due to legal threats. Labour must urgently bring forward anti-SLAPP legislation

That's up by more than 1,100%.
And NB these aren't just ANY goods. They're precisely the machinery/car imports we can no longer send to Russia. All going to Kyrgyzstan. And then almost certainly onwards to Russia (tho the paper trail tends to end when goods leave UK)
