Could you please clarify to your followers that what I actually said was: "In some respects this government under Keir Starmer looks more Tory than the Tories". I had just spelt out exactly which respects I meant: its anti-protest laws and the Planning and Infrastructure Bill.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Right now, I’m reflecting upon whether, given how the world might look in 30, 20 or even 10 years, whether that extra decade is even worth passing on fries, ketchup and mayo. #longevity -vs- #philosophy

The term Antifa is a shortening of antifascism. It's NOT a formal organization. It's a belief. A really good one.
The stupidity of trying to declare it a "terrorist organization" is just ludicrous. It would be like doing the same thing with the word democracy.
What the hell is so hard about this?!

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Actually, when only 97% of the stories about a person who is 100% bad are bad, it means someone is the media isn’t doing their job.

This is the biggest attack on free speech since the McCarthy era but it also has significantly less popular consensus behind it than the second Red Scare. It's being done on behalf of a minority faction led by the most unpopular president in modern history. Organizing against this can win.

Campaign group Everyone Hates Elon have installed a spoof tribute to Jeffrey Epstein from Donald Trump on a bench at Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeen, Scotland.
It comes after US lawmakers published an Epstein 'birthday book' with an alleged note from Trump.
