"Do you have to be white to be English?"

That this is even being asked is a sign of how much racism has been legitimised by our media & politics over the last two decades

Labour just don't get it. They don't get how scared people are with extreme weather becoming our new normal.

We need voices in parliament that will force them to take wildfires seriously, not quietly shirk responsibility.

NHS England has said that you cannot opt out of Palantir having your medical data and they refuse to review their policy.

So if you live in England, Palantir, Donald Trump, Netanyahu and co have access to all your medical data.

Nobody voted for this.

It's a pity Jason Arday wasn't a rightwing journalist arrested for beating his pregnant girlfriend. The obituaries would have been somewhat more sympathetic then.

So Nigel F takes a £5m bung and at most gets gently challenged by the media. Accusations are made of an academic and it is turned into a blood sport by gutter journalists who will experience no consequences for their actions.

Reform are furious about LGBT books invading Warwick libraries. Reform leader George Finch said he was acting on “a number” of complaints from local people.
So Labour MP Rachel Taylor asked the council for the actual figures. There have been zero complaints.

Had to disable comments on clip of me talking about Jason Arday yesterday on lbc because of sheer volume vile comments suggesting (just as they did with George Floyd) that he ‘deserved’ it.

I think Black people are getting pretty sick of the ‘be perfect or expect us to kill you’ routine.

Jason Arday might have lied about the amount he was paid to write a book.

Michael Gove literally bragged the £10bn stolen during the Covid PPE scam was an 'honest mistake'.

One was instantly forgotten about, the other was hounded to his death.

The UK doesn't have to burn Fossil Fuel, we are one of the windiest places on the planet.

In fact we could generate 700% of our electricity usage from Wind Energy alone.

The only reason we don't is because the Fossil Fuel billionaires are blocking it from happening.
