David Lammy’s new diversity plan is almost certainly unlawful. I have referred him to the Equality and Human Rights Commission.

What I don't understand is the hatred some people have for Nigel Farage when I post anything supporting him I get replies saying I'm thick, racist & worse, I am told to look at his policies (I have) and what I see is a man who has been standing up for this country for decades 🩵

🚨THIS IS JUDGE LORD JUSTICE TIMOTHY HOLROYDE This is the judge who REFUSED Lucy Connolly her appeal after she was convicted for a social media post. Meanwhile this very same judge CUT the sentence of Labour's Lord Ahmed by THREE YEARS after he was convicted of child sex offences. His sentence was reduced to just two and a half years from five and half years. SHARE THIS EVERYWHERE!!

I don't campaign against trans people. I campaign against sick people like you who exploit and lie to confused unhappy people and tell them they've been born in the wrong body. These are real lives you tamper with. Shame on you.
Replying to @JuliaHB1
What is terrifying is your very public campaign against trans people. You will go down in history for your reporting on these matters. These are real lives you tamper with. Shame on you and your XX chromosomes.

🚨UPDATE : Not only may Keir Starmers social media ban be in breach of Article 8 it may now also be in breach of Article 10 of the ECHR. And yes the ECHRs rights extends to children.
🚨 BREAKING : Could Keir Starmer’s under-16 social media ban breach Article 8 of the ECHR? Some people have claimed that the ban will directly breach privacy laws/rights that come from the European Convention on Human Rights.

Reminder. A social media ban was NOT in Labour's 2024 Manifesto. Neither was Digital I.D. Oh, or State Suicide. Or binning the two child benefit cap.

Labour MP Kim Leadbeater on Radio 4 this morning bemoaning the polarisation in Britain and arguing that the "forces" trying to "divide us" need to be "challenged more". I'd pay a bit more attention if she had spoken out a bit more forcefully against the extremist forces in her own constituency who hounded the Batley schoolteacher and sent him into hiding. Instead, she released a statement (a year later) which included the line: "The reason I am not discussing this matter publicly is that I have specifically been asked not to by the family involved." How brave.

BBC News had a good run, inoculated from market forces and producing news - increasingly aimed, not at customers - but newsroom peers and awards judges. In recent years, most notably its coverage of the 2015 migrant crisis, Brexit, Trump and Israel, BBC News showed itself to be institutionally incapable of balance. It doesn’t deserve to be decimated. It deserves to be shut down.

Australia banned X for children but not BlueSky. Britain is banning X for children but not BlueSky. This proves one thing. It's not about protecting children. It's about censorship and controlling the narrative.

This censorship law is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. The real goal is to enable the UK government to track everyone.
It’s important to know that the social media ban for under 16s is not a ban for under 16s. It is a ban on *selected* social media for EVERYONE. Until you identify yourself.

Simples: Release tens of billions from Ed Miliband’s net zero follies for defence capital investment. Release billions more for day-to-day spending by some tough love for the 10m of working age not working and living on benefits. Plus abandon triple lock. Go through current defence spending like a dose of salts to root out current waste and inefficiency (which is mega). Cull legacy programmes for platforms soon to be obsolete.
Revealing that on @bbclaurak this morning none of the panel - Carns, Kidron and Madeley - could answer how they would find the extra money needed for Defence. It's very easy to criticise government but much more difficult to govern

The Orwellian Online Safety Act is about to become even more censorious. Technology Secretary Liz Kendall has announced that next week she will lay an update to the Online Safety Act in Parliament requiring services to take “quicker action” to remove content during “times of crisis”. The Free Speech Union will be keeping a very close eye on it. Who will decide what constitutes a “time of crisis”? Could that include a climate crisis, meaning providers would be pressured to remove criticism of Ed Miliband’s Net Zero policies? Given how damaging the Online Safety Act has already been to free speech, we have little faith that either this Government or Ofcom will exercise any new powers impartially.
