It got pretty intense on @JeremyVineOn5 as @theJeremyVine, @lara_e_brown and I discussed the political response to the brutal murder of #HenryNowak. Have the police over-corrected because they fear being called racist, or are #Farage & co using a tried and tested playbook?
"There are plenty of opportunists out to make capital out of this."
@bonsuman says history is repeating itself as Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson seek to use the Henry Nowak case to tell white people that equity is a loss for them.

Sounds like things haven't changed much since #Lithuanian football "fans" tried to hound @BigBadAdebayo out of their country. @LithuaniaMFA, where do you stand on this shameful story?

A Black woman is facing possible jail time in Lithuania after a ski resort refund dispute escalated into a criminal hate speech case over comments about āwhite womanās tearsā.
Lithuanian authorities accuse her of āmockingā white people.

"The Ā£5m gift to Farage is likely to raise fresh questions for the Reform leader, given what he said in the run-up to the last election". If this stuff is emerging 3 years from the next General Election, imagine what may come out as we get closer. #Farage

The day after more Brits run the @LondonMarathon than ever before, today we learn from @BBCNews that
"UK healthy life expectancy falls by two years in past decade". We really are a divided nation in more ways than you think. #healthy #longevity

"Afrikaners were at the heart of the apartheid system of white minority rule from 1948-1994, leading to decades of hostility between them and South Africa's Black majority. Wow, @PBS, this is one of the most benign takes on the hell of Afrikaner apartheid.

This @Wimbledon ladies singles final is a disaster. #Anisimova is crushed by the weight of the occasion. This could be over within an hour... Another reason to have the women play best of 5 in the grand slams - at least in the semis and the final. Sad.

Another day, another s**show at @NetworkRailEUS. As ever, no explanation, no direction, and everyone is bewildered. For one of our key transport hubs to be so lacking resilience, 20 years after #7/7, the mind boggles...

We know that the @ukhomeoffice can be a heartless organisation, but keeping a Ā£3K health surcharge from a man whose wife died before coming to the UK is surely next level. theguardian.com/politics/202ā¦

So itās now very confusing. On the one hand i have an infectious disease doctor telling me one thing while on the other hand i have a podcaster, Hollywood actor and environmental lawyer telling me something completely different. Itās very difficult to decide.

Faced with a choice between #NigelFarage and #TommyRobinson, #Musk chose the jailbird. Any guesses which way #Trump will go when he has to decide between #Musk and #Farage? As they say "all revolutions eat their children"...

Well, this is a surprise! Elon is a remarkable individual but on this I am afraid I disagree.
My view remains that Tommy Robinson is not right for Reform and I never sell out my principles.

āI donāt really think he knows what heās talking about.ā
Robert F Kennedy Jr could āmake a bit of a fool of himselfā if he is confirmed as Trumpās health secretary, former chief White House ethics lawyer Richard Painter tells Henry Bonsu.

There are digital demons whose sole purpose to divide us. People - fact check EVERYTHING, especially when it comes to race or identity.

Those two young women came across wonderfully well but only one of them is getting abuse.
That's because of brazen distortions, manipulation and lies of bigots sharing videos.
It's not fair and it's not ok.
I wish both women and their children a good and healthy Christmas š

I've watched #RemembranceDay on @BBCOne for as long as I can remember. Has #DavidDimbleby ever gone into such detail about the soldiers from the "Old Empire" who supported GB? He said it was "interesting". In these days of hate/ disinformation such facts are much more than that.

Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron, May, Johnson, Sunak and Truss - eight living former British Prime Ministers at one #RemembranceDay. What does this say about (parroting the late, great Sir Robin Day) the "here-today, gone-tomorrow" nature of today's politics?
