@trussliz There’s no doubt that Starmer’s repeated comments referencing ‘crashing the economy’ might ‘damage your reputation’ - So say your lawyers…. Let’s just ponder this for a while. Sigh.

@joncoopertweets Because….he’s just soiled his diaper and he’s short on get-out plans!

@DavidLammy Shamefull and disappointing!

“Today Elon Musk’s daughter let loose in an Earth scorching takedown of her dad. In fact, she identified him as a “racist bigoted motherfucker.” She then went even further, accusing her dad accused him of backing Nazi conspiracy theories.”

The whole place has gone fucking mad.

@MatchPoiint @RadioGenoa Belief cannot be legislated against. Personal belief, unless it results in the clear, imminent, violation of another’s human rights has a right to expression. The world is full of contradictory beliefs. Totalitarianism denies truth. To arrest this teacher, appalling.

Here's why Starmer must reverse Brexit.
The UK is being carved up into 86 deregulatory free zones, Labour MPs, Mayors, councillors, Lords, and Baronesses were board members of Sunak's nationwide SEZs/Freeports consortia.
I don't understand why this is not hitting home with the British public, you have all been conned, what 's happening on Labour's watch couldn't be more serious, the private sector, its affiliated think tanks, including Labour Together, dozens of the world worst corporations with atrocious track records in just about every single criminal act under the sun are party to the reconfiguration of the UK into a rogue state, Brexit has fucked the UK so badly that it is now capital hungry and desperate, the poor are the first ones to take the hit, the corporations will not flinch, they have the power, the wealth, our MPs in their pockets, and it's all down to Brexit. I despair.

@Variety This is the kind (training for 7 months….!) of infantile inanity that celebrity status fertilises…BS in other words.

@jemmm85517813 @EuropeanPowell @Keir_Starmer Oh my! Please educate yourself. Brexit has increased regulation and ‘unfreedom’ on several levels. Look out of the window….We never lost our ability to make our laws.
Sadly, too many people succumbed to mesmerism….

@EuropeanPowell That’s the inflexion point EP. - precisely the time to keep going with your great work: the time of maximum tension - before reality dawns for more of us.

@trussliz I think a drop-down, fact -checked, stage curtain, menu, should be made available on demand at all pseudo-political interviews with yesterday’s failed, ridiculous public figures. As ‘key fact’ cards go it was right on the money. Tin - pot dictator hissy fits notwithstanding.

@trussliz @elonmusk @X Speech is free. Freedom of speech, however, needs to accompanied by the basics of responsibility and trust. A bit like conflating ‘simple’ and ‘simplistic’. Proper freedom needs a measure of self- discipline and (self) reflection. These are in short measure among some it seems.

@elonmusk With freedom of speech comes responsibility and, hopefully, a desire to inform and provide a conduit for truth.

@TheSkepticMag The Alexander Technique is NOT exercise….an important category error made in this piece.
I take it that you’ve never been around the leading music and drama colleges in the UK and worldwide where AT is taught- and obviously have never had a lesson?

@13sarahmurphy Well, it’s a sad, curious reflection on humanity that those with the very least to offer are often the most ambitious. Can anyone close to her have a word? Does she have true friendships? Can’t imagine that they are very rewarding!

Bastion of ‘British values’, the Daily Mail, dedicated 13 front pages to Keir Starmer’s curry but not one to Rishi Sunak’s dereliction of D-Day duty.
Every day is an advert for ‘How They Broke Britain’ now.
Buy it for the Tory/Reform voter in your life. https://t.co/jdHhNGoCpr

@AdamBienkov Of course, Sunak apologised - Using this commemorative event as a proxy for his dissemblance during the TV debate. Far worse than simply leaving early….
