Elon Musk has had a lot to say about the grooming gangs scandal. We looked at 24 hours on Musk's X timeline and found a range of false and misleading information being amplified. Produced by Catherine Karelli, Shayan Sardarizadeh and Jake Horton. Graphics by Jacqueline Galvin.

The £2 bus fare cap was absolutely the best thing the last government ever did.

For Labour to come in and immediately scrap it would show a complete lack of empathy for working people and rural areas. Bus fares on the island would likely double at least. 1/2

As a dad, if my newborn baby had to get to hospital and Just Stop Oil wouldn’t move after being told that, I honestly think I’d drive through them

Slag me off all you like, but I’d put my child before myself, and certainly before these narcissistic, selfish imbeciles

Dear @sajidjavid

My elderly patient couldn’t even afford the bus fare to my surgery, so she walked 25 mins in this freezing weather for her appointment.

…& you want to CHARGE patients £20 for a GP appointment?! Do you all just not give a damn about our country’s poorest?! 🤬

A care home has just written to me saying their energy bill was £152k a year and they have just been quoted £790k.

We need to stop pretending this is all out of our control.

Other countries are taking action to protect people.

The Tories are driving us over the edge of a cliff

NEWS:
I feel sick writing this!
I've just got the latest price cap predictions from @CornwallInsight. A huge spike in the key year-ahead wholesale price means

OCT cap prediction UP 64% (so £3,244/yr on typical bills)
JAN cap prediction UP 4% (so £3,363/yr)

.@Asda has announced that between 25th july-3rd September all children under 16 can eat a hot or cold meal for £1 in their cafes. All day/every day nationwide with no minimum adult spend. This is to help parents with the cost of living crisis during the summer holidays

Every day I am more ashamed of my country. This government is not just morally bankrupt, it is heartless and cruel. #NotMyPM

Since the war in Ukraine began the Tories have taken the opportunity to quietly announce £5bl cuts in the NHS budget; a life long graduate tax of £100k plus for students; and the end of any spending to support industry.

[Alex Tiffin @RespectIsVital]

6 people sharing a house have the £200 "discount" applied.

They all then move & get their own places. Instead of paying back £40 a year collectively, they pay £40 each.

@RishiSunak is running a scam to enrich power companies and the treasury.

There are no ITU beds in the valleys. So you might be 23 and invincible if you get COVID but what if you crash your car? Or a friend takes an overdose or a parent needs emergency surgery? Guess what! No beds for you either. And THAT’S how this affects everyone. Rant over.

It’s safe or it’s NOT @GavinWilliamson.

If it’s not safe in London it’s not safe anywhere. If it’s not safe for PRIVATE SCHOOL kids it’s not safe for ours.
End this ludicrous rearranging of deckchairs on the Titanic. #CloseTheSchools

Didn’t even realise MP’s get a £25 per day food allowance.

£125 per week
£1300 per year ( per person)
£845,000 per year for all MP’s

£800k + of our taxes go towards feeding MP’s on £80k a year while children go hungry. If that doesn’t bother you then you have a problem

Votes on free school meals. Does this not tell you something? #ToryScumOut
