A message to voters in #TivertonandHoniton. 🧵
I have been a Tory supporter since I was a child. My parents were as Tory as they come, our home hosted MP surgeries. Our front room was often piled high with election literature and envelopes. That is my dad in the photo.➡️
A British national living in Southampton had her car and property damaged. She said,
“I’ve never felt so unsafe in my house.”
She did not feel unsafe because of Sikhs, Muslims or migrants but because of other British nationals, a section of whom were far right.
Here is Jared Kushner spelling out how Pax Judaica will spread in West Asia and North Africa via the Abraham Accords. It will subjugate the whole region for the Jewish State to become a Jewish Empire.
The same process is happening in Latin America via their Isaac Accords.
It’s coming.
Unless it’s stopped.

Leen Hijaz, valedictorian at her high school in North Carolina, said the following in her graduation speech:
"Before I leave the stage, I have one last thing to say. Every single person here has a voice; we have the privilege to use it when millions around the world are struggling and suffering to be heard. Whether it’s the millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan and so many other countries around the world, or families being torn apart by ICE. These are not just an issue here; they are happening there, they’re happening right here as I speak. My point is, we’re not given a voice to stay silent."
Corey Robin, a political theorist at Brooklyn College, writes: "The mere mention of Palestine—maybe ICE, too—sent the high school principal, Melissa Moore, hurtling across the stage to seize the microphone from Hijaz, and stop her from saying these unapproved words.
Just look at this photograph: A young Muslim woman, speaking out, and a desperate, terrified principal trying to shut her down, lest the student say something unauthorized, disapproved, discordant with the views of an increasingly small clique of government officials and voters.
It's so pathetic. It reads like a comic play by Václav Havel. It looks like the desperate last days of the Soviet Union. I can only hope Hijaz speaks for a generation that will, one day, sweep all this garbage into the dustbin of history".
Russia’s equivalent of Davos was about to open when Ukrainian drones flew over 1,000km and struck one of Russia’s largest oil refineries. St Petersburg’s main airport was forced to suspend all operations, and authorities cut off mobile internet services.
This lie is already growing arms and legs. We spotted it on Monday. The reason it's being pushed by the BBC is that the BritNats need an excuse to hold an inquiry into Murrell. The 'public cash' lie is the excuse.
In the middle of a live streamed genocide the Canadian Prime Minister is making speeches in front of an Israeli flag, telling us that the real victims are those who’s feelings are hurt by criticism of the offending state.
This picture was taken yesterday.
NOW ON 1.3 MILLION VIEWS. Are you listening @Keir_Starmer?
More than 3,200 lawyers including 300 top barristers and retired judges have called on you to drop your plan to restrict the right to trial by jury.
30 organisations representing victims of violence against women and girls have written to the Justice Secretary urging him against curtailing the right to jury trials.
Trial by jury is a cornerstone of our democracy and an essential safeguard against authoritarianism. The government has no mandate to restrict it - a move which will put us on a path toward authoritarian justice.
It’s not too late for you to listen to the thousands of voices of victims, judges, barristers, other legal professionals and academics who oppose this.
Please now do the right thing and abandon this blatant act of constitutional vandalism.
A highschool senior, a pregnant woman, and a man with Stage Three cancer. These are the people I met in Delaney Hall. When DHS tells you they are only arresting the worst of the worst, they're lying. These are everyday people kept in inhumane conditions with our tax dollars.
Trying to understand how it’s legal for a POTUS to tell voters he’ll ensure their state receives funding if they vote like he tells them to while promising they won’t receive the said funding if they disobey his orders on who to vote for
Thought we fought a revolution over this?
I am Jewish and I challenged @ShelaghFogarty on X for her conflation of criticism of Israel with antisemitism
She did not engage in any discussion but simply immediately blocked me
She is a gatekeeper to protect Israel from proper criticism
Henry Nowak's last moments were horrific.
A murder victim was denied dignity as he bled to death.
His family have said:
"We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension. We want his story to help make our streets safer for everyone."
