This is the most neutral summary I’ve seen of the Minnesota murder by ICE. It has ALL angles, it syncs them together, and shows the lead up and aftermath… if you watch this all and still think those shots were justified - you just might be a psychopath.

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

A reminder that what Farage ACTUALLY did was spread the false claim that the killer was a Muslim immigrant

Which is what caused the race riots

[Nigel Farage MP @Nigel_Farage]

At last the truth.

The Southport murderer was reported to Prevent three times.

The cover-up has been a disgrace. I was right all along.

“Stop the life-saving nannying - and bring on the next pandemic!” 🙄

[Suella Braverman @SuellaBraverman]

The UK should do exactly the same thing.

The World Health Organization has lost all credibility since the pandemic, has got it wrong too many times and is another globalist, nannying structure that is no longer serving the interests of the British people.

And we would save £140m annually.

Time to defund the WHO.

@AndrewJQuinn97 @TimGatt This is the first time the words "coup", "Rob out" and @LobbyXI have been uttered in public in the same sentence...although I've always had my suspicions

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

You can find me on the site not owned by a megalomaniac hater, fyi....

@ZoeJardiniere @narindertweets This meme becomes more important every day.

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

Is that a portrait of Trump fantasising that he turned out in 40-over match at Lords? 🏏

[Nigel Farage MP @Nigel_Farage]

Britain Needs Reform. @ElonMusk

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

@TimGatt Does he think the @LobbyXI job is up for grabs - and that’s where recruiters will look?

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

@paulhtfp We did play at Eton once - not against the school’s team I stress @LobbyXI

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

This stuff is simply beyond parody 😆

Shall we crowdfund for these poor afflicted folk - a sponsored run?

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

A word on @AllisonPearson free speech row and what she describes as a ‘Kafkaesque’ threat to it. Today on @TheNewsAgents, we asked her to appear. She said ‘No. And if you get any aspect of the story wrong my lawyers will be watching.’
You gotta love a free speech warrior

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

"There is no protection to anyone"

@UNWateridge describes the harrowing reality for families seeking refuge at this @UNRWA school - children with amputations, burns & permanent scarring.

The school has been struck by Israeli airstrikes twice & endured countless shelling. The situation is unimaginable.

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

Israel appears to be destroying another country’s capital city - killing civilians in huge numbers

And its barely in the news

[sarah @sahouraxo]

Absolutely horrifying scene out of Beirut today.

Israel is deliberately wiping out entire civilian apartment buildings without justification or restraint—sheer destruction for the sake of it.

This is an American-funded, American-backed genocide.

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

@wallaceme I believe I showed convincingly that the public was not told that. Of course you (and many others) hoped and expected you were voting for that….but it wasn’t on the ballot paper

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

Reminder: NOBODY voted to leave the EU single market or customs union

The question was not asked - and the leading Brexit campaigners suggested the UK would remain in the single market

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

@wallaceme I’m a bit busy to dig out the clips of Johnson and Farage etc talking of staying in the SM/Norway deal….the point I was making

Voters were given different versions of what leaving the EU meant - I think that’s beyond dispute

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

@wallaceme I think a lot of different things were said - few of them honest !

[Rob Merrick @Rob_Merrick]

@wallaceme Yes - and the Leave camp denied it !

[Octopus Energy @OctopusEnergy]

Allow @g__j to help you with that answer, Tim #bbcqt

[Sarah Champion @SarahChampionMP]

Today the @CommonsIDC heard harrowing evidence on the use of drones in Gaza, targeting and shooting civilians, including children @UNWRA @MedicalAidPal @PalestineRCS ⁦@hrw⁩
