“Social media should be about exchanging ideas” declares (one of) Sir Keir Starmer’s last loyalist(s).
With Labour MPs increasingly discussing how to replace the Prime Minister, the Attorney General explains why he now prefers the sort of free speech where nobody answers back…
@LucyHunterB I suspect, much like the Corporation of London with Highgate Ponds - they would prefer to be seen to doing everything in their power to resist the "unfair" law and be forced to do it rather than capitulate voluntarily
@yuanyi_z Well, unless you are a country that passes laws making it a crime to refer to your country in any other way (or depict it on maps, etc)
It makes running international business a pain in the arse sometimes
@ATadDisturbed@juan_dla_mancha@yuanyi_z I think we are all on the same side of the argument here.
Prison abolitionists tend to be utopian socialists/communists who believe that all crime is a product of society, so if you fix society there would be no crime.
Obviously they are wrong.
@stevemagness It was called soccer for decades in the UK and nobody cared. It was only in the 1990s it became a bone of contention.

@MarcGoldberg111 The most the ASA could do is refer to Trading Standards. But given it was a one off event, it's hard to imagine what the outcome would be
Another evening of Trump’s crazy remarks:
1. After months of explaining why Iran must not have missiles, he now explains that as long as other countries have them, Iran should have them too.
2. He thinks that al-Shaara should deal with Hezbollah because, unlike Israel, he doesn’t topple buildings but handles things in a targeted manner.
