A thing of beauty…
This is Jonathan Miller taking on Enoch Powell
This is how you expose people like Suella Braverman for the race-baiting, dog-whistling charlatans that they are.
The Tory party have received unfair criticism this last few weeks. In the interests of balance,I’ve posted some charts below which show performance in various key areas such as life expectancy, the NHS, trade, immigration and the economy

In grad school, I worked part time at @lululemon (retail, not corporate).
I learned more about business from that part time job folding & selling yoga pants than any other job I had. ❤️
Here’s what they did differently:
What a long way the Tories have fallen, even just in 5 years
Insular, divisive, so terrified of their tiny xenophobic base and RW press that they’re cheering on the damage they’re directly inflicting on a world class British industry
🙏🏼Make it stop🙏🏼

Brilliant demolition of Brexit on live TV.
You’d never see this on a BBC vox pop.
Rachel in Parliament Square tells it like it is at the #PeoplesVoteMarch.
I cannot begin to impress upon you the scale of environmental damage currently happening to the River Test
As this testing shows 👇 stretches of the river are now becoming ecological dead, the River Test for God's sake!
And @EnvAgency, @NaturalEngland do what exactly?
NOTHING!

Your regular reminder that fuel duty cuts and freezes since 2010 are costing the Treasury more than £80bn a year – and mean the UK's CO2 emissions are up to 7% higher than they would have been otherwise

🇵🇸🇮🇱 Brilliant report by Channel 4 News on the reality of Israeli settlers.
This was filmed for 14 months, so before October 7th.
The settlers beat up a widow's son and kill her sheep, which forced her and her son to sleep in a cave.
The IDF protect the settlers.
Watch:
Here’s the Prime Minister celebrating undermining one of our biggest export successes - higher education - being undermined by his own Govt.
And all just because they insist in counting temporary residents (students and their families) as migrants. Bonkers.
So it's 24 hours later and not a word, not one single word from @DefraUK about the UK's populations of Atlantic salmon been classified as endangered, ie they are now threatened with extinction.
On your watch.
Interesting quote today from a Ukrainian politician - “Will Putin destroy us before humanity’s eyes? Will he be killing our children, our women, our elderly men? And will the whole world watch with their eyes closed? Then the question should be, in what world do we live? “. Substitute the word Putin for the word Netanyahu….and I say that’s happening and the last question is a good one - what kind of world.?
