Find time to read this quite astonishingly good piece by
@ArwaM Mahdawi. Brilliant on our government's appalling moral confusion over Gaza
"Why is Hasan Piker ‘not conducive to the public good’? Because on Gaza, we punish the witness, not the crime"

So Farage ran away from parliament after he was shamed by the PM.
Where did he run away to? To Oswald's in Mayfair, a private members club.
When will people wake up. He doesn’t represent you. He doesn’t understand you. He’s not like you. He’s using you.

The Henry Nowak thing. If you watch the video, before Nowak complains of being unable to breathe and having been stabbed, the one police officer notes that "he has a mouthful of blood". Now when a person with a mouthful of blood starts complaining that they can't breathe and that they have been stabbed, alarm bells should be starting to go off. Then, a few moments later a policewoman requests an ambulance saying "His pupils aren't even reacting". By that point anyone with any bit of sense would surely have realised that there was a very serious problem. Now these same officers, apparently having been bereft of anything approaching basic common sense, are blaming their DEI training.
I'm so proud of Sarah and the Green Party.
When the 50 wealthiest families in the UK own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population - don't tell us there's no money left.
Let's keep growing our movement:

Zack Polanski criticised the police for being heavy handed with a RT and he got a formal rebuke from the police and got grilled by the media.
Farage incites riots and condemns the police causing them of murder and nothing.
Two tier media more like.
"You have made offensive comments about women.. you've also said that abortion is the cowardly act of women murdering defenceless babies"
#BBCBreakfast reports on last nights #bbcqt, which covered comments made by Reforms candidate in Makerfield
Kenyon says he respects women
I am horrified that a car has been deliberately set alight outside the home of the family of Salma Yaqoob, a wonderful prominent anti-racist and peace campaigner in Birmingham.
I hope the police take this shocking incident seriously. Sending my solidarity to Salma & her family.
Robert Kenyon (Reforms candidate in Makerfield) is asked about comments he's made about women.
Sarah Wakefield (the Greens candidate) then asks him if he'll apologise. He doesn't
Sarah goes on to point out Reforms policies on women (e.g. scrapping the equality act) are shocking
Trump called me “crooked as hell” while spreading lies about the fraud in Minnesota.
He's not interested in fighting fraud. He's interested in using fraud as a political weapon while enriching himself and his allies.

“Fifty-four years ago, in 1971, my grandmother Katharine Graham, publisher of The Washington Post, risked everything to stand up to a corrupt president. That president sought to destroy her newspaper’s autonomy. Today, faced with another such president, Jeff Bezos, the paper’s new owner, is tearing down the very newspaper she defended.”
💷 Reform UK is raising millions more than other political parties from private donations, bringing in £9m largely from cryptocurrency billionaires in first three months of year.
Nigel Farage’s party took £3m donation from Christopher Harborne, a British-Thai dual citizen, and £4m from Ben Delo, who is relocating to UK from Hong Kong.
Between them, the pair’s donations account for a third of all private money flowing into politics in first quarter.
Reform’s fundraising far outstripped Labour and the Tories, which each raised about £4m from private donations.
What's really striking about this clip is that I laid out some of the nonsense against me - and why it was disproportionate.
Journalist agrees some of it is "overcooked."
But none of my explanation nor the danger around my personal safety has made the cut....!
