BREAKING: In a terrifying moment, Donald Trump just threatened to take away CBS’ license to report the news. This is exactly what a fascist would do. Retweet to make sure every American sees this and knows how dangerous Trump is
🚨🚨🚨MAJOR BREAKING: In a shocking expose, the New York Times has uncovered that Donald Trump has secretly spoken with Vladimir Putin as many as SEVEN times since leaving office.
The conversations coincided with Trump pressuring Republicans to block military aid to Ukraine.
TRUMP IS A TRAITOR!!!
Trump also secretly sent Putin COVID tests while he was in office, when they were hard to obtain.
Putin even asked Trump to keep it a secret.
There is no way Donald Trump should ever be allowed to occupy the White House again.
Left: David Frost, "I found the lockdowns actually, a profoundly inhumane and disturbing period to live through"
Right: Prof Kevin Fong to the Covid Inquiry
"The scale of death experienced by the Intensive Care teams during was unlike anything they had seen before"
"It was routine to see 3-5 deaths a day.. I was on a shift where we had 6 deaths on a single shift"
"Another hospital told us they had 10 deaths in a shift, two of whom were their own staff"
"One of the nurses said they just got tired of putting people in body bags"
"Sometimes they were so overwhelmed they were putting patients in body bags and lifting them from the bed, putting them on the floor, putting another patient in the bed because there wasn't time"
"Things got so bad, they ran out of body bags, they were instead issued with 9 foot clear plastic sacks and cable ties. And those nurses talk about being really traumatised because they had recurring nightmares. Feeling that they were just throwing bodies away"
"These people are used to seeing death, but not on that scale and not like that"
"It was like nothing else I had ever seen. Like nothing else any of those teams had ever seen"
@ChrisBearFX@WeWillBeFree24 Why is it “too late” for the presidential candidates to have another debate (as stated by Trump) but not too late for the Vice Presidential candidates?
@FenlandCouncil Very surprised to receive the Annual Household Canvass email from the Elections Team with such a short reply date when so many people are on holiday. I haven’t seen it promoted anywhere either. Should the deadline be extended and promoted more?
🇬🇧BORIS JOHNSON SLAMS STARMER FOR BRANDING ANTI-IMMIGRATION PROTESTERS AS FAR-RIGHT EXTREMISTS
Johnson used his editorial column to pen an open letter to the UK's new PM, Keir Starmer, criticizing his branding of the public's concern over immigration as far-right extremism.
"I saw an astonishing statistic that 34% of the public actually support the protests – if not the violence associated with it.
Does that mean that more than a third of the UK population are 'far-right' in their views?
Nothing excuses the behavior of the rioters, and they deserve to be banged up.
But nothing excuses a Government that seems deaf to public concerns, and that suggests, moreover, that they actively dislike all members of the public who share those concerns."

A young health worker at Peterborough City Hospital is working a 12 hour shift today at just over minimum wage. She is now scared to go home tonight “because of my colour” as Peterborough has been ‘chosen’ for a Far Right rally. What a fucked up world.
👀UKWIN together with dozens of other environmental groups will be posting an open letter to the Government on Wednesday calling for a moratorium on new waste incineration capacity. Organisation interested in signing the letter can contact [email protected] for details.
@TomBurnett88 Thanks. A candidate has just written to me that they expect the result in 1/2 hr with Barclay winning and Reform 2nd. As usual So unfortunately this very deprived area wants no change and bucks the trend.
