@CharlieM_OBE But you don't live in London, Charlie. Or even in the UK. So what does it mean to you?

No.

[USA NEWS 🇺🇸 @usanewshq]

Thousands of young Christians gathered at a high school football stadium in Hot Springs, Arkansas, to praise Jesus.

Do you support the Christian revival that is sweeping across America?

The mainstream media censored this. Let's make it go VIRAL!

[Alex McDougall 💙 #NHSPay15 #fbpe @bigmack1]

Good.

[Tommy Robinson 🇬🇧 @TRobinsonNewEra]

The 'United Kingdom Independence Party' was banned from protesting in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets today.

Instead @metpoliceuk gave the area to masked mobs of Muslims screaming "allahu akbar" and waving Bangladesh flags.

🚨BREAKING: Reform MP Sarah Pochin ERUPTS:

"It drives me mad seeing adverts full of black and Asian people"

Do you agree with her?

[Alex McDougall 💙 #NHSPay15 #fbpe @bigmack1]

No she mustn't.

Jess Phillips must resign.

Here’s why…

It has been 22 years since the first MP sounded the alarm over the child rape gangs. Ann Cryer was a brave Labour MP. Motivated to give voice to those mothers in Keighley who came to her with stories of Pakistani men sexually exploiting their daughters.
For her honesty she was labelled “racist” by members of her own party. So the stories were buried and the victims were thrown to the wolves.

My party took steps to address the injustice by creating a police-led taskforce under Suella Braverman to bring more of the rapists to court.
But we did not do anywhere near enough to tackle what is undoubtedly one of the worst scandals of modern history.

Which brings me to the latest saga in this scandal. The issue came roaring back when Labour MP Jess Phillips, the safeguarding minister, turned down a request for a public inquiry into the rape gangs in Oldham. It was a terrible decision, and motivated by what? Complacency? Or the desire to cover up the appalling failure of a Labour council?

Fast forward to today, and the national inquiry Labour was eventually forced into is in turmoil. This week some of the victims have quit the panel and are refusing to rejoin until any widening of the inquiry beyond the rape gangs is ruled out.

They also ask that Phillips resign after she claimed that attempts to widen the inquiry were “categorically untrue”.
What does it say to the survivors of rape gangs, who have spent years being branded as “liars”, that a minister in charge of protecting them suggests this again of them?

Phillips presents herself as a model campaigner on the scourge of violence against women and girls, but her record tells a different story. There is still no violence against women and girls strategy, despite her being in charge for 16 months. She’s missed three self-imposed deadlines.

At times she has underplayed completely unacceptable behaviour when it doesn’t suit her agenda. For instance, she compared the sexual assaults of women by migrants that took place in Cologne on New Year’s Eve in 2015 to “heckling” on Birmingham Broad Street.

Last year, she seemed to excuse a group of sectarian gangs, who were harassing a female reporter in Birmingham, by claiming they were only there because of online “misinformation” that racists were coming to attack them.

And after previously dismissing the background of criminals as irrelevant, Phillips doubled down this week and voted against the amendment I brought forward to release the crime statistics by the offenders’ country of birth, visa and asylum status.

It’s hard to escape the conclusion that Phillips’ commitment to tackling violence against women and girls depends, at times, on the background of the perpetrators.

Ms Phillips believes uniquely in her own virtue and she dismisses those who disagree with her. Earlier this year the Conservative MP, Alicia Kearns, was attacked by Phillips for missing a debate on violence against women and girls when she was in hospital having been diagnosed with life-threatening conditions. No public apology from Phillips was forthcoming.

Nor is Ms Phillips a stranger to hypocrisy. She said, while in opposition, that “when I’m in government I’d like to, on the record, commit to saying that when I’m doing something wrong I’m going to try and say, take bloody responsibility.”

Well, the victims of the rape gangs are waiting. Because that’s what this comes down to: this is only about the victims and their need for answers. It is not about Jess Phillips, her career, or perceived enemies.

The victims have been failed over and over again. We have a chance to get this right. And so she should do the decent thing, and step aside. If she doesn’t, this inquiry will remain irredeemably tainted.

If Keir Starmer does not step up and get this inquiry right, it will be up to the next government to do the job properly. A whitewash will not be tolerated.

Selective or not, Reagan actually said those words.

[Fox News @FoxNews]

“I can play dirtier than they can.”

President Trump is standing by his decision to end trade negotiations with Canada over an ad made by Ontario’s government that used “selective audio” of former President Ronald Reagan.

Wanker.

[Vice President JD Vance @VP]

Vice President Vance and Second Lady Usha Vance visited the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the site of Christ's crucifixion and resurrection, in Jerusalem this week.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Trump: They cheated on a commercial. Ronald Reagan loved tariffs and they said he didn't. It was AI or something. They cheated badly. Canada got caught cheating on a commercial

Trump is lying. The ad used real Reagan audio of him speaking against tariffs

All religion is the problem, especially Christians.

[James, servant of Jesus @jaaronbeck]

@mattletiss7 It’s Satan and Quran that’s root of issue. One must always consider root of an issue. For example, Satan is founder factually of Islamic ideology, allah described as ‘the best deceiver’ in Quran. Believers of ideology imitate false god, or false allah that they serve.
