Behind all the ‘make Britain great again’ type rhetoric, that speech was rambling, blame-shifting and, to put it mildly, somewhat divorced from reality. #newPM

Tell me again that there is no far right in this country. Tell me again that I am wrong to call it out. Britain's proudest moment in history was helping to defeat fascism. We now have to confront this ideology of hate again.

Do please retweet if the BBC’s handling of Brexit has made you bitterly resentful of the licence fee and determined to see it scrapped.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Our lives, our existence, should be about more than just the accumulation of more and more wealth. In our country, I see people who are worth billions of dollars pushing for policies that make the rich richer and everyone else poorer. That’s not what human life should be about.

The kind of content we need to share to spread the awareness.

I saw your son dribbling over himself at an after party on the Kings Road because he’d backed off more Ket than he could handle... you’ve got bigger things to worry about x

Russia laws ban 'disrespect' of government and 'fake news' https://t.co/so4VMduRCs

When I was in primary school I learned 2 languages & also how Jesus was tortured til he looked “like a rasher” & then how he was nailed to a cross & how his mother grew him from a seed with just the help of an angel. But yes, grasping same sex love at that age would be mad. 🏳️‍🌈

If somebody wants to call me a radical, okay, here it is: I believe that people are inherently entitled to health care. I believe people are entitled to get the best education they can. I believe that people are entitled to live in a clean environment.

Japanese ambient and new age music created in the 80s has found a second life in reissue culture.

Not sure where to begin? Here's our cheat sheet to the genre's resurgence.📝

This is journalism. Challenging those who sit comfortably behind this myth that because they built a ‘successful’ business it justifies exploiting their employees.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

The far right is on the rise, and the Westminster elite and the media are to blame. Here's why.

@DPJHodges Hey Dan, I'm a journalism student from UWE in Bristol. Would I please be able to embed your tweet from April 12, regarding Radio 4 airing Enoch Powell's 'Rivers of Blood' into a multimedia journalism assignment? Many thanks

David Attenborough warned at #COP24 that collapse of civilisations & natural world are on horizon.

So I asked Prime Minister why she's still subsidising fossil fuels.

Her response? Vague muttering about wanting an 'energy mix'. The ignorance at the top of our Govt is shocking.

It’s World AIDS Day.

So let’s remember what George H.W. Bush did about that:

- banned HIV+ people from entering the U.S.
- reduced research funding
- favored abstinence education over actual sex ed including safer sex practices
- over a 100,000 died of AIDS on his watch
