We must not let a “social media ban” become Digital ID by the back door.

Protect privacy. Protect the open internet.

A welcoming present just out this morning for a Mr A Burnham to underline just how limited his latitude as PM will be:
The UK government borrowed £23.3 billion last month, 30 per cent or £5.4 billion higher than a year earlier.
It was also more than the £18.8 billion expected by most economists and the £17.7 billion forecast by the Office for Budget Responsibility, the UK’s independent fiscal watchdog.
 The interest payable on government debt rose to £11.7 billion, the highest ever recorded in any May.

DIGITAL ID: "Please DO NOT comply"

"We're fighting for our children's futures"

Powerful speech by @paulfrewDUP at our #ScrapDigitalID Belfast rally

[Together @Togetherdec]

⚠️ A “social media ban” sounds like it’s about children.

But the systems behind it would turn age checks into ID checks for everyone.

What starts as age checks would become a system where ordinary people are identified, tracked and monitored just to find information, speak, share and take part online.

Don’t let age checks become Digital ID by the back door.

The open internet has given ordinary people the power to learn, create, organise, challenge those in power and speak freely.

That freedom is now under threat.

Support the call:

Al Carns is absolutely right here 👇

Our veterans in Northern Ireland did nothing but their duty in defeating the IRA terrorists. We cannot now let the IRA achieve their aims through political concessions by persecuting our own soldiers.

This element of the Northern Ireland Troubles Bill must be stopped.

#OTD 17 June 1922, the Altnaveigh Massacre. An IRA unit of 30 rampaged through the South Armagh Protestant hamlet murdering six. Many others managed to escape the attackers by hiding or fleeing. At least twelve houses were burned or bombed. No one was convicted

[Kate Hoey @CatharineHoey]

The event that helped win the referendum. Shouting abuse at fishermen and women was rather typical of Remainers snobbery.

[The Spectator @spectator]

One uncomfortable consequence of political longevity is seeing the facts prove some of one's most confident forecasts wrong.

As the trade secretary overseeing Britain's entry into the single market in 1992, I claimed it would wonderfully boost our exports. As I outline in my new paper for Policy Exchange, I was proved wrong. Over our 28-year membership, British goods exports to the EU grew less than 1 per cent a year, while our exports to the 111 countries with which we had no trade deal grew four times as much – by 87 per cent.

Yet the present Business and Trade Secretary, Peter Kyle, is apparently ignorant of this disappointing experience. He has justified the government's proposed 'reset' of relations with the EU by claiming that ‘the single market is where the magic happens’.

@Iromg Is he f***

[Keith Adams @KeithAdamsBP]

Avec dignity my arse

[Keith Adams @KeithAdamsBP]

Au revoir. À bientôt.

Wish I could say I was sad to see you go. But as my dad always said - live by the sword, die by the sword.

You used the sharp edge of politics to punish Brexit voters. Now your own people have used the same edge to send you off.

@DPJHodges You're an idiot.

[Keith Adams @KeithAdamsBP]

Not a single train on time. Not one - even the information board is wrong.

[Keith Adams @KeithAdamsBP]

Lovely. So after another miserable weekend of rail replacement buses, a week of train cancellations due to no drivers, now the trains have decided to need repairs at the same time - truly inept ... @GNRailUK @TLRailUK @networkrail

[Professor Karol Sikora @ProfKarolSikora]

As a cancer specialist, I’ve never been far from dying patients for nearly 50 years.

My view is that we should definitely create a formal mechanism to support those who wish to end their lives because of incurable illness causing uncontrolled suffering - but this would be actually used extremely rarely, with incredibly tight controls.

But please spare us the excruciatingly ignorant noise that is bound to emanate from the mouths of our politicians, bishops, ethicists and usual commentariat.

Politicians are too ignorant to intervene in assisted dying.

Leave the details to the professionals who actually interact with seriously ill patients.

[Lee Anderson MP @LeeAndersonMP_]

How to ruin the special relationship.

Just imagine if Donald Trump wins in a few weeks time.

He's then got to deal with Labour's David Lammy who called him a “neo-Nazi sympathizing sociopath" and “a racist KKK and Nazi sympathizer”.

Not only that he will also have to deal with a British Government that sent over an army of activists to stop him winning the election.

This is very worrying indeed.

@drnedflanders @RealMGSimpson @reformparty_uk @ReformGreenwich And who is hiding behind Ned Flanders afraid to show their face?

[Keith Adams @KeithAdamsBP]

@davidyelland Which explains why the media is as corrupt as the parliamentarians they report on. Totally entitled culture.

[Keith Adams @KeithAdamsBP]

Guys relax! It's all fine now.

2 tier, free gear Keir has paid back £6k of the £110k he received.

Different kind of politics. Done. 👍🏻

@reshoevn8r I'm frustrated every time I try to order something, your discount codes never work, and your delivery charges are extortionate. Explain.
