It was never about them or their supreme qualifications, it was about misogyny, racism, hate and fascism.

[Stan Collymore @StanCollymore]

I'll make my point a little more seriously.

£37bn of tax money of many people reading this went during Covid to allegedly corrupt people and organisations.

Not one head has rolled, not one person arrested, not one person doorstepped to answer questions.

Just one puff ball interview with one woman and her husband.

That £37bn has cost British lives, savings, businesses and hope. Still, 4 years later, zero accountability for a monster political story.

Instead, in all seriousness, a senior UK tv journalist has tweeted a story that's so irrelevant that anyone reading it can only draw one conclusion. That "look over there at a shiny bulshit story that'll titilate " replaces serious political journalism surrounding corruption of the state.

You've just tweeted a one liner in Private Eye when you should be looking for the front page of UK state corruption.

[Tim Farron @timfarron]

This is getting silly now. Leave his kids out of it, and stop blowing things out of proportion. There is bad behaviour amongst some politicians, but this constant pearl clutching at everything undermines trust to an unjustified and dangerous extent. Try reporting some news.

[LBC @LBC]

It's rare that James O'Brien and Nigel Farage are in the same room.

So when the Reform UK leader was leaving the LBC studios after his phone-in with Nick Ferrari, @mrjamesob delivered a one-of-a-kind handover.

[The Secret DJ. @SecretDJBook]

You see this, this is what happens in real life. The bots can't show up on the streets.

On the right there (yeah the far right) are the 6 nazis who turned up to cause mayhem.

Everyone else is there to stop them.

This is England.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Is anyone else fed up of being told what the British people do or do not think?

A small minority of people voted for the racist far-Right Reform UK party - FACT

They are not saying what everyone is thinking. They are saying what they are thinking.

Britain against Fascism!

[Alex Beresford @alexberesfordTV]

I was born here but this weekend it didn’t feel like home and I know so many who felt the same.

Guess we’ll all just go to work like normal Monday morning.💔

[Suzannah Lipscomb @sixteenthCgirl]

They’re not “far-right protestors”; they’re fascist thugs.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Britain is seeing wave of right wing thuggery, hate crime and rioting.

This is the result of Nigel Farage.

This is the result of Suella Braverman.

This is the result of GB News and the Daily Fail.

Let's show that love is louder than hate!

RT if you stand against racism!

[PaulShilly @shillcock_paul]

You know, I want my country back too

Back from the far right, the racists, the politicians who prey on ignorance and xenophobia, back from the EDL, Farage, Reform The Daily Mail, The Sun and every God forsaken crappy organisation that spreads divisive hate

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

Real men don’t vote for rapists, frauds or felons.

[Brendan May @bmay]

Not all politicians are the same.

We’ve bagged a good one here.

After the last several years this is pure poetry.

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

The work of change begins today.

[Moog @a_toots]

This is a joy to watch. Ian Hislop, full-throttle, absolutely shredding Jake Berry on Peston. Hislop doesn’t give an inch and talks at Berry the way Tory MPs hate and just can’t cope with (“You can’t just talk nonsense and not be interrupted!”). Superb. https://t.co/z8SRv4a0ht

[Peter Apps @PeteApps]

Brief aside to note that ITV was the only TV outlet to seriously cover the Grenfell Inquiry; exposed social housing disrepair in a way which has led to a change in the law and has now pushed the Post Office scandal into the public eye. Underrated as a public service broadcaster.

We are devastated at the passing of our remarkable colleague Emily Morgan.

Emily was a hugely talented journalist and a much-loved friend and mentor to so many here. She will be greatly missed.

Our thoughts are with Emily’s family.
