“This is the most authoritarian government we have seen in living memory.”

The last couple of days have reminded the Free Speech Union that the threat to free speech in this country has never been more acute.

But if we think things have been bad under Sir Keir Starmer, they are only set to get worse under Prime Minister Andy Burnham.

His close ally, Lisa Nandy, is spearheading plans to force social media companies to prioritise the promotion of what the Government deems to be “trustworthy” news sources.

When Josh Simons — the former MP for Makerfield who resigned to allow Burnham to return to Westminster — was head of Labour Together, he oversaw a project that targeted journalists who wrote critically about the think tank and his political master at the time, Keir Starmer.

Now, Deputy Leader of the Labour Party Lucy Powell is calling for the effective censorship of social media platforms during election periods.

This is deeply authoritarian, and we must be alive to the threat it poses not only to free speech but also to our ability to have open political debate in this country.

We didn't pay enough attention to this at the time. 7 police officers force their way in to a family home to arrest a severely autistic teenage girl because she told the police officer she reminded her of her "lesbian nanna".

[Steven Barrett @SBarrettBar]

No bots, manipulated algorithms or foreign interference made me conclude that Lucy is an incompetent person and a danger to our country

Lucy did that.

Labour hold us in contempt - that's why they think we are easily manipulated.

[Sandy Tregent @SandyofSuffolk]

Interesting that Labour don't recognise the Bangladeshi court's judgment.
But Starmer is always banging on about recognising international law.
Obviously only when it suits him.
Hypocrite.

[Annunziata Rees-Mogg @zatzi]

More than any tax, any devolution, any hare-brained, befefits-dependency-inducing lunacy, any of their eco-insanity - this 👇scares me.

Silencing free speech is simply chilling. And anti-democratic.

It really does pitch the governed against the government.

Combined with mass migration and ending jury trials, controlling what we can or can’t read and share will end Britain as we have known it.

[Matt Goodwin @GoodwinMJ]

Can’t deport a Pakistani pedo who groomed children as young as 12.

But can accept 12 relatives for every 1 worker from Cameroon.

Britain is completely broken.

Look around you. They are laughing at you.

Vote Reform.

[Ben Habib @BackBrexitBen]

Fact: Pakistan offered to take back Rochdale grooming gang members, even execute them pre-2018.

UK government never even asked to send them back.

British girls sacrificed on the altar of political cowardice. Our politicians don’t even pretend to care. This is a stain on the country.

[Chris Rose @ArchRose90]

Andy Burnham has hinted that he’ll be bringing restrictions for VPNs under the false disguise of “protecting children”.

That would put the UK alongside China, Russia, Iran and Pakistan.

Andy is looking even worse for authoritarianism than Starmer.

@GlamBecks21 yes

[Charlie Marlow @rumandcoffee]

@AlexBarnicoat_ He'll surprise us by being even worse than Starmer.

‘We’ve only ever won 3 majorities’

Labour has won 8 majorities since 1945.

The guy is a terminal liar. It’s pathological, everything is spin in a court room.

[GB News @GBNEWS]

‘That is soviet levels of censorship.’

Lord Young criticises Labour’s Deputy Leader, Lucy Powell, over plans to impose restrictions on social media, warning of the US’s response to online censorship.

[Lucy White @lucyjaynewhite1]

It’s a national embarrassment that our Government claims it ‘cannot’ deport Afghans…

… when Pakistan and Iran have just deported 4.5 million Afghans back to Afghanistan.

Remigration is already happening, just not here.

Our own Government hates us. It’s all by design.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: THE FINAL NAIL IN THE COFFIN OF BRITISH FREEDOM!

Good morning to the millions of everyday Brits.

You are probably still asleep after we knocked out the Mexicans last night, but you need to wake up to a terrifying new reality!

It has just leaked that Andy Burnham is quietly preparing to enforce strict new VPN restrictions to stop teenagers bypassing his under-16 social media ban. 🤡

They are trying to spin this as protecting the kids, but here is the absolute nightmare they are hiding from you.

You cannot restrict VPNs just for children.

To enforce this, the state will be forced to ban, monitor, or require a mandatory Digital ID check for every single VPN user in the United Kingdom.

They are literally building a state-controlled internet firewall, copying the exact digital prison models used by China and North Korea.

They want total control over what you are allowed to see, say, and access online so they can completely kill off independent free speech.

We are trading a failed Prime Minister for a high-tech socialist dictatorship.

RT to completely blow up the UK timeline and demand our freedom back! 🔁🇬🇧🔥

[Nile Gardiner @NileGardiner]

A note to @andyburnham

If Burnham brings back the incredibly dangerous pro-China, anti-US and anti-British Chagos surrender deal as the likely next PM, we will fight it from Washington and sink it again.

The Chagos surrender will never take place.

#KeirStarmer would hate people to know he took a £4m bung from this hedge fund and then gave one of their owners a Directors job at GB Energy

[Charlie Marlow @rumandcoffee]

@TheMercianNews It has nothing to do with children's safety.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

🚨12 workers from Cameroon sponsored 180 dependents to come to Britain last year.

1029 Pakistani workers brought in 6155 dependents.

230 Nigerians brought in 1114.

257 Ghanaians brought in 2131.

2395 Indians brought in 10504 dependents.

The Health and Care visa program - introduced by the Tories - is an industrial scale scam on the British people.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Reform will NOT allow them to stay.

[James Glancy @jaglancy]

Why are the civil service (Antonio Romeo & Johnathan Powell) still advising Burnham to surrender the Chagos?

It seems that the Civil Service is compromised and working against the British national interest.
