What happened in Belfast was what Lucy Connolly called for in Southport.

She was, quite rightly jailed.

Only for Reform to give her a heroes welcome at their conference, which normalised and applauded racial incitement.

Now look at where we are.

It’ll be lynchings next.

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

You voted against scrapping zero hour contracts.

You voted against banning fire and rehire.

You voted against day one sick pay for workers.

You said the minimum wage was too high for young people.

Reform politicians openly say they don't like trade unions.

You will always put the interests of your offshore crypto billionaire donors ahead of workers.

Gianni Infantino in 2017, talking about the bidding process for 2026 with particular reference to the travel bans the US had in place then:

“Teams who qualify for a World Cup need to have access to the country, otherwise there is no World Cup. That is obvious.

“We are now in the process of defining the bid requirements. In the world there are many countries who have bans, travel bans, visa requirements and so on and so forth. It’s obvious when it comes to FIFA competitions, any team, including the supporters and officials of that team, who qualify for a World Cup need to have access to the country, otherwise there is no World Cup.

“The requirements will be clear. And then each country can make up their decision, whether they want to bid or not based on the requirements.”

It was terrible Mr Vice President what happened. And lessons will be learned. But here’s a thought - maybe concentrate instead on why 44000 Americans died last year from gun related deaths, and what can be done about your dreadful disease before you start lecturing others

Immigration makes Britain brilliant.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

I am at a loss to understand why the government has done nothing to reform @ofcom which is not fit for purpose and has allowed Farage UK to have its own TV news channel; nothing to push back on the relentless bias and untruthfulness of most of our press; and nothing to respond to the capture of the BBC political coverage by the Gibb brigade.

[Deborah Meaden 🇺🇦 @DeborahMeaden]

Ok… this is a remarkable post…and very very damning. It’s not even hard to follow the money it is literally signposting itself…

[Richard Corbett @RichardGCorbett]

Given that other countries make marmalade from figs & other fruit, it’s actually quite helpful to take the simple step of specifying that ours is citrus (orange or lemon). Most labels already say “orange”

Hardly newsworthy, but of course the usual suspects want to stir things up

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

I seem to have upset the @Nigel_Farage fan club - so let me be clear.

This man sows hate, lies and division.

He is a grifter and a conman.

He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

RT if you agree

P.s. multiculturalism is great.

[James Chapman @jameschappers]

Goodness, it's almost as if the markets are sending us a message of some kind

[Sadiq Khan @SadiqKhan]

This is just sickeningly insensitive.

Not an ounce of decency, compassion or respect for the 72 lives lost and wider community.

But this isn’t a slip-up or a stumble. This is Reform showing us exactly who they are.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

The US pulling out of NATO was part of the plan all along ... Putin’s plan that is. He just got lucky with who he helped to make US president. It really is time for Europe to get serious about the withdrawal of the US from credible global leadership or reliable alliance

[Jonathan Pie @JonathanPieNews]

Just saw this and was about to post something amusingly ironic along the lines of : I'm sure Trump will be magnanimous in his response to a former foe. Then I saw his response and even my jaw hit the floor.
Bush: "He helped prevent another terrorist attack on US soil."
Obama: "One of the finest directors in the history of the FBI"
Trump: "I'm glad he's dead."
The current President of The United States is not a normal human being. He's a vicious, crude, unhinged cunt of a man.

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

I loathe these posts that treat war like a video game. It’s deadly serious and a lot of people are getting killed, including innocent children and US servicemen/women.
It’s not a game, Mr President @realDonaldTrump - please don’t treat it as such.

[John Simpson @JohnSimpsonNews]

I think this is absolutely wonderful — Shakespeare and Sir Ian McKellen putting the case for decency and kindness and civilised standards in a world full of anger and brutality.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

You'll want to be sitting down for this bit.

Water companies are currently £82.7 billion in debt, have paid themselves £85 billion in dividends, leak over a trillion of litres of water per year, dump sewage for almost 4 million hours per year, have been convicted of over 1,200 criminal acts since 1989 and an average of 35% of your bill goes on nothing but paying more interest and yet more dividends.

And not a single company has ever lost their operating licence. 👇

[Jo Caulfield @Jo_Caulfield]

Why doesn’t a male reporter or cameraman step forward and defend the female reporters?
If he spoke to me like that I’d smack him in the fkn mouth.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Every non Trump leader of NATO (and every leader of every 🇬🇧 party) should unequivocally condemn Trump disgusting comments on the non American soldiers who fought in the post 9/11 wars in which America sought support from elsewhere

[Peter Oborne @OborneTweets]

The Times undermining and disrespecting parliament. Farage is an MP and should be in Commons for PMQs.
