Incitement to riot is not free speech.
Race hatred is not free speech.
Deliberately spreading harmful falsehoods is not free speech.
All these forms of speech exact a heavy price: a price paid by others.

[sarah murphy @13sarahmurphy]

It’s free speech.
It’s not free-from-consequences speech.
So, if your speech incites violence, racial hatred, arson, pogroms… there will and must be consequences.
That’s not an affront to democracy. That is democracy. And the law.
Rather than mob rule and fascism.

We opened the doors of the mosque a week after protesters came outside, and we invited them to come and talk with us.

The event went amazingly well, some of those who protested were here, in addition to many other curios members of our society.

We were asked tough questions about women's rights, the Prophet's ﷺ wives, and sharia law amongst many other topics and we gave honest answers.

We made many new friends and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive.

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

The longest sentence handed down to a violent racist rioter this week is shorter than the sentences imposed on entirely peaceful environmental protesters last month.
Labour must repeal the Tory laws that treat peaceful protest more severely than violent disorder and assault.

This is the #Brighton I know & love so much 💚💚💚

Our city will stand firm against any attempts to bring violent racism, Islamophobia, division and hatred to our streets #Brighton

Got to ask @Kent_cc what is the bloody matter with you ? There’s a biodiversity crisis , insects have declined by 70% in the last 25 years and we are one of the most nature depleted set of nations on earth . Get a grip will you .

[Nigel Witham @NigelWitham]

Fourth year in a row @Kent_cc and not one person ever complained about this wildflower verge on my boundary that you destroyed again today. Do you have too much money?

So much for your Bee Plan.

I signed an open letter, with 1000 others, condemning the 21 years jail sentences for five peaceful climate activists, the #WholeTruthFive (WTF).

We urge @AttorneyGeneral to meet @ChrisGPackham & @DaleVince to end repression.

BREAKING: More than 700 lawyers, celebrities and artists have called for an urgent meeting with the attorney-general to address the “injustice” of the historic sentences handed to five environmental activists for peaceful protest.

This is how it's done. This should be required viewing for the American press -- who are still engaging in bothsidesism, balance over objectivity, and false equivalencies. This is how you conduct an interview with a serial lying sociopath like Kari Lake.

Tells you everything you need to know about the water industry. Right there, in a single sentence.

Incredible to have absolutely trashed the place for the last 14 years then, within days of being resoundingly trounced, to be standing on the sidelines tutting about how the new govt is starting to clean up after you. As usual, the lack of humility and shame is off the scale.

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

“If non-voting was a party, it would have largest share of support by far”. Alarm bells should be ringing over lowest turnout since 1928 - just 52% of UK adults. A fairer voting system where all votes count has to be first step to rebuild trust - Labour?? https://t.co/0aPgzLzr4L

all those years of surviving without Sky TV and now Rishi Sunak can finally watch himself getting absolutely pasted on it #Skydebate

[Mike Galsworthy @mikegalsworthy]

Liz Saville-Roberts is spot on. You can’t address the cost of living crisis without addressing Brexit…

…and all the trade friction/costs that it has introduced, pushing up our prices everywhere.

[Geoff Mason 💚🌍 @SW19Womble]

Global drug companies implicated in the infected blood scandal here in the UK should be forced to pay into the compensation scheme for victims - not be bailed out by taxpayers. Agree? Sign the petition now: https://t.co/xAemXKL6pn via @38degrees

[sarah murphy @13sarahmurphy]

This is a report on the profound disgrace that is the Rwanda plan.
Now apply this level of spiteful uselessness to *everything* this Tory govt has done…
It’s why the country doesn’t work. Because these vicious Tory clowns smashed it up for cheap ‘likes’ and stupid slogans.

[sarah murphy @13sarahmurphy]

Read this. Bookmark it. Share it.
An epically disgraceful legacy from the most corrupt, dishonest, vicious and useless govt of our lives.
When Sunak simpers that his ‘plan’ is working, when Tories brag that they know best, think about all of this.
And then vote them out for good.

[Mike Galsworthy @mikegalsworthy]

With Nigel Farage saying he’ll be back on Question Time tomorrow night…

…it looks like it’s time for everyone to read and share this open letter to @BBCNews again - about the data showing persistent overt Question Time bias.
