If Elon Musk had been an extremist imam making the same speech as that with which Musk addressed the Robinson rally, the demand that he be sanctioned would be overwhelming. But no. The hypocrisy from some erstwhile defenders of British values is stunning.

Elon's Spies. ⁦@tortoise⁩ smashes it yet again. Musk is a free speech hypocrite, a eugenics adjacent scientifically illiterate conspiracy nut bag, who is funding the election of a sex criminal and skewing social media to do it. shows.acast.com/the-tortoise…

If UK news shows are going to give Boris Johnson a platform to spout his absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it We cannot allow those once in power to rewrite history. If you agree RT this FACT CHECK

Every time Elon Musk retweets false information from EuropeInvasionn, I'm going to post this thread I did on EuropeInvasionn, and make this point - if anyone should've been arrested over Southport - it's EuropeInvasionn
🧵🚨I wanted to do another thread on the account @EuropeInvasionn. It's been one of the most widely viewed anti-immigrant & anti-muslim disinfluencers on X since the #Southport murders. Read more to learn about its shocking reach, disinformation, & hate speech #UKRiots

No, not 💯 Elon. In the U.K. they’re not going round ‘finding people who’ve said something they disagree with and putting them in a f—king cage.’ Some people are being charged for inciting racial hatred and for organising acts of violence. It’s very specific, and it’s the law in most democracies including the US. For example, one person has pleaded guilty today to inciting an attack on a hotel housing asylum seekers: an attack which then took place. Another hotel was set on fire, with people still inside. Freedom carries responsibility: and freedom of speech carries with it the responsibility of each of us to use our words wisely and to be aware of the damage misinformation can cause. To be clear, criminal violence directed towards various communities in the U.K. was perpetrated as a result of malicious and specifically targeted misinformation online. And it’s a relief no-one was killed. Words matter. And yet here you are, running a huge information network, and all you can do is post 💯 over something you choose not to verify for accuracy, not alert people to it’s highly damaging nature. In fact, because of who you are, your 💯 gives it a stamp of approval in the eyes of those who seek validation for their actions. What we say and do has real consequences. That’s because we’re not in a matrix, we’re in real life, and sticking 💯 on a lie doesn’t turn it into truth.

You seeing this, @ElonMusk?
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.

Carole is spreading misinformation about this (as are Darren Grimes, Tommy Robinson, Elon Musk, among others). Where is the quote from the Prime Minister that justifies this claim about "decent law abiding people" being called "far right thugs"
I’m wondering if those people who voted Labour in this year’s election on the basis they “couldn’t be any worse than the Tories” are satisfied now ? Are they happy great swathes of decent, law abiding people have justbeen branded “far right thugs” by our new Prime Minister?

What has Brexit done for the Conservative Party? "It divided them, drained them of energy, diverted them from getting on with other things." The Tories "never really recovered from Brexit," says @afneil. Do you agree?👇

This is true, but what's even more worrying from a campaign point of view is the fact no one around him said “no you can't just leave in the middle of D-Day. Are you mental?”
One thing Truss & Sunak have in common, very unusual among Prime Ministers, is their complete lack of a sense for history.

Creative Industries make up 6% of our economy. That’s more than car and oil industries together. They employ 2.3million people. To cut funding for creative arts at university level is fudge-brained, cack-hearted thinking pitched very much at the highest level of economic self-harm. theguardian.com/education/20…

I’m glad #Putin finally let himself be interviewed by a Western journalist — just sorry it was @TuckerCarlson, who didn’t ask a single hard question and allowed him to drone on, unchallenged. That’s exactly why they didn’t allow someone serious to do the interview, of course.
