As someone who takes long breaks from Facebook because everything about it disgusts me, but who is loath to sever all remaining connection with some friends on it who have been very dear to me, I find this deeply disturbing.

I would also argue that whether or not it had decisive impact, surely the Russians trying to interfere in British democracy is a very bad thing?

The IMF have exposed the lie of the rwing. The UK stands out just behind India. Our debt payments would be £18.5bn pa lower in the euro. But still Reform Tories put out false propaganda on debt & the strength of the UK wrong so many times it is meaningless & purely self serving against UK interests.

If you rely on the BBC, you don’t know what's really going on. If you read a right wing rag, you really don't want to know what's going on. If you tune into GB News, you're probably a racist seeking confirmation of your delusions.

Russian strikes killed over 80 Ukrainian civilians in two days. Moreover, it has stepped up its hybrid attacks against Europe, both EU Member States and NATO Allies. Suspending sanctions on Russian diesel provides Moscow with more revenues to wage war.

Israel's reaction to the award of the Nobel Peace Prize to Navi Pillay They are not 100% happy for some reason.
Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA

Follow

♡

If there were an award for lies, hatred, and blood libels, Navi Pillay wouldn't just be a contender. She'd be a frontrunner.

Her role in the relentless, politically motivated demonization of Israel and promotion of the genoLIE speaks volumes.

Awarding Pillay the Nobel Peace Prize isn't a recognition of justice. It's the grotesque weaponization of an award to legitimize anti- Israel hatred and prejudice.

Now that the Nobel commission has rewarded the biggest lie of the 21st century, Joseph Goebbels is certainly applauding from hell.
