🧵 As front-page headlines go, this has to be one of the most misleading I've seen in a long time It's an out-and-out lie But notice the trick they use to get away with it...👀 *They're* not lying - they're just quoting someone else who is👍🏻 In this case, the leader of the opposition🙄 1/33

Reform won five MPs in 2024. Today’s YouGov MRP puts them at 123. Their polling has slipped but this would still mean the largest far-right presence in parliament in UK history. 🧵

We should be proud that being British is something that unites people regardless of their skin colour. If today’s parties of the right want a backward-facing, exclusionary patriotism – Labour will fight against them, and we’ll win.

Ryan Bridge, national leader of Raise the Colours, has been charged with 14 public order offences after RTC’s flag-raising activities in Oxfordshire. The charges relate to reported incidents between 31 January and 31 March, which includes the day when Bridge and acolytes “flagged” Abingdon Road.

Thank you @gilltav.bsky.social for reminding us all of the Police response in 2021 👇 when some 40 environmental activists of Insulate Britain blocked the Port of Dover: 39 arrests. Compare that to yesterday when 200-400 fascist paramilitaries intimidated Dover town and blocked the Port: 0 arrests.

Forget the journalistic frustration for people like me and Carole that most ignored the Banks revelations, Russian links and Cottrell PayPal ruses, 7 or 8 years ago. More important is that Farage doubled up with his double dealings in the years since, because of sense of impunity

This is fascinating. The BBC’s own scrutiny of its flagship TV News discusses its clear bias towards selective reporting of crimes committed by immigrants & asylum seekers and no one from the News team will defend it. What is going on behind the scenes? www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...
