I live in hotels and have three PAYG phones and hotspot off them for work, the most expensive way to access the internet outside of a cruise ship, and that costs me £500 a year tops, and that's if I watch a lot of Netflix in the evenings. So I concur.

The Jewish Leadership Council wants us to see Afghan, Palestinian refugees as extremists, antisemites in a glaringly Islamophobic post criticised by Baroness Meral & and a growing chorus of voices calling out their racism. Yet the same JLC supports Ukrainian refugees, which only exposes the racism.

Where does this end? Trying to lynch the paramedics that come to treat the victims of the next pogrom? Remind me how grannies with placards against genocide should be prosecuted as terrorists, but these "patriotic citizens with legitimate concerns" get carte blanche for violence and vigilantism.

Dover was not a spontaneous protest, or Portsmouth, they've been long in the planning. That the UK PM hasn’t addressed a paramilitary-style shut down of key infrastructure tells you everything you need to know about a cowardly state response. Intelligence services were absolutely across this.[1/n]

The clearest evidence that "Free Speech warriors" do not actually care about free speech and instead only want to implement fascism is that none of them have ever spoken up about the urgency of UK libel law reform. In fact many of them have boast about how they sue their critics into silence.

Incredible chart from @propublica.org. If you don’t follow enviro stuff closely, your instinct might be that the hold-your-nose solution (carbon capture from fossil fuels) would be the “pragmatic” one versus covering Earth in solar panels, which seems utopian. In fact it’s the opposite

Irish Government is squandering CTA rights in a race to the bottom to appease the right. A passport requirement, all because Ireland is imploding the CTA itself. 'Under the century-old CTA agreement, Irish and British citizens do not legally require a passport to travel between Ireland & Britain.'

In an alarming development, it appears the UK Government covered up a massive spike in trans youth suicides after restrictions. Then covered it up again when caught. Now, after fighting for years, the data is public: trans suicide increased 5x in the country. Subscribe to support our journalism.

A wild story that sums up so much about this moment. Rare books bought up by a hyperscaler, driven across the country by truck, scanned and fed into the woodchipper by low wage workers so the rich can build and own systems that squeeze, surveil, and automate labor and control knowledge generation.

Had to disable comments on clip of me talking about Jason Arday yesterday on lbc because of sheer volume vile comments suggesting (just as they did with George Floyd) that he ‘deserved’ it. I think Black people are getting pretty sick of the ‘be perfect or expect us to kill you’ routine.

There's something very grotesque about UK defamation law, since the press often delights in tearing down people without giving the defamed enough counterspeech without themselves getting a SLAPP suit. Same mechanism as the TERF movement there. The average pundit views their job as crybullying.
