In April, I was ‘disappeared’ from air at LBC. It was a disorienting, distressing & isolating experience. Unknown to me, 1 listener, a respected scientist, began an unprecedented petition to express his concern. 40,000 of you signed it. I’d never met that listener - until... @davidpnoble.bsky.social

The fact that the government aren't automatically banning arms sales to a wanted international war criminal is pretty disturbing.

Journalists, Dr. Jay Bhattachayra wanted to maximize infections in unvaccinated people under 70 or so, because he thought this would lead to herd immunity in 3-6 months. Not telling this to readers is to misinform them. Plenty more examples are available.

The government is lying about the economic prospects for the UK. The 1.4% increase in GDP @uklabour.bsky.social are talking about will not happen for another 50 years. Meanwhile trade will reduce by 15% Because of Brexit. Labour needs to be honest and tell people what Brexit will cost them.

People still think the Israel/Palestine conflict is about sides It’s not It’s about a conflict that has become so grotesque that it is in clear violation of every global treaty defining “war crimes” It’s about whether you believe in the “rules of war” or are happy for world conflicts to unravel.

Yup - that’s exactly what I said. Brexit used to be about the EU versus tales of ‘freedom’. Brexit happened and failed. Now Brexit has taken a desperate final form - Trump. In him Brexiteers see salvation of their dead project. But at least it’s now clear. The UK must choose Trump or the EU.
My quotes in the FT — in short, the UK is now going to enter a messy tug-of-love between the US and EU.

No farmers no food! An odd slogan given farmers paid inheritance tax prior to 1985 and in 1984 Britain was 78% self-sufficient, but by 2023 that self-sufficiency had dropped to just 62%. It's almost as if rich elites buying up land to avoid inheritance tax has been detrimental.
