Just because I strongly oppose any measure to tackle Russian misinformation, doesn’t mean I’m on Russia's side. In unrelated news, one of the few times I bothered turning up for work as an MEP was to vote AGAINST measures to tackle the spread of Russian misinformation...

The RNLI have some of the best people in Britain volunteering for them. They put their lives on the line when they are called on and they will rescue anyone who needs them. Because every life matters, and offering help is the right thing to do. You can donate here: rnli.org

"They were careless people. They smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” This man did incalculable damage, while 'carried away.'
Headline: "Elon Musk says he got 'carried away' with Trump—but still holds onto contentious political views."

Similarly in the debate about net zero (a very popular policy) "but what if you ask if people are prepared for higher prices to pay for it?" / "need to be honest with voters about the costs" - noone ever does this re: cutting migration.

Musk's immense wealth has for years been based mostly in investors believing that he's a genius who will, someday, do something that generates an incredible amount of value and the dissonance between this belief and his ongoing failure to do so can only go so long before it must be resolved

It might happen!


Following Nigel Farage’s decision to resign and trigger a by-election in Clacton, Liberal Democrat Leader, Ed Davey, said:

"If this by-election does go ahead now, we are calling on all parties to stand aside and refuse to give oxygen to Farage’s vanity project.

"But the Government should just say no to Farage’s ego-trip and block his resignation until the Standards Commissioner has finished investigating him. 

"The people of Clacton should have all the facts before they cast their votes."

The BBC 10 o’clock news says the right wing idea of ethnic minorities being given preferential treatment in criminal justice is likely to become a “growing fault line in our politics” WITHOUT POINTING OUT THAT IT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE. What’s the point of the news if it doesn’t correct disinformation?
