Not worried enough to condemn it.

south305.bsky.social•51 days ago

Its disturbing to see this all happening.

I am deeply concerned about what is coming

Please 🙏 those from across the pond , just because Musk tweets something it doses not mean his words are gospel, instead take a breath . Kier Starmer and the Labour government has just got in , we had 14 years of Tories , Teresa May was P.M when this happened

elliemac52.bsky.social•50 days ago

Starmer needs to say how concerned he is as I’m scared not only a another race riot is about to happen , yet sadly what happened to the wonderful lab mp during Brexit

"Starmer was chief of the Crown Prosecution Service during the height of this scandal, and he did nothing. That, along with his fecklessness as prime minister, made him vulnerable, and so he's feeling particularly stung by Musk publicizing what is illegal for a British citizen to bring to light." RS

elliemac52.bsky.social•50 days ago

So your from California I take it hey suddenly an expert in our British politics because musk who could be helping the world instead tweets vile language. Don’t you have huge homeless issues , no health care there

californiarefugee.bsky.social•47 days ago

Vile language? That's your complaint? You've got no problem with all those children being raped and it being covered up by the UK authorities, including Starmer? One does not have to be an expert in UK politics to know that's just fucked.

elliemac52.bsky.social•47 days ago

It’s not being covered up that’s a distortion, there is a inquiry it was published in 2022 , the conservative were in power under Teresa May and in all these years did not do anything about 20 RECOMMENDATIONS

californiarefugee.bsky.social•39 days ago

Okay. Then the whole country is f'ed up.

We know about the horrendous abuse that happens the case that being distorted by Tommy lots of names was INVESTIGATED, there is a enquiry published in 2022 , calling Jess P a “witch “ is misogynistic vile language. Jess p has worked on helping abused children for years

Hey MAGATs,
How's that lowering of grocery prices lookin’ for ya? So far, Donald Duck and Elmo are focused on invading Greenland, monitoring the bathrooms, and passing huge tax cuts for their billionaire buddies. LMAO. You chumps got rolled again by the Republikans.

Sorry I'm late getting back to you, genius.
Earth to You: The guy STILL hasn't even been sworn in. Meanwhile, the Bidenites are killing DEI programs and even banning red dye before RFK does it for them. Resigning left and right. Trump is winning even before he takes the effing oath!! Love it!

theyownitall.bsky.social•39 days ago

LMAO. Biden isn't killing any DEI programs. A few companies altered their stated programs. And the ban on red dye has been in the works for 9 months. Where do you get your "facts": Facebook or Fox?

bill6750.bsky.social•50 days ago

You might want to consider that Starmer left office as DPP with the highest conviction rate for child sexual abuse since records began at 76%. He opened up dormant cases that brought justice to many who would’ve been forgotten.

californiarefugee.bsky.social•47 days ago

Whatever. Now tell me why those hundreds of Muslim rapists were ignored and why Labour just voted to suppress any investigation of that question. Focus!

bill6750.bsky.social•47 days ago

Police records today. 83% of grooming gangs are white. 3.7 % Pakistani origin. They’ve all been investigated and mistakes made. The 22 Jay report recommendations are now being enacted.

californiarefugee.bsky.social•39 days ago

Citation on those ethnic stats, please?

paullypops.bsky.social•51 days ago

X should be on formal notice in the UK. Targeted inflammatory language = incitement to violence.

joe1st.bsky.social•51 days ago

It's quite obvious that something needs to be done to tame the lies and misinformation on X in the UK. We have proper democracy here. We need to stand up for it.

anthand650.bsky.social•51 days ago

She’s worried she’ll lose the Muslim vote.

purpletea280.bsky.social•51 days ago

She’s worried she’ll lose her life to some right-leaning sicko.

tomajar.bsky.social•51 days ago

Why are not all Labour MP's - indeed all MP's not abandoning aka boycotting X / twitter and come here instead? This is the good place right?

harvestime.bsky.social•51 days ago

The porn bots arrived here now. It’s only a matter of time I fear

harvestime.bsky.social•51 days ago

A pretty dignified response to some disgusting rhetoric

stevecrowther.bsky.social•51 days ago

This was a car crash interview with @vicderbyshire.bsky.social's foot on the accelerator.

sallyapiacere.bsky.social•51 days ago

Yes, I thought so too. He couldn't go off-script and respond to her question about who Starmer was referring to - and it was an opportunity to make an important point. Eventually he answered it, ish, but so slow-witted that even I (a LP member) was muttering, 'Answer the question!'.

stevecrowther.bsky.social•51 days ago

So am I, but this isn't nearly good enough (& I like Stephen Kinnock). Musk is primarily a shit-stirrer. Unfounded bile from Musk + irresponsible right wing media coverage = 3p Lee + 'Pakistani' grooming gangs = fuel for the Reform agenda. Starmer called it out. Proud of him.
