“The occupant of the Oval Office – the leader of the free world – seems happier to side with the brutal tyrant Putin than to support America’s allies. It feels like we have fallen through the looking glass” Sir Ed Davey www.independent.co.uk/voices/ed-da...

Independent news has never been more critical

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Shame….

Absolutely spot on from Rory Stewart

There is little to no fact checking or journalistic integrity left in the mainstream media, puppets to their billionaire and corporate overlords, the need for independent media has never been more critical

80 years ago Auschwitz was liberated. More than one million children, women and men were murdered there as part of the Holocaust. A dark lesson of history; humanity owes it to each of the victims to ensure it will never happen again. #HolocaustMemorialDay

Big Companies in 2020: "We are committed to learning & growing. Here is our plan to support diversity and inclusion in our company." The same big companies in January of 2025: "WHEW! GLAD THAT'S OVER!" *Tosses diversity plan and staff out*

"That progressives have failed to grasp how utterly tech has changed everything in our political culture – esp. given revelations of the role of psychological profiling through social media – is exploited by the right as a new ‘Wild West’. Elon Musk, is the most logical next step in this trajectory"

Brilliant satirical cover from Private Eye, mocking spineless media organisations and journalists who submit and cower in the face of power 👏

I’m not a religious person, but this brave lady has my utmost respect

Talk like a Nazi, salute like a Nazi..

If a man can’t give a Nazi salute at a party for a racist convicted fraudster and proven sex offender, then what kind of sick world are we living in, I ask you.

He’s back . And he’s doing exactly what he said he would . Executive orders to expand drilling in the Alaskan wilderness , the guise of a ‘National Energy Emergency’ to slash red tape and regulation for fossil fuel companies , and the withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement .

TikTok is back in the US. Didn’t expect them to be so honest about why though...

An early contender for headline of the year…

It would solve so many economic problems, I’d love to be proved wrong but I can’t see this government being brave enough to do what is needed

Nice to see this from the BBC but it doesn’t make headlines, the people Musks targets won’t read this, the lack of fact checking and spread of misinformation on social media is a threat to democracy

Mainstream media is more interested in clicks and rage bait than actual facts and responsible reporting - we’ve seen it with the amount of coverage Reform get vs the Lib Dem’s and Greens, we’re seeing it with Musk

Hollywood is on fire , yet still deniers clutch at straws to blame this on anything other than the real problem– climate breakdown . I’m petitioning for a ban on fossil fuel ads to take the fight to the companies who continue to exploit our fragile planet petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

One of my friends voted for Brexit, the day after the vote I told him that when we ‘remoaners’ are proved right they’ll be no glory or gloating to be had because our country will be f*cked…

On the one hand I do think Musk is given far to much attention which is exactly what the narcissist craves, on the other, pass me the popcorn!!

How is this open to debate?!
