The architects of austerity didn’t just want to reduce debt or asset-strip the welfare state and privatise anything that moved. The cuts go into people’s very minds | Nick Hubble @bylines.cymru

Highly dishonest framing - falsely implies that the EU started this trade dispute or that it is responsible for it by responding to Trump's tariffs; also falsely implies that it is primarily between the EU and US. In fact Trump wants a trade war with everyone everywhere all at once.

You might expect that one of the world's biggest media organisations admitting to illegal practices in accessing private information about a member of the royal family and a government minister would be front page news across the board, but apparently not.

Just in from mammoth interview session to two bits of news. One that a DV perp got locked up because of something I did and that a vulnerable constituent had a a massive wrongful debt written off after our intervention. This is why I came to politics, this is why I'll just keep cracking on.

Trump is the new Hitler. Seeks territorial expansion, Bullies less powerful nations, Wants to deport millions, Deny citizenship to local born, Silence critical voices, Supported by the rich. Has admirers in the UK. Massive failure of western education/politics. Save the future. Oppose fascism.

What a thoroughly nasty man Elon Musk is. No-one elected him. He’s just a huge troll sat on a pile of gold, chuckling about what kingdom he can smash up next.

Make no mistake. Every politician, pundit & online grifter amplifying Musk's dangerous lies will be aware of this intervention by now. Make no mistake, they are choosing to mislead the public & politicise the suffering of victims in the shameful pursuit of political advantage, attention & clicks.

I see three distinct phases. Pre-Fox, when opinion was diverse but actual facts were indisputable. Fox/Trump, where objective truth was subjected to the false equivalence of ‘alternative facts’ (ie lies). And now, where media & tech platform owners collude with him to drown out the truth altogether.

I don't understand the political timidity when it comes to regulating social media. These are companies that have decimated the free press, fuelled race riots on our streets, undermined the mental health of our children, paid little tax and are now undermining liberal democracy itself.

I just don’t think remaining on X is consistent with good values any more. He uses his ownership of X and his massive following and his abusive leveraging of algorithms to stir up violent trouble in the U.K. and breach of the rule of law by promoting those who promotes riots like Tommy Robinson

If you're interviewing a Trump apologist in the UK media/politics sphere, don't ask about trade, tariffs or even NATO until you've asked about the coup attemt, the sex offending & the felonies. These people claim to care about all the things that Trump denigrates daily. Call them out on it.

Just Elon Musk vapidly retweeting Netanyahu claiming that the International Criminal Court decision against him personally was an "antisemitic decision". Bizarre. America is going to a very dark place - and America and Europe are drifting apart on many issues. Me? I'm with Europe.

Worth noting… That the next most signed petition after asking for a 2nd EU referendum (4.1m) Was when 1.8m Brits petitioned to stop Trump making a state visit to the UK And that was prior to the 34 felonies, fascism and sexual assault liabilities Possibly needs a re-run…
