I’ve demanded that Sky stops buying ads and funding hate on GB News. Join me and @GoodLawProject now to increase the pressure goodlaw.social/st08

It is my duty to report that the Daily Mail, through its lawyers RPC, seems to have abandoned its hopeless attempt to bully us into submission with feeble defamation threats.

Nigel Farage Is a 'Political Fraud' Who Must Be Exposed as an 'NHS-Privatising Putin Apologist', Says TUC Leader – Byline Times bylinetimes.com/2025/02/05/n...

Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%. That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Lesia Vasylenko, "A fair and just peace is the end of Russian aggression" "Pulling out all Russian troops and going back to Ukraine's 1991 borders" Fiona Bruce, "Do you think that's realistic?" Lesia Vasylenko, "It has to be realistic"

Putin is our enemy. NATO guarantees our defence. America now supports Putin. America no longer supports NATO. America is therefore also now our enemy. The only way to change this is for Americans to change their presidency. How they do that is their own business. History offers many suggestions.

Billboard for Luigi Mangione goes up in New York before his upcoming court appearance.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Remember when America had friends? Like a month ago?

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

When even the New York Post has to publish this, you know you fucked up.

During WWII, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived. His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. Sláva Ukrayíni!

The Daily Mail has for a long time been protecting a senior journalist who it knows to be a sexual predator. We are helping his victims get justice by suing the Daily Mail - and him. goodlaw.social/24jb

That’s more like it.

Hey DOGE bros - found some of that wasteful spending you were looking for. How many gov employees could have kept working and feeding their families with the estimated $2.5M this stunt cost?

It doesn’t fit with his right wing narrative. Shitweasel is more accurate 😉

Nothing from this weasel who stalks Rachel Reeves' LinkedIn account about the 2 million extra NHS appointments delivered by Labour. #ukpolitics

Douglas Hodge and Betty Gabriel are among the recruits for the new #JackRyan film, starring John Krasinski. More here.

Found it! Everyone can relax. (Took the check every pocket of every jacket you've worn this year approach...)

This is just weird now. This article even contains a lengthy & detailed dismissal of the confected ‘scandal’ from the *only qualified person prepared to go on the record*… www.thetimes.com/article/4bb9...

Sssshhhhh, they don’t investigate Tories or Reform Party Ltd, instead they amplify their vile right wing propaganda at EVERY possible opportunity

Question Time last night was pretty fierce. And had to be. There's a deliberate effort now to shift the ground: towards appeasement, inhumanity and authoritarianism. Once more, we must resist it. We must fight hard for kindness. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

If you know, you know

Why is there a witch hunt against Rachel Reeves? Rishi Sunak who was also Chancellor literally made his fortune in the financial crash at everyone's expense 🤷‍♂️ Inflating small indiscretions beyond all measure of proportion, that's toxic Is this really the type of society we want to live in?

So many stories, indeed written evidence, of families with a trans child receiving hostile treatment from the NHS, including threats of safeguarding referrals. If you have a trans child please think *very* carefully about giving the NHS *any* data about them or how you trying to help them.

When he's not sitting in the Oval watching his owner take charge, he's chilling at his crib on our dimes. The pos who whined every time Biden went to the beach. Such a waste of space.

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

Justin Trudeau: "There's not a snowball's chance in hell that Canada will ever be the 51st state"

🚨Media disinformation bulletin: James Price, writing in City AM, writes that "Net zero is making Britain colder, poorer and less productive". Quick🧵

Canadian politician suggests ‘100% tariff’ on Tesla to ‘hit back’ at Trump and Musk 'If Donald Trump wants to bring this fight, know that we are ready' Singh said he believed in being “good neighbours” to the US, but said he also “firmly” thinks that Trump “only understands force.” Do it… 🤭

His mask is going up every day.

🚨BREAKING: Federal court BLOCKS Trump plan to place 2200 USAID employees on administrative leave and orders 500 USAID employees to be reinstated while this case continues. A big victory for @democracyforward.bsky.social! Follow @democracydocket.com for full details. www.democracydocket.com

Allowing anti LGBT slurs to be broadcast without sanction, adds to a frightening homophobic and transphobic culture that is actively harmful. @goodlawproject.bsky.social have made it very easy to complain to Ofcom about GB News. 👇

There are no coincidences.

If you put it, privately, to GB News that they were trying to import the racism and hatred of Trumpism into the UK I doubt they'd disagree. We need to stop them - now. action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...
