Any broadcaster airing Wes Streeting on the future funding of the NHS should, for transparency, also show the people and companies linked to private health who are paying him to say it.

A wise man once said, "Open the strait or I will covfefe". Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Well, Tucker’s not fucking wrong is he??! British media clutching their pearls

I'm honestly shocked. The BBC quotes Republican politician Randy Fine calling Tucker Carlson an antisemite. Randy Fine is an extreme racist. And I mean, really extreme. He has said: "If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one." "‘Palestinian’ is just another word for demon." In reference to "mainstream Muslims", he said: “I don’t know how you make peace with those who seek your destruction. I think you destroy them first." “There is no suffering adequate for these animals. May the streets of Gaza overflow with blood.” "“Palestinian” = Hamas. #BombsAway" "Gaza must be destroyed." These are all direct quotes. I could go on. What was the BBC thinking? How could they possibly conclude that this was an acceptable person to quote on anything, let alone on the question of racism? If a Republican politician had said similar statements about Jewish people, would the BBC quote them? No, they would not, they would - rightly - think that would be a scandalous thing to do. Seriously, what the hell is the justification here? What is the defence? How are Muslims supposed to do anything other than conclude that the BBC has contempt for them?

Shame on @vicderbyshire for debasing herself as a journalist & joining in the use of the 'antisemite slur' to attack a legitimate point of view. And props to @TuckerCarlson for pushing back & calling it out. We need more of this against msm , please, especially the @bbc

It was telling to see @vicderbyshire, who is without doubt a vast improvement on @bbclaurak, suddenly become stony faced when talking to Tucker Carlson this morning. His clear highlighting of Israel's hand in all mid East conflicts was not in line with the BBC rules!

Greta Thunberg is right.

ANTI-SEMITIC SMEAR CALLED OUT ON THE BBC! @TuckerCarlson to @vicderbyshire 'I've been in the business longer than you and I know what a slur looks like - and you're attempting to call me an anti-Semite in a passive aggressive way.'

After years in development, Harriet Gardens has opened in Rutherglen as Social Bite’s second homeless village in Scotland. The £3 million supported living community includes 15 single-person modular homes, a central community hub, and shared facilities designed to provide a more stable alternative to hostels and other temporary accommodation. The project was developed in partnership with South Lanarkshire Council and is run day to day by The Salvation Army. Residents are expected to stay for around six to 12 months, with wraparound support aimed at helping them move into long-term independent housing. Organisers describe Harriet Gardens as a purpose-built response to homelessness that combines housing, support, and community in one site. The opening follows a three-year wait and builds on the model first tested by Social Bite in Edinburgh, which has supported around 100 people since 2018.

🚨THIS WEEK MP’S WILL VOTE ON A BILL TO GIVE POLICE UNPRECEDENTED POWERS TO BAN RECURRING PROTESTS TURNING A FUNDAMENTAL FREEDOM INTO A PRIVILEGE GRANTED BY THE STATE We cannot allow this government to create a society where protest is treated as a privilege granted by the state rather than a right held by the people. The right to protest is precious and must be defended. ITS NOT TOO LATE to stop this shocking and shameful attack on our fundamental right to protest. More than 40 civil society groups including the TUC and Greenpeace have joined forces to oppose this draconian crackdown on our right to freedom of expression and assembly - and you can help too by CONTACTING YOUR MP RIGHT NOW - tag them to this film and and ask them to oppose this

This feels relevant again today

Following in @Heccles94 footsteps, I have monetised my account so I can use the proceeds to donate to charity. Might as well put my X activity to good use! So for all the Far Right on here - keep engaging! Keep calling me names! This month the money will go to Medecins Sans Frontieres. 😊

Who are the terrorists?

"BUT IRAN ARE REPRESSIVE AND DO NOT ALLOW PROTEST! @sarahsackman: "Hold my beer"

A huge amount of respect for @AlexCrawfordSky who has shown herself to be a rare actual journalist in a sea of stenographers. Journalists should report what they see, as it is, not what they are told. This is how we preserve humanity & democracy

Whoever tweeted this should resign. You’re the home office not the Daily Express.

Wes Streeting says the Green Party has "pie in the sky ideas". Here's two of those ideas: ✅️A fully funded NHS. ✅️Taking Wes Streeting's seat at the next general election. Not "pie in the sky" at all - both achievable and essential. Join.greenparty.org.uk

It’s a bit telling that you don’t

Starmers Britain. 🇵🇸
