🚨 New from me 🚨 Andrew McIntyre, the creator of the notorious 'Southport Wake Up' Telegram chat, has now been sentenced to 7 1/2 years for his role in stoking the riots in August. Read on for the full story of how @hopenothate identified him: 🧵⬇️

Of course AI didn’t write your whole book @GoodwinMJ. But this explanation in @spectator for the false quotes is laughable. How did you get them wrong? Transcribing while drunk? Translating into Urdu and back? I think these are AI hallucinations you didn’t bother to check.

@s8mb To what extent was your lower productivity a result of having a baby in the house, though?

I’m not a “work from home” guy by any means. But I’ve done it a bit lately and it’s certainly nice to see my family during the day. I can see why it’s so popular. But, and it’s a big but, my productivity is unquestionably lower. There’s just no substitute for the office.

@Periklas1 @MrsLocke5 @Mr_Andrew_Fox YHamas is proscribed. We can proscribe any other offshoots that commit terrorism too. But if we want to ban a group that “pursue their aims incrementally, through institutional penetration rather than immediate violence” then we can’t use terror legislation.

@GregoryDavisHNH @MrsLocke5 @Mr_Andrew_Fox You’re fully aware that Hamas is an official offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt? It seems to fit the criteria of the law. Besides that I’m sure that as a supporter of western democracy you are totally opposed to Islamist infiltration of government institutions?

New campaign just launched to ban the Muslim Brotherhood in Great Britain. Must follow

@MrsLocke5 @Periklas1 @Mr_Andrew_Fox This is the criteria that has to be met. If, as the article says, the MB pursues its aims “incrementally […] rather than immediate violence” then it is not a terrorist organisation and the Home Secretary does not have the power to ban it.

@GregoryDavisHNH @Periklas1 @Mr_Andrew_Fox It does, absolutely. Hamas started out in the mosques and doing charitable work in the community. You should read up on what Hassan Al Banna (the founder) said and wrote rather than challenging on here. Go educate yourself

@Periklas1 @Mr_Andrew_Fox Right, and in the op-ed they admit that the Muslim Brotherhood does not pursue their aims through the use of violence. If you want to grant every future government the power to ban groups with ideologies they dislike, you’ll need a new law for that.

@GregoryDavisHNH @Mr_Andrew_Fox It seems you do. Many Arab countries have already banned them. Do you think they’ve made a terrible mistake?

@Periklas1 @Mr_Andrew_Fox An irrelevant question. We’re talking about the power to proscribe groups under terror legislation, which is supposed to be for groups that commit or incite terror. We don’t have any laws that allow proscription for holding shitty views.

@GregoryDavisHNH @Mr_Andrew_Fox What do you think the impact of gradual islamisation of society would be for you?

Greater Manchester Police say they have no evidence of family voting after an extensive investigation, including speaking to Democracy Volunteers and seizing CCTV: We’ve concluded our investigation into alleged ‘family voting’ at last month’s Gorton and Denton by-election, finding no evidence of any intent to influence or refrain any person from voting. Our investigation into alleged influencing of voters at a polling booth (under Section 62C Representation of the People Act 1983 (Ballot Secrecy Act 2023)) began after a criminal report from the Reform UK party following a public statement made by independent electoral observers at Democracy Volunteers. We have spoken to the four Democracy Volunteers observers present at polling stations on the day of the by-election (26 February) who have shared with us their eyewitness account. This includes some instances of more than one voter going into a booth at the same time, and instances of people looking over the shoulder of voters. The information they have provided to us estimates this may have happened on 32 occasions across 15 polling stations. The observers do not allege any verbal instruction or physical conduct that indicated one person was directing or coercing another regarding how to vote. This is a crucial part of the legislation to prove such an offence was committed. Our investigation team, led by an experienced senior investigating officer, spoke to all four volunteers from Democracy Volunteers as part of our enquiries – obtaining a copy of their observations. We also spoke to the Presiding Officers at 15 stations as well as the Acting Returning Officer, none of whom received any reports other than from Democracy Volunteers. We have received no further criminal reports. For us to investigate allegations, we require an understanding of who the potential suspects may be, and evidence that may corroborate eyewitness accounts. For an investigation to meet the criminal threshold for prosecution, we require admissible evidence of intent or action aimed at influencing the vote. We have asked Democracy Volunteers for descriptions of those alleged to be involved, and timings on when these are believed to have occurred. These details were not documented by observers or the complainant, and we have not been provided with any identities or descriptions to pursue. The absence of this information means there is no remaining reasonable line of enquiry. This also includes limitations with CCTV as an absence of descriptions, and votes not being time-stamped, meaning we are not able to identify individuals from footage. We have approached all 45 polling stations in the Gorton and Denton constituency to ask for CCTV from the day. Forty-one of those polling stations told us they did not have CCTV activated in the building as it would have compromised the secrecy of the vote during polling day, in line with advice given. We have seized and viewed CCTV from three of the remaining four polling stations. These are three polling station that Democracy Volunteers visited. We have spoken to the Presiding Officer from each one. However, these stations do not show any evidence of anyone directing or coercing another regarding how to vote – the crucial part of the legislation to prove such an offence was committed. There is no evidence to suggest any intent to influence or refrain a person from voting as stated in the Ballot Secrecy Act 2023. We have been liaising with the Electoral Commission, who we have shared our findings with. We have also shared our findings with the Returning Officer. We have updated the complainant about the work of our investigation and the conclusion we have reached.

🚨 UPDATE: Reform UK has suspended councillor Lynn Dean after HOPE not hate uncovered racist posts linked to an undisclosed account. Thanks to everyone who helped share the story. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

“Israel cannot continue to…” And what if it does? What’s the logical conclusion?

The fact that settlers commit pogroms while the army stands watch, and the legal system then fails to prosecute the perpetrators very much lends weight to the “apartheid state” theory, though.

And after seemingly rebutting Layla Moran’s suggestion that Instagram could be held to account for their algorithm’s effect on young people, he then says that the Chinese government is “editing” the TikTok algorithm of young people in the UK?

I really want to know what point @TomTugendhat thought he was making about algorithms. #bbcqt

I've today issued a public statement calling on Cllr Dean to resign from her elected positions in light of the ‘Hope not Hate’ article exposing her racism via the X Platform. This is the latest scandal involving senior figures within Reform UK at Staffordshire County Council.

New from @hopenothate! We expose the rotten social media activity of yet another Staffordshire councillor, just months after the leader of the Council had to step down for similar posts. Shockingly extreme stuff that Reform can't ignore! hopenothate.org.uk/2026/03/26/mor…

Martin Murray was sworn in today as the new leader of Staffordshire County Council. He vowed to “act swiftly, correctly, and severely” just this week if any more Reform councillors are found to be acting in a racist way. So, here’s is first test as another Reform County Councillor finds themselves in a racism claim. UKIP failure and now Reform Councillor Lynn Dean doesn’t like black people and Muslim’s according to this Hope Not Hate report. Well Mr Murray, it’s over to you. #ReformUK hopenothate.org.uk/2026/03/26/mor…
