It is not the police saying no evidence of law breaking. It is Democracy Volunteers themselves telling the police that what they witnessed did not reach the level of lawbreaking.

Magnificent article & investigation by Alan Rusbridger on how the utterly useless Ofcom allowed one of its regulated TV channels, GBNews, to be taken over by a political party.
Peter Oborne@OborneTweets

A massively consequential investigation by Alan Rusbridger into GB News: how "one political party in Britain has effectively ended up with its own television station". Raises deep questions about hi-jacking of British media/political culture: thenewworld.co.uk/alan-rusbridge…

Reform is treated by much of the broadcast media as though it is the official Opposition and next government. Could @ChrisMasonBBC @BethRigby @itvpeston etc therefore please apply to this scam the same levels of scrutiny and news value as the lesser sums involved in the tax affairs of @AngelaRayner …. Thank you for your attention to this matter and well done @Gabriel_Pogrund

EXCL: Richard Tice avoided £600K in corporation tax after acquiring legal status which experts say is rarely seen for a firm like his Reform MP then channeled dividends to offshore trust, pension vehicle and dormant entities — many of which didn’t pay tax thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

Even a declaration of no quarter, even without action, is a war crime and has been for more than a century. So, you know, the SecDef just did a crime - often treated as a hanging or firing squad offense - on TV, presumably because he is too dumb to realize what his words mean.

Hegseth: No quarter, no mercy for our enemies. Yet some in the press just can't stop. More fake news from CNN reports that the Trump administration underestimated the Iran war's impact on the strait of hormuz. The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better.

This is difficult to watch, it's embarrassing, it's enraging, it's shameful. Emma Reynolds the Secretary of State for the Environment and David Hill the head of water at Defra appeared before MPs on Tuesday where they repeated the same old lie, that water company shareholders invest their money in the companies and we, the bill payers, pay them back over 10, 15, 20, 30 years. Even Ofwat have owned up, that's a lie the £104 billion "private sector investment" is coming directly out of your pockets, your bank account. For God sake just tell the truth. Barry Gardiner, you're a star. 👏👏👏
Barry Gardiner MP@BarryGardiner

Since privatisation water companies have taken more than £85billion in dividend and piled up more than £60billion of debt. Yet all capital and operational costs are covered by bill payers. So why keep a privatised structure for a natural monopoly like water?
