Hey White House, please remove the Tropic Thunder clip. We never gave you permission and have no interest in being a part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie.

@TRobinsonNewEra It was three asian lads that were stabbed. We don't know yet who did the stabbing. What if it turns out to be a white male? What will you all say then?

Ramadan off to a "peaceful" start in "Modern England" as 3 people stabbed in a mosque carpark in Smethwick, 18yr old killed.
English
@LozzaFox Aww. Using religion to show you are better than other people. Christian institutions and states have at times sanctioned crusades, inquisitions, forced conversions, and abuse, where faith, power, and politics fused.

There is no such thing as a “British” Muslim.
You are either British or a Muslim.
You cannot be both.
If you are the second.
Go live with your people.
We are Christians here.
Go home.
British Muslim Trust@BMuslimTrust
British Muslims are part of the fabric of Britain, and together we can ensure every voice is heard. We were truly humbled to welcome @MayorofLondon to the Official Launch of the British Muslim Trust, alongside so many inspiring speakers and guests. His powerful words reminded us of the incredible contributions British Muslims make across the UK and the importance of reporting anti-Muslim hate to empower our communities. Accurate data on the lived experiences of British Muslims is what will drive policy change. This evening was a celebration of resilience, talent, and collaboration. We are proud to stand with leaders like the Mayor of London to build a safer, more inclusive society. #reporthate #antimuslimhate #mayoroflondon #britishmuslimtrust #reportnow

@SarahIronside6 Control the media, control the masses. It's the new opioid for the people
English
The pattern of billionaires buying up every major news outlet and social media platform to turn them into right wing propaganda machines so they can keep those in power who won't tax their wealth should terrify every sane person.

@jacktronprime @StephenKing If you agree with ICE, you are also complicit in murder
English
@StephenKing False.
He attempted to fire on a member of law enforcement.
If you don’t want to get shot, don’t interfere with law enforcement operations.
It’s not that complicated.
English
@elonmusk Why are you inciting murder?
Elon Musk@elonmusk
Falsely labeling non-violent people as “fascist” or “Nazi” should be treated as incitement to murder
English
Why is the UK government so fascist?

The UK has the highest arrests for social media comments in the world This is not a free country 🇬🇧

@SamanthaTaghoy Just stop eating meat if you care about animal welfare. Or doesn't that fit your narrative 🙄
English
So boiling lobsters while they’re alive (ie. can feel pain) is being banned because it’s cruel to animals and causes unnecessary suffering…
…but it isn’t cruel to refuse to stun animals, slit their throats, then hang them up so the blood drains from their bodies????

@Sam_Mindset @TRobinsonNewEra Vast majority of countries were built by immigrant. Look at America and parts of the UK.

@DavidOlusoga @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Thanks, that makes sense. I did some digging as it is part of my heritage, and I only meant that the earlier Laois–Offaly (1550s) and Munster (1580s) plantations meant the framework was already there before Ulster and Virginia. Your point on the overlap is right
English
@DavidOlusoga @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Absolutely, they were concurrent, and the exchange of people and ideas between Ulster and Virginia is important. My point is simply that Ireland remains essential to the story of the empire, and excluding it changes how that wider history is understood.
Much respect . Sam

My new series - Empire With David Olusoga - starts 9pm on @BBCTwo. Whole series on @BBCiPlayer from tonight.
English
@DavidOlusoga @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Thank you, David. I’ll look forward to watching that series. It is reassuring to know Ireland will be given the space it deserves within the wider story of the union and the empire. Much respect.
English
English
@DavidOlusoga @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Thank you for the clarification. I appreciate that you covered Ireland in a previous series, but its omission here still creates the impression that the empire began overseas rather than within the British Isles.
English
@intothebleach @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer It's not in this series because we told this history of Ireland as the first colony in my last series for the BBC. Getting history on television is really difficult and increasingly rare and so did not want to repeat. D bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

Did you catch episode 2 of the legacy of the British Empire on BBC2 tonight, let us know what you thought of Empire with David Olusoga below or get in touch with us at pov@bbc.co.uk!

#OnThisDay 1652 The 'To Hell or to Connacht' Act (officially the Settlement of Ireland Act) passed in the Rump Parliament in London, following Cromwell's war in Ireland. Catholic land ownership plummeted across the island as it was forfeited to adventurers.

@_bethanyrose No, because the British tried to perform a genocide of the irish people.
English
Why, when teaching the British about the Empire, is Ireland always missed out?
Hüseyin Dogru (Back-Up)@redstreamnet
Today, in 1916, Ireland’s single most famous challenge to centuries of British imperialism began, the Easter Rising. While Britain crushed the uprising and killed its leaders, it set off the process that expelled Britain from 26 Irish counties, today the Republic of Ireland. 🧵

Ignoring everything done to Ireland before 1800 for a second.
The "Irish" parliament rejected the act of union but the British came in & bribed, cajoled or threatened until they had a majority, with promises of Catholic emancipation.
Promises that were immediately broken.
