No, not 💯 Elon. In the U.K. they’re not going round ‘finding people who’ve said something they disagree with and putting them in a f—king cage.’ Some people are being charged for inciting racial hatred and for organising acts of violence. It’s very specific, and it’s the law in most democracies including the US. For example, one person has pleaded guilty today to inciting an attack on a hotel housing asylum seekers: an attack which then took place. Another hotel was set on fire, with people still inside. Freedom carries responsibility: and freedom of speech carries with it the responsibility of each of us to use our words wisely and to be aware of the damage misinformation can cause. To be clear, criminal violence directed towards various communities in the U.K. was perpetrated as a result of malicious and specifically targeted misinformation online. And it’s a relief no-one was killed. Words matter. And yet here you are, running a huge information network, and all you can do is post 💯 over something you choose not to verify for accuracy, not alert people to it’s highly damaging nature. In fact, because of who you are, your 💯 gives it a stamp of approval in the eyes of those who seek validation for their actions. What we say and do has real consequences. That’s because we’re not in a matrix, we’re in real life, and sticking 💯 on a lie doesn’t turn it into truth.

@OctopusDeploy Our renewal price has gone from ~$700 to ~$10,000? That's extortionate! Is there any justification for this?

@thehotpots @5liveSport Yep, but it was brought up by the new travel reporter under the theme of "songs with regional accents" :-D

RIP Alfie😥
Sad news reaching us tonight from Bedale Junior Football Club. A statement from the club read as follows - It is with great sadness that the club learned this week of the passing of our u10 player Alfie Hutchinson, who had been diagnosed with a brain tumour. We send our condolences to all Alfie's family and his many friends, many of whom have strong connections with our club. Alfie will be remembered as a smashing lad with a wonderful smile and a boy who absolutely loved football. As his mum Lou said: "heaven has gained a true angel."
As a mark of our respect for Alfie and his family a one minute silence will be held before all our games this weekend.

Thank you @SuellaBraverman - your dog whistle rhetoric made mine, and other people’s day at @LondonWaterloo extremely frightening. Your words have inspired racists to terrorise us and make it harder for @metpoliceuk to do their job today. You need to resign, NOW #ThankYouSuella
