    “There is no state in this country where it’s legal to kill a baby after it’s born.” What a fact check for ABC to have to make during a debate… #Debate2024

    You literally host a show on RT - Russian state media. Not entirely sure how you can complain that you don't speak for the Russian government when it literally pays your wages.

    Fortunately the speech was filmed, so we know that the prime minister did not use the word “arms”, nor call on anyone to “take up arms and attack”, or “go for the enemy”. More on the accusations and the PM’s language here: news.sky.com/story/sir-keir…

    'The prime minister literally used the word "arms", take up arms and attack, go for the enemy, just the most extraordinary language' - @TiceRichard Reform UK's deputy leader is challenged by @darrenmccaffrey on claims Starmer called for violence against Farage's party.

    I’ve just watched the full video the Telegraph has obtained, and it would appear that a Jewish man may have been criminalised for wearing a very small and common symbol of his faith. It is *shocking* that neither the arresting nor interviewing officers figured that out.

    Here is James Cleverly telling parliament in a written statement in November 2022 that the Conservative government - in which he was then Foreign Secretary - was starting negotiations with Mauritius over the Chagos Islands.

    Weak, weak, weak! Labour lied to get into office. Said they’d be whiter than white, said they wouldn’t put up taxes, said they’d stand up to the EU, said that they be patriotic. All lies! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
    Readers added context
    UK and Mauritius began negotiations on the exercise of sovereignty over the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT)/Chagos Archipelago back in November 2022 when James Cleverly was Foreign Secretary. theguardian.com/world/2022/nov…

    What’s interesting here is that this statement implies Lee Anderson MP would not have been suspended had he apologised. But not even two weeks ago, the Tories were demanding (rightly) that Labour suspend Azhar Ali, despite a grovelling public apology…

    Putting aside that this is not how democracy works in any way, shape, or form - the government needs to figure out how to deal with Elon Musk and his interventions, because this is not sustainable.
