Of course Reform cheerleaders BBC platform Gawain Towler, who was recorded saying he was racist every day at school. He seems to be having a meltdown despite this #politicslive

Need a bigger sample but a potential signal that being racist scumbags doesn't have mass appeal. Also polls are snapshots not predictions, so will refrain from the tiresome GE extrapolations #bbclaurak

Tories want to reduce Labour's employers' NI payments that helped keep workers healthy enough to work. Their Victorian-era approach to workers belongs in that era - welfare fraud is a tiny drop compared to corporate greed, price gouging & their own covid contract fraud #ToryConference #KemiBadenoch

Your daily reminder that immigration went up as a direct result of Brexit. Back when we were in the EU we had the Dublin Agreement to send people back. The answer would seem to be to align/rejoin the EU if we really want to control our borders. #bbcqt

Fair play Ed Davey for condemning masked racist thugs on the streets of Britain. Why is it left to a Lib Dem leader to fill this chasm? #EdDaveySpeech #LibDemConference

Lisa Nandy is a LFI chocolate teapot culture secretary. Under her watch, expensively educated media racists flood the UK's national discourse with fear and division. She's a handmaiden for genocide and billionaire divide and conquer #r4today

As long as tories refuse to grasp how their dumb economic ideology like austerity and Brexit ruined Britain, they will never get near power again. Totally deserved for an unpatriotic party of sociopaths #r4today

80 year-olds with pro-Palestine signs: arrested as terrorists. Greens planning to block a road, to highlight an existential crisis: sent down for years. Masked far-right thugs blocking roads and ports, using intimidation, obstruction & threatening behaviour: no arrests. The real two-tier policing.

Name five albums that helped shape you: Guns n'Roses - Appetite For Destruction Tricky - Maxinquaye Pavement - Slanted & Enchanted My Bloody Valentine - Loveless Miles Davis - Kind of Blue #5Albums

Disclosure: #WelcometoGlasgow is the kinda sensationalist schlock journalism that is soft on racist thugs. You'd expect it to be on Channel 5. It should be covered in way that seeks solutions

No wonder Britain is in such a mess with our deference to a billionaire-run toxic media hounding any black and brown person for any misstep while giving a free pass to mass corruption, Oxbridge, neglect and greed. Absolute scumbags #JasonArday

On the left, a homepage thumbnail the BBC used for a potentially inflammatory story that could endanger the safety of black and brown people. On the right, a pic they included in the story that could have lessened the threat and informed the public #Edinburgh #BBC #newsnight

Never forget how the Oxbridge media wanted this smirking prick to return as PM #WHUFC #TransferNews #No10North

That shiftless sack of shit Boris Johnson is still costing London Β£19m a year from beyond the political grave. β€œThe committee had invited Karim Virani, CEO of WHUFC, and former mayor Boris Johnson but neither was able to make it.” NO! REALLY? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Gillian Keegan is exactly the type of performative TV politician who plunged this country into toxicity for 14 years. Labour should learn the lesson #newsnight

My dad served in the Falklands. I'm far more bothered about right-wing dominance of our national discourse than I am about a banner at the World Cup. Instead of performatively thanking veterans, media & politicians should focus on improving UK infrastructure & services they rely on #politicslive

I wish Eurocentrics would try and understand what is a key part of S. American football and culture. Spare us the high horse when limited teams try and beat megastars with huge resources. The blame should be on the ref #FRAPAR

It's funny that bc of the tangibility of heatwaves, even the usual reactionary simpletons support intervention to manage this, and yet they cannot apply the same approach to general UK infrastructure or indeed national wellbeing, which will also stimulate economic growth #politicslive

Did any media hold Farage to account for his disgraceful "pure cold rage" comments or are the Oxbridge suits hoping for more race hate lynchings? #politicslive #C4news #newsnight
