This is a disgrace. Brave RNLI volunteers being called scum for risking their lives to save others at sea is just plain wrong. So I've signed an open letter of thanks for the RNLI letting them know these thugs do not speak for the rest of us. Add your name? 38d.gs/jpcf

'The Muslim religion is medieval' 😖 This is the kind of hateful narrative you're enabling if you advertise on GB News (Trailfinders, Boxt, Tufferman and more…) Push back: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/fight-the-... #stopfundinghate

Shop at the Coop, at local independent shops & markets where possible. Grow stuff wherever you can. Vote Green, as they appear to be the only Party currently expressing concern about our impending extinction. Tell anyone you know who reads the Mail to stop being an embarrassing moron.

Today's Express also promotes the dangerous trope portraying refugees as an inherent "danger" to women and girls. Today's Express advertisers include Tesco, Coop, NS&I, Ryobi & Gtech

On page 6, today's Express combines a demand to "get drilling" with the wildly misleading suggestion that fossil fuels are "clean energy"... Meanwhile on page 16, it worries about the severe impact of drought on British farming as "Extended periods of dry weather" are no longer "rare" 🤔

GB News rely on advertisers for income & for credibility. But no brand should be spending money in a way that supports toxic content like this. Get companies to pull their ads from channels that spread fear, division & misinformation. Send a message that hate will not be profitable #transphobia

It’s shocking how water companies have gotten away with polluting our waterways with sewage. We’re handing in our petition next week, and we need to make sure the Government can’t ignore us. We’re pushing for 350,000 signatures — can you add your name and help us get there?

Struggling to work out why Jenrick would single out these three Commonwealth countries rather than, say, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, whose citizens have exactly the same rights. It’s a head-scratcher.

Here is the full suspension letter from UGent that was sent to Nathan Cofnas, it shows ample reason for his suspension and potential termination. Including breach of contract, using the University of Ghent’s name and legitimacy to promote his racial supremacist views and causing reputational damage.

Do you know how much of a vile vulgar depraved despicable asshole you’d have to be to deliberately want to destroy a good-standing relationship with Canada?

I particularly appreciate this one Emma. In my opinion one of the most poignant and powerful pieces of your work I've seen.

One of the first "outrageous" claims I saw as Jason Arday's media hounding unfolded was that he ran 30 marathons in 35 days! Wow! What a thing to claim! And the newspapers all suggested there was no evidence he actually did it. Well, they clearly didn't look very hard 🙄 🧵 1/26

Do you want to hazard a guess at what this “jaw-dropping” list of freebies included? What luxuries asylum seekers might be being given “for free” in Thetford? Xboxes? Plasma TVs? iPhones? Ferraris? Let's take a look👀 🧵 1/22

The Press is gonna Press... duck and dive and twist and deflect and contorted and lie. They can't be allowed to get away with it.

The NYT knows very well what it's doing here. I was at the largest vigil for Jason Arday. There were no calls for censorship. There were calls for accountability. This is intentionally misrepresenting calls by Black people throughout the UK as a way of silencing them.
