A free press shouldn't mean a free pass to abuse ordinary people.
It’s time for independent regulation that holds power to account.

Rather than uphold free expression & human rights against tyrants in Russia, China, Pakistan & North Korea, the GOP has called a hearing on free speech to attack our democratic allies in Europe!
To the world's dictators & autocrats, have no fear: Trump & House Republicans have got your back.
You expect the anti labour propaganda from the right wing media like the Mail, Telegraph, Times, Express, GB News, BBC…but when it’s the likes of the Guardian, it hits different, and not in a good way #r4today
It's been a six month slog, but finally, we have hit the 10,000 target. Thank you to everyone who took part ❤️
Let's see the government's response.
On a personal note, I shall be withdrawing , hopefully, someone else will pick up the baton

The media coverage is not proportionate.
usual suspect press including the bbc?
Amazing 😁 I love a fly past
I was never a fan of Kuenssberg, but less because of bias and more because I think she's mediocre and overpromoted. But she's unwatchable nowadays. The technique (a Sun technique, actually) of dressing every point and every question as somehow coming directly from "viewers" is utterly disingenuous.
Watch, listen and learn.
EXPOSED: Fake water nationalisation tag would still save £3 billion a year.

Reform UK’s Sarah Pochin candidate for Runcorn called for cut in Winter Fuel Allowance!
Hard to explain away…
After locking her Facebook when announced as their candidate, it’s now open, and reveals that in 2017 she called for the same cut that Reform UK are campaigning against.
Here’s the video.
First past the post only works when two parties dominate. But now we’ve got four serious contenders in a system not built for it.
The May elections in Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire may show just how weird this could get.

Bill Gates claims AI will replace Doctors and Teachers within 10 years.
I suggest we replace completely useless billionaires right now and free up $20tn for 'investment'.
So why are we in the UK allowing Palantir - closely allied with Musk’s DOGE - access to our NHS data?
Susan Hall is now the subject of a complaint to the GLA monitoring officer over this.
Labour Assembly Member Leonie Cooper: "Reposting, sharing and making jokes... which depicts violence against politicians is beyond the pale.
"I hope [she] takes the opportunity to reflect and apologise.’’
Millions of people voted with their feet for a Second Referendum on the Brexit deal and we were completely ignored.
Mainstream TV pretended the marches never took place.
It's the same with this. They who control the media control the message.
No MP or anyone in government should ever take any free gift, of any size ever. That should be the cut and dry rule. I also think all political donations should be outlawed, second jobs, lobbying etc. Time to clean up politics. You'd soon see who is in it for genuine reasons.
JUST TO CLARIFY…👇
Also. Douglas Carswell doesn't even live in the UK anymore. He lives in Jackson, Mississippi.
If we are “all in this together” I fail to see why the taxes of the very wealthy are being protected?
This will probably come as no surprise to anyone but..
The recent North Sea cargo collision has unleashed a devastating plastic spill, threatening Norfolk’s fragile wildlife and coastline .
Plastic nurdles are one of the most insidious forms – and largest sources – of pollution at sea.. and now a danger on Norfolk beaches...
www.nytimes.com/2025/03/18/o...
BREAKING: Plastic nurdles are washing up along miles of the Norfolk coast, including RSPB Titchwell, following last week’s North Sea collision.🚨
This area is vital for migrating & nesting birds.
We have just days to act before this pollution spreads further.

More than 30 organisations have urged the DWP to stop forcibly recovering debts from benefit claimants caused by its own mistakes
Last year there were 690,000 of these “official error” universal credit overpayment debts
By me, for the Big Issue www.bigissue.com/news/social-...
How Labour funded Ukrainian aid proved they can make clever economic decisions. The choices they’re making now are partly the consequence of ruling out tax rises and not backing tracking when shit changed. People would forgive that, most don’t mind paying a bit more tax, they won’t forgive this.
Imagine stooping so low as to use electricity as a bargaining chip says the monster who cut off intelligence sharing to Ukraine as a bargaining chip
