Well let's see how this strategy of telling "white liberals" to "fuck right off" works out in the local elections

OMFG I had to go and check that this ACTUALLY happened.

Since when does the BBC ever do chyrons with a political party's branding, rather than their own? Not to mention this is during a pre-election campaign purdah.

Just because Caitlyn Jenner is an objectively horrible person doesn’t mean it’s okay to deadname her. Please don’t.

This week, Brexit finally killed our family business. We cleared out our warehouse, handed back the keys, paid the final bills and said goodbye to our last employee.
What was once a thriving firm died a slow, sad death, all thanks to Farage, Johnson and the gullible idiots they conned. 1/18

Reform candidate who met King exposed over vile anti-Muslim rants Daniel Devaney, standing in the local elections for Nigel Farage’s party in Bradford, posted on Facebook about ‘blasting’ followers of Islam off the face of the Earth

The true face of Reform.

He's wearing a gilet, so it's quite unlikely that he has any genitals at all.

A manifesto peppered with bigotry and a deep seated hatred for minorities, surpassed in it's cruelty only by Thatcher's pledges of the 1980's.

No thankyou.

Any Scotish Labour MSP campaigning on this disgusting manifesto will be immediately added to our Anti-LGBTQ+ Bigotry blocklist.

Scottish Labour have presented a manifesto more regressive, more bigoted, and more cruel than even Thatcher's Government's.

Anas Sarwar presenting a strong argument for Scots to reject Scotish Labour's core prinicples of hate and division, and to vote for the SNP instead.

Orbán's Hungarian experiment runs out of steam Péter Magyar's historic win offers peace for a country exhausted by the tensions of Viktor Orbán's rule, Nick Thorpe reports from Budapest.

BBCNews fails to mention Orban being "right wing" let alone authoritarian, once in this article. Apparently Orban just "ran out of steam". Nothing about him dismantling democracy, politicising the courts & universities, or banning independent media. No mention of Putin! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Orban’s defeat shows that when we stand together against the politics of hate and division, hope wins and the far right friends of Farage can be defeated.

The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world.

Wishing all Hungarians a happy and peaceful election day.

Even with the full might of Trump and Putin’s corrupt support behind him, Orban is toast.

🇭🇺 As we wait to know on Sunday the future of Hungary, the chances of Orbán’s defeat give hope that the rise of far-right in Europe can be stopped.

But his propaganda machine has spread over Europe.

We’ve been looking into it, here’s what we know:

A whole civilisation died tonight, it was the United States of America.

The failure to react to Trump by forcing him out of office today marks the death knell of the USA as a credible force for good in this world’s future.

Yes, the Albert Kennedy Trust is very much a good and efficient charity.

It's now been 3 hours since our supposed "ally" Donald Trump threatened genocide on a country of 93 million people.

We've had absolutely nothing from the UK government.

This doesn't come in a vacuum either - every day the US & Israel have been murdering innocent people.

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.

For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

We are going to be carefully monitoring our feeds tonight for accounts glorifying or celebrating the repulsive acts of violence and the war crimes threatened by the United States administration.

We’ll be adding all such accounts to the extreme violence blocklist:

The UK must immediately and unequivocally suspend support for the US military.

The Government have tried to appease him, then they tried to say they're standing up to him.

Words aren't enough - it's time for action.

Letter from Lib Dem MPs to Keir Starmer today calling on him to withdraw US access to UK air bases.

Liberal Democrat MPs have written to Keir Starmer today calling on him to withdraw US access to UK air bases. Donald Trump's latest shocking threats against Iran would amount to war crimes. The UK cannot be complicit.

Their recent attacks on large swathes of the community and their inability to advocate for anybody other than their advertisers, have put an end to that.

They haven’t been the queer community’s newspaper for quite some time.

For this reason we have today taken the decision in support of the entire LGBTQ+ community, to add Pink News to the following blocklists:

AI produced Content

Disinformation and fake news

Anti-LGBTQ+ Bigotry

Once the pinnacle of British LGBTQ+ journalism and advocacy, Pink News is now little more than an AI-first slop factory, churning out low-grade zero-effort engagement bait.

Whenever they do try some actual journalism, it is only ever to divide the community by pushing transphobia.

This isn’t news, or journalism.

We're on the verge of adding Pink News to the AI, Disinformation, and Anti-LGBTQ+ Bigotry blocklists.

Helena in Focus @sthelenafocus X.com Not only is Jonathan alive and well on St Helena, but during his time on the planet he has now seen off 76 US Attorney Generals, from the 11th Attorney General, Roger Brooke Taney, in 1832, to outgoing 87th Attorney General, Pam Bondi, in 2026. Jonathan is the great survivor.

In case you were wondering: Yes, there is a Jonathan the Great Tortoise angle to the Pam Bondi firing news.
