They will go after Wikipedia.

They will go after libraries.

They will go after school boards and public extracurricular activities that are anything but sports.

They will go after archives.

Because knowledge, education, culture, and progressives are all the enemy.

Thinking is the enemy.

We can’t let Elon Musk do to British politics what he’s done to X. His financial influence over our elections must be prevented, with tough rules against obscene foreign donations.

"By letting Musk set the news cycle, he’s also allowed to set the political cycle. This is exactly what he wants."

Musk’s election interference is a serious threat.

But it can be challenged if governments use their powers and we stop letting the world’s richest man set the news and political agenda

Bad data in, bad data out. These algorithms speedrun showing the bias in our systems.

This is a failure of democracy.

82% of the public want water back into public ownership, but we weren’t part of the decision.

Now we’re stuck bailing water companies out for decades of recklessness.

We need a new water system where everyone has a say.
