Hello @ec.europa.eu,

You are still investigating whether X spreads lies and far-right propaganda, but you know all too well that Musk actively supports the fascist Tommy Robinson and the far-right AfD. How much evidence do you need?

#BanX if you don't want the far right to take over Europe!

Far-Right Activist Says Elon Musk Is Bankrolling His Trial Defense

Musk recently appeared by videolink at a massive London rally hosted by the anti-Islam activist, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.

So yet another one politician who’s attitude to immigration is this.

‘We need people so do come here. We will use you, make you work super hard for us, give us your money, but the moment you are no longer useful you can sod off to wherever, you can’t stay here, we hate you really’

Lam's proposal is to refuse future grants of ILR but to cancel past grants of permanent status to anyone who is not likely to be a fiscal net contributor, and anyone "who has accessed state support" once they got permanent status. That will revoke pledges to those told this was their permanent home.

Powerful, grubby men using their connections to cover their abuse of a trafficked teenage girl.

After all the revelations, it's never "not" shocking.

“Britain’s productivity..is expected to be downgraded in a review by the Office for Budget Responsibility..Officials expect it to say explicitly Brexit had a larger impact than first thought — leaving Reeves with no choice but to talk about the issue.” www.politico.eu/article/labo...

Why Labour got fighty again on Brexit

After years of staying quiet, Britain’s ruling party is preparing to blame its economic woes on leaving the EU.

Zack, you have the most British teeth in politics.

They are a national treasure and anyone who doesn’t like them are not patriots and doesn’t love “are country”.

I've got lots of things to say about Jeremy Clarkson.

Really not worth it. He knows his game is over and so is resorting to personal attacks.

Piss him off instead and

My experience from people’s vote rallies is these events give people immense hope for change, but organisers you must keep the momentum and DO NOT LET yourselves be divided by petty disagreements between organisers from across the range of political views that are represented by the movement.

Whenever I see Sir David trending I get a knot in my stomach thinking the worst.
He has brought such joy to multiple generations and has been an unrivalled champion for our planet.
I don’t think I’ve ever been as star struck and overwhelmed to meet someone as when he spoke at my university

“By a whopping two-to-one margin, voters now favor the pre-2021 immigration system to the one that has taken shape since leaving the EU…Some 4% of the public say they would prefer “Britain’s immigration policy prior to leaving the European Union” #Brexit
www.politico.eu/article/labo...

Brits are pining for the pre-Brexit migration system

The idea was that leaving the bloc would give the U.K. back “control” of its borders and create a fairer system. But the widespread perception is it didn’t turn out that way.
