An age limit for Social Media?

The Labour government has not ruled out a ban, saying "nothing is off the table" but that any ban must be "based on robust evidence".

Like the evidence for the decriminalisation of cannabis? THAT robust evidence?

Our system deifies risk aversion over happiness.

Thank you for this. They're really pushing the right wing boundary. I have revoked my membership.

This Faux Pearl Clutching from #KeirStarmer and #WesStreeting in response to the BMA and Resident Medical Staff, is far more Tory than anything Labour. Disgraceful. What happened to Collective Action and Worker Support? I can't believe where we have come to. Where #Conflict is the new #Consensus?

I'm getting tired of this President using his platform to verbally abuse and demean people in our country just because he can.

Hey dickhead, try doing your job better instead of focusing on all the 1980s put-downs.

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

What we need is the UN or a similar, maybe larger group, declaring @realDonaldTrump
