Why are serious news programmes interviewing Nigel Farage on today’s net legal immigration figures? He’s not an expert, elected politician or former Minister.

Unelected Rishi Sunak has appointed unelected David Cameron as Foreign Secretary. It reeks of desperation.

The attacks on lawyers by this government - including Suella Braverman , Robert Jenrick & Rishi Sunak - is that of populist regimes throughout modern political history (see: Trump attacks on DoJ) Don’t fall for it. This country is better than that.

When Farage, his cronies & his political doppelgängers talk about “controlling immigration” they primarily mean preventing non-white people being British. People of colour everywhere are “sick of being punching bags” & “justifying our existence” as @DrAmirKhanGP explains:

If you’re going to the Pro Palestinian protest/march in London (or anywhere else ) today, for what it’s worth, my advice is: don’t play into Suella Braverman’s hands - don’t be provoked, stay calm, report trouble makers to the police

Rishi Sunak, the PM who claimed he wanted to protect women’s rights has rejected the idea that doctors have mandatory menopause training. What a hypocrite.

Tommy Robinson is a British Far Right racist & Islamaphobe . His lackeys are inspired by Nazi ideology - central to which was Jewish genocide. Yet, here is Robinson (real name: Stephen Yaxley-Lennon) attempting to hijack the March Against Antisemitism. The question is: Why?

What’s staggering is the deafening silence from other journalists - who know me well - who I’ve publicly and privately supported, now and in the past, not offering a word of support. That has fallen to the public who follow me on this platform. I am grateful to them. 2/

Interesting how quickly parts of the Westminster bubble has lost perspective, so just to be clear: It’s Diane Abbot MP who has “had a bad week” (she’s the victim of racism) not the Tory Party ( who excused it)

I know I’m new to this politics malarkey but I don’t get it — why is one man, Graham Brady, and not the British electorate deciding who gets to be this country’s Prime Minister?

Hi @British_Airways , as requested, I messaged privately on twitter but got an automated response - and no help. So let me try again, publicly, for the benefit of everyone else that’s stuck… You cancelled our Edinburgh to London flight with 2 hours notice. 1/

Still reeling somewhat from the idea that there are companies charging up to £40,000 (one even £80,000) to help with applications for New Year’s honours. I’m even more perturbed by the listeners who called me to say they think it’s perfectly alright 🤷🏽‍♀️

Who is this man David Atherton? I’ve never heard of him, yet he’s obsessed with me. He’s libelling me and attempting to send online thugs my way. He also claims working class people are the Far Right.

Sunak says “we are a country where we love our neighbours” After this week’s performance, I doubt that’s true, Rishi. You appear to love the neighbours that you think will vote for you… .. and weaponise falsehoods against those who you think won’t 🗳️

Thought experiment: Imagine the reaction in politics/media if a male Muslim Labour donor with an OBE used Hester’s words re: Diane Abbot MP “she should be shot” about Penny Mordaunt MP There would have (rightly) been outrage, accusations of extremism, an arrest, OBE stripped

Ms Badenoch, This is confusing; you say you “ welcome his apology”, but Frank Hester has not (as you now have) identified his comments as racist. He has apologised for being “rude”.

Hester’s 2019 comments, as reported, were racist. I welcome his apology. Abbott and I disagree on a lot. But the idea of linking criticism of her, to being a black woman is appalling. It’s never acceptable to conflate someone’s views with the colour of their skin…(1/2)
