Opinion | This is an industry of grievance and division, a machine designed to spread hate, which now operates across the British right – from respectable print outlets to wild-eyed online fascists. Don’t let them fool you

OMG Alex! Have fond, faint memories of Nana’s BBC.
This shows what an amazing, emotional talent she is.
I love it.
Thanks for sharing and setting me off on a trip to find more. X

Since I seem to have inadvertently sent my entire timeline on a Nana-Trip today, have a little listen to one my favourite things from her BBC programme in the 70s. xx

People live in fear every day, and that is something we should all be aware of, and fight to change. Anti-Semitism is rising, so is Islamophobia, racial hate and more. Condemn those who attack others, do so vocally and without bias. Don't use them to stoke more hate though. That's what feeds them.

If this is true, then ‘fucking amazing’.
But also ‘science… what do they know?’ Can we ask Faridge?

The most shameful bit…

Trump’s inner circle knows he’s unfit for office & a national embarrassment

But they’re too compromised, power-hungry, cruel or corrupted to call it out

They’ve let America be dragged, on an incalculable scale, because of their own cowardice & greed.

Dear friends and followers. I know I’ve been pretty absent on social media. There’s a good reason I promise. I’ve been involved with such a high profile project I’ve not been able to share. But I feel I’ve neglected you. You’ve always been so good to me. I’ll start drip feeding😜

Donald Trump deployed more than 700 active U.S. Marines — men and women trained in foreign combat, not domestic law enforcement.

We honor their service and bravery. But we do not want our streets militarized by our own Armed Forces. Not in L.A. Not in California. Not anywhere.

UCL's Andrea Sella to return his 2014 Michael Faraday prize to the Royal Society over its continued refusal to censure Elon Musk. Sella won the award as 'an exemplary science communicator' (in the words of the RS's spokesperson). Its return too is exemplary science communication.

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear:
The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here.

Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead.

This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.
