A BBC reporter ends his piece about the China spy trial collapse with the words "this story won't go away"
In contrast, the BBC newshounds have lost their sense of smell about Nathan Gill accepting Russian bribes.

we had 18 public health managers, one for every neighborhood in Liverpool, by 2013, there were 4, 1 4 south 1 4 central and 1 4 north, by 2017 there were only 2 and 2019 only 1. Labour is getting health back into communities again which I think is a good solution. have u read their 10 year plan?

you may be right on most of your analysis. The only defence I can give you on NHS, immigration is Tories made it so bad that it could not have changed or improved overnight.
The economy will get worse basically because of Trump tariffs

BBC News explain that because of Brexit, Brits will be photographed and have their fingerprints taken when going into the EU, as the UK now is a third country

BBC News forget to explain that the UK helped create these rules when we were part of the EU because we wanted stronger border control

The real issue is not to demonstrate the obvious, we all know he is not that bright, but the issue that concerns most is that his post still got over 19k likes.

well, That is disgusting and I am against that. I honestly didn't know that. Thanks for educating me.

Mo T 🌹 @mot62.bsky.social · 21h

I don't agree with his post, his views and his defence

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt:

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

In last two weeks I have been verbally abused because I disagreed with their narratives. on both occasions, it was not from bot account or far right but from people from left who I actually agree more than 90% of their views. the social media has made people less civil and nastier.

My retired police officer replied:
" I would say that incitement is aggravating factor therefore a hate crime"
so it seems he agrees with you and I was wrong

the other day another account call me all sort of names instead of arguning his case and giving me reason why he disagree with me. I pointed that to him, he said I am socially shaming you. ironic that he thought he was socially shaming by insulting me i

I received some abuse today on this, because I disagree with some of stuff they said. I think it is good to disagree and argue, nothing changes if we are accepting everything and agree with each other however the level of anger and abuse is not on. calling me names would not make me change my mind

Mo T 🌹 @mot62.bsky.social · 22h

sorry i was in middle of argument with many that if we cancelled people for what they say is homophobic, transphobic or racist, then the danger would be once far right gain power they will do same and accuse left of double standards

I am wating for my friend who is retired police officer expert on hate crime to come back to me.
The problem with accusing him of inciting violence is his defence and lack of link from his post to violence. He said he was joking and the attack on Trans didnt increase because of my post.

These 2 speeches, which, as Nick points out, on the same day, precede what Gill has pled guilty to by 4 years, are more damning for Farage as they also precede Brexit.

All European secret services would have been alarmed by this & would/should have been investigating.

Spain's economy has received recent credit rating upgrades from all major agencies, with its long-term sovereign ratings at A+ all with stable outlooks. These upgrades reflect strong economic growth, driven by factors like immigration and investment, and a strengthening external balance sheet.

In the UK we have Keir -island of strangers- Starmer, whose government is driving right wing anti immigrant and asylum seeker policies

In Spain, Pedro Sánchez is not only celebrating diversity, they're embracing and speaking positively about immigrants

I am actually relaxed after being called all sort of names.

I have already accepted I was wrong on that

Mo T 🌹 @mot62.bsky.social · 23h

Thanks for that clarification. I based that presumption on previous referendum.
I was wrong.
I guess Labour has not yet got the full support of unions and MPs to introduce PR. again I may be wrong. All I know is I am for it

over exaggerate their popularity. which is good because people will find out about their cuts ot benefits, tax cuts for rich and unhuman immigration laws they proposing
The main problem is social media as they really impact how people see reality

Mo T 🌹 @mot62.bsky.social · 23h

If Labour delivers on cost of living and NHS and be openly more positive on Immigration and EU, then they have a chance. I fear the world financial crisis coming in next 12 months which make the economy situation worse.
Reform has so far not got over 28% in polls and media are working hard...
