In all the years I've been campaigning, this is the first where I've feared retaliation - but even X is not above the law. That's why we've referred X to Ofcom for horrific posts that, having taken legal advice, we believe are illegal under the Online Safety Act. goodlaw.social/wk2q

In case you missed this, the BBC edited a historian's speech about Trump to remove the claim that he's "the most openly corrupt president in US history." This came after Trump had threatened a $1 billion lawsuit.

Elite capitulation continues.

Read all about it here:

Trump Angrily Threatened to Sue BBC. Then Things Took a Darker Turn.
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

What was the rest of the answer tho? Proper investigation or not? Not just into Reform, but Brexit party/UKIP, referendum, Conservative Friends of Russia, House Of Lords deals, etc.

Is there any reason why Gill's profile still features Nigel "I've-distanced-myself-from-this-how-very-dare-you?!" Farage front and centre?

Just asking questions, of course.

So, the son of an elderly woman, in a Lancashire council funded care home, threatens to leave the party, if the Reform council continue with their plans to sell off five residential care homes, to save money. Oh, the irony!
