We need to look at the unmitigated mess and disaster that is the US and how disgusting the Trump administration is acting and want to distance ourselves from acting that way as humanly possible.

Politics should be a calling to change the country for the better, not a free ride. Or a power trip.

Hold any person in either house to the same standard as Police, an independent body overseeing complaints.

We should not be in a world where politicians, who set laws, budgets, etc are not held to the absolute highest standard of all people.

Standards including respect and dignity in office.

Abolish the House of Lords and introduce an elected house of judges/magistrates/KCs, who can sit for no more than ten years before being rotated out.
Money provided is only for work done - voting/speaking/whatever, rather than "turning up" to get £361 a day as is currently "acceptable".

Any instance of corruption, malfeasance, being paid by outside bodies/interests (esp. to the extent of taking money to advertise) should preclude from ever running again.

No foreign investment in political parties and all party income has to be vetted to ensure no outside influence.

It's almost like the lasting effects of the calamitous austerity policy - which the Lib Dems had a hand in the last time they were in power - are still being felt, isn't it?

and straight to a new post to bury the previous. Guess the replies to the last one calling for you to leave twitter or face looking like a hypocrite didn't go the way you wanted?

Why are you still on twitter? If you have anything about you, other than posting safe, trite platitudes, you should be raising a point in Westminster for all political parties in the UK to boycott twitter and Musk's propaganda machine.

Go on. I dare you.

It's all there and plain as day. We need to do something IMMEDIATELY about the rampant march of fascism, or we end up in the same state as the US.

If you didn't leave when Musk bought it, or let Nazis back on the platform, or suspending journalist accounts, or repurposing the verification as a subscription model, or mass layoffs of workers, or allowing mis/disinformation to run rampant, or the increase in hate speech, or deepfake pics, or...

Why have you not brought up Rep. Luna's inflammatory remarks on twitter, threatening to sanction Starmer and the UK for considering banning twitter for allowing AI edits of women and children? This needs discussed immediately and our "relationship" with this adversarial rogue nation reconsidered.

We had 14 years of Conservatives over here, presiding over some of the worst ideas in modern memory (austerity and brexit) and people don't just want to go back to that, they want worse. I hate how so many stupid people are susceptible to propaganda, foreign interference and blatant lies.

Annoying that they did this after every winter sale has finished.

Can things just go back in time to 2000, please? I've had enough of all this bullshit now. Guess I'll be sticking with R13 for a while.

Don't be distracted.

The odious sack of garbage needs to be investigated into his own links with Russia. How on Earth the UK (and the West as a whole) hasn't put serious sanctions onto Russia for their overt attempts to destabilise democracy in the West is genuinely baffling. As politicians, you should all be doing more

Too little, too late, I fear. There needs to be a serious, concerted effort to properly police social media (and trolls, bad actors, bots, etc. that inhabit it) but without serious ramifications to the platforms, they will continue to allow nearly anything in the pursuit of more engagement.
