If someone had told me a year ago, that this could happen in the UK I wouldn't have believed it.

Now it's all happening very fast. Even if you consider Cummings as the 'career psychopath' he always was, this is a dangerous new level.
Dominic Cummings has this racialised take on David Lammy

There is an increasingly prevalent kneejerk online rightwing trait to call the presence of any black or Asian person a diversity hire

Somehow made it through the crime-ridden hellscape of London into work yet again. Here's today's column: www.thetimes.com/article/3130...
Nigel Farage’s hellscape is not the Britain we know
Some specific crimes are on the rise but West End no-go zones exist only in the fantasies of spokespeople for Reform

NEW: Incredible scenes in Washington DC now.

Tens of thousands on the National Mall for the #HandsOff protest against Trump & Musk.

There must be over a million people protesting across every US state today.

This is big. Far-right troll site Guido Fawkes has always claimed it isn't subject to UK libel law as it's officially offshore.

Today it conceded that it defamed Dale Vince, making clear it it's subject to UK law. No more dodging scrutiny. Staines will have to play by the rules like the rest of us.

There won’t be another election in the US. Who didn’t believe that a week ago, should do it now.
Trump again raises idea of running for an unconstitutional third term. The suggestion followed a stretch of days in which Trump referred to himself as a king and quoted a dictator in suggesting that he was immune from following laws www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I do think the quickest way to deal with Musk is for every paper to do variants of this until Trump cracks.
Donald Trump is going to HATE the new cover of TIME magazine

Car crash briefing with Kemi Badenoch spokesman in which he

- Couldn't say if she'd ever raised grooming inside govt (having never mentioned it in the House)
- Admitted she hasn't spoken to any survivors
- Refused to condemn Elon Musk for attacks on Jess Phillips
and said she's still a "fan" of his

Musk has now threatened the leaders of Canada,Brazil, Germany. X helped create a riot in the UK. Now it seems he doesn't want the UK to make its own legal decisions. Time to act?
"He asked why British far-right figurehead Tommy Robinson had been imprisoned at all. Musk also approvingly shared Robinson’s documentary to his more than 200 million followers"

Musk's interventions should be taken seriously. The ideological leanings of oligarchical media barons can affect us all.
Elon Musk brands UK a ‘tyrannical police state’
X owner shares a petition demanding a UK general election and boosts a far-right activist.

Let’s all take a moment to congratulate Daniel ‘unelected bureaucrat’ Hannan for this masterclass in hypocrisy and abuse of power.
Someone sitting in the House of Lords (however dubiously) should *not* be signing this idiotic petition. But good to have his total lack of integrity confirmed. Again.

It's been snowing in the UK and the road gritters are out in force, begging the question:
Have you ever wondered where that grit actually COMES from?
The answer is more magical, beautiful and fascinating than you probably realised.
