No MP should be earning £380,000 on top of their parliamentary salary.

Farage manages it because he's turned "politainment" into a viable career. Like his US counterparts he's discovered that being a disruptor can make you very wealthy indeed.

🚨BOOM! Now over 90,000 signatures!

The Petition calling for by-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party is getting so close to the 100,000 needed.

Let’s keep going!

Why do we know now that the time and money spent in the future on an inquiry into ‘what went wrong with the choice of Palantir as the provider of this service’, will be so much greater than that spent on the selection process.

In Exeter hundreds turned out, rejecting Britain First & UKIPs devisive message. Even with their leader there not many joined them.

Minorities aren’t the cause of our country’s problems. Exeter’s not without problems, but it’s a great place to live & work & our diverse community lives well together

To all elected politicians everywhere:

Remove yourself from X.
Shut down X, xAI and Grok.
Issue arrest warrants or bans.

If you do not do this, you enable rampant paedophilia in your country, and the world.

If you cannot, you must explain to your electorate why not.
Do not use the "freedom" lie.

It seems our PM is both a coward and lacking in principles. It’s time he and his advisors stopped kowtowing to bullies. They won’t let him in the gang no matter what he does so he needs to find some new friends
Asked why Keir Starmer has not followed through on his commitment to ban all apps producing deep fakes, after X's Grok engine generated multiple AI-generated sexual images of children, his spokesman would not commit to either banning the app, or stopping posting there

AI is a technology developed and promoted by men with the emotional maturity of a 1st grader & who think it’s worth using excessive amounts of energy & pure water so that people can create stupid memes & men can create pornographic images of women who wouldn’t look at them twice.

Quick thread on the BBC and the political and societal significance of recent developments:

One of the main reasons the UK has historically been so much less polarised than the US, is that Britain has a shared source of information, consumed and trusted by most people regardless of their politics.

Trump’s speech and the actions of 6 January were broadcast widely at the time. We saw what happened live. A documentary after the fact should have been careful about editing but I simply don’t accept that it changed what we saw in the moment. This is an attempt to rewrite history

Why is conflict of interest such a hard concept for boards, civil servants and politicians to grasp? So many snouts in so many troughs and all beholden to each other. Lobbying is never impartial; what would be the point? It’s out of reach of us the Electorate, so our views and interests don’t count

I see the US VP is again trying to normalise extremely offensive discourse using a ludicrous argument. Is he going to claim next that beating up LGBTQ+ people is ok because “that’s what kids do?” If you’re old enough to run a political group you’re old enough to take responsibility for your words

I find it obscene that a man who is already massively wealthy wants damages for his own theoretical loss which would have to be funded by the taxpayer. Our loss to line his pockets. And he has the brass neck to use EU law to do it when he helped fund Brexit. Rapacious capitalism: no irony only greed
