A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK...
78% are murdered by a partner/ex
Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this
Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety
In fact, they voted against them...

A really fascinating article - for anyone interested in how misinformation and politics are related. Spoiler alert! “Misinformation and radical-right populism must hence be understood as inextricable and synergistic—two expressions of the same political moment.”
Important research investigating politics and misinformation: used 32M tweets from politicians in 26 countries, spanning 6 years and several election periods. Radical-right populism was the STRONGEST determinant of those who spread misinformation.

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP.
It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next.

Some great film directors came from acting, others from writing or photography. Lynch, like Kurosawa and Tarkovsky, came from painting, and in a way he was always first and foremost a visual artist. He will be missed
