Who funds the Free Speech Union?
Toby Young’s outfit went to court to hide its donors. Today we reveal that funders include US anti-abortion groups, Brexit politicians and Tufton Street insiders.

The informal economy where undocumented migrants & asylum seekers find work despite idiotic restrictions is larger in France than the UK.
It is larger in every other European country that also have ID than the UK.
The idea you can work more easily in the UK is a lie. #r4today

Another important read. The official response to Renee Good's shooting (lies and calling her a communist agitator who deserved to die) is as frightening as the killing itself.

Meanwhile near where they killed Renee Good ICE was terrorizing a high school — and now Minneapolis has canceled school for the week.
None of this is about safety. A lawless regime with no guardrails.

I remember being taught, many years ago, that the system of checks and balances in the US political system would prevent an abuse of power and ensure dictatorship could not occur. I sleep much better at night knowing this🤦♂️
