"Farage and Badenoch are free to offer up an explanation as to why Connolly should be able to incite violence without consequence, while el-Fattah should face extrajudicial punishment for it. Until they do so, there is an all too obvious one: they are openly pandering to racists."
Calls to remove el-Fattah’s UK citizenship are dictatorial
Yes his tweets were disgusting, possibly criminal, yet it should not be possible for politicians to revoke someone’s national identity just because they dislike their views

Make no mistake. Every politician, pundit & online grifter amplifying Musk's dangerous lies will be aware of this intervention by now. Make no mistake, they are choosing to mislead the public & politicise the suffering of victims in the shameful pursuit of political advantage, attention & clicks.

This is an astonishingly ill-informed and amoral assessment for the political editor of the BBC to have reached, about someone spreading extremist conspiracy theories and using them to whip up hatred against elected politicians. I'd say I'm surprised, but sadly I'm not.
Staggeringly generous summary by Chris Mason just now: "Elon Musk no doubt has transformed the volume of this conversation, ensuring that the government was confronted with a reality it couldn't sidestep".
