In the 1930s Mosley and his rank and file BUF were careful not to outwardly portray themselves as racists.

They weren't antisemitic... far from it... they were just concerned about "bad principles" and "international bankers" and the influx of foreigners

Everyone knew what they meant.

What would Orwell think about a huge face on a gigantic screen telling a crowd of people they should wage war on foreigners and dissidents? No way of knowing, I guess.
When speaking to Tommy Robinson at the far right demonstration in London today, Elon Musk wore a t-shirt saying "What would Orwell think?"

So let's dive in - what would George Orwell think about Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk? 🧵

It’s time to invest in communities and social homes, not private pockets.

The government is handing money to companies that make huge profits from housing people seeking safety in appalling conditions.

But this could be used to fund a joined-up, local approach to housing people seeking safety.

Note the clarity of language in this reporting from Metro, a free UK tabloid. Britain's national broadcaster is institutionally incapable of doing this.

I’m glad to see this article but it’s after 24 hours of unchallenged corporate guff dominating the news cycle. Tony Blair is a tech lobbyist who is literally writing naive, venal & dangerous policy for Starmer’s government. Call it out.

Incredible. The Trump administration calculated "tariff rates" by taking the US trade deficit with the respective country and dividing it by the country's exports to the US. And then the tariff rate of the US is often just set by cutting that made-up "tariff rate" in half.

Yesterday: Musk insulted the Foreign Minister of an ally saying "be quiet, small man."
Today he is calling a US Senator a "traitor."
This is uncharted waters. Musk is acting as a representative of the US government overseas, and de facto Prime Minister at home. Huge power w no accountability
“You are a traitor.”

An absurd and insulting thing to say to anyone who posts what Senator Kelly did.

And even more insulting since he served as a U.S. Navy captain and a NASA astronaut.

Kelly was a combat pilot and flew 39 combat missions during Operation Desert Storm in the Gulf War.

Like many women fleeing war and torture, Zoya & Sofya came to the UK as refugees.

But after fleeing their home countries, like many others, the UK's hostile policies have meant their problems haven't ended.

Show solidarity this International Women's Day - watch their message to UK leaders now.

Now we have Conservative MP’s joining Nigel Farage claiming Brexit allowed the UK to roll out the covid vaccine first

As I explain in this report, the claim is complete boll****
If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it

We cannot allow them to rewrite history.

If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely

NO Nigel Farage - the vaccine rollout was not helped by Brexit
