Lutfur Rahman has decided to cut down the trees and tear out the cycle lanes in this photo and replace it with thousands of cars despite repeated objections from residents and stakeholders. Support our crowdfunder to challenge this decision. crowdjustice.com/case/save-o…

Lutfur Rahman has taken the most extreme, undemocratic and dangerous decision available to him this evening. He has decided to rip out all the walking and cycling infrastructure in Bethnal Green. This is not the end. We know we have public support for our cause and the overwhelming evidence too. With the advice of our lawyers, we will monitor the legality of what the council has done. Our Crowd Justice page is open for donations. The more we receive, the more ready we are to act as necessary to protect our safer streets. crowdjustice.com/case/save-o…

She gets worse and worse.
What Suella Braverman said about grooming gangs and race, versus what the Home Office's own investigation into this actually found.

Braverman has one hand in the till, one hand pointing at refugees…
#KayBurley - Suella Braverman has claimed £25,000 for her London home, while living rent free with her parents... what would you say about that? Robert Buckland(Tory MP) - I don't know the facts... but MPs should try & keep costs as low as possible. #BBCBreakfast

These ERG types need to be slapped down like this every time. The people who gave us the problem are not the ones to resolve it.

Interesting to watch this back. In 2021, Gary Lineker talked to me on The Media Show about tweeting. BBC DG Tim Davie had never called him to say, 'you can't tweet about that', he said. And added: 'I don't think they could do that anyway. I mean, I'm my own person.'

It’s literally a screenshot of The Times
Getting There. You won't see this in the MSM. 👇👇
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This tweet claims that the MSM has not covered the story in the image. However, the source of the headline in the image is The Times, which is the third most popular newspaper in the UK.¹ 1. yougov.co.uk/topics/enterta… Furthermore, other mainstream outlets have covered the story, including: bbc.co.uk/news/business-… theguardian.com/business/2023/… telegraph.co.uk/business/2023/… ft.com/content/324874… cnbc.com/2023/03/10/uk-…

I once revealed in @thetimes how John Humphrys made money from speeches slagging off the then Labour government. The Tories/Daily Mail squealed about his freedom so he kept his job interviewing politicians on @BBCr4today, unlike @GaryLineker who presents football on @BBCMOTD.

Everybody knows what Match of the Day means to me, but I’ve told the BBC I won’t be doing it tomorrow. Solidarity.

Every word of this. And the look on Ken Clarke’s face tells me he agrees but is still Tory enough not to say so.
Somebody give this man a Blue Peter badge. 🙌👏

9/ It is easier & more profitable for Moroccan farmers to sell produce to EU-wide wholesalers, rather than small, unprofitable UK export options UKGov put us in a position where UK food security is at risk, by creating high-risk dependencies on single non-EU trade partners /end

Solidarity to all the striking workers today. ✊🏼 Scale of the strikes are a sign of the extent of poor pay and conditions across public services for years. Only solution is for government to step up and act - ongoing intransigence will backfire for them at the ballot box.

Food and non-alcoholic drink prices rose 16.9% in year to Dec 2022, up (again) from 16.5% in November. Highest food inflation since 1977, says @ONS. Food inflation has risen every month since July 2021, long before Putin invaded Ukraine.

What an utter horror. If you can’t even hear the cries from history, what chance do you have of building a nation based on decency and humanity for the future

Here is the full unedited exchange between Joan Salter, a holocaust survivor, and @SuellaBraverman, in which Ms Salter asks the home sec not to use words like “swarm” and “invasion” when talking about asylum seekers. Home sec explains her language choice m.youtube.com/watch?v=mO5bSZ…

Please read; the most important piece I've written. Mass poisoning has suddenly killed off most sea life for 30 miles by the Tees. The govt claims it's natural; ind scientists warn it's manmade. The govt is desperate not to inquire too deeply as its freeport policy is at stake.
