Some thoughts on the "Lexodus" from Twitter to Mastodon And why Mastodon is inherently more attractive to any liberal and how it is geared for constructive exchanges davidallengreen.com/2022/11/…

As with Boris Johnson so with Rishi Sunak. You might conclude they don't really care whether their colleagues are guilty of wrong-doing. They only care whether the wrong-doing gets exposed.

It's been a week since a far-right terrorist attacked a migrant centre. Police confirmed that it is an act of terrorism. Suella Braverman has not condemned the attack. I can't remember a previous time when a Home Secretary has failed to condemn a terrorist attack on UK soil.

417 years ago today a gang led by Robert Catesby and including Guy Fawkes attempted to destroy parliament. In their memory the Conservative Party now attempt the same most weeks. #BonfireNight

β€˜The State can’t fix all your problems’ Sunak 42bn - Brexit divorce bill 9bn - lost to Covid fraud 32bn - lost taxes due to Brexit trade hit 37bn - track and trace 40-50bn - cost of Truss lunacy The state IS the problem. We pay for Tory ineptitude every day.

Over Β£11m going into the Sunak household this year alone (they're married, what's his is hers and vice versa) from a company with offices in Russia. I would say our PM is not quite leading by example at the very least.

From today's @FT "England’s rivers pay the price for hollowed-out Environment Agency". Personally I would have added the words "and government incompetence". ft.com/content/396cdde1-d9f6…

You have to think @FraserNelson wondered, as this image was commissioned and published, whether it crossed the line into criminal conduct. But we don't really apply the law any more, do we, against those who are in or adjacent to power? They get to play by their own set of rules.

The truth about Brexit is the public just don't want it any more. There has been a surge in support for rejoining the EU over the past year and yet almost nobody in Westminster seems willing to talk about it. bylinetimes.com/2022/11/02/b…

We're seeing more and more UK facing astro-turfed websites on US culture war issues like race and gender. We're using the law to unmask them - so we can see whose money is poisoning our politics. And we're going to share a toolkit... goodlawproject.org/news/astr…

"When immigrants started coming to Scarfolk in the mid-1970s, many local criminals worried that foreign offenders would threaten their livelihoods. They formed an organisation called the Campaign for Real British Crime (CRBC), which fought for the rights of UK born criminals"

NEW: a column in the Times argues that the only way to tackle obesity is through fat shaming (yes, you read that right). It’s an astonishing argument to make, and unsurprisingly it falls to pieces under scrutiny. Let’s take a look, and see if we can do better:

It needed a strong start, to be seen as a robust, independent, credible regulator yet our new @OfficeforEP is failing already. Today gov will break the law, a law it passed less than 1 year ago. The 7th time in 2 years. And the OEP does what exactly? theoep.org.uk/sites/default/…
