NEW: AP reports all 14 men have now been deported to their home countries by Ghana, in direct violation of international law. A court in the US determined each person would be persecuted or tortured in their home countries. We sent them to Ghana, which quickly deported them to their home countries.

If you want to know about the state of British media, these 'formidable obstacles' include assault of a police officer, ABH, football hooliganism, entering the US on a false passport, mortgage fraud, stalking, endangering a grooming trial, defaming a 15 year old refugee and a lifetime of racism.

There's no excuse of ignorance any more. Every single person on that fascist march knew who Tommy Robinson was and every single one of them knew why they were there.

This isn't Brexit. People weren't conned. They willingly went out to join in, led by a five times jailed thug. Stop making excuses.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class.

This is Kirk's legacy.

You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

I cited actual Kirk quotes where he calls Black women less intelligent, demonizes me for being Muslim, & dehumanizes LGBTQ peopleβ€”& his supporters are upset at me for β€œspeaking evil of the dead.”

If quoting him is β€œspeaking evil” maybe ask yourself why you followed someone who believed evil things.

once again it is not fucking normal to lower flags in oregon for random member of the opposing political party who was born in illinois, lived in arizona, and died in utah. this is not a normal thing they're extending to a white supremacist, it's a special thing they're doing for a white supremacist

Sorry am I losing my fucking mind??

@bbc5live.bsky.social currently reporting Charlie Kirk as a β€œfree speech advocate who helped a generation of students with their debating skills”???

He was a racist conspiracy theorist who advocated violence against women and transgender people. He was a bum.

Three HBCUs have had to lock down their campuses today.

What about THIS political violence?

Where's the condemnation from the right and from the media?

Yes, welcome to Cork, Kerri @kerriandrewsuk.bsky.social‬ (There's scope for some geographical confusion there!)

And if you haven't yet met Ellen Dillon, @drnollid.bsky.social, β€ͺ you should do so asap . . .

Florida Reporter Suspended After Texting MAGA Congressman to Ask If He Still Supports Campus Carry After Kirk Shooting A reporter with a popular Florida political website was suspended after angering a Republican congressman with a question he texted in the wake of Charlie Kirk being shot.

You’re just not allowed to do journalism if it displeases MAGA

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?

Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or β€œcontinue his work.”

β€œHe has been killed for saying things that used to be simple common sense. He has been killed because he had the courage to stand up publicly for reasonable opinions held by millions and millions of ordinary people both in the US and Britain.”

Any updates on the investigation into the theft and self-enrichment committed by Michelle Mone during the covid pandemic? Or Michael Gove's VIP procurement contract list? Test & Trace?
Surely there'll be some arrests soon?

E.J Taylor Memorial My interest in dollmaking began with my introduction to folk dolls as a child. I began making dolls with baling wire, cotton, scraps from my mother’s quilting basket.

I find his work both beautiful and unsettling.
