โ˜€๏ธSunshine really is the best disinfectant.

For too long royal FOI exemptions have allowed royal power to act in the shadows, and conceal important truths from MPs, the press, and the public.

They must be removed to tackle this systemic corruption.

Authoritarianism is rising because our democracy was failing before Trump.

When pro-democracy forces take back power, we canโ€™t just restore the status quo. We need to change a political system that gives oligarchs a veto over working people.

We need a new democracy.

Hereโ€™s What a Google Subpoena Response Looks Like, Courtesy of the Epstein Files The US Justice Department disclosures give fresh clues about how tech companies handle government inquiries about your data.

NEW: One aspect of the Epstein Files I find fascinating is that they're a rare window into the inner-workings of a federal investigation, including how tech companies respond to government requests for information. We looked at some Google-related ones: www.wired.com/story/heres-...

Are we safe from enemies here at home? Is a hostile foreign government encouraging British citizens to act illegally against our national interest?

US strategy now includes bolstering โ€œpatrioticโ€ movements in Europe. But when self-declared nationalists assist a foreign power to bypass UK domestic law, where does solidarity end and collusion begin?

How rightwing rhetoric has risen sharply in the UK parliament โ€“ an exclusive visual analysis In the past five years, MPsโ€™ attitudes in the House of Commons towards immigration have swung harder to the right than at almost any other time in the last century

The Guardian/UCL have conducted an in-depth study of all of the immigration debates in parliament over a century. It shows sentiment more mixed, more negative today than in the past. (Though also that parliamentary sentiment historically is more pro than con)

What Elon Has Done Elon Musk's destruction of USAID has faded from public consciousness in America, despite leaving death and destruction in its wake.

"the largest act of mass murder of this decade, and of this century so far, was not perpetrated by militaries or militias, but by the world's richest man in Washington D.C.'s Eisenhower Executive Office Building."
