Twelve meetings secretly filmed by ITV News between October 2024 and February 2025 show a change in language from offensive "jokes" about Adolf Hitler to discussions about the use of weapons, and open declarations about "taking power whenever the opportunity arises"

Bored of all the #trump nonsense. Tomorrow we're meeting with some of the pioneers who fought to overturn the racist bar on hiring black and asian workers on the buses in Bristol in 1963 helping to pave the way for the 1965 race relations act. #joinaunion #unite

Can Ed Davey end a "conspiracy of silence" about the reality of Brexit? Liberal Democratsโ€™ leader Ed Davey has called for a new customs union deal with the EU, saying it would โ€œturbochargeโ€ the economy, and give the UK more leverage when dealing with President Trump.

"To deal with Trump, the UK has to show it's stronger and has alternatives."

Ed Davey explains why he's calling for the UK to establish a new customs union with the EU

'How's that on a scale of medieval misogyny?'

How Elon Musk seized on baseless memo claim to create wave of misinformation The X owner shared false claims that a Home Office memo urged police not to intervene in child grooming cases.

A useful article by the BBC on Elon Musk and his interventions on child sexual abuse. Produced by the Verify, rather than the news arm, and currently situated fairly low down on the BBC News site... A report like this should be given prominence, considering how Musk's claims led the UK's news agenda

Because every smart right winger in the world knows that neoliberal economics donโ€™t win elections.

Their ultimate aim is corporate welfare for big business, tax cuts for the rich, and the crushing of unionists and protestors.

But they canโ€™t say that out loud.

The only way the right can win state power is to acknowledge the deep suffering that has been created by decades of rising inequality, and blame this suffering on some โ€˜otherโ€™ - migrants, criminals, deviants etc.

That othering is, of course, the prerequisite for fascism.

"Musk and the concept of truth aren't very familiar with each other."

Andrew Norfolk denounces Musk for treating UK events as his 'plaything,' reminding people how Tommy Robinson nearly wrecked a grooming gang trial.

If Labour want to get their message across on their terms, then why are they neglecting YouTube, one of the biggest, and not even having a coherent strategy on the others?

Keir Starmer must slap Elon Musk down - before someone gets killed This deranged, disgusting attack on Jess Phillips deserves a public rebuke, not just behind-the-scenes diplomacy

"It cannot be allowed to stand. Behind-the-scenes diplomacy that will no doubt be underway to get Trump to yank the choke chain on Musk is not enough."

Surely this is actionable?

I think it's fine to have them on, I think lewis did a pretty decent job of exposing tices one sided "Muslim only" spectacles. To me they are laying the ground for another pogrom/race riot ala post southport. Hence use of "white girls" a few times by tice
