Ok President Trump, if you sue the BBC for $1bn for spreading lies, Iโ€™ll sue you for the same amount. I reckon Planet Earth would crowdfund that. Then Iโ€™ll buy Mar A Largo, turn it into a climate change research centre, free Melania, and put a 1000% tariff on orange face paint.

The CURRENT sitting MP for Clacton earns ยฃ511,000 as a presenter for GB News and took ยฃ281,000 as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion.

So maybe sit this one out, you rancid herring.

Mick Waddington is Reform UK's candidate in the Barnoldswick, Pendle by-election.

He's "campaiging to protect Pendle's care homes".

No one seems to have told him that Lancashireโ€™s Reform-run council plans to close their care homes and day centres:

Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how

Elon Musk's influence on British politics via X is dangerous.

Research shows:

X's algorithm amplifies right-wing and extreme content.

Right-wing voices are dominating, and the algorithm is pushing posts to new users, no matter their political views.

Dawn Butler MP: Why Sarah Pochinโ€™s apology doesnโ€™t cut it They were not, as she claims, โ€œphrased poorly.โ€ They were racist.

I called out racist comments in Parliament because silence lets hate grow.

You can be Black and Brown and British!

Reform must take responsibility. Words, and accountability, matter.

Lancashire's Reform-run council plans to close care homes and day centres Questions about potential conflict of interest as council's cabinet member for social care owns private care company

Reform UK's 'brilliant' cost-saving strategy? Closing care homes.

One Reform voter says it best: โ€œIf there are parents who have paid into the system all their lives, worked hard for this country, if theyโ€™re โ€˜wasteโ€™, then we might as well just give up.โ€

Implementing Brexit,

Cutting local Govt funding by 40%,
Running down public services
And increasing levels of poverty.

A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: 
Using Generative AI?
Youโ€™re prompting with Hitler!
GenAI is a Fascist Project!
Try using your brain instead
Donโ€™t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaireโ€™s control
