Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

Amid all the stuff about โ€˜dangerous Londonโ€™ and โ€˜broken Britainโ€™, new figures show the homicide rate in London is at a 10-year low. Killings dropped by 26% over the last year, from 78 to 58. No one under 25 was murdered during the school summer holidays.

A year after racist riots erupted across England and Northern Ireland following the murder of Bebe King (aged 6), Elsie Dot Stancombe (aged 7) and Alice da Silva Aguiar (aged 9) in Southport, Amnesty International has found that social media platform X played a central role in the spread of false narratives and content which incited violence against Muslim and migrant communities. 

Our analysis of Xโ€™s open-source code reveals that the platformโ€™s content ranking algorithms prioritise the type of content that can spread misinformation and hate, with deeply inadequate safeguards to prevent human rights abuses.

โ€œOur research demonstrates that these design choices significantly exacerbated human rights risks for racialised communities in the wake of the Southport riotsโ€“ and continues to present a serious human rights risk today,โ€ said Pat de Brรบn, Amnesty Internationalโ€™s Head of Big Tech Accountability.

Islamophobic and xenophobic rhetoric on X after Southport Attack

Within hours of the murder of the three young girls and attempted murder of ten others by 17-year-old Axel Rudakubana, incendiary posts by far-right influencers went viral on X. Within 24 hours, posts falsely claiming the attacker was Muslim, a refugee and/or a migrant who had arrived by boat reached an estimated 27 million impressions.

Our analysis of the recommender system and the removal of safeguards at X demonstrate that it is set up to amplify this type of harmful content and that there are few safeguards to prevent it. The net result was a staggering amplification of hate speech and anti-migrant sentiment. Andrew Tate, a notorious online influencer, posted a video falsely claiming the attacker was an โ€œundocumented migrantโ€ who โ€œarrived on a boatโ€ whilst Elon Musk claimed that โ€œcivil war is inevitableโ€. 

Stephen Yaxley-Lennonโ€™s (also known as Tommy Robinsonโ€™s) posts on X, including claims such as there being โ€œmore evidence to suggest Islam is a mental health issue rather than a religion of peaceโ€โ€ฆ

New research out today: Amnesty International has found that X/Twitter played a central role in the spread of false narratives and content which incited violence against Muslim and migrant communities in the UK last summer

From new club for people of Brighton in 1901 to 2025 Mitoma Mania The Albion have been on quote the journey since being founded in 1901 as a new club for the people of Brighton & Hove to support

Prime Minister Farage? Heโ€™s serious about that โ€“ itโ€™s time the country was too | Gaby Hinsliff His tax-and-spending maths may be bonkers, but while Labour dithers, the Reform leader knows just what his voters want, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

โ— "Since he makes zero pretence of professionalism, itโ€™s somehow less expected of him, enabling him to slip past the standards applied to others."

Trump just nominated Paul Ingrassia to run the Office of Special Counsel. Ingrassia is a former far-right podcast host and election denier who once shared an article calling for โ€œmartial lawโ€ to keep Donald Trump in office following his loss in the 2020 election. He's 29.

Andrew Tate has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm.
Nigel Farage described him as "an important voice for young men". That tells you all you need to know about Farage's moral compass.

Trump just pardoned a corrupt sheriff who was found guilty of taking bribes in exchange for law endorsement badges.

Those who bought the badges used them to drive in emergency lanes, bypass TSA lines, and for other favors.
