Elon Musk's UK attacks: 'He doesn't give a damn about grooming victims' Elon Musk has turned his attention to UK politics, calling for the release of Tommy Robinson from prison, and the jailing of Keir Starmer, and is sharing disinformation about UK child sex abuse.

'Elon Musk has been radicalised, now he's trying to radicalise British people too".

Why the Tesla billionaire's attacks on UK politics have nothing to do with free speech

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says public want to leave the ECHR - let’s put the record straight
YouTube video by Peter Stefanovic Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says public want to leave the ECHR - let’s put the record straight

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says

“We need to leave the ECHR so we can deport people that come illegally & take back control of our borders & that’s what the public wants”

Share if you disagree with his populist boll**** the UK should join Russia & Belarus outside the ECHR

Worrying from the outside - the rule of law seems no longer to apply. Trump is above the law. He wouldn’t be in the UK. A famous judge here once said “Be you ever so high, the law is above you.” (Lord Denning, British Appeal Court Judge).

@mrjamesob.bsky.social good to see you on here - I follow you. I hope unlike ‘X’ you feel able to read replies on here. I hope it’s more tolerant and democratic than that caustic, toxic medium has become!

Do you ever get the feeling the world’s gone crazy? With this in mind, I play the Flintstones theme in the style of the Russian classics.
