What desperate/ false claims did the Greens make? I wasn’t aware of any. In my patch on the day.

No . And we need to get to the bottom of it. I should have been a bit more careful before accusing Labour

Yes. Important to get to the bottom of where this came from.

Agreed. It’s desperate and disgusting from labour . Also this from them today.

So many Greens on the ground today. Quite a bit of Reform too. Not much Labour - except this disgraceful desperate message.

We seem to be nearing the heart of the story, and a lot will depend on the nerve of the journalists--NPR, the NYT, etc--to stay on this story relentlessly. Will they give it the same kind of coverage they gave Biden's age--i.e., full bore, around the clock, 50 opeds?

Just re-reading bits of Peter Oborne's 2005 excellent book 'The Rise of Political Lying'. Back then he called out so many examples of Peter Mandleson's clear cut lies. Now wee see the concequence of tolerating this. Can we, as a society, learn the lesson in time? (btw pls come to BlueSky Peter)

What do you feel is the biggest threat to our national security right now?

The UK Joint Intelligence Committee has released its report on the threat of biodiversity and ecological collapse on national security.

Its a chilling read: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/696e0e...

Anyone up for "an open, intelligent conversation about how political deception has shaped our democracy... and what we can do to restore honesty, #accountability and #trust"? @mikebernerslee.bsky.social and Jennifer Nadel will be at The North Wall Oxford Jan 27 & the Kenton Theatre, Henley, Jan 28

The fossil fuel industry is waging an information war, and they're winning. We desperately need influential media voices like @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social & @rory-stewart.bsky.social to give time to trusted independent experts like Professor @mikebernerslee.bsky.social. 🙏

How is political deception degrading democracy & what can you do about it?

Join @mikebernerslee.bsky.social @jennifernadel.bsky.social & MP Watch in Oxford next Tuesday

If the National Emergency Briefing had been able to squeeze in another briefing Plastic and other Pollution would have been my top picks. Here’s why. Two other contenders would be Misinformation and the Psychology of Action.

Here are some of my refelctions jsut adfter the National Emergency Briefing

3️⃣ Counter misinformation: Challenge it wherever you see it. It has plagued us for too long.
4️⃣ Use Your Power: Ask yourself what is your personal power and influence? Exert it. If you're in a position of influence and can't find the courage to step up, step down and let someone else lead.

1️⃣ Sign the Letter: Calling Keir Starmer, major broadcasters, and Ofcom to launch the national TV information campaign this emergency demands. www.nebriefing.org/open-letter-...
2️⃣ Share the message: Help us push out the follow-up events, including the briefing film when it’s released next year.
