There are many videos of ICE officers doing outrageous stuff but a lot of the absolute worst videos are of Border Patrol, who are basically Bovino and Miller’s most aggressive tool right now.
After the Leveson Inquiry, is the press now beyond control?
The Leveson Inquiry was meant to usher in a new era of press regulation, but have we gone from one ineffective regulator to another?

Campaign group Restore Nature with @davegoulson.bsky.social are fighting to protect Todrig from turning into an ecological desert in the form of a spruce plantation– Scot Forestry didn’t even think it deemed an environmental impact assessment . Beggars belief .

The Charity Commission 'investigation' of a 'charity' (which is really a free market lobbyist that doesn't declare its funders) incredibly accepts assurances that it isn't an overtly political body.

What do we mean when we say "tax the super rich"? Well, we’re not talking about the guy down the road that does his weekly shop in Waitrose.
Unless, he also have over £10 million in assets. But he probably doesn't because that’s just 0.04% of the UK population.

More sensible ideas . People need to demand politicians ( of all parties) get out of the sandbox, and look after best interest of whole country - not just their “buddies”.

Diese Warnung ist unmissverständlich.
@francescabria.bsky.social & @josebautista.bsky.social haben das Vorgehen von US-Big-Tech kartografiert.
Ihre Fazit: Ein autoritäres Netzwerk ist auch hier dabei den Staat zu privatisieren.
