Letter from Ed Davey to Keir Starmer condemning Elon Musk for inciting violence and urging unity to defend democracy.

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.

As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

Petition: Ensure plurality of political coverage across UK broadcast media at all times We want to ensure that a plurality of views from all political parties in Westminster are represented and the nations parliaments are heard all year round, not just election times. The rules for coverage during elections should apply at all times.

Sick of BBC continuously promoting Reform U.K. and ignoring other parties with far more representation? Please sign the petition

What makes this criminal damage acceptable? Sometimes red paint can get you 14 years. Sometimes it is tolerated. When did intimidating your neighbours become acceptable?

Flags on lampposts. Red marks on roads. Balaclavas outside hotels.

This isn't patriotism, writes Prof Richard Murphy. It's intimidation.

Why arenโ€™t the laws applied?
