Are we still supposed to pretend these people have some form of moral authority?

No big deal personally but over the last week I have been losing 100s of followers every single day - well over 1,000 now I have been tweeting my normal pro-Palestinian, climate crisis and general left wing content Is it just me or is this a wider Musk development?

Tim Stanley is not worried about the richest man in the world using his wealth to subvert democracy, by buying a social media platform and converting it into a propagand and misinformation machine, because "the media is overwhelmingly left wing". 🤣😂~AA #BBCQT

Tell me more about these left-wing media barons who control the 'overwhelmingly left-wing news media' Tim... Maybe he's referring to those raging lefty billionaire media barons Rupert Murdoch, Paul Marshall, Jonathan Harmsworth, Jeff Bezos, Stan Hubbard, & Elon Musk? #bbcqt

Hello BBC News (UK), A British surgeon presented shocking evidence to a UK parliamentary committee that Israeli drones *target Palestinian children*. * Why is this not headline news? * Why does it not appear under ‘Israel-Gaza war’? * Why have you buried it under ‘local news’?

So a whole load of farmers are taking a day off to come to London and protest against a new tax which will not impact them at all and only applies to “rich” farmers, so sweet of them. 🙄 #FarmersProtest

So much misinformation around today on who will be affected by changes to inheritance tax - and lobbyists pretending the data isn't clear to obfuscate. We have detailed data on estates so the truth is in fact very clear if you care to look 🧵

If what you care about is just agricultural property, 84% of claims for relief are for less than £1.5m (which realistically is the minimum you'd have to have in assets including a farm before you start paying any tax). 96% are less than the £3m couples will still pass on tax free

Some farms include wider business assets - but even then 78% of claims are for less than £1.5m and 93% for less than £3m

And these numbers include those who aren't remotely real farmers but simply engaged in active tax planning. How do we know? Because we can see that around a fifth of those affected don't just own fields but lots of (IHT relieved) AIM shares - a clear sign of active tax planning

None of this takes away from those affected understandably being opposed to the change. Fair enough. But given this debate is now seeing totally untrue claims all over the shop important for it to be informed by the facts

Rishi Sunak National Farmers' Union No Farmers, No Food Farmers Weekly Duping farmers into voting for brexit knowing they would struggle without the CAP..... and then 'disappearing' billions of public money & leaving a shortfall. Not a good look.

The look of a war monger…
