It is time to boycott LBC they are a platform that does not support free speech, only pro Israel speech.

They have removed Sangita Myska because she dared to saying bombing an Embassy was wrong.

Time to Cancel them, RT if you are boycotting too.

Steph Spyro A lot to unpack in this utter car crash. The serious points being the acceptance that some people are coming to the UK because they are fleeing “safe” Rwanda. But also that we are forcibly sending people to a country engaged in violent cross-border attacks with its neighbour

The police chief investigating Rayner previously spoke at the Tory conference and was praised by Daly, before being asked by him to reinvestigate her.

Are the police colluding with the Tories to bring down Rayner? Looks like it. Meanwhile, serious Tory crimes are just ignored…

There are 177 billionaires worth £653bn operating in the UK.

122 pay £0 tax because they aren't even registered in the UK at all, most of the other 55 while pay £0 as well, none will pay more than 20%.

If we taxed them all at 45% like everyone else, it would raise £43bn a year.
