Anyone interested in free speech, will be angry or worried about this, surely?
The Canary will be closed for the foreseeable future.
As of today (Monday 19 October), the Canary will be closed indefinitely.
After multiple attacks this year, from Lloyds debanking us to former employees spreading malicious lies on social media, the situation has become unsustainable, both financially and operationally.
After 11 years, we take this action with deep sadness and regret. The extent of the lies, defamation, and harassment by ex-staff - coupled with the constant attacks by the state and those who’d see us destroyed - has become too much.
However, it is not over. This week, we will publish what really happened at the Canary and push back against the vicious campaign against our team and us.
We may be down, but we’re not out yet.

It doesn't matter how many times you cut disability benefits. Severely disabled people still won't be able to work.

We Jews have no right to steal even one centimeter of our ancestral homeland from the people already living there, much less to expel them, mass murder them, erase them.

Thank you Taj Ali
BBC Jo Coburn and the Tory MP didn't like @Taj_Ali1 saying it, but Taj is spot on UK politicians have been cheerleading Israels genocide in Gaza https://xitter.cf/t.co/On1ZLuFPr0
#Genocide #Israel #Gaza #Palestine #TajAli #politicslive
There WILL be more to come as your party, from the top to the bottom, is full of these characters.
You know that as a certainty!

@Helen_Whately does not seem to understand that disabled children become disabled adults. Stunning 👏👏👏

Nick Ferrari said this morning on @LBC that he doesn't believe that Reform are racist but believes that racists are attracted to them!
I'm sorry Mr Ferrari but I believe they are racists and that's the reason they are attracted to them!
Just reading interesting statistics recorded in Hansard:
Most child sexual offenders are white (88%)
Asian offenders were fewer than 6%
More Reform UK and Far Right lies it seems!

Approximately 12,000 Palestinian Arabs volunteered to serve in the British military during WWII, fighting in mixed or separate units alongside Jewish volunteers from Mandate Palestine across Europe, North Africa, Greece, and France.

After the crippling 2008 public bank bailouts - you’d think the banking lobby would choose its arguments more carefully.
If banks warn that taxing their profits means less lending, that strengthens the case for a more diverse banking sector.
Build on our mutuals. Create local savings banks modelled on Germany’s Sparkassen, alongside publicly owned national and regional investment banks. Give businesses more places to turn.
We grant commercial banks the extraordinary power to create money through lending. That should come with responsibilities.
So, perhaps sit this one out and take the hit - because you still owe us many times over.

Here’s a better idea.
Tax the massive windfall profits banks are making from higher interest rates.
And bail out ordinary people for a change!
The plan is to weed out Russian Assets @BorisJohnson
Don't worry @Feargal_Sharkey the Government will get that money from pensioners and the sick and needy!
Thames Water is due to run out of money (again) over the next few weeks. A year and a half ago it was given a £3 billion bailout now it's asking for another £2.4 billion.
We really are being taken for mugs.

BREAKING: Andy Burnham has clarified that Labour could never form a coalition with the Greens, due to their opposition to genocide and reluctance to quietly send arms to Israel while pretending to stand up to them

No, it's far too serious for that.
I don't know if he is the same person he is now compared to 20yrs ago, just like YOU don't know if he is guilty!
Any victim of rape and/or sexual assault, especially from a repeat predator deserves justice.
Time is no excuse to ignore rape!
That's a very bright gaslight!!
Antisemitism is a cancer in our politics.
We fought hard to root it out of our party.
We will not stand by and watch it infect public life again.

If you said that about a certain other religion, you would be rapidly carted off to prison!!
Without a doubt, Britain is being Islamified.
Deny it if you like. Then walk through Cardiff, Rochdale, Blackburn, Luton, parts of Birmingham, Bradford and large stretches of East London.
It is not “multiculturalism.” It is one culture. Islam.
British families have been pushed out. High streets have changed. Flags have changed. The atmosphere has changed.
The establishment will call this “far-right.” They always do. The British public can see what is happening with their own eyes.
I will not sit back and watch this country become something else. Neither should you.
