No, not 💯 Elon. In the U.K. they’re not going round ‘finding people who’ve said something they disagree with and putting them in a f—king cage.’ Some people are being charged for inciting racial hatred and for organising acts of violence. It’s very specific, and it’s the law in most democracies including the US. For example, one person has pleaded guilty today to inciting an attack on a hotel housing asylum seekers: an attack which then took place. Another hotel was set on fire, with people still inside. Freedom carries responsibility: and freedom of speech carries with it the responsibility of each of us to use our words wisely and to be aware of the damage misinformation can cause. To be clear, criminal violence directed towards various communities in the U.K. was perpetrated as a result of malicious and specifically targeted misinformation online. And it’s a relief no-one was killed. Words matter. And yet here you are, running a huge information network, and all you can do is post 💯 over something you choose not to verify for accuracy, not alert people to it’s highly damaging nature. In fact, because of who you are, your 💯 gives it a stamp of approval in the eyes of those who seek validation for their actions. What we say and do has real consequences. That’s because we’re not in a matrix, we’re in real life, and sticking 💯 on a lie doesn’t turn it into truth.

Put simply: If you engage in violent protests, you will face the full force of the law.

If anyone doubts the fate of those about to be arrested, I represented clients during the 2011 London riots. The CJS was brutal. Bail refused prior to court. People remanded in custody however minor their involvement pending trial at the Crown Court for heavier sentencing. 1/

Like a scene from a 1970s sitcom. The pomposity of the response is comedy gold.
🚨We just dropped in on Farage’s election rally with a beaming picture of Putin. Nigel was not pleased.

Some of you may have that a father and son just died on Glencoe . It was my brother’s best mate Tom Parry. His widow Gemma cares for their son who has non-verbal autism. We’re raising money to help her care for him. Please consider donating & sharing 🙏🏻 gofund.me/7245a5ee

Low-dose oral minoxidil (5 mg per day) had similar efficacy to topical minoxidil, 5%, for men with androgenetic alopecia and can be an option for patients who prefer oral therapy or are intolerant to topical treatment. ja.ma/3W0js38

The plain simple truth
When I need to call out a plumber I’m grateful to pay £40/h because I don’t have the first clue how to fix my boiler, or the skills to fix a burst pipe Doctors are asking for half of that, to fix your kids In life we get the health services we pay for

Meet Ratrun Ronnie. He knows the backstreets of @RBKC, and he's not going to sit in a jam behind that Harrods van. From my commute home yesterday.

Just extraordinary. We have to share the road with these drivers. Her car should be crushed into a small cube and placed in her front garden.

Every word of this story is incredible: 1. The police took a WEEK to arrive 2. A local councillor told the shopowner not to share the footage as it might "damage the reputation of Chiswick" 3. The thieves behaved like normal shoppers @TheChiswickCal wp.me/paXMJO-1Mbg
