Good Law Project launches campaign to tackle disinformation on #Meta in the #UK!
Of course there wouldn't be such an issue if the #UK hadn't respected the rigged #Brexit vote and still had the #EU protections!

I think #BBCNews is missing part of Badenoch's quote. Surely it is:
"Net zero by 2050 'impossible' for UK, because #Tories failed to act on the very legal commitment we passed into law"
BBC News - Net Zero by 2050 'impossible' for UK, says Kemi Badenoch - BBC News

UK Gov’t orders #Apple to #spy on users
The government has issued secret order to have constant access to ALL of our #iPhone #data
This will apply to the ENTIRE world; not just UK citizens
It's unprecedented for a Government in any #democracy to take away our right to have a private conversation, without the state listening in
EU files 2 court cases against UK over post-Brexit actions
EU law gives #EU citizens & families right to live, work & move freely across EU countries
#UK was supposed to respect rights for EU #citizens who were already living there at the end of 2020, but instead limited who could benefit from them
The second case relates to Bilateral Investment Treaties (BITs) that the UK still has in force with six EU nations

Ethical alarms should be ringing over jabs for the jobless
Would taking a drug be voluntary or would it be mandatory for entitlement to #benefits? Recalling Labour’s previous support for conditionality & sanctions, one can see which way it would go
Would giving #drugs for obesity be precedent for other medical conditions?
Many #unemployed become #depressed. Will #DWP mandate #antidepressants, or lose benefits?
Labour sticks with Tories £1.3bn benefits #cuts branded shameless
#Labour expected to retain changes to “work capability assessment” that were introduced last year by #Tories with critics saying they “should be utterly ashamed of themselves”
#Disability rights activists called on Kendall to reverse changes, as they pose severe risks to vulnerable people with mental and physical conditions

@tagesschau erste Sachen werden von den #torylies -freundlichen Medien unsachlich zugespitzt und skandalisiert. Einige Dinge sind so bzw. Noch schlimmer unter #johnson und Co. Auch abgelaufen und die selben Zeitungen haben damals nicht berichtet. Just for perspective
‘Doesn’t feel fair’: young Britons struggle with losing right to work in EU since #Brexit
Since the #UK left the #EU, people with only a British passport typically need a work permit to work in the rest of Europe, making hiring them more difficult for an EU employer. “That was my plan, and now it’s been significantly scuppered,” Kinsey said
Robert Generic has a video out which has a short clip of a black man, presumably intended to be a refugee, with a large block of money and dropping the notes as he counts them. The intended subliminal message is disgusting.
Robert Jenrick is obviously adopting the Trump/Vance playbook of saying extreme s**t knowing that it is untrue because...¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
This time in a scripted and pre-prepared video he claims that British soldiers are committing murder and war crimes... because of the ECHR.
Reluctantly you have to admire their chutzpah. Maybe abandoning blind unionism and rejecting their automatic (copied by Liebour) to treat Scotland as a dependency of London and one that owes a debt of land and resources to the ‘Kingdom’ might help?

Here’s the real crisis facing the Tories: their older voters are dying off, and nobody’s replacing them

My heart bleeds I tell you. Actually I am laughing all the way to my retirement.
Rachel Reeves paves way for cuts and tax rises to fill shortfall left by Tories
Chancellor will announce pause in work on a number of infrastructure projects, saying Conservatives ‘covered up’ true state of finances
“But upon my arrival at the Treasury three weeks ago, it became clear that there were things I did not know. Things that the party opposite covered up from the country.”
