New rules encompass every town & city, national bodies and NHS. Combined value of contracts is £300bn per annum!

Massive opportunity for taxpayer spend to finally embed tax justice 1/n #DirtyMoney
Research shows that c.17.5% of UK public contracts are won by companies linked to tax havens: likely the highest rate in Europe

But UK polling finds that two thirds of people believe public procurement should consider a business' tax conduct before such contracts are agreed 2/n
Moreover, there is a growing movement of towns & cities across the UK that want to use their buying power to encourage responsible tax conduct

We spoke to FPC's @skcoughtrie & journalists @pcaruanagalizia & @RewcastleBrown about corrosive impact this has on public interest reporting 👇🧵
Recent high-profile #SLAPP cases involving @carolecadwalla, @CatherineBelton & @tomburgis are ‘tip of the iceberg’ according to London Calling report, with many cases never reaching court due to threat of astronomical legal fees

PM @JustinTrudeau's proposed changes to Canadian Human Rights Act will effectively end free expression in Canada.

The Orwellian bill defines “hate speech” as communication that expresses *detestation or vilification* identifiable groups.

Why is this scary? Read on.

@JustinTrudeau @scoopercooper revealed that Chinese Communist Party agents soaked up Canada's PPE supply and sent it to China at the beginning of the pandemic. A group working out of Minister @JoyceMurray's office launched a campaign to silence Cooper claiming Cooper vilified Chinese Canadians.
@JustinTrudeau @scoopercooper @JoyceMurray Had Trudeau's new censorship plans been in place, @scoopercooper could've been charged under the Human Rights Act for reporting the truth.

Facebook CEO #MarkZuckerberg making PERSONAL <AND> CORPORATE donations to congress right now BEFORE testimony.

It's time to #FollowTheMoney and #FollowTheFamily

#QAnon #GreatAwakening @realDonaldTrump
2) #Zuckerberg sold more stock than any other insider of the past 3 months.
The money is needed to payoff house and senate panels.
It also allowed him to sell a small portion of his fortune at the top of the market.
