A report back and thank you to all my followers for you help inngetting memout of the shadow ban I had.

It seems to have worked over 3 days by a combination of actions.

I stopped tweeting repeat messages to New Lib Dem members (sorry!) & varying them now. Retweeting fewer Gifs
It is disconcerting as I hadn’t realised I WAS shadow-banned until another Twitter user pointed it out having done a check using this tool.

Anyone can check their own account

But because you retweeted (I cut back on repeat tweets &odd hour tweeting) =OK

shadowban.eu
I’ll be a bit more alert now to my twitter feed going quiet, lots of tweets saying I can’t see tweets as my account settings are too sensitive (they aren’t), a change in fllwrs numbers or a sudden drop in the numbers of people I follow (where I’ve no recollection of unfollowing)

“My best expectation, with my 30 years of financial experience, is that there will not be an economic impact," says Leadsom on Brexit.

But then she also says that sterling has not changed since Cameron fired the Brexit starring gun.

Really? See chart

See that massively sharp fall on the left of the chart?

That is the point from just before the referendum.

I hope Osborne will take it upon himself to refute her belief that he really wants Brexit. (Another example of her delusional thinking).
This sort of gross misjudgment & misrepresentation especially as 1 manufacturer after another announce closures and cut backs is the sort of thing that MUST be identified and punished come the Public Inquiry.

No Deal more popular than May’s Deal, But UK Now Wants To Remain!
End April 2019. YouGov

53% Remain v 34% No Deal or 12% May’s deal.

When the 2 highest set against one another (Remain v No Deal) then 61% seek to remain.

Reasons of interest (Tweet 2) kisbridgingloans.co.uk/finance-news/n…
Scare tactics turn people off

That is a problem for Remainers who are scared by what seems a looming unpleasant reality.

Yet the £350 mill pw message has left people feeling cheated.

A message dichotomy.

But most think staying in the EU preferable to leaving with an bad deal
Cautionary note.

I could find no link to the underlying data tables on YouGov so do not know that cohort size or order of questions, but as New European had published it already and this gave more info I thought it was worth a follow up.

In the Tories' darkest hour, they need a Churchill.

“never in the field of political conflict were so many candidates found so wanting, so many, with so much to say, to so little effect.”

⁦@lewis_goodall⁩ news.sky.com/story/in-the-t…
Of the multiplication of candidates:

“far from this being a sign of health, of a plethora of talent on display, it is in fact the opposite, a nod to a party mired in ill-discipline & deep decay. It confirms the weakness of the front runners, those in the great offices of state”
3/ “Through political weight they should be able to command allegiance but they cannot.

So tainted or problematic are they that their power within the party to cajole, to force the smallest of minnows to get in line, is far more limited than it ought to be.”

OBASANJO, WHERE IS THE POWER?
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo is a troubled soul. What better way to show his restless nature than that at a time he would have been in retirement, the old man is hustling on the streets. At a time he was supposed to sit back and thank God for his bountiful favours on him,
Obasanjo is trudging on the roads, swearing, lying and scheming for power. Yes, at over eighty years, this fellow who is among the few that have been hugely favored by the inchoate Nigerian state and who has made very bountiful, corrupt harvest from that fling of fortune,

I met Shyla last year in a meeting. Her father had dreamt of making her a doctor. But his dreams drowned in the sewer he had died in. This is her story. (ruralindiaonline.org/articles/my-mo…)
Ten years later, Shyla is almost close to realising her father’s dream. She is doing her nursing course, and she needs help. As a society that sent her father down the sewers, I think it is our responsibility to see that she becomes a nurse.
When I met her again last month, Shyla was exuding confidence. “I will soon be a nurse and if you need anything, call me over” she told me and i cant wait.
Shyla’s course fee for third year comes close to Rs 1 lakh. I already have someone pledging Rs 10,000.

Are the TV news media actually culpable for today’s terrorist attack by constantly reinforcing a narrative where any criticism of Islam is forbidden? Must be silenced on the grounds it is, bigoted, racist, Islamophobic, or insert your own favourite buzzword here now. Thread 1/13
So after a news cycle of seemingly never-ending Boris bashing by all of the major UK TV stations over a joke made at the expense of a religion, whose adherents we are constantly informed by the same TV stations are all peaceful and not suffering from mental health issues. 2/13
Or in the case of the suicide bombers “we may never know their true motivation” even when this is in fact not the case, fortunately no-one was killed this time, which makes a very refreshing change, but that appears to have been more down to luck than anything else. 3/13

 This young man is Muhammad Sharif Badwan. He was killed East of #Gaza City at the Karni crossing after being shot in the chest by #IDF gunfire on Friday afternoon. #Israel
2/5
 Many news sites refer to Badwan as either a protestor or a demonstrator who was shot and killed by the #IDF. The photo on the left, from the DailyMail, states Badwan is a protestor. The photo on the right from CGTN states Badwan is a protestor as well.
3/5
 The problem is Badwan wasn’t there to protest in the way most people think. This video was taken Friday afternoon at the Karni crossing where Palestinians were clashing w/ #IDF soldiers. At the end, you can see Badwan being evacuated after getting shot by the #IDF.

› back to black ‧ taekook au

the one where taehyung is a spy, jungkook is his target, and the world is their playground.
The first time Taehyung goes on a mission, it’s by complete accident.

There’s some sort of chaos outbreak at HQ, and before he knows it, Taehyung--an untrained, unpaid, unsure intern--is swept into a slick black SUV and sent off to an unknown location.
He looks around, not very optimistic at the sight of the other nervous faces in the car. When the vehicle finally stops, the doors are pulled open by a very gruff-looking man, his face streaked with blood and his arm in a rough-looking sling.

back to morven farm for day two of the city council planning retreat. this event is “open to the public,” but is 20 minutes outside of town, GPS to the address takes you to the wrong gate, the number on their site is dead, & you have to give your name to a gatekeeper. “open” huh?
civic engagement starter pack: notebook, pen, external battery, snacks. not pictured: steely resolve to make it through the whole damn day.
the false entrance is blocked off with cones this morning and the gatekeeper only asked if i was “a citizen,” not for my name. i can’t help but feel like these changes are a response to my furious call to city hall yesterday.
