This is just one of the three times he refused to condemn Trump. @Ianblackford_MP asked him again twice and he refused. You can find that on the parliament website using the date of this tweet.

Johnson called it the "height of lunacy" to suggest that Churchill, a man who said that native americans were "replaced by a superior race", was a racist.

I used to hate doing bibliographies at uni. Listing all my sources seemed like such a chore. Now I find it therapeutic. I'm basically saying "hey, look, I'm not making this **** up. Go see for yourself if you want to question my facts".

I get why the Big Brexiteers are against making #facemasks mandatory...
Binding yourself to rules made collectively for the common good at the expense of selfish exceptionalism is so off-brand for them.
I mean, these are the same people who think the visual appearance of a PassPort is more important than the ports it lets you pass.
So OF COURSE they think seeing someone's smile (visual well-being) is more important than them actually being healthy.
These are the same people who made up things the EU was supposedly about to force us to do despite clear evidence they were lying.
So OF COURSE they would say a #facemask is the first step toward permanent facial sneeze catchers.🙄

Right-Wing dictionary:

Anti-Racism = Racism
Equality = Oppression
Caring about others = Snowflake
Caring about working class = Communism
Thinking immoral people shouldn't be role models = Cancel Culture
This is my favourite example of that first one:
Other versions include the "Laurence Fox special".
Everyone has privileges that help them in their society.
E.g. My parental/financial support, nationality, sex etc... All give me advantages.
Denying your privileges exist means you want to maintain them. i.e You're Anti-equality.

20 Days to Avoid No-Deal - THREAD

The deadline to request an extension to the Brexit transition period is 30 June. Otherwise, if we don't agree a deal by 31 October, it's No-Deal on December 31.

So here are 20 reasons to #ExtendTheTransition, one on each day we have left.
2⃣0⃣ Days to avoid No-Deal

▪️ 1/2 UK fish is sold tariff-free to EU
▪️ WTO rules force EU to put tariffs on UK fish
▪️ That puts UK fish at a disadvantage against EU countries, including Norway who have a deal

1⃣9⃣ Days to avoid No-Deal

The doctors you've been clapping every Thursday (@TheBMA) warned us 2 years ago that No-Deal Brexit would make us more vulnerable to pandemics.
So with a possible 2nd wave coming, maybe now's not the time?
