Please beware the Twitter accounts sharing seemingly harmless nostalgia, which are, in reality, spreading xenophobia and racism. @Otto_English has dubbed this trend #Shitstalgia. Here is a case in point: Sandy of Suffolk.... 1/n Image
Sandy was quick to say her thread wasn't intended to be racist, but does that stack up? #Shitstalgia
2/n Image
Someone replied to Sandy of Suffolk with a beautiful photo of the Shah Jahan Mosque. Take a look at Sandy's reply. So, Sandy, Muslims aren't British, then?

Susan Hall has been selected by Conservative members to become the party's mayoral candidate for London after winning 57% of the vote. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
I wonder what Conservative party HQ makes of Susan Hall's now deleted tweet about Dan Wootton, given the @BylineTimes revelations of a couple of days ago?

@BylineTimes I wonder what London's diverse electorate will make of Susan Hall thinking a gesture to show opposition to racism is "really bad"? Image

It's May 2023 and Darren Grimes is still hoping King Charles doesn't remember that he only recently called him the "Clown Prince". ImageImage
Coronation day and Darren Grimes is bursting with loyalty and allegiance to King Charles III, the man who under a year ago was dubbed "Clown Prince" by Grimes. ImageImageImageImage
On Coronation Day, Dan Wootton praises the new King, Charles III, all his previous criticism forgotten. It wouldn't have been good for his career to have maintained a consistent line, now, would it? ImageImageImage
