Top tip for Labour folk: people in glass houses shouldn’t throw bricks

A little thread on Labour’s tolerance of Islamophobes since Starmer became leader

1) Remember that report on #Islamophobia in Labour?
2) Donations from an islamophobe
3) Remember the Batley and aspen by-election? When Labour Muslims urge Keir Starmer to take ‘urgent action’ over party official’s ‘vile Islamophobia’?

4) Appointing an islamophobe to a prominent role in Labour
5) Suspending Trevor Phillips for Islamophobia but then speedily readmitting him and then putting him forward for a knighthood!
This tweet from when he was suspended..
6) Islamophobia in Labour isn’t a new thing it’s a “moderate” thing. When they lead the party, it just seems to happen

7) And let’s not forget what the king of the “moderates” thinks of Muslims Image

1/ The mainstream media are letting the Tories off with their #Budget21 coverage. Their accepting the Tory narrative and not doing adequate fact checking.
So, this is an ongoing Thread with fact checking on the Budget
(items in no particular order)
2/ The outlook isn’t “optimistic” the way Sunak claims - The UK is forecast to suffer the worst economic damage from Covid-19 of any G7 country.
3/ Borrowing - this stuff about balancing the books is nonsense, borrowing as practically equalled GDP, ie the money the whole economy makes since 1700!

1/ With the #COP26 conference, there'll be many good words and statements of intent from political leaders on the #ClimateCrisis The thing is there's what they do and what they say.
This is an ongoing Thread logging the hypocrisy of the UK leaders. Establishment media won't be!
2/ Prince Charles - standing in for the Queen, will be a centre of attention. His own *conservation* charity accepted money from the world's biggest oil company, the Saudi company, Aramco.
3/ Prince Charles (cont.) - the Prince's own lifestyle is hardly a model for being climate friendly. @RepublicStaff have posted billboards in Glasgow to spotlight his record.

It’s odd that as the BBC and Sky regularly cycle through the list of violent attacks on MPs they don’t mention an attempt to kill the then Leader of the Opposition. Image
2/ They also neglect to mention that time that the then Leader of the Opposition was assaulted. Image
3/ The BBC and Sky also forget to mention that time when an image of the Leader of the Opposition was used as target practice by serving soldiers

1/ The Tories excuse for being late to lockdown in 2020 is that they worried the public wouldn't want that sort of restriction or be able to handle it, so they had to delay it for as long as possible.
Rubbish.
This Thread with evidence from the time why that claim is nonsense.
2/ The Tories didn't lockdown until March 23rd but this poll from a month earlier (28th Feb) shows that public already had a desire for stronger restrictions..
3/ Many organisations didn't wait for the Tories to act. On March 13th (ten days before lockdown), the main football bodies decided themselves to suspend all games.(NB what I'm calling social distancing here means lockdown, we weren't using that word then)

The disastrous mistakes by the Tory government in dealing with #COVID19 were enabled by an Opposition leader who went out of his way to support very major decision (mistake) they made
WATCH two clips in this Thread from 2020 that remind us just how much Starmer backed the Tories
Clip 1 - Ridge gives Starmer opportunity after opportunity to criticise the government's obvious mistakes. He declines each time.
Clip 2 - BBC Laura gives Starmer an opportunity to criticise the governments mismanagement of PPE for #COVID19 he gives a very soft reply

The fuel crisis and EU HGV drivers - media coverage Sky vs BBC
Two clips on this Thread, one from Sky, the other from the BBC. I'll make no judgement here. Watch them both, see which one gives you a better understanding of the situation. If you do, comment on what you think
1/4
Clip (1) Sky News
Clip (2) BBC1 News
