The Daily Mail does not speak for Britain - pass it on...
Some newspapers like to claim that they represent the views of Britain, so we commissioned a poll to find out what people really think: ==> stopfundinghate.info/2017/12/18/you… & d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.net/cumulus_upload…
In common with every UK-based organisation we know that has publicly supported trans people, Stop Funding Hate has faced abuse & harassment in response to our work challenging media transphobia. 1/ stopfundinghate.info/2018/09/28/sto…
But the point of Stop Funding Hate is to challenge all forms of hate, and stand in solidarity with everyone facing marginalisation & discrimination, even when this generates a significant backlash. /2 #WeStandTogether stopfundinghate.info/2018/09/28/sto…
At a time when some UK organisations have been wavering in the face of a sustained “anti woke” backlash, we think it is more important than ever for #StopFundingHate to stand in solidarity with our trans supporters & the wider trans community /3 stopfundinghate.info/2018/09/28/sto…
The Mail on Sunday are airing demands for trans athletes to be forced to "compete in a separate category" & claim to have "led the way" on this. Do @MarksandSpencer @Tesco & @British_Airways endorse the Mail's call for trans exclusion or will they distance themselves from it?

Do you see what they did here?

A cash-strapped city council decides not to hold a November 5th event...

GB News then pushes a toxic narrative framing "woke councils" as a threat to "our culture" and falsely claims that Bonfire Night has been "banned"... /1
GB News then pushes the divisive & evidence-free suggestion that "they've singled out Bonfire Night because it's part of British culture", and frames this as part of a supposed wider threat to "British traditions" /2
GB News further ramps up the divisive narrative by suggesting that, in contrast, Black History Month, disability awareness & trans events would never "get cancelled" - with the implication that such events are *not* part of "British culture"... /3

If you work for a major advertiser here are some things your company can do. 🧵

Tell the big social media platforms how concerned you are that the violence on Britain’s streets is being fuelled by online hate and misinformation. /1 campaignlive.co.uk/article/adland…
In the meantime, stopping all advertising on X and Meta will send a clear message about how seriously you take this. It will also ensure that your ads are not aligned with any hateful and dangerous content. /2 campaignlive.co.uk/article/adland…
If you’re already among the many advertisers steering clear of X, going public about this decision can send an even more powerful message, and can also encourage other brands to follow suit. /3

Extraordinary that anyone would try to deny that the Daily Mail (among other UK media) has fuelled dangerous levels of racism. 🧵

Research by the UN High Commission for Refugees found that the Daily Mail – and The Sun – showed a hostility towards migrants that was “unique” among the newspapers they sampled across five European countries: 2/ unhcr.org/uk/media/press…

As long ago as 2008, the journalist Nick Davies published a shocking exposé of systemic racism within the Daily Mail newsroom, in his book Flat Earth News: 3/

Congratulations to @Grind for doing the right thing. Sadly they're now getting a hateful pile-on from Twitter accounts with long numbers in their name... Let's show that love is stronger than hate! #StartSpreadingLove
GB News might not like it - but companies are free to choose where they do & don't advertise, and customers are free to speak out & seek to influence those advertising choices...

Well done to @Grind for choosing love over hate 👏👏👏

@Grind are not far off 9,000 followers - can you give them a follow and help them get there?
