The damage Kemi Badenoch would do to the fight against racial inequality, as PM, should worry us all.

You know what?

It's too hot to sleep so let's take down some racists, shall we. 😊
Leo often complains about identify politics prioritising "immutable characteristic, not political leanings"

Yet when I explained why the political leanings of Kemi Badenoch would be bad for the UK. He responded: But she's black, so what's your problem?
😅
I don't think they realise that they're outing themselves as racist.

I gave multiple objective facts to explain why Kemi's politics is bad for society and so many of them are screaming "I CAN ONLY SEE HER SKIN COLOUR!" as loud as they can. 😬

You're right. I should be grateful.

"I have a dream that one day... Our Prime Ministers will be judged not by the content of their policies but by the colour of their skin..."

Or something like that, right? 🙄

And here's another one, arguing that Kemi Badenoch's skin colour matters more than her politics.

And these are the people who complain about 'identity politics'. 🙄

Boris Johnson isn't dead!
Why are journalists eulogising him like some tragic hero!?

He's the 1st PM to be found guilty of a crime, the UN says he tried to normalise white supremacy, his main policy damaged our economy more than Covid and he helped a sex pest run the party!
THIS is Boris Johnson!

Imagine if someone in 2016 said a vote for Brexit would leave UK politics so broken that in the space of 12 months, there'd be government misconduct over porn, rape, paedophilia, bribery, blowjobs, bullying and 126 crimes committed in Downing street, and they'd still be in power.

Never forget that the people being sent to Rwanda for coming to the UK in boats across the channel, have done more and risked more to be here than you ever have.

All you did was tumble out of someone who happened to be on UK soil.

And if you're wondering what could possibly have made me angry enough to tweet the above.

It was getting this message from my best friend.

I felt a big 🖕🏿to the Right-wing belief that we in the West somehow earned our position of privilege, was in order.

For the record:

I was in London Mon-Wed this week. I've published 2 of the 5 Tory MP interviews so far.

I say 'interviews'... Some were less constructive than others. You can compare how each of them respond to me...

But the most important point I want to make is this:
When you watch the interviews, compare power I have with the power news channels have.

MPs NEED those channels to get their message out. Whereas I'm just a guy with a selfie stick they can simply walk away from (eventually😈).

I HAVE to be gentler with MPs' egos than they do!
e.g.
I could have really nailed Ben Bradley on the supporting criminality point, but...

I sensed he was willing to engage and clearly had pre-prepared narrative to justify supporting Johnson, so I went with him on it, in order to highlight the flaws.

I asked Tory MP Ben Bradley why he voted for the UK to be led by a law-breaker.

Apparently Boris Johnson is the North's best hope and Brexit isn't done yet.

At the start of the interview, you can see my brain trying to decide between whether to stick to Party Gate, or drill down into the response he actually gave.

I'm glad I followed his argument instead, because it exposes the fact that Boris Johnson is not helping the North.

Everything the DUP is doing now is because news presenters failed to call out the biggest lie about Brexit:

Pro-Brexit groups (DUP, ERG, CON, BXP, LEXIT) fought each other over which Brexit they voted for, for 3 yrs.

But you NEVER questioned whether the 52% was a real majority.
I did...
Repeatedly!
