Why is @RidgeOnSunday letting Michael Gove tell blatant lies about Brexit on TV?
#Ridge @michaelgove
I mean SERIOUSLY!

I had to deal with a moving target, mockery from his assistants, as well as filming it myself with a self-stick & a phone...

And I STILL held Michael Gove to account on Brexit better than @SkyNews did with a multi-million pound studio!!
Imagine asking about how the Prime Minister takes his tea... but NOT asking about why their main manifesto has damaged the economy more than a deadly pandemic!

Is that journalism @RidgeOnSunday?

Dear @SkyNews,

Listen to Emily Maitlis.

You are raising a generation to look elsewhere for news.

YouTube, Twitter, Tiktok, Instagram... are capitalising on your failure to tell the truth on issues like Brexit.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is...Thanks for the followers.👍🏿

Stop attacking Rishi Sunak for being rich!

Being rich doesn't make him a ****.

Consistently cutting benefits makes him a ****.

Bragging about defunding poor areas for rich ones makes him a ****.

Being 100x richer than those he's hurting just rubs salt in the wound!

Every time you attack his wealth, instead of his actions, you give the Tories an open goal to say "Lefties just hate ambition. They're obsessed with the politics of envy".

There are SO MANY easy targets to hit on Rishi Sunak. Why help him play the victim!!
#BBCqt
All of the counter-arguments I'm seeing on this tweet... they aren't counter-arguments at all.

They're all along the lines of: "It does matter how rich he is if he's made his money doing x, y, z".

So attack him for doing x, y, z!!

This isn't complicated!

The word "globalist" has been an antisemitic dog-whistle for a while, but is anyone else seeing it get used more an more often in the last few months?
Tell me you don't understand the word "dog-whistle", without telling me you don't understand the word "dog-whistle".

Would it make any sense to spend 2016-21 debating Brexit, if we weren't all certain the consequences would last much longer than 5 years?

The only people telling you Brexit is yesterday's news are the ones trying to avoid responsibility for the damage.

They're gaslighting you!
I mean let's just look at the last 7 days...

The last 3 Tory Prime Ministers ALL campaigned against Brexit at some point, because they know it makes people poorer, and yet NONE of them had the moral integrity to say so when they had the power to do something about it.
This is what @BorisJohnson REALLY thought about the effects of being in the EU Single Market.

🚩 330K deaths via austerity
🚩 208K Covid deaths
🚩 Tore apart society on EU
🚩 Took £100billion off GDP via Brexit
🚩 Constantly attack poor people: school meals, A-level grades, NI Tax, welfare cuts...

What does it say about you if you DON'T hate the Tories?

If the UK had a functioning news system...

"Lead Brexit MP refuses to answer whether Brexit has made people poorer NINE TIMES"

Would be headline news. And yet... 🤔
This is video is the culmination of 6 years of economy-crippling lies... But have you seen it on any news channels?
The answer is simple:

It would expose all of them as the Tory-enabling client journalists they are.

Brexit is the TITLE of the current government's manifesto.
The fact that its effects aren't being regularly evaluated the press in interviews can ONLY be explained by complicity.
