Labour has a comical poll lead because the Tories have finally been allowed to collapse after years of being propped up by the press.
Labour will soar to victory on the back of historically low turnout, and then do nothing worth mentioning for five years. Enjoy. https://twitter.com/Golf17109431/status/1628305780087615490

This hateful woman talked back to a Holocaust survivor last month and nobody admonished her for it, so she just carries on.

Here's an uncomfortable American history fact. While folks often point out that after Jesse Owens won 4 gold medals at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Hitler refused to shake his hand.
But what happened next? Well, after returning home, Owens & 17 other Black Olympians were denied an invite to the White House. Instead, President Roosevelt only invited white Olympians. And it wasn't until 2016 that the White House finally apologized and invited their descendants to the WH.
2016.

I have no pet issues, I just believe everyone, including refugees and Palestinians, have basic rights to food, shelter, education, health, and freedom and if these odious individuals refuse to recognize that it's in the bin with them. https://twitter.com/realBenBloch/status/1628108404110524443

Discussing whether politics is too brutal without mentioning the cruelty dished out to children living in poverty? Oh, I get it, they mean the ‘brutal’ holding to account of MPs. #PoliticsLive
Reddit: "My friend is in university and taking a history class. The professor is using ChatGPT to write essays on the history topics and the students need to mark up its essays and point out where ChatGPT is wrong and correct it."

Honestly, this is great! The students learn to check sources, discover that ChatGPT is unreliable, *and* can't use it to generate essay question answers for them, all at the same time!
Malcolm X was assassinated 58 years ago today. This remains as one of my favorite pieces of wisdom he shared. And now, they're making it illegal to even claim the knife is there.
"If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, there's no progress. If you pull it all the way out that's not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the blow made. And they haven't even pulled the knife out much less heal the wound. They won't even admit the knife is there." — Malcolm X
