This will come as no surprise, but last night's violent far right protests in Knowsley, U.K. were promoted freely on social media.
Facebook has groups like 'Hotels Housing Illegals' and Twitter has accounts like Yorkshire Rose(Get The Migrants Out).
All of these groups were promoting violent disorder and hate speech last night, and are celebrating violent disorder and hate speech this morning, with no consequence.
There are laws against this.
But where is the accountability?
This is an analysis that doesn't love either imperialism. Worth a watch.

Unison and RCN have been briefing that a similar pay offer to that made in Wales (7.75%) could end the health strikes. Activists should push back against leadership attempts to end the strikes so far from the union's demands.

We’ve noticed a lot of people confusing the Gender Recognition Reform bill, which doesn’t afford new rights to trans people, with the existing Gender Recognition Act which does. This is caused by bad actors and a corrupt tabloid media, including BBC Scotland, indulging them.

🚨 | BREAKING: Art collector Teddy Baumgartner, who won a £1,100 Sworders auction for a portrait of former prime minister Margaret Thatcher that had been rescued from a skip, has complained that the painting is, "absolutely saturated in urine, the smell of ammonia is unbearable."

How many national leaders are not initiators or perpetuators of war?
How many can say they and their nation's security, military and diplomatic services have worked assiduously for peace above all else?
We live in a world run by war criminals, whether by commission or omission.
I found this really useful, lots of explanation and good arguments when you come up against the knee jerks.

Elon flips shit on an employee who politely told him that the views feature isn’t broken, he just doesn’t have enough clout.
I came to this story because a source at Twitter messaged me and said “he really did fire an engineer for telling the truth” 😵

Rishi Sunak's @Conservatives have been told to stop using the phrase 'levelling up communities', & instead use the terms 'stepping up', or 'gauging up'.
A far more honest & accurate phrase to use would be 'fucking up'.
Discovered why the passport office have been asking me to send my old passport over and over. Envelope arrived empty and damaged. I had an acknowledgment saying it had arrived. In December. I need it end April for holidays. Ffs.
I contacted them to ask why they keep asking me for a document they said they had.
Ffffffffs

When I'm pushing the twins in their pram and someone asks me if they're mine
I say “no, they're for my collection” and run away as fast as I can
This morning I took a picture of it alone but i don’t remember it being blurry like this.

When they attack #Transgender folks it’s because they have no policies — they’re a cabal of chaos agents.
All they know is to destroy.
We have to fight against these constitutional vandals in every way possible before this country is something out of a Margaret Atwood draft.

Compared to average male employee:
•Women are paid 8.3% less
•Black African women paid 26% less
•Bangladeshi and Pakistani women paid 28% and 31% less!
Instead of disputing respected ONS figures and pretend there’s no problem, Ministers need to fix these dreadful disparities

Healthcare is complex.
This crisis isn’t.
Over a decade this govt have undermined the NHS, and now it’s in disarray.
All to try and squeeze some more profit from your suffering.
That’s how little Sunak & Co. care about you.

It is a very big deal that the Biden administration is cracking down on “junk fees.”
They're egregious and they’re everywhere:
Bank overdraft fees
Airline ticketing fees
Credit card late fees
Cell phone termination fees
They're used to manipulate and prey on working people.
This morning the moon was bright in the trees but the phone’s camera hid it.
Prevent has always been a vehicle for state-level harassment of muslims. Always.
