Time to leave twitter. It’s become a cesspool out of lies. Led by Elon Musk. I’m off.

Musk is pretending to be a Bond villain. It would be mildly amusing were it not for the fact that he’s the richest man in the world & has captured the most powerful leader in the world, whilst the rest seem to be cowards.

It’s quite disgusting and should be removed asap.

I'm not here to advocate for Starmer or Labour, but this from the @FT counters the nonsense that Musk and Ackman are spreading about a country that they know nothing about. Source here: on.ft.com/421zL2S

Last time I looked, Elon Musk was worth over $400bn. What has he done to help young women and girls? He's helped a rapist become President, leading a party that believes in removing a woman's right to choose, even when raped.

Look up how much this would have cost you had the NHS been privatised by your mate Farage. Probably about £10k at least…

Nick Robinson making a complete prat of himself interviewing Wes Streeting #r4today His almost pathological determination to trigger a "gotcha" moment -a clear example of shallow one dimensional journalism interrogating an issue of grave national concern ie adult social care.

Every member of @Keir_Starmer’s government should publicly slap this kind of nonsense down. Not to do so is both cowardly and disloyal to a colleague. There is no “long-game” about it; Elon Musk’s behaviour is vile and dangerous.
Elon Musk is out of control and a danger to British society. How long before some deranged lunatic acts on this kind of incitement? Keir Starmer must take a stand against him.

In this tweet @elonmusk accuses @jessphillips of being "a rape genocide apologist". This is evil nonsense. Musk has lost his marbles. Perhaps we do need a wide inquiry into extremism in British life. Neither Islamic State or a fascist beneficiary of apartheid like Musk or hustlers for Russian money like Tommy Robinson are welcome here. Here's TR's interview with a Russian website: vm.ru/society/782421-britans… "And as for Skripal, if Russia needed to get rid of him, it would have done it quietly, without unnecessary noise, without using Russian chemical weapons. It was stupid..." Q: Would you like to meet Putin and what would you say to him if such a meeting took place? TR: "Of course, I would like to meet him. I would say: 'Let’s have a glass of beer, Vladimir.' He is the most powerful man in the West. I would ask Putin to fight against censorship and propaganda, which is also used against his country. I would ask him to give me a TV show on Russian television." TR is Putin's bitch. And so, I fear, is Musk.

Private schools do not sell an education. Education is free. They sell access, the old boys network, an unfair advantage. That should not only be taxed, it should be fucking abolished.

How easy of you all to leap on poor Suella Braverman for a simple slip of the tongue. She didn’t mean to say the wall Italy built on its border with Turkey. She was talking about the wall Italy had built on its border with Syria. Show Suella some respect😡

It is my duty, as a virologist of over 30 years, who has studied most major viral pathogens of humans, and many of animals, who has isolated many viruses by limiting dilution purification, to point out that Kelly here, is, without a shadow of a doubt, a fucking idiot.
