At what point does the government move to do something about the open incitement of far right pogroms on X? Or the spreading of hate speech and wild misinformation on the platform? It’s all happening in plain sight. What else has to burn?
I don't know how Keir Starmer can wake up in the morning, see that pogroms have been taking place under his watch, that they are being fuelled by literal illegal activity on social media, and not make it his entire purpose to stop it. We know you're no politician, but are you not a lawyer?
Everyone on X and elsewhere who called for a violent response should be charged with incitement.
Everyone involved in the pogrom should be locked up with exemplary sentences.
Govt should make it clear that will be the response in future anywhere else.
Enough.
Musk haa been openly arguing for the value & necessity of violence in the UK (against migrants and minorities as an existemtial threat) for 9 momths. He has doubled down on it during a dsngerius heightened flashpoint

I have to say, listening to the Today programme dedicate an entire (context free) section about whether migrants are more likely to be convicted criminals *the morning after* hundreds of non-migrants of my own ethnicity committed a pogrom is blood boiling.
For the hundredth time. These are not "patriots". They are conspiring with our enemies to destroy this country and need to be treated accordingly
