If you can’t see that the recent attacks on leaders of the new gov, with regards their relatively minor misdemeanours compared to the avalanche of corruption indulged in by the previous one, isn’t a concerted effort by the MSM to discredit them, then you’re as biased as they are.

🤖 So #ChatGPT wrote the first sentence of this @ElsevierConnect article. Any other parts of the article too? How come none of the coauthors, Editor-in-Chief, reviewers, typesetters noticed? How can this happen with regular peer-review? pubpeer.com/publications/CAA…

A genuine Tweet from my MP. It's difficult to believe how bad things have got in this country...
The UN, WHO and WEF are all working to the same goals and I don’t like them and I don’t think my constituents will either, which is probably why they are not getting much publicity in the legacy media.
Community note
This document is fake and not from UN:

The actual goals of the UN are published here: sustainabledevelopment.un.org/content/docume

Vallance's testimony at the COVID inquiry confirms my worst fears. How can it be that anyone (Johnson and no doubt others) can get through an Oxbridge education and be unable to understand simple statistical concepts like exponential growth and doubling times?

The latest Telegraph headline stack is like found poetry.
Truly you couldn't have dreamed up a better juxtaposition if you tried.
Doom, gloom, and hollow Brexit cheerleading. The perfect trifecta.
Magnificent.
