London is facing a dark blizzard of disinformation, driven by extremist groups and hostile state actors. We can't ignore the damage it’s causing to our communities, safety and trust. It’s why London’s leading the way in tackling this threat, so I welcome the Government's announcement of a National Centre for Information Defence.

Thing is have said problem for Labour on size of individual donations. On the record in Parliament. If you can’t see trade unions and 6 million people giving collectively is different from one individual giving £6 million I can’t help you. Actually it’s £60m and rising you have taken from Harbourne but who is counting….the cost to British democracy is the same ….

This morning at 7:30am, a group of men dressed in black, their faces covered by balaclavas, gathered around the Limekiln roundabout in Dover. The men, members of the anti-migrant vigilante group Patriot Platform, proceeded to block the port of Dover and several roads nearby. Our briefing: hopenothate.org.uk/2026/09/0…

For Zeteo UK, @owenjonesjourno asks one of the most important questions about the Middle East and what happens next: zeteo.uk/p/if-israel-goes-to…

Shocking that he would get through any due diligence.

Tonight London stood with Berlin. Thousands gathered in Soho Square to stand with the LGBTQIA+ community in London and around the world. Extremists seek to divide us, but they will not succeed. Love will always be stronger than hate. 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

She fears a rise in anti-Jewish rhetoric as she herself ramps up anti-Muslim rhetoric (!)

1. There’s no evidence he is a Hamas terrorist 2. There’s no evidence he’s a Hamas colonel 3. Even if both of the above were true, which they are not, that’s still not justification for holding a human being for 18 months without charge and torturing him in detention. FFS.

Goodbye Ann. Such a nice kind lady. Not.

Clarification: Sky News was not at the property at 7.41am. As has already been acknowledged, and as shown in the footage from 10.19am, Sky News was outside a property where Mr Farage was registered to vote at the last election. Sky News did not interact with Mr Farage’s daughter. On a single occasion, we approached the property without a camera operator, identified ourselves as Sky News, and the adult occupant chose not to engage. We were seeking to contact Mr Farage to ask questions about the gift he accepted from Mr Cottrell. This is a well-established and routine journalistic practice when reporting on matters of legitimate public interest. The footage clearly demonstrates that Sky News did not “hound” or pursue Mr Farage’s daughter. At no stage did we seek to speak to anyone other than Mr Farage in connection with this story.

Online platforms play a central role in our democratic debate. They must also accept responsibilities that reflect that influence. Talking to @LBC about why we need stronger protections for our democracy in the digital age.

Happy 250th birthday, America 🇺🇸 ! We continue the struggle for a ‘more perfect union.’ And I continue to agree with James Baldwin: “I love America more than any other country in the world, and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.”

So you support the Israeli government goal of taking over all of Gaza and keeping it? A lot of words from you to distract from that key point.

The situation in Gaza is desperate. Today the UK is announcing £23m for @UNRWA to deliver vital support including food, water, education and medical support for Palestinian refugees. There must be more aid, all crossings opened, and humanitarian agencies able to operate safely.

A few weeks ago, Restore was celebrating 10 council wins like the dawn of a glorious future. “We are inevitable” spokesman Charlie Downes said as the party surpassed 120,000 members. But a series of strategic blunders and rifts have dented this optimism. hopenothate.org.uk/2026/06/3…

The French government could not be clearer. Here is the French Foreign Minister @jnbarrot saying France is “ready to open the door” of the EU to Britain. This follows similar statements by two of Macron’s former Prime Ministers — Barnier and Attal — in recent days.

According to @GoldmanSachs — “The Structural and Cyclical Costs of Brexit” by James Moberly and Sven Jari Stehn: 1️⃣ Britain has “notably underperformed other advanced economies since the EU referendum in June 2016” thanks to lower growth and higher inflation. 2️⃣ “Real UK GDP has fallen short of similar countries by about 5%” since the 2016 voter. 3️⃣ “UK goods trade has underperformed other advanced economies by around 15% since the Leave vote” 4️⃣ “Business investment has been weak since 2016, falling notably short of the pre-referendum trend” “The evidence points to a significant long-run output cost of Brexit.”
