It's taken the bank closure of a high-profile figure to expose banks' corporate bullying using EDI to impose narrow values on customers - or else. But words from the minister today were not enough. Why was the government so slow to act when issues were raised months ago? https://t.co/ElVXD5xR35

This from @danwootton takes a lot of courage. Regardless of what you think of @GBNEWS, attempts at its destruction, vicious demonisation of its employees & even firms who advertise on it, (often from other journalists), is a disgraceful & intolerant betrayal of media diversity.

Yesterday, I asked a quick question on crippling service charges for leaseholders. Surely the solution should be not more regulation, but more CONTROL for leaseholder home owners to hire and fire managing agents? https://t.co/X5uQu1ddde

I can't cheer loud enough. Bloody well done @AllianceLGB - you deserve this victory but should NEVER have been dragged through this 'process as punishment' ordeal.

And they're right to slam it. #OnlineSafetyBill starts final stages in Lords tomorrow. It really is a huge threat to YOUR right to privacy &amp; to free speech. Myself &amp; @danielmgmoylan will oppose most censorious sections but the louder the clamour outside parliament, the better.

Same as @brexithenrik We both suspected political, but couldn't prove Then I saw what happened to @SpeechUnion / @UsforThemUK &amp; looked into politicised banks' value- statements, dominated by EDI orthodoxies, which banks themsleves state if breach can justify closing down accounts

Openly admitting contempt for democracy in here, as though their righteousness trumps voters' decisions. Dangerous arrogance.

Agree with @Danjsalt here. Lots of gleeful snide sneering. I'm no Johnson fan, but I am a supporter of the aspirations of millions who voted for him in 2019. And the populist revolt of 2016 & demand for political realignment, will not be satisfied by technocrats- Sunak or Starmer
RT @Danjsalt: All the people smugly laughing about Johnson miss a few things

1. He will likely be back
2. Brexit is unlikely to be reversed

The government's #StrikesBill means those who legally vote to strike, complying with laws already in existence, can be forced to strike-break. Minister asks us to trust bosses' discretion to be fair/not harsh in how they punish anyone who fails to comply. I won't hold my breath.
