MPs blast death threats as newspaper headlines branded 'a kind of fascism'
https://news.sky.com/story/mps-blast...scism-11176782

Well if you are going to use social media that is your own look out. As for the news papers their sales have been falling year on year so what do they do? Yes hard hitting headlines in order to make you buy them. You lot have the power to do something about it so why don't you?

Because wealth and the means to achieving it often lead to corruption and bias.

The Liberal Democrats have been fined £18,000 for breaking spending rules in last year's EU referendum.
The Electoral Commission said the party had "failed to deliver a complete and accurate spending return".
Proper receipts and invoices were not provided for 80 payments worth more than £80,000, the watchdog said.

Online trolls who sent abusive emails to Tory MP Anna Soubry and her fellow Brexit rebels have been confronted by Sky News.

Ms Soubry has submitted a 35-page dossier of threats of violence made against her to House of Commons Speaker John Bercow.

The document includes emails and Twitter posts, many of which call for the Broxtowe MP to be hanged for treason.

Why is SKY News doing this? It's down to these MP's to take action and i think "death threats" falls under hate crimes. So these MP's should contact the police.

It will be good to see the return of the original blue-coloured passport.

Quote:

British passports will change from burgundy to blue after Britain leaves the EU, the Home Office has said.

Immigration Minister Brandon Lewis said he was delighted to return to the "iconic" blue and gold design which came into use almost 100 years ago.

The new passports will be issued to those renewing or applying for a passport from October 2019.

Burgundy passports were first issued in 1988. The EU has never compelled the UK to change the colour of its passport.

Former UKIP leader Nigel Farage responded to the announcement by tweeting "Happy Brexmas!"

He added: "In the 2016 referendum, we wanted our passports back. Now we've got them back!"

But Labour MP Mary Creagh tweeted: "No-one under 45 will have owned a blue passport, and most will think they're not worth £50 billion and crashing the economy."

Mr Lewis told BBC Radio 4's Today programme he knew many Remain voters who still had an "attachment" and "speak fondly" of the blue passport.
