I’m sure the “protect our women and girls” brigade will have plenty to say about this👍🏼 There are indeed some parts of our society that don’t treat women properly… Here is a former TORY Councillor (and 5 OTHER men) charged with the rape and sexual assault of HIS WIFE 🧵 1/10

Imagine the fury from The Times if Just Stop Oil had caused "hours-long queues"... I bet they would have found someone in the ski queue who was trying to get to their Mum in hospital.

Wow @thetimes.com, that’s impressive An entire article about “freak heat” in the Dolomites causing mayhem amongst skiers without once mentioning climate change…🤷🏼‍♀️ 🧵 1/5

This is quite the thread, and worth reading even if you know all the cancelling Christmas claims are rubbish. The details are, as they say, important. 🎄

A chuckle a skeet. Emma's excellent second part of her dive into rumours that "They"(tm) are cancelling Christmas 🎅

Wonderful thread about the UK media's rocket propelled outrage generation this winter festive season ... and no, I don't mean "Christmas" when I consider that to be a full three months of my year! 🧣🧤☔☃️🌲🎁💜 Do read 👇

Another must-read debunking from Emma. Worth bookmarking to counter any "They're cancelling Christmas" outrage you come across.

There must be a national award that we nominate Emma for, this is masterful debunking, as usual. 💯

If you read one thread this Christmas, make it this one. Especially if you are an angry Daily Mail reader

I really enjoy Emma’s structured debunking of the “you are not allowed to say Christmas” anymore. But surely Mail readers are capable of open eyes and ears? It is literally impossible to avoid Christmas. Every single high street has decorations up, every shop blaring out Christmas music. /1

Lovely titbit from @monkemma.bsky.social Here’s Washington Irving complaining about that very thing over 200 hundred years ago. Some things just don’t change.

Part 2 of “cHriStMaS oUtRaGe!!!” from the excellent @monkemma.bsky.social 👑 Useful advice, but honestly - don’t waste Christmas on people who need to hear it. Spend it with lovely people who deserve you. 🎄 open.substack.com/pub/monkdebu...

OK, strap in…. Here is part 2 of the “Tesco/(insert other brand) are cancelling Christmas” claims! 🎄🎅🤶🎄 TL:DR? Christmas is alive and well everywhere you look. And so too, sadly, is manufactured Christmas rage baiting. Here is just 7 day’s worth of Daily Mail Christmas Rage bait 🧵 1/31

A white British father and son BOTH raped the same child and pled guilty to multiple counts of Sexual assault. This has been in the press for 2 days. The Mirror is the only National newspaper to report on it… And THAT’s why people have such a skewed perception of the links between race and SA🤷🏼‍♀️

Said it before and I'll say it again, Emma is really good at this stuff.

Another great autopsy by the brilliant Emma Monk. 👏 #fakenews #telegraph

Needless to say, the teacher was not banned *because* they told a Muslim child that Britain is a Christian country🙄 I mean that was *one* of the things he said And he was banned *after* several incidences So technically the headline is true, but that’s not the actual story! 🧵 1/12

Oh good - another “immigration special” question time. Broadcast from Dover. With Zia Yusuf - of course🙄 I wonder what they’ll talk about? 🧵 1/3

Great thread. Emma is brilliant at carefully researched, fact based debunking of nonsense.

Emma not only dismantles the dross spouted by Sarah Vine with consummate ease, but shines a light on the default right wing tactic of scapegoating, oh, and the reduction in small boat crossings conveniently ignored by the gutter press.

If you haven’t noticed this up to this point, now you won’t be able to avoid identifying it everywhere

She shoots, she scores. Emma is really good at this. Also, the former Mrs Gove appears to be kept by the EU-domiciled, tax evading aristocrat that owns a significant disinformation platform. Like so many "contrarians." Poshboy's pets. One and all.

Follow Emma. These debunking threads are just absolutely brilliant.

In a surprise to absolutely no one, the mum she’s describing is not claiming benefits as a “lifestyle choice”. This paywalled article is full of “in my grandparents day, blah blah blah” and nasty sneery comments about latest iPhones for spoilt children🙄 🧵 1/9

It's impossible not to love the clarity Emma provides. How will he possibly survive these horrific taxes on his millions?

This is what I love about social media. A story in a paper that you know doesn't add up, but you dont know how to work it out. So along comes Emma and explains it all for you. Yet again sterling work and much appreciated.

Emma Monk is a real force of good, debunking the swamp of poor quality propaganda passed off as journalism. Give her a follow (and a Ko-Fi tip!)

Can’t remember budget ‘case studies’ ever being quite so funny. Especially in newspapers that recently anointed Liz Truss a fiscal genius.

Read the thread. Marvel at the astonishing inability to read the room which persuaded this chap he would win hearts and minds by exposing his greed for all to see. Well done @monkemma.bsky.social You are a star

The Telegraph only wants you to read the headlines. Emma does a deep dive and things don't add up. Funny that.....

This is another great 🧵🧵👏👏👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

Financial Adviser here: This is a terrible retirement plan.

Do not miss this superb thread from Emma Monk, which - amongst other things - demonstrates the parlous state of our lying media. #Leveson2 please.

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement. Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph Because this does NOT add up! No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies… 🧵1/9

I'm with @monkemma.bsky.social on this one. "I doubt Jesus would have minded plastic Tesco trees being called snowy pine cone trees, but he may well have been disturbed by the racism and anti-migrant rhetoric around at the moment." open.substack.com/pub/monkdebu...

@monkemma.bsky.social consistently reminds us what digital literacy looks like. monkdebunks.substack.com/p/no-tesco-h...

Indeed! Thanks @marvth3martian.bsky.social for the suggestion This is definitely an interesting one that I think is causing some Right wing heads to explode!🤯 🧵 1/16

Can anyone help me understand what this means in reality? @danneidle.bsky.social, you’re a sensible nonpartisan voice🙏🏼 He is already resident in Switzerland and has property in Dubai and is buying up more development land there. In what way is he NOW “quitting” the UK and why?

Ok, that made me laugh! 😂

If you're not following Emma yet, I recommend that you start now. The threads can be on the longish side, but they're all worth the time. Well researched, meticulously backed up, debunking some of the most bizarre outrage with good old-fashioned common sense.

Emma's perpetual debunking is the kind of renewable energy we can all get behind! 👏

This is a wonderful thread! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Emma not only documents - in great detail - how BS is spread by the right-wing media, but does it with humour.

Tesco have BANNED Christmas trees (No they haven’t) Great thread from Emma highlighting the idiocy of the “they’ve banned Christmas” brigade

Emma's BBC (Big Beautiful Christmas) thread. A marvellous piece of work, and a joy at any time of the year. *This week only: a FREE calendar on post #21!* Summary from the right-wing press and media: “May your days be merry and bright, and may all your Christmases be white." Glorious. Read in full

Wonderful thread from Emma on the right wing's annual "They're cancelling Christmas" rage-fest. It's all so ridiculous.

Excellent thread by @monkemma.bsky.social, but honestly, what could be more traditional at Christmas now in the UK than the weird arse stories claiming that "Christmas has been cancelled".

Calmly debunking the crazy stories as ever

Me, "Endless screaming!!!!" Emma, calmly at comprehensively, "This is nonsense, and here is why."

Whole thread, but I love this calendar 😆

The whole thing reads like a plot for an episode of Colin from Portsmouth - @explodingheads.bsky.social are you listening? - but @monkemma.bsky.social has done the hard yards endangering her sense of reality so that we don't have to, so thank you!
