It isn't Farage exploiting the issue, it's the billionaire media that are exploiting the issue, Farage is their product.
From the article - In his BBC interview, Starmer said while he understood people’s concerns about migration, Reform and Nigel Farage were exploiting the issue as “the politics of grievance”".
We need a #MediaRevoltuion now.
The team that brought Adolescence & Mr Bates vs The Post brings The Hack, a series about phone hacking at the News of the World & the resulting Levinson inquiry.
Murdoch corrupted tabloids for political power & closed News of the World because of his staffs unlawful behaviour.
Press corruption has grown since Levinson 1.
Boris Johnson elevated Murdoch back into power & GB News have turned into GB Fox News.
We desperately need a #MediaRevolution
I know a lot of you still think of the #Fediverse as just “Mastodon”.
But it’s far more than that. There’s an entire ecosystem of federated message boards that’s already proven popular: #Piefed, #NodeBB, #Lemmy, #Mbin, and #Discourse.
Even the classics like #Friendica and #Hubzilla have solid forum features baked in.
If you’re only here for the microblogging, you’re missing a key piece. Communities built around interests are something #Twitter never offered, and #Bluesky still doesn’t.
So if you’re looking to replace your #Facebook Groups, the Fediverse already has you covered.
👀 Malignant media: “STOP THE MIGRANT INVASION.”
But the hidden truth is: migrants are forced to flee wars and land grabs that media fuels and conceals.
Christine (South Sudan): “Writing has given me a voice… it helps others in my community know they are not alone.”
When migrants have a platform, the narrative changes from hate to humanity.
This is just one of the #99Problems with the malignant media, and why we need a #mediarevolution for migrants.

We stand in unwavering solidarity with journalists everywhere who dare to uncover truth under fire—and we condemn, with full moral clarity, every attack against them.
Including the six journalists that were murdered in Gaza yesterday.

Amnesty International launches global campaign to protect UK protest rights after #PalestineAction arrests.
The Daily Mail, Telegraph, Sun & GB News corrupt editorial lines are pushing the UK government into use terrorism charges to criminalise the people who are 'calling out' the genocide in Gaza.
Another reasons why we need a #MediaRevolution
How big is the open social web, the #fediverse, #bluesky etc compared to the big commercial platforms? It's a bit sobering.
From my recent talk "From millions to billions -- a plausible narrative for how to grow the open social web."
In December last year the online audience for:
The Sun
The Express
The Daily Mail
The Telegraph
The Times
and
GB News
was 90 million.
A lot of this audience arrived at the source from social media links.
The Social Media barons are part of the malignant media network.

Ever heard of AMOC? A climate ticking time bomb being ignored.
Scientists warn that Atlantic circulation — which regulates weather across the globe — is faltering.
Collapse means:
❄️ Europe plunged into harsh winters
🌧️ African & Asian monsoons fail
🔥 Amazon rainforest droughts intensify
🌊 US east coast storms & flooding rise
The warnings are clear. The science is clear.
What’s missing? Media coverage.
