The Conservative Party has come under fire for a series of misleading posts on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. Critics argue that these posts distort historical and recent events, causing public confusion and misrepresentation.
One of the contentious posts features an image of people queuing outside the former Northern Rock bank with the caption, “Face to face banking last time Labour were in charge.” The post implies a direct correlation between Labour’s governance and the bank run. However, it omits critical context.
