Welcome to series two of #ToppleUncaged!
Every week, The Canary will be bringing you an innovative podcast for the media landscape; hosted by me, Steve Topple.
You’ll get my quick fire round-up of the news in Topple’s Twittering. Then, I’ll be going in on a story or campaign you may have missed, with a very special guest, on Free Flying With… After that, you get to have your say on the week’s talking points in Twitter Chirps Back. And finally, I’ll be bringing you the freshest, most banging political music in Revolutionary Bird Song.
This week’s guests? Disability rights activist Paula Peters talking about the #DumpMetroDWPLies campaign and Ross from the UK’s hottest rap duo Too Many T’s.
Enjoy!

Chicken coup 4.0 is underway people. We knew they’d have one last go before a general election. Last chance to keep the left out of govt. We’ve been here before.

Labour MPs attacking The Canary – an independently regulated, trust-stamped news org – on behalf of a racist MSM & people who back a racist regime in Israel. While calling us & our readers the racists.
You couldn’t make it up.
Good job we work for the people, not them. Onward.— Kerry-Anne Mendoza 🏳️🌈🍉 (@TheMendozaWoman) June 28, 2019
The major benefit of burning bridges with the MSM. You can be true to your principles at all times and never risk losing a gig for it. Haven’t regretted it for a day 😂❤️
