Cherish free speech but not abuse or cruelty. Mental health matters. We live in challenging times so we mustn’t let the search for the ideal, distract us from overcoming the bad.

Thank you Private Eye!

Farage claimed in his speech today that he would raise £65 *billion* by cutting climate policies, DEI schemes, and ‘Quangos’. He’s not running a serious operation and every political journalist in the country has a public duty to shout that from the rooftops

What’s REALLY at stake…👇 Are you paying ATTENTION, yet?! 🤚

The gulf between what London is actually like & how it is portrayed by terminally online, self-styled ‘patriots’ & their political heroes is absolutely incredible. I wonder how much it has to do with the city repeatedly electing a Muslim mayor… www.timeout.com/london/news/...

As if it were not sufficiently ironic that the self-purported guardian of democracy is now headed by an authoritarian government leading the world back to fascism, but its most favoured nation is conducting a genocide which is seeks to excuse by invoking the historical genocide of its own people.

“Sorry, we don’t have enough money for universal healthcare, we’re too busy paying people whose family members tried to overthrow the federal government”

Chris Murphy: "Why did Trump choose these 3 countries to go for his first major foreign trip? It's not because these are our most important allies or the most important countries in the world. It's because these are the 3 countries willing to pay him off ... this is the definition of corruption."

There's no Universe wherein a near-illiterate, book-banning, education-destroying, rapist needs a 747 for his 'library'.

Trump doesn't have “conflicts of interest” anymore. A “conflict of interest” sounds like an unfortunate situation where Trump might choose his own interests over the nation’s. But Trump isn’t conflicted about anything. He's the most corrupt president in American history.
