youtu.be/7if99iz88Zo?... This is insane. Watch it all the way through. This is a senator. The USA is no longer a democracy. This is obscene.

Meanwhile on YouTube (the Google/Alphabet platform), the Israeli government is literally paying to push this advert, calling Starmer a murderer of British families for 'supporting Hamas'. The UK government should be taking action, not nothing off these companies.

She's spending money. Not enough money but too much money - on the right things which are the wrong things. She's not raised tax but did raise some tax before, but it was the wrong tax and the right one! And she won't rule out ever raising any taxes again any time ever! But...
