Pulp Fascism

No surprise here. Felon 47 is the reason Covid became a global pandemic.

"A US senator is apparently calling for a government... to bomb a boat carrying food to a starving population." @premthakker.bsky.social reports on Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham seemingly threatening activist Greta Thunberg who's currently on a boat filled with aid heading toward Gaza.

Since becoming an MP, Nigel Farage has managed to fit in nine trips to the US, has held down twelve jobs, which earned him nearly £1million, but has been too busy to hold any surgeries for people in Clacton who actually voted for him.

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

Liz Truss is going to be the benchmark for political and economic failure for the rest of her life and beyond. What a legacy.

The GOP’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is Robin Hood in reverse: it takes from the poor to give to the rich.SNAP (used to be Food Stamps…which Tabby and I used back in 1972) is gone. Medicare is going.

New deputy leader of Leicestershire County Council, shared homophobic, sexist & Islamophobic social media content Leicestershire news reports👇🏼 Would it surprise you to learn he’s a Reform Party member❓ Me neither.. it really doesn’t bode well for female, LGBTQ or Muslim local Govt employees etc❗️🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

While government dithers over combating 'grooming gangs', organised paedophilia remains widespread – and largely ignored.

Financial crime in the UK. $2trn to $5.5trn dirty money laundered globally. 40% through the UK, its Crown Dependencies, Overseas Territories. Govt can take out Unexplained Wealth Orders (UWOs) to chase crooks. 2017-2025: 7 UWOs, none since 2019, no prosecutions. Laws not enforced on the City.

‘…over 66,000 badgers have been destroyed since 2014…’ Badgers are a protected species. They take the brunt of a broken, cruel, dishonest, corrupt food production system. @npwsireland.bsky.social are not fit for purpose. #badgers #nature www.thejournal.ie/badger-culli...

What's ironic about this is that if Trump hadn't threatened to take over Greenland and instead had just criticised Denmark and advocated for independence, he may have had a good chance of getting a deal. Instead he alienated everyone and Greenland embraced Europe instead.

Interesting how the BBC chose her Musk affiliated X profile picture to report this rather than her police mugshot. That and the use of the word "row" helps craft a more sympathetic narrative that actually aids those trying to project her as some sort of matyr.

Anti-immigration hysteria never works out well for farmers, what happened in Britain is now happening in the USA on a larger scale:

The "big, beautiful bill" is a big, ugly, disgusting mess. Here's why.

Yet another scandal of Brexit!

The Court of Appeal recently upheld a ruling in favour of the human rights campaign group Liberty, which found that the previous Government had acted unlawfully when it sought to significantly lower the threshold for serious disruption. Will the Government accept the judgement? Still silence

‘The Draconian Anti-Protest Laws That Are the Real Threat to Free Speech in the UK’ A new report calls on the Government to ‘look again’ at repealing laws passed under the last Conservative Government

With about a month to go until any vote on government’s cuts to disability support it’s not too late for the Prime Minister to change course. I’m joining Trussell in calling on the government to rethink its cruel & irresponsible plan. This is how you can help👇 action.trussell.org.uk/disability-cuts

In our entire history only one President got our credit downgraded in both his terms AND got us added to the Human Rights Watch List.

I've created this list of hundreds of Rejoiners. Please share it. Rejoin is a grassroots movement opposed by the political establishment and almost the entire media. Let's trash the legacy of Farage, Johnson, Murdoch, and Vladimir Putin. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Israel and Gaza today. #Eurovision supporting genocide. Fuck them

U.S. Military Bans Men With Girl Names From Combat

If second-term Trump does actually get a nuclear accord with Iran, which actually prevents war with Iran, many - including on the left - will want to credit & praise him. And yet we are only on the brink of war because first-term Trump tore up Obama’s nuclear deal with in 2017!

A former FBI special agent is currently out on $100,000 bond after being arrested for attempting to expose what he described as a covert Russian intelligence campaign to gain influence over leading American tech figures—namely Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. kyivinsider.com/fbi-agent-go...

“For the bottom 60% of U.S. households, a "minimal quality of life" is out of reach, according to the group, a research organization focused on improving lower earners' economic well-being.” The fuck www.cbsnews.com/news/cost-of...

Widow, 72, charged £330 by British Gas HomeCare to tighten leaky tap. People fleeced everyday by corporations and their execs living in leafy suburbs - just look at energy, water, rail, mail, banking, insurance, transport, internet. Politicians punish the poor, old, sick and disabled.

Despite what the Government says, this is a huge win for civil liberties campaigners Britain's protest laws remain unfit for purpose, but a significant plank of the last govt's anti-protest laws has been shattered This Labour govt never should have defended it www.theguardian.com/law/2025/may...

Farage and Reform whip up people’s prejudices, then offer to get rid of what they hate.Their power feeds off ignorance and hatred. They make people angrier about the stuff they fear, then promise to fix it. Of course they won’t. But they know who to tell you to blame when they fail. (Letters, Times)

It's not just Russia, and the sooner US democratic voters accept that, the sooner they'll be able to regain control of the democratic party and remove foreign influence from Israel and other states that enable fascism and protect Trump. Stop being doormats.

Peter Dutton commends the police for their hard work "fighting against neo-Nazism". The Police: #auspol

Organisers of the London marathon show more leadership than the government. And should be applauded for doing so. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/athlet...

The US Navy's new Director of Communications, Kristina Wong, is a Jan 6 terrorist and an anti-Ukraine, pro-Kremlin mouthpiece. Likely an unregistered foreign agent (spy).

The IMF forecasts a major slowdown in the global economy due to Trump’s tariffs. UK likely to be hit harder than the rest of Europe. How TF is going cap in hand to the same guy to ask for some crappy not-worth-the-paper-it’s-written-on trade deal a sane solution? Come on UK. Work it out.
