Spreading lies & stirring division Making wild promises that can’t be kept Crumbling when faced with real responsibility Reform party is 'UKIP' Reform party is 'Brexit party'

Marine Le Pen’s National Rally is once again being forced to bat down accusations of racist behavior following allegations that nine lawmakers from the far-right party were part of a Facebook group containing hateful messages.

"Trump is now reduced to acting as Putin’s press spokesman."

The United States has vetoed a U.N. Security Council resolution demanding a immediate and unconditional ceasefire in Gaza.

Two Tier Britain. Londoner's get local travel when they are 60 whereas up North we have to wait till State Pension age (66, 67 shortly. Are our taxes / NI contributions second class?

Failed COVID PPE contracts during the pandemic cost UK public purse £1.4bn. £762m lost - PPE over ordered and defective, delays in checking quality. Govt trying to recover £468m. But some got richer. Would govt snoop on their bank accounts, like it will on benefit claimants?

Perhaps the Government should launch a Defence Bond, like the War Bonds of old which offered a modest return and were considered a patriotic act. And raise the tax of the top tiers of society that have massively increased their wealth at the expense of the majority. news.sky.com/story/politi...

All those innocent Ukrainians who were just going about their daily business when Russia indiscriminately bombed their apartment buildings were just sitting there not bothering anyone too!!

This guy, Zia,is unelected. He can travel to Kent anytime but has no right to enter staff areas of council premises. I suspect the police 👮 may be called should anyone attempt anything DODGEY…

Farage still arguing for the fossil fuel industry is quite apt for a dinosaur. Carbon is our past not our future, UK must accelerate the move to renewables. Invest in new industries not pollution that only makes wealthy people even wealthier at everyone elses expense. Rely on gas = higher costs.

ICC sanctioned criminal Netanyahu should be arrested at the earliest opportunity and stand trial at The Hague for his war crimes. news.sky.com/story/former...

Strange that the Chancellor on the one hand thinks that state of the economy warrants raiding pensioner's wallets but the threat to the nation doesn't warrant the enriched top 10% paying more tax for the defence of the nation. 🤔 news.sky.com/story/strate...

It's important that those of us that hightlight the current Israeli regime's shameful genocide & ethnic cleansing of Palestinains also condemn acts of terrorism like this. news.sky.com/story/target...

Emma Monk - “Farage, leader of a party of just 5 MPs, has plans for the future & is making big promises - Lower taxes, Higher benefits > Sweeping Cuts. Behind those soundbites lies a financial black hole. Reform’s plans aren’t even remotely financially literate.” open.substack.com/pub/monkdebu...?

Nigel Farage has been savaged over his maths skills after newly release figures suggest the Reform UK leader's costings don't add up.

The Israeli regime, led by a wanted war criminal and backed by the felon in the Whitehouse, is conducting ethnic cleansing in the West Bank and that plus genocide in Gaza. Shamefully disregarding the Holocaust.

Since Scarborough Council was abolished and replaced by North Yorkshire Council the public gardens have been negelcted. The best colour now comes from the weed Valerian which itself competes with Brambles, Willow Herb and Sycamores to provide best cover for the rats nests.

To think that I used to actively support the Holocaust Memorial Day ... news.sky.com/story/inside...

Businesses really need to think carefully before connecting their core systems to the Internet. The best firewall is, and always will be an air gap. news.sky.com/story/nhs-tr...

The senior Tory gave her unfunded tax-slashing plans "9.5 out of 10".

Keir Starmer’s dad: a toolmaker Nigel Farage’s dad: a stockbroker @benkentish.bsky.social asks why the Reform leader is more popular with the working class than the PM, despite his privileged background.

We have a president who virtually never thinks rationally, logically, or even in sequential steps. Nor can he fully comprehend causes and effects. His base of knowledge on virtually all subjects relating to governance and economics and world affairs is minimal. (1/2)

Kent and Durham Councils - one of Reform’s first acts was to take down the Ukrainian flag They are traitors to democracy www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Wanted war criminal tries to deflect responsibilty for a terrorist attack onto those that condemn his regimes genocide of Palestinian civilians. Hang your head in shame Israel. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Net migration to UK down by half in 2024 compared with year before

‘The numbers aren’t hard to find. Why would nobody bother to look?’ @mrjamesob.bsky.social has a theory to explain ‘how on earth’ people didn’t know net migration has halved in a year.

When an extremist regime engages in genocide it invites condemnation. To then attempt to link that rightful condemnarion to a terrorist attack demonstrates how low this Israeli regime has sunk. Israel above any other nation on earth should know that their behaviour is beyond disgraceful.

China sends its regards .... news.sky.com/story/trump-...

Opening doors while firing the people behind them isn’t progress — it’s a PR stunt.
