Warwickshire County Council now has an 18-year-old Reform Councillor in charge. Good luck everyone. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Now that’s just careless of Farage… keep losing Reform Councillors like that 🙄 “Have you looked down the side of the sofa Nigel❓ Are they in your pocket❓Think… where did you have them last❓” I hear Reform plan to make Councillors where AirTags in an effort to stop losing them 😂🤣

Reform would win most seats in an election an in depth poll suggests.. And yet today they lost another councillor - ‘true patriot’ Rob Howard, Reform head of Warwickshire County Council quit as he found it all too much work So he left the 18 year old he chose as deputy to run the whole council❗️ 🤦🏼‍♂️🙄

Nigel Farage, who claims to be on a mission to "defeat the establishment" and "fight for working people", is currently in central London promising to hand billions of pounds in tax cuts to some the wealthiest people in the world

Nigel Farage's new non-dom policy "would provide a very large and expensive tax windfall to a small number of very wealthy people who are already here... [that] would amount to £34bn of lost Government revenue over five years" taxpolicy.org.uk/2025/06/23/b...

Journalists at the Farage press conference repeating Reform's framing of this policy as "robin hood" because the non-dom fee will be redistributed to poorer workers, whilst missing the fact that it hands tens of billions of pounds in tax cuts to the wealthiest people already living in the UK

⚡️ Russia preparing military operations in Europe, Zelensky says, citing intelligence. "We are observing a continued intellectual decline within the Russian leadership and have evidence that they are preparing new military operations on European territory," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.

Reforms new MP, Sarah “Golden Bollox” Pochin exposed as liar🤥👇🏼 She claimed crimes were committed in houses of multiple occupation in Runcorn in a speech to HOP PCC Dan Price said "no evidence” was provided to Police of crimes in HMOs, & they were "not aware of any" Yup she’s a true Reform MP 🤷🏼‍♂️

UK businesses are setting up in Hungary to regain what Brexit threw away: ✅ Frictionless access to the EU ❌ No customs chaos ❌ No SPS checks Brexit Britain is so “global” that firms are relocating to stay competitive. You couldn’t make it up. www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-post-bre...

Oh excellent. Another think tank grifting for foreign money to buy our democracy and put Farage in No. 10 - via a pact with the unelectable Tory party, a manifesto modelled on Trump’s Project 2025 and the strong hope that - with helpful media cover - voters will be stupid enough to fall for it.

Hell of a chart, this, from @financialtimes.com. Spot the JCPOA. on.ft.com/4kSuQYO

Only 6 months after losing his puppet Assad in Syria and 5 months after signing the "Russia-Iran Strategic Scare the West" agreement, Putin loses another column in his terror coalition.

Still true: *Britain is a success story *Most of its cities are doing astonishingly well *Multiculturalism is popular *Mass immigration has not led to social disintegration *Nostalgia is increasingly weird *Britain is incredibly safe *Levels of social cohesion are high Don't let them gaslight you.

We will be properly honouring ‘Daniel Hannan Day’ on Tuesday with all the requisite pomp, circumstance & documentary evidence of what an irredeemable arse he is that you would expect. Elevating our world’s wrongest man to the House of Lords will always be the essence of Brexit. Do join us…

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Gaza: the grim reality of genocide The first comprehensive analysis of how Israel's war on Gaza will cause suffering for generations to come. A catalogue of the physical, mental & societal damage. Please have a read. It’s important. 👇 northeastbylines.co.uk/news/world-n...

Day after day, the Israeli government continues its project of the physical elimination of the population of Gaza. The world does nothing. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It took Netanyahu 29 years, but he finally found an American president who was itching to go to war with him against Iran.

Trump has moved from saying you need a photo ID to purchase groceries to barfing out a conspiracy theory that China sent people here with fake license *plates* they used to cast fraudulent votes. Anyway, this escaped dementia patient has the nuclear arsenal at his command, have a great weekend.

Every day, another deliberate massacre of starving civilians. Silence speaks louder than words. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

"Trump's message is plain. If you commit violence in his cause, he will have your back...America in 2025 is making political murder easier. This is a choice, not fate." My column. www.ft.com/content/e172...

Trump said yesterday that Putin should be allowed back into the G8. This was Putin’s response.

Every day. Deliberate massacres of unarmed, starving civilians. The world does nothing. A shame on all of us. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

1. The Tories knighted Kier Starmer for his work as Head of CPS in prosecuting grooming gangs. 2. Tories had 14 years to instigate an inquiry. 3. Starmer had instigated a rapid review AND instigated an inquiry in 10 months. 4. Grooming gangs are all Kier Starmer’s fault says Badenoch. 5. FFS.

Resignations, Cancelled Meetings and Culture Wars: How Reform UK Councils Are Descending Into Chaos Nigel Farage's band of newly-elected councillors are already starting to struggle, reports Josiah Mortimer Who would have guessed bylinetimes.com/2025/06/16/r...

BREAKING: Baroness Casey explains why she now backs a national inquiry

This is what fascism looks like - using a conspiracy theory about a dehumanized outgroup as a pretext for seizing political power and wielding arbitrary authority. What you read about in the history books is happening right here, right now.

I imagine all these jobs will go with AI

Chicago ✊

Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.

Trump continues to carry out his duties as Provincial Governor of West Russia.

‘When Starmer sees a problem he wants to solve it, instead of kicking it into the long grass. At last politics is no longer simply performative.’ East Anglia’s political diarist warms to the PM, calls out Badenoch’s hypocrisy, and more ⤵️ @eastangliabylines.co.uk @pecksniffsdiary.bsky.social

When does an 80 year old veteran in a wheelchair become a threat to an overly precious, preening, coward of of a President❓ When he’s protesting peacefully on Trump ‘s birthday 🤷🏼‍♂️🙄🤦🏼‍♂️

Jesus. The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...

The Minnesota assassinations, the attempted arson at Governor Shapiro's home, and the violent arrest of Senator Padilla are all straight out of the Jim Crow terrorism playbook. Same goes with cops aiming for journalists covering the ICE protests. None of these are new tactics, just a new iteration.

#Trump Regime are arresting elderly veterans now. 😡
