The only real benefit of Brexit was that the UK is 'Sovereign' this means it can essentially do whatever it likes within its own borders. For instance it can nationalise Thames Water and erase the debts without paying a penny and there is nothing that anyone can do. Do it.

Trump won by promising "No new wars" and "Ending the existing war in Ukraine". He's just started one, made the one in Ukraine worse and made working class people around the WORLD poorer with his tariffs. Can we stop voting for these people now please, they make things worse.

Showrooms for ugly, dangerous cars will fall quiet; galleries for gaudy, laughable art will have to reconsider their value propositions. But the rest of us might benefit, thanks to the property market.

A startling new report has reignited fierce national debate over the legitimacy of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, suggesting that voting systems across the country were secretly altered ahead of voting day—raising urgent questions about whether Kamala Harris was the rightful winner.

Nigel Farage got £750,000 from Coutts as compensation for nothing. Even worse Coutts is owned by NatWest which is 39% owned by you. So YOU paid Nigel Farage £292,750, for whining because he didn't have enough money for an account. RT if he needs to repay every penny.

If it was ok to blast "Biden too old!" all over the press, it is ok to blast "Trump too idiot!"

It's very handy how the Tories suddenly care now about an issue (they claim is a Labour one) that they could have at any time sought to investigate, resolve and learn from. Yes, the Starmer government has bungled recent response on this but what did ministers do for 14 years?

I see a lot of Conservative right wing Brexiters pointing out a number of factors behind British economic decline. Quite amazingly they omit the biggest factor, and the one they were responsible for. Brexit @anthonybarnett.bsky.social

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Senator Alex Padilla is one of the most decent people I know. This is outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful. Trump and his shock troops are out of control. This must end now.

Gibraltarians are happy. The UK govt is happy. The Spanish govt is happy. The EU is happy. Of course Reform and other Brexiters are very angry, because they value a fight with "Europe" over the well-being of the people of Gibraltar (and the UK & Spain). www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Cary López is a U.S. citizen. ICE agents violently detained her while she was visibly pregnant, pushing her hard enough to make her lose balance. This isn’t “law enforcement.” This is state violence. Against women. Against citizens.👇

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

I'm grateful that if I post that Stephen Miller is a hateful dickbag on social media, no one can fire me from MSW Media because I own it. I might not be your cup of tea, but thanks to all who support independent media 💙🙏

The thing about Greta Thunberg is she had the balls to get on a ship that Israel had already bombed. Don't need to hear from little genocide supporting maggots sitting behind keyboards who daren't even be in the same room as other people when they spout their horrific views.
