By media not holding leaders accountable. Think about how many right wing talking points have become mainstream over the last few years.

If you think #ElonMusk isn't hurt by the #Tesla boycott, then why is #Trump doing this? Keep going.

40% of American steel is sourced from Canada. Good luck America 🤦‍♀️ apnews.com/live/trump-p...

I found it! Here's the government waste all wrapped up into 1 person, this grifting, thieving illegal immigrant welfare queen. Defund the Department of Dumbassery & Duochery!!!

I know that Nigel Farage's KGB identifier (Zhaba) means "Toad" Would anyone like to guess what agent #Krasnov stands for? Nothing - it means absolutely nothing. Much like Trump himself. And they say Russians have no sense of humour.

The people calling for a retirement age of 70 are the same people who won’t employ anyone who’s over 50.

Interesting what happens when migration is looked at in a positive light. If only the UK would be so forward thinking instead of fighting a political war with reform.

Poorest fifth in England pay 4.8% of income in council tax; richest fifth 1.5%. 27% real term cut in council funding since 2010, govt hand tax cuts to corporations/rich. Poor hit with regressive taxes VAT Fuel duty Wages taxed at higher rates than dividends, capital gains. Need tax justice.

Ukraine presses Europe to nominate representative for Russia talks: Ukraine is urging Europe to quickly select a representative for potential talks with the U.S. and Russia on ending Kyiv's war with Russia. “It should be a quickly made decision,” Igor Zhovkva, the deputy head of Ukrainian President…
