Pensions rising by a miserly 6.7%. Disabled benefits rising by 1.7%. But, inflation running at 3%, Energy bills set to rise by 7%, Council Tax bills going up by 10% and water bills rising by 33%, come April. Care to comment, @teamlabouruk.bsky.social? #RIPOffBritain

🚨FACTS AND TRUTH MATTER If you still agree with this principle please watch & share this FACT CHECK widely youtu.be/HpmDquOkSCY?...

The parallels between Adolf Hitler's disabling and then dismantling a Democratic German government and Donald Trump's plans to do the exact same in the United States are frighteningly similar.

Go the Hell, Asshole! Signed, every Canadian.

No one has done more to sell out Britain than “patriot” Nigel Farage. No one has done more to sell out farmers and fishermen than farmers-and-fishermens’ champion Nigel Farage. No one has treated the voters of Clacton with more contempt than Clacton MP Nigel Farage.

What's going on in BD12 (Low Moor), @northernpowergrid.bsky.social? We've got lights flickering like we're all in a nightclub!

Keir Starmer Urged to Back Law Blocking Foreign Billionaires Like Elon Musk From Bankrolling UK Political Parties bylinetimes.com/2025/02/12/k...

NEWS! Original ‘Gulf of America’ found between ears of orange imbecile

In #HeartUnions week let’s remember that without trade unions & the workers willing to back them with strike action when needed we wouldn’t have • a minimum wage • maternity & paternity rights • pension provision • holiday & sickness entitlements victories which have benefited every one of us

Now over 100,000 signatures! By almost every economic and financial measure Brexit has been disastrous for the UK - now let’s have that debate and an honest and open discussion about this petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Since you haven't reached the stage of branding it, just a suggestion @serailway.bsky.social? #tsw5

Brexit was a con. Sold on a pack of lies by fantasists, ladybird libertarians, chancers, xenophobes and spivs. On this day of all days we should take a moment to remind everyone of that.

All of these arrests and deportations, in the US, come over very much like "what would Adolf Hitler do"! #OrangeManBaby

Really pleased to see you're taking #StormÉowyn seriously, @northernpowergrid.bsky.social! Just one request; could you try sending out emails about storms, before they happen and not 12 hours after they've gone, in future 😂

Issued at 10am, for Northern Ireland and Central & South Western parts of Scotland. #redweatherwarning

Where would we be, without the latest #GTA6 rumour! This week's appears to be news that there might be "early access" for those who pre-order! I expect #BossManEffTheWorld will be making at least a dozen videos from it...

It’s all a bit this, isn’t it?

Stunning! #LibertyCityPreservationProject #WorldTravel #GTA5StoryMods

OK, this wasn't expected 😳 #uksnow

MPs and peers could be forced to submit to criminal record checks under proposals submitted by a new Labour MP Many local authorities already run DBS checks on elected officials but it's not standard practice in parliament news.sky.com/story/parlia...

Without trade unions & the workers willing to back them with strike action when needed we wouldn’t have • a minimum wage • maternity & paternity rights • pension provision • holiday & sickness entitlements victories which have benefited every single person in this country

36% on water bills, to pay for upgrade work that the regional companies took loans out to pay for; money which they gave away in dividends and bonuses, instead! #LetTheBastardsPayForItThemselves! #Ofwat

Pensioners forced to use bucket as a toilet, persistent problems with the sewage system that Severn Trent Water failed to address. Owned by private equity, banks, insurance co.; has 62 criminal convictions. Paid £300m dividend, CEO collected £3.2m pay. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Economy shrinks by a further 0.1% Brexit has cut UK trade by up to 15%... Immigration is much higher post Brexit But..the...boats🙄 WAKE UP and smell the roses...or take your kids' future further into the mire. Then explain how poor we all are in 20 years time Apart from the super rich of course

If that disgusting racist and grifting liar Nigel Farage shouldn't have been on Question Time even once, nevermind 38 times. Give this a Like, or better yet a RP.

Some of us aren't hypocrites, are we #NaztiParty 🙄

Nobody's suggesting that the current set up is fair, but it strikes me that means testing has been introduced in a hurry and is likely to cause genuine hardship to those who will just miss out on the payment as a result. It should've been implemented from April 2025.

“Obviously there will be no return to freedom of movement, the customs union or the single market” says Prime Minister Keir Starmer at #PMQs In other news the OBR report the Gov’t keeps quoting from says Brexit is on course to cut UK trade by a staggering 15%. Hiding from it won’t make it go away

Still £10, 50 years after introduction; making it practically worthless, now (in 2024)! #DWPChristmasBonus @peterstefanovic.bsky.social chng.it/yzYgJKbstd

New video just landed! Finally, a funny one, though it was challenging… Pointless Petitions, Ketamine Karen & Why It’s Hard To Satirise An Information War youtu.be/xCA75-9RtkI

British workplaces rank among the worst in Europe for long hours, tight deadlines & limited autonomy, without being any more productive, according to a report produced for the Commission for Healthier Working Lives www.reuters.com/world/uk/uk-...

We hate to say we told you so, #brexidiots!
