Hey British media, It’s no surprise that if you give Farage the run of the place, he’ll start winning. Time to do your actual jobs and start interrogating him on his Brexit shitshow, his funding, his Trumpiness, his idiotic manifesto, his real plans for the NHS… instead of drumrolling him into No.10

😮‍💨

“The Chancellor sparked anger when she revealed that govt wants to enable young people from Europe and UK to work and travel overseas” FFS. What ‘Brexit freedom’ exactly is being betrayed here? The freedom to NOT be free to work and travel overseas? One of the stupidest front pages I’ve ever seen.

From the European Union on Trump's America 😮‍💨 www.instagram.com/reel/DHBQtgB...

I told you he was a clueless bullshitter… A man educated way beyond his intelligence.

The former leader of Reform UK in Wales will stand trial next year, accused of accepting bribes to make statements in the European Parliament that would benefit Russia. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Let’s keep reposting this to annoy the insufferable idiot that she is!

Plans afoot to revive community in Huddersfield

Less than 24 hours before the attack he was searching the internet for podcasts by the misogynistic influencer Andrew Tate. Nigel Farage has praised the misogynist influencer Andrew Tate for being an “important voice” for the “emasculated” and giving boys “perhaps a bit of confidence at school”

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Ukraine gave up nuclear arms (Belarus, Kazakhstan, South Africa too) in 1996. Received security guarantees from US, Russia, UK, France, China. Russia attacked it, US wants its wealth, China is silent, UK/France can't defend it. What are security guarantees worth? More countries will go nuclear.

As we welcome the news that the UK will support Ukraine with a £2.26bn loan… Here’s your reminder that the Conservatives wasted £9.9bn on unusable or defective PPE Never forget their staggering corruption and incompetence.

👏

This weeks cover from @theneweuropean.bsky.social was spot on as always

Every single one of the Trump supporters sounds like a domestic abuser. "You should've let him hit you, you shouldn't have complained in public, you're never grateful, you never say thank you."

I think this is the closest many of us have ever got to seeing the real Trump. The only consistent thread in his entire unhinged rant was the love & praise for Vladimir Putin. Zelensky has more courage & dignity in his little finger than every member of Trump's regime & fan club combined.

King Charles who loves killing foxes, birds, and badgers has been made Patron of the RSPCA. King Charles used his power to block a ban on Fox Hunting and to make sure it is the joke ban we currently have. RT if the RSPCA should remove him.

These are brown shirts, and this is Nazi behavior. We are not in a fight between right and left anymore. This is a fight between Americans and those who would bend the knee to a king. If you care about the soul of this country, we have to stand for each other.

From the Washington Post yesterday 😡🤬😡

This is why the US officials went to Ukraine, to demand 50% of mineral assets. Musk is effectively running AMERICA.

As if it’s up to America to decide the fate of democratic Ukraine by conducting negotiations with Russia without Ukraine. Yet another betrayal of democracy by this pro-Putin Trump regime.

Amazing woman, moving interview @channel4news.bsky.social #kanyaking #mobo

Rachel Reeves looks to have been a bit silly but for journalists of a certain age to profess outrage at creative expenses claims turns hypocrisy in to an art form. When I started out, one legendary character was reputed to have put a son through Eton via bogus receipts. But my favourite story...

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

Blood drops to freezing reading this paragraph : Yes, in an unexpected plot twist, Netanyahu seems to have found himself aligned with the people making fascist salutes and promoting the forcible displacement of an entire people into designated camps. Ironic

Susie gets it.

If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it We cannot allow them to rewrite history. If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely youtu.be/MUrf7addcTA?...

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance. Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

Why do wrong-doing benefit claimants need special rather than general punishments? Why not same for tax dodgers? And when someone has been caught doing cash-in-hand shifts do you really want to make it impossible for them to find a proper job & get off benefits? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Word of the day is ‘catch-fart’ (17th century: an obsequious individual who will always follow the political wind.

Lord Anderson, "Would the minister agree that any benefits from a trade deal with the US is a fraction of what we have lost from leaving the European Union under Brexit" Lord Leong, "The US is our single largest trading partner" Not true 42% of UK trade with the EU, 15% with the US
