"Nein, Frau Weidel, wir sind nicht neutral! Wir sind auf der Seite der Ukraine. Das sind die Menschen, hinter denen wir stehen!" Unabhängig davon, wie man zu den einzelnen Kandidaten steht: Für mich persönlich war das die Schlüsselsequenz im #Quadrell.

“Russia has not achieved its military goals, its economy is under immense pressure, and combat losses continue to grow. […] Now is not the time to ease this pressure”, - former NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg

Only the richest 4% of people pay Inheritance Tax. Only the richest 1.5% of farmers will pay HALF Inheritance Tax spread over 10 years. This is a protest funded by the obscenely wealthy who want to pay no tax at all.

All of the Palestinian hostages are released in this condition, yet the Media says nothing, and they weren't even living under a famine caused by blockading food. So there is no excuse.

Are there people claiming benefits who shouldn't be? YES! King Charles, MP's, billionaires businesses like Amazon, Shell, BP... Lets crackdown on them.

Aware that I'm about to sound 350 years old: Gay people should learn our fkn history. Without trans women, black trans sex workers, and drag queens, THERE'S NO STONEWALL RIOT and LGBT+ rights. We owe our rights to our solidarity. Our strength is in not letting one "letter" get picked off. Wake up.

Move over Lexit, here comes Leform. Sounds like its latest desperate bid to obliterate itself, Labour plan to stomp all over Reform territory. The fact that it will A) Validate the abhorrent things Reform stand for and B) Alienate every other group of voters seems utterly lost on them. Bye bye.

When will Govt learn you can’t out-Reform Reform - you end up simply legitimising their toxic narrative. To see off populists, Labour needs to invest in public services & local communities, making a real difference to people’s lives - levy a wealth tax & use it to improve people’s lives *now*

How not to deal with a bully. Times cartoon sums it up well.

They want to leave the ECHR because it will allow them to abolish the State Pension, the Minimum Wage, and paid holiday and sick leave. It would make them tens of billions a year. But of course they say immigration, because they can't tell you the real reason.

Spain stopped supplying Israel with weapons, recognised Palestine and will arrest Netanyahu. ¡Viva España!

OTD in 1970 West Germany & USSR signed their 1st major gas deal. Less then 2 years after Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, it's part of 🇩🇪 gvt tradition of not caring that eastern Europeans live in dictatorships provided cheap fossil fuels flow. A the time FDR said...

Anna Soubry, "Brexit would be a disaster for the future of our country" Vince Cable, "There is no deal better than the one we have" Caroline Lucas, "Brexit would make our poorer communities even poorer" Throwback to the 2018 People's Vote March

❗️🇩🇪German Foreign Minister Baerbock left a government meeting, refusing to be photographed with Scholz after his decision to block the allocation of a new aid package to 🇺🇦Ukraine, — Bild

“After being thrown out of the family home, my GP also cut me off, telling me I would never be allowed to see my medical notes again.”

30 years ago Spitting Image dared to broadcast the truth about Israel. Now no one dares.

This is gonna be fun…

If only all Badgers could sleep easy. The badger cull still rages on in 2025, it’s a disgrace. Please ✍️ the petition to end the cull today: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Shame on the government. It’s 2025 and the bloody Badger cull (that does not work to tackle TB) is still happening! How are we still having to fight this?!

This is the outcome of the Badger cull, it must end.

The Badger cull must end. Repost if you agree! ✍️ the petition: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go' by Wham was released nearer to the end of the Second World War than to today. Happy New Year everyone!

It's weird how time works. It's already 2025 in Polynesia, in the USA it's still 2024 but in Russia it's 1951. #HappyNewYear

Starmer and Reeves asking UK regulators for ideas to boost economic growth Is like Boris Johnson appointing Jacob Rees-Mogg as minister of Brexit opportunities I guess this is Labour's turn at wasting time looking for the benefits of Brexit 🤷‍♂️

Liz Truss’ roast potato recipe is a great explainer for British politics 2016-2024. Aggressively contrarian, determinedly simplistic, objectively wrong. A masterpiece.

Why do people still act surprised when Russians demonstrate lack of respect for human life? Does anyone really think the state and people who butchered Bucha think twice about letting a few inconvenient civilians crash into the sea?

Gavin & Stacey: The Finale review – you will be forcibly moved to tears

OTD in 1878 Stalin was born. We have to pretend we are liberating Ukraine from Nazism cos we have not yet liberated ourselves from Stalinism.

The Syrian example shows that Russia can be kicked out and will go home. The Baltics were right – the West is strong enough to win. We don't need to fear "the Bear" in Ukraine or anywhere else he is causing chaos.

So all those tankies who said if a NATO member backs Syrian rebels to overthrow Russia's ally it will be "WORLD WAR 3" really look smart now.

What a time to be alive
