Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

Who remembers the times when there were sanctions on countries that jailed journalists? Let's not forget how they are now looking the other way and pretend they don't know what's going on. Over 200 got killed for exposing the genocide. youtube.com/shorts/ULOa8...

Yet another Specialist Medical Consultant has left the U.K. for a better life in Australia. Why haven’t successive U.K. governments made sure that they get a better living here?

The astonishing cognitive dissonance of a health secretary who insists he'll save the NHS - yet kicks the social care crisis into touch until 2028. 1 in 8 medically fit NHS patients cannot leave hospital for lack of social care. Of course A&E is overwhelmed 🤷‍♀️ www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

With Farage back on Question Time last night... ...here is your reminder that Farage was on BBCQT a record-breaking 35 times before he became an MP. And, further, that the panellist selection on BBCQT has been heavily slanted to right-wing think tanks and commentators over the years.

Who is going to break the news to Badenoch there has already been quite a detailed review of grooming gangs carried out by the Home Office? It found, proportionally, the main group responsible were white, British, men. Something which was then ignored in favour of using the term to stoke division.

POLLING: Brits trust the EU significantly more than they trust the US. Over half of Brits say the UK should be trading more with the EU. And Brits think the UK should prioritise improving its trading relationship with the EU ahead of any other country👇

This has to be the most dishonest reporting of an opinion poll I've ever seen The survey actually found that over two thirds of voters do not think Starmer will be out of No 10 within a year.

Feels incredibly obvious given Musk's latest outbursts that all MPs should now be joining Bluesky & other platforms Reminded by @jamesomalley.co.uk's latest piece to re-up this from lawyer George Peretz in August Perhaps send it to your MP if they're not here yet open.substack.com/pub/georgepe...

The current framing of Musk as an 'oligarch disruptor with a curious interest in Britain' isn't giving sufficient gravity to this.

“Musk is, more or less, a rogue state. His intentions are self-serving and nefarious. When rogue states behave this way – election interference, active disinformation campaigns, social media manipulation –other states call them out or impose sanctions” Yes please www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Almost a thousand migrants under certain visas in the UK are waiting over a year to find out if they can stay, with most waiting significantly longer. They can face job losses and debt - even when they have the legal right to work. Some even have British children.

Musk bankrolled Trump. Now he wants to bank role Farrage. This isn't freedom. This is the mega wealthy corrupting politics for their own personal gain. Musk must stay out of British politics. Repost if you agree.
