Just when you thought he couldn’t be more of a prick… www.themirror.com/news/us-news...

Starmer and Reeves. Back door fascism.

Brexiters for years: "We left the EU, to be free from having to trade as a single entity." Brexiters when anyone treats the EU as a single trading entity: "nO tHeY iNdiViDuaL cOuNtRiEz!"🧐 Pick one. ~AA

Very serious questions, indeed.

Can we just build a wall up the middle of the Atlantic please?

Not at all suspicious… www.bbc.com/news/article...

A good start, but the whole antiquated establishment should be torn down. Nothing wrong with a head of state, but it should be based on free and fair elections, not centuries of inbreeding. It should also be self supporting. Not a single penny of tax payers money wasted.

“ Keir Starmer seems to want to handle Trump’s bullying trade tactics by trying to get him to be nice to Britain... However, it isn’t possible to placate or do deals with people who are deliberately trying to undermine your fundamental core values” yorkshirebylines.co.uk/politics/the...

What @teamlabouruk.bsky.social is doing to appease the orange one will further cut the UK from the rest of the world, and then, when the rapist has another tantrum, we’ll be left alone to fester in the crap of starmer’s making.

You want: 🫵 • Cheaper food 🍱 • A stronger NHS 🏥 • Jobs that actually pay 💷 There’s one way to get it: Rejoin the EU 🇬🇧❤️🇪🇺 No spin. No lies. Just reality. #BrexitRebels #TeamEU #RejoinEU

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social trying to appeal to reform voters. Shame on them www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

"just months into office, Labour’s sweeping cuts have left many questioning whether they truly voted for change, or simply a rebranded version of the austerity-driven politics they sought to escape."

Starmer just needs to fuck off now. He’s a joke.

In the light of the Evan Davis podcast being pulled, your occasional reminder of who the Director of News at the BBC is........

Read this and you’ll understand what is happening in America. Essentially, religious billionaires projecting their beliefs on the world. We need to eradicate billionaires.

Private companies are polluting our rivers, hiking up bills, and failing to deliver. 82% of us want public ownership – let’s make it happen! Sign the open letter now & demand action! 👉 you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pu...

Block Trump from speaking in parliament during his state visit. Sign the petition to stop this national embarrassment: 38d.gs/hzo3

The #BBC has become a shit stain on journalism

Get prepared for chlorinated chicken, hormone injected beef and god knows what else! news.sky.com/story/rachel...

UK electricity is one of the most expensive in the world. Ofgem bases price of electricity on the cost of gas, which is most expensive input. Providers of wind, solar, coal, nuclear, hybro, biomass power make mega profits. Must change Ofgem formula. Take gas out of equation, need more renewables.

Mark Zuckerberg is a slimy little shit, isn’t he?

Another reason why the @teamlabouruk.bsky.social is a lost cause www.theguardian.com/business/com...

NHS cancer patients denied life-saving drugs due to Brexit costs, report finds SO - the Brexit voters are responsible for multiple deaths as well 🤬 !!! ( I think it’s quite reasonable to curse them) When are we going to move closer to the EU Labour? WHEN ??? www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

A free tip for Keir Starmer If you want to do better in the polls, stop obsessing with reform and simply do better. Leave the disabled alone Tax the rich Nationalise infrastructure Pay workers properly It's quite simple!

Why is this utter bell end given so much media coverage? Bet chlorinated chicken isn’t on his shopping list either. If the UK votes for this turd, it deserves everything it gets. Has Brexit not taught the cave dwellers anything? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

We 💙 links! Starting this week, we've made it even easier for newsrooms and more to track how much traffic Bluesky is sending to their sites. For those setting up analytics, Bluesky's referrer is go.bsky.app.

Speaking truth to the BBC about its role in promoting Farage and far right politics, fact-checking claims about immigration and holding them to account for not getting it right./1 #TruthToPower @yorkshirebylines.co.uk @Docrussjackson.bsky.social yorkshirebylines.co.uk/politics/the...

An absolutely wild story this. The media experts who don't... or may not... exist. pressgazette.co.uk/publishers/d...

youtu.be/8Oidw43DGpo?... Watch this! Not because you’ll want to - but because we need to! Where’s the leader many voted for because he was a pro EU? A champion of the disadvantaged, disabled and poor? Oh sorry! Did you believe that stuff? I think we may all have been duped.

The @wildjustice.bsky.social petition to ban driven grouse shooting has passed 97,000 signatures thanks to you. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70... Even I am fairly confident that we'll get 100,000 signatures, triggering a Westminster parliament debate, by 22 May. 22 April would be even better!

Katy Perry is one massive moron!

People are going to die because Putin has filth on the grubby, orange turd. Fact.

Is #America now one of the world’s biggest human rights abusers?

How long before ICE say that ‘they were only following orders’? #trumptroopers

We’re at 94,000 signatures! Just a bit of a push and I’m sure we’ll get to 100,000 shortly! Please sign if you want to see the end of cages and crates for farmed animals in the UK. Each step brings us closer to ending cruelty to all animals. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

The cross appears to be the new swastika.

If #starmer bends over on this, him and the @teamlabouruk.bsky.social can rot in hell. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

This is the kind of scum Starmer still wants a ‘special relationship’ with. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cw...

This scum just needs putting down www.ladbible.com/news/uk-news...
