All around the world Electricity prices are going down, but in the UK they are going up, and the Water bills too. We live on scam island.

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.

Breaking News: NHS waiting lists have fallen again, that’s 4 months in a row. The economy grew more than expected. What do the BBC send out as breaking news? Rachel Reeves exaggerated her CV, not lied about her role at the BOE? It’s no exaggeration to say how bias the BBC has become.

A bit of good news: NHS England hospital waiting list falls for 4th month in row. The lowest figures since April 2023. Considering the “quademic” and winter months, this is an achievement for both the NHS and Labour government. So it’ll obviously be all over the news, right?

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.

Denmark has a new king, the King and Queen get approximately $500,000 from the Danish Government a year, and the whole family is worth $40m. In the UK King Charles gets $150,000,000 a year and his family is worth $25bn. We need to be more like Denmark.

The ECHR, the Human Rights Act and the Equality Act are our protection from a rogue govt abusing and removing our rights, so they can exploit us and act out their ugly prejudices, unchecked. Anyone suggesting any of this marks themselves out as a dull-witted fascist who prefers tyranny to democracy.

King Charles made £11.4m over 15 years charging the NHS to store ambulances. Millions from the Navy for mooring boats, £37 million from leasing Dartmoor Prison, £28 million from wind farms, over £24 million from the Dutchy of Cornwall and much, much, much more. And we still pay him over £28m/year. 🤷‍♂️

Britain set to become the fastest growing economy in the G7, as Labour promised. Nothing in the media. Watch when Trump tries to bring the UK down? It will all be Labour’s fault.

America isn’t getting rid of TikTok because of national security it’s because Zuckerberg (aka Napoleon Dynamite cosplaying as an extra from 8 Mile) has been lobbying to get rid of the competition. Now he’s blowing on Trumps balls. It’s about ROI. It’s about absolute power and control.

MP’s should not be allowed second jobs except where they need to to keep their professional qualification e.g. doctor. There should also be a minimum attendance expectation for parliament and constituency work.

Every single poll and survey shows a large majority regretting Brexit and wanting to rejoin the SM, CU and/or the EU as a whole. I fail to see why we should be bullied by a right wing media, minority of the population and cowardly government. I want a government with balls not excuses.

Please repost if you believe that big-money political donations are intrinsically corrupt and should be banned and classed as the serious criminal offence of corruptly buying political influence.

When you break from the herd, as we did with Brexit, you become vulnerable. It’s no surprise that Musk has targeted us as a punch bag. Or that the vicious clowns who fetishised ‘sovereignty’ and ‘control’ are brown-nosing him now. ‘Make Britain great again’. Christ, you stupid traitorous bastards.

We don't defeat populists by calling out their lies. We tried that. Facts are complicated, and the audience for populism wants simplicity. It won't work. We defeat populists by enacting bold political ideas that improve lives for the disenfranchised, and make the world seem less grotesquely unfair.

Boris Johnson does not care about “freedoms” nor the economy. If he did, he’d want us to rejoin the EU. What he does care about, ladies & gents, is you fighting to save his legacy for his own ego’s sake. I say let’s nuke it.

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services. Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt. While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant per person of £10tn. That's how privatisation 'works'.

When will we learn? Big money political donations subvert democracy and are gateways to corruption. They must be banned and treated as serious criminal offences involving the buying of politicians and political influence.

Gisele Pelicot should named as the Time person of the year. For bravely waiving her anonymity in one of the most horrific rape cases the world has seen, to take a stand for survivors and shame the perpetrators. Instead they’re featuring Trump, a rapist, for the second time. Obviously.

I wish her only health and happiness but this really is ridiculous. Until we stop the deification of these frankly entirely ordinary people it’s hard to see how we evolve out of the stagnant stupor that continues to hold back the United Kingdom. How can anyone take this seriously.

Instead of wasting money on useless stocking-fillers that'll end up in landfill by January 1st, why not donate the money to a food bank? 3.2 million Britons depend on them, including 1.1 million children. Do what you can. Thanks. www.trussell.org.uk/support-us/d...
