Surely a successful businessman would have more to offer young voters than repeated scaremongering over brown-skinned people for clicks.

Well done @lizwebster.bsky.social for standing up to divisive, grifting Farage! Farage’s lack of welcome at Westminster farmer protest put down to the fact that the organiser was Liz Webster, a Remainer & founder of the pro-EU Save British Farming Brexit divide now undermining farmers tax protests

Lee: 1. Thanks for wearing your comedy hat 2. Those large bollards of yours…they’re shiny! 3. Thank you for explaining what a llama is. I guess many of your Reform supporters wouldn’t know. (Incidentally they might not know what a camel is either.) 😉

This is how the BBC are currently advertising their Sunday morning political program on their website. I don't want to be unfair, so I'll just say that I don't remember language like "faces grilling" when the Tories were in power. (But then, I didn't check every week so I may have missed it.)

As Labour touts more brutal cuts to benefits, how is this different from life under the Tories? Reeves tweaks non-dom tax law because of “concerns” but ignores the cries of disabled, old, sick, poor. Poor are expendable. Wealthy potential donors less so. Govt must change direction.

Exactly this. Just 2% of Musk's wealth could feed the very poorest and most desperate people in the world. He could use his money to do extraordinary things - and could go down in history as a hero. Instead he has deliberately chosen to be an evil, villainous dick

Enough is enough. Time to stop rewarding failure. Share holders have taken £2,800,000,000 in 11 years. Now they ask for £10,000,000,000 from us? No. Renationalise Thames water. Now. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Here is a new ruse. To appease public anger fines are announced on England & Wales water companies but are not paid. Companies are allowed to fix the amount & timing of their own fines. Any wonder companies dump sewage, don't plug leaks, fleece customers. It is "corrupt", what would you call it?

The @Telegraph, @thetimes, @MailOnline & @TheSun publish corrections to their scaremongering on undocumented migrants in London. Imagine between them the reach & power of these papers. The fact is they are using that power to instil Trumpist hate & we are ill-equipped to resist.

Benefit cheats could be stripped of driving licences. Someone innocently exceeding the Carer's earning limit is charged with fraud, can't drive, many not be able to work, can't support family, needs more benefits. Hawks are appeased No equivalent sanctions for tax abusers, launderers, real crooks

What about Tax avoiders? What about corrupt politician and their cronies? Britain is not broke because of benefits. Britain is broke because of the super greedy extracting all the wealth Britain is broke because the govt refusing to print money or tax the rich. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Is no secret that Farage wants to sell the NHS to America. He only has his own interests at heart and will create only more damage to the UK if given the opportunity.

If you look at everything that is happening in the US, and you look at what Farage and Yaxley-Lennon are doing in this country, and you think to yourself "Keir Starmer is my enemy" then you need to take a long hard look at yourself and your priorities.

Pssst, want to know what public money is really being spent on while Wes Streeting cancels another Labour pledge of building more hospitals? £11 billion 840 million of State aid (public money) is being pumped into 74 deregulated Special Economic Zones (SEZs), that's £160 million per zone. 👀💰💸💵
