The emergency services, teachers and railway workers are my priority. Not a handful of multi millionaire landowner farmers threatening our food supply because they don’t want to pay a bit more tax, which is still less tax than most of us. Not making any money? Shouldn’t have voted leave then.

Given the largest factor by far stopping UK economic growth is Brexit - how was leaving the European Union without a plan for growth outside it at best not grossly irresponsible and at worst gross negligence on the part of the previous government?

Starmer warned not to cosy up to Trump as new poll shows Labour voters want closer EU ties instead www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

The standout most bonkers thing about Isabel Oakeshott's move to Dubai is that she's blaming the relocation on Keir Starmer... and his VAT on private schools policy

Joe Biden gave a great farewell speech. He's right about the Oligarchy. Did you know that Google has donated 1 million dollars to Trump's inauguration? Add that to: Bezos Mush Zuckerberg Cook

V guardian: Joe Biden warns ‘oligarchy is taking shape in America’ in farewell address www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

An oligarchy only works for the oligarchs. And once you lose democracy, it’s almost impossible to get back. It’s time to hold on tightly and stand up to those who seek to destroy our constitutional republic.

#BBCNews - Georgian opposition leader beaten up, blames governing party members www.bbc.com/news/article... #Sakartvelo

The dumbest member of Congress by far. How the hell did she win her seat by 30%?

Cuba is a Socialist country and one of the poorest in the world suffering under a 60+ year economic blockade by the richest country in the world. Guess which one has better healthcare, life expectancy, literacy, lower infant mortality and every type of crime. It ain't the USA.

Government to crack down on MPs earning extra cash from media firms www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

California’s on fire, and while the GOP is busy blaming DEI and concocting conspiracies, Canada and Mexico are busy saving lives.

So true.

Gotta love ppl who work in book shops

"Once a hub for news, debate, and connection, Twitter has devolved into a cesspit of hate and chaos. Today, I’m sending my final tweet."

Musk's own AI surpasses his intelligence on his platform.

More than 60 universities and higher education institutions in Germany have announced their departure from X In a joint statement, the universities condemned the platform for amplifying far-right populist content, calling it “unacceptable” www.aa.com.tr/en/europe/ov...

Over 60 German universities quit social media platform X. Platform accused of failing to uphold values of diversity, freedom, and scholarship.

SO... I politely asked Elon Musk to stop peddling lies about my Government and instead use his technology to help stop on line CSA and radicalisation, and he ge put a RESTRICTION on my Account. Freedom of Speech is one sided in the Land of Musk. Maybe I hit a raw nerve

Who else is really looking forward to not watching the Inauguration? 👀 👎

Until now, the consensus on X has been that it is a necessary evil for anyone in politics. But I know my presence on X no longer benefits my role or the people I seek to serve. So I have left, for good. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

He’s guilty of 34 counts of business fraud He stole classified documents and led a conspiracy to obstruct the retrieval of them He pressured elections officials in Georgia to overturn their election results He tried to overthrow an American election And he won't face consequences for ANY of that

25% of Nigel Farage's party has left because they swear allegiance to Elon Musk. Both pathetic and hilarious.

JUST IN: The U.S. added 256,000 jobs in December, surpassing expectations and bringing the total for 2024 to 2.2 million. The unemployment rate dipped to 4.1%, and wages grew 3.9% over the past year, far outpacing inflation.

When you're too stupid to get the joke.

The out of control fires in Los Angeles are the result of Climate Change, defunded Public Services, and Privatized Water. But nobody in the USA is going to deal with any of the problems.

The most Right Wing part of the UK, according to analysts. Tracks heavily with low levels of educational attainment.
