Not head over heels in love with this diet Tory labour party but anyone who isn't absurdly wealthy and thinks that Farage is the answer, is an absolute moron.

Keir Starmer, "Russia menaces our online spaces" "Do you want to know what Nigel Farage and Reform are doing on their rare visits to parliament?" "They're voting against our employment rights bill" "They are not the answer for people in Britain"

“The Ukrainian president was elected in free elections in Ukraine..he is an elected president of a free system. That's not the case with Vladimir Putin, who kills his opponents and has been manipulating his elections for a long time” Emmanuel Macron President of France 👏

Le Monde, "French MPs vote through the left's wealth tax on the ultra-rich" Your reminder that a 2% wealth tax on those with £10 million, affecting 0.04% of the UK population, would raise £24 billion a year You have to wonder why Labour chose not to do this..

🔴‘Wales Is Leading the Way on Ending Lying in Politics. Westminster Must Now Do the Same’ The Welsh Government looks set to impose bold new restrictions on lying in politics. It’s time for Westminster to follow suit, argues Jennifer Nadel bylinetimes.com/2025/02/19/w...

Increasing your Water Bills 44% ABOVE inflation in the next 5 years isn't enough for the Water Companies, they have appealed to Ofwat to let them increase them up to 83% ABOVE inflation. Like if they can get stuffed. RT if we should nationalise the lot.

I'd say the biggest forces "undermining our nation from within" are the fake patriots loudly cheering on these attacks on our country by a hostile foreign government

If this were Just Stop Oil, there'd have been dozens of arrests, furious denunciations in the billionaire press and, perhaps, long jail sentences. Farmers have a right to protest, and the police respect it. Other people, it seems, not so much. The real #TwoTierPolicing www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Posted around NYC, Chicago, DC and other cities. Be creative. Do something!

Can Denise Van Outen & Johnny Vaugh get back together and do the Big Breakfast TV show. Absolutely sick of second by second USA updates on background morning TV whilst having breakfast.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

The appointment of the former boss of Amazon UK to lead the UK competition watchdog is a threat to its independence and pledge to hold big tech to account. Further evidence of corporate control of govt. No chance of breaking monopolies or protecting consumers from corporate abuses.

The Papua New Guinea Courier is in rare form.

🔴 Nigel Farage Is a ‘Political Fraud’ Who Must Be Exposed as an ‘NHS-Privatising Putin Apologist’, Says TUC Leader Attendees at the Hope Not Hate event in Westminster heard that Reform now “presents a genuine threat” to the UK bylinetimes.com/2025/02/05/n...

FFS, this country is doomed.

We’ve just heard the NHS is to hire physician associates from abroad despite training quality fears @anaesunited.bsky.social has stepped up to protect patient safety. But they can’t do it alone. They need our support to succeed youtu.be/yrwmT255MVY?...

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Terrible. Starmer is such a drab letdown. He's so far off what the people of the UK want and need. He will hand the keys of government to Deform in 4 years time.

So now we have it. Rachel Reeves's claim that a third runway at Heathrow Airport would boost economic growth comes from a report commissioned by .... Heathrow Airport. Instead of acting in the national interest, she's channelling corporate lobbyists. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

GB News has repeatedly complained about the #StopFundingHate community's impact in persuading advertisers to steer clear of the channel. Your support can help to keep up the pressure: crowdfunder.co.uk/p/stop-gb-news

The damning statistics that reveal the true cost of Brexit, five years on

This is grim. Everything Trumpy and America is about. Profit over all else. In fact there is nothing else, only ever profit.

Shocked I tells you...

“Like manipulative partners, the super-wealthy have legitimized an extremely unequal economic model by convincing us that we’d be worse off without them. But today, the jig is up. It’s become increasingly obvious that the world’s billionaires are takers, not makers.” zeteo.com/p/the-billio...

“It is alarming that the government is happy to negotiate with China but won’t even look at a better trading arrangement with our closest neighbours in Europe. This is an act of economic negligence” Ed Davey www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/econom...
