This video 🔥 While the rich feast using their ill gotten gains, innocents are bombed. Children starve. Mothers and Father are slaughtered Let us wake up and see the world for what it is! A broken and destitute place crying out for equality & justice #EatTheRich

One in five of Reform MPs have been to prison. Where should we send them to?

Media commentators across Britain have reacted with outrage to something said by an Irish rap group named after the practice of shooting people in the knees. [From issue 1649, May 2025]

Smiley-faced chemtrails over Glastonbury. Come on.

The Vibe of Glastonbury smiles on the Left Field tent

When media outlets cover Bob Vylan at Glastonbury it would be nice if more of them pointed out that the festival currently has a population bigger than Oxford's and even 95 percent of people who are physically here wouldn't actually know what you are talking about.

It is 39°C in Lisbon today. The same in Madrid. In Paris next week it will also be 39°C. Look at this picture. People are under trees, where it can be up to 12°C cooler. Given trees take decades to mature and many don’t survive, cities need to plant many more street trees. And urgently.

Poor Marco..

If we can get that guy to shut up and sit down, we can do anything. Resist!

This is REALLY bad--and an utterly predictable consequence of military action. Inspectors can't now verify Iran's several bombs worth of highly enriched uranium. This is a MUCH bigger risk than whether the damage done to Fordow meets expectations.

@lbc.co.uk callers be like: 'I was in the Army for 4 years, 12 years ago, therefore I am more qualified to give insights on complex global defence issues' . DJs: 'Very interesting to hear from someone in the Army, thank you for your service'

When the leader denounces the sober assessments *of his own* intelligence community you are sooo far down the road to capricious, untethered authoritarianism.

This has got to be the most idiotic policy I’ve ever heard. Why not let everyone just pay a quid and then abolish tax altogether? Close all the schools, hospitals and just hope for the best? Or maybe just fuck off?

This is what I was hearing last night when I said Iran could likely reconstitute their whole program in 6 months: US strikes on Iran set their program back by only a few months. Current assessment is that a number of centrifuges are still in tact. www.cnn.com/2025/06/24/p...

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.
