My Christian upbringing made me what I am today - a bitter, foul-mouthed, rage-filled, misanthropic pessimist.

If you want to know how serious our decline in the UK, when North Carolina did what the Labour Government and EHRC have done, the then UK Government told LGBT+ people to beware travelling there. (Credit to @kazhawa.bsky.social.) www.voanews.com/amp/uk-issue...

Vote tactically for a Starmerite Labour MP & watch him/her treat you with contempt.

Here are examples of the morons on the fascist wing of the Roman Catholic church: www.gbnews.com/news/us/pope... www.thedailybeast.com/fox-news-pri...

How many on the far-right commiserating the late Pope Francis previously denounced him as being "woke"? (Woke - i.e. not being asleep, dozing, being in a dreamlike state or brain dead.)

Don't worry, folks - Sir Keir is going to MAKE BREXT WORK! www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

Trump is ramping up his trade wars and crashing the global economy. He's not sparing the UK from his new tariffs, so why should we roll out the red carpet for him with a second state visit? Join more than 200,000 of us and add your name to he petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Alan Bates calls for legal action against Labour government over Post Office scandal Starmer's government is giving the 'feeblest of excuses' over delays in compensation for victims of the Post Office scandal. WTF is it doing? www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Blocking MPs from voting on a US trade deal would be straight out of Trump's anti-democratic playbook. Labour MPs should make clear to the PM they won't let him sell out our NHS, undercut farmers or weaken protection for children online. He must give Parliament a vote.

86 years ago to this day -- GERMANY INVADES CZECHOSLOVAKIA & THE REST OF THE WORLD DOES NOTHING. When are we going to learn the lessons of history? Appeasing lying morons is never going to work out well. For a 2nd time, Trump accuses Ukraine of starting the war! www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/new...

A sad story in the Guardian but it leaves unresolved the dispute that led to the quarrel between the 2 ladies. My moral - be good to your friends even though they piss you off now & then. You've probably pissed off people yourself so try to forgive & be nice. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

Hostages. But there's no outrage, is there?

At least 31 people were killed by Russian ballistic missiles in Sumy. Farage was promoted on Russian TV. He has parroted Russian lies. Farage is Putin's most useful tool in the UK. Fight Fascism - #Vote4Democracy in the local elections.

A #RevolvingDoor from politics into #BigTobacco, while there is a tobacco bill in parliament. I mean, really?! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Did you feel all that growth in February? No, me neither. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/04...

A young girl emerged alive from the deadly Israeli strike that hit the Al-Farra family’s home in Khan Younis last night.

I'm quoted for @natsecsoc.bsky.social in today's Times on our legal advice on recent charges against a man for offenses against "the institution of Islam." These charges effectively reintroduce blasphemy laws through the back door and should be dropped. www.thetimes.com/article/9eb1...

Today is the 77th anniversary of the Deir Yassin massacre. There are pro-Israel right-wing genocide-deniers who claim it didn't happen. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deir_Ya...

I would never argue against this.

47% scumbag morons. 24% Starmerites or tactical voters. Only 24% with any intention to vote with intelligence & integrity.

Pro-Putin Soprano Anna Netrebko Returns to London’s Royal Opera House. Controversial Russian soprano Anna Netrebko, known for backing Putin and the “LPR/DPR,” will return to London’s Royal Opera House in September after a six-year absence. www.kyivpost.com/post/50065

Redate this to today and it becomes a stunning moment of self-realization we will never actually experience in this space-time continuum

MASSIVE SHIFT Pro-democracy channels on YouTube are now growing faster than right-wing channels for the first time. MeidasTouch is proud to lead the way as the fastest-growing YouTube channel in Q1 2025. Keep this momentum going: YouTube.com/@meidastouch

This is what you get on Twitter - Starmer revealing himself in his full, disgusting, Trump-sucking self! x.com/Keir_Starmer...

Well, the US will have to decide whether it wants allies or believes it can go alone while insulting every other country. Because if it is the latter, buying US military equipment would be daft. www.reuters.com/world/us-off...

Stop saying it's not genocide. The Israelis are loudly and proudly saying it very much is.

Sir Keir - Tells ITV he didn't say Israel has the right to cut off water to Gaza when there is LBC video a week earlier of him telling Nick Ferrari Israel has the right to cut off water to Gaza. Says he is an atheist but sings God Save the King. Says his dad was a toolmaker but wears £2000 glasses.

Lilian Hellman wrote that Hollywood responded to the "wild charges of Joe McCarthy with the force and courage of a bowl of mashed potatoes." Universities were just as weak. This 1986 @bostonreview.bsky.social article explains how it went down step-by-step. www.bostonreview.net/articles/rea...

It’s an honour to host the @amnesty.org Media Awards 2025. Especially in what will be the final year before journalists are officially designated as enemies of the state - what a send-off! www.amnesty.org.uk/press-releas...

The thing about all these pieces complaining about Marine Le Pen's conviction is that not a single one of them bothers to explain why someone found guilty of embezzling millions of Euros from public funds should be allowed to get away with it

THE APRIL FOOL! April is going to hurt and Brexit Labour is to blame. More price rises, more pain. This is a financially illiterate government. Its financial rules are utterly stupid - plus it won’t rejoin the SM & CU and reduce the cost of living or tax wealth properly. No clue! WE’VE HAD ENOUGH!
