The Los Angeles Dodgers announced today that the organization will donate $1 million to immigrant families impacted by recent raids.

Students in England graduate with average £53,000 debt. Total debt £266bn, up to 7.3% interest. Most European nations don't charge university tuition fees, England does. What was public debt, is now personal debt. People penalised for education, can't start family, business. Abolish uni fees.

Today is Refugee Day. So we thought it was time to dispel the myths which surround asylum seekers and refugees. Could you live on £49 a week?

Another benefit of Brexit! In the EU we could simply send back about half of the boat people, because they had claimed asylum in the EU. Now of course we are “free” to keep them for years until they fail our asylum investigations!….. and the Tories knew that before we left

Trump & Musk can’t help but fail in everything they do!

Kamala Harris... 🩵 the rightful winner of the 2024 election

Anyone remember when we were told it was vital to bomb Libya to stabilise it or to invade Iraq to restore order? Wars are easy to start. Where they finish is less easy to predict or to control. Why is it OK to bomb Iran to stop them getting nuclear weapons but fine to let Netanyahu control them?

Trump, unable to bring peace to Ukraine or Gaza is now on the brink of inflaming the Israeli Iran war using Americas massive power.

EPIC response.

When NO KINGS reigns over your parade. #SAD 🤣

According to the BBC on a number of news summaries today, Mel Stride has 'said' something on Kuenssberg, while Rachel Reeves has 'defended' and 'insisted' on the same programme. It's just drip, drip, drip.

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

A senator celebrating the murder of political opponents should be expelled. Not debated. Not excused. Expelled.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Birds of a feather always flock together

The revolution will not be televised… oh wait. It’s clear this is all about style over substance.

Does Trump have a handle on any situation he has involved himself & the USA in?

The NYT likes fascism, it is a fascist enabling organisation.

An MSNBC anchor just definitively claimed Padilla didn't identify himself when video clearly shows he did. So fucking irresponsible. This is how lies spread.

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

DHS is arguing members of the Secret Service don't know who a U.S. Senator is, that he didn't identify himself (he does in the tape), lunged towards the Noem (not evident on the tape), and somehow all this necessitated him being hauled away, thrown to the ground and cuffed. x.com/DHSgov/statu...

‘Millionaire Exodus’ the UK Millionaire-Owned Media Told You About Never Actually Happened. 9,500 millionaires reported to be leaving the UK in 2024 represented 0.3% of the UK’s 3.06m millionaires. Fake stories create panics, want people/govts to be slaves of the rich. Tax the rich.

I notice people calling what we’re seeing these last couple of days “riots.” I was here during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. That’s not what this is. Local police can handle this, but ICE needs to back off—especially with these amateur hires who don’t know what the f*ck they’re doing.

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

LAPD when they think nobody is watching

It is completely unlawful for ICE to turn away members of Congress like this. The law could not be more clear; no member of Congress may be denied access to a facility where ICE is detaining someone, and they cannot be required to schedule in advance. Surprise inspections must be surprise.

“Brexit!” Terse one-word Spanish officer’s explanation to a Brit surprised an EU passport holder had priority. What an own goal the UK scored.

Reform UK has uncovered the scandal of a “wasteful” £350m contract. Small problem: it’s not a contract. Or £350m. Or a scandal. Here’s how they got it completely wrong. 👇👇

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

With their lack of competence and knowledge of local government Reform councillors would probably do more damage if they did turn up for meetings… www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/new...

YES!!!

ZiaYusuf has mistakenly breached the Reform resignation quota & needs to rejoin until the end of the month.

Rachel Johnson doing her best to promote division with her less than convincing phone in ref. Reforms “banning the burka”. She needs to follow her brother into racist oblivion.

Trump & Musk will speak to reconcile, art of the deal so far has given us, Genocide in Palestine, Putins mass murder of civilians in Ukraine maybe they could wipe each other out?

The opening drive in the Super Bowl of Sociopathy has begun!!

Has Iain Dale gone full Farage? Very defensive about UKIP’s failures today, has he finally worked out that he will never get a Tory seat!

Trump isn’t speaking to Putin. He’s echoing him.

It seems that the UK media has been given a new remit. The 'gotcha' style of interview has embedded itself so firmly into the political scene, journos seem to be vying to make theirs the most haranguing. This govt is never asked about policy, just blamed for it by right wing naysayers for clickbait.

For Reals

Listening to BBC interview with emergency doctor who is being refused, amongst others, access to work in Gaza. Isreal is starving the Palestinians they are not shooting & denying them medical aid, all under the protection of the American Veto!
