It's really striking how both the EU and China negotiate with the US from a position of strength, while the UK negotiates from a position of "please sir, don't hurt us sir, please we are only small, please may we lick your boots"

Out of 55.2m UK adults 17.8m have annual income of less than £12,570. 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined. FOUR Britons have more than 20m people combined. Failure of economic/political policy. Govts still squeeze the poor. Good society can't be built on economic injustice.

The monarchy continues to drain resources that could be better spent on those who truly need support. Time for an equal, democratic society, not one where unelected royals hold the power. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

t would be cheaper to build social housing than to keep stuffing gold into the pockets of the landlords who rip councils off for emergency accommodation. Tell me I'm wrong.

#GoodMorning, Britain! King Charles jokes about Italian cuisine, but 4.3m UK kids live in food-insecure households. Royals influence politics: Charles' meddling, Queen's secret powers. This trip is about promoting British interests & monarchic grip on power. #AbolishTheMonarchy

Chancellor tells Commons the potential impact of US tariffs ‘could be profound’. But not profound enough for her to boycott American cliches! She promises families anxious about cost of living ‘we have your backs’ also worried British businesses ‘we have your backs too’

Starmer says he will seek to strengthen existing alliances and seek to reduce trade barriers to "other economies around the world". - Heaven forbid he mentions the EU our biggest trading partner with which Brexit has increased trade barriers! 🇪🇺

While kids suffer from cancer caused by botched clean-ups, the royal family continues to wield power behind the scenes, shaping politics and keeping wealth concentrated. Their influence in Parliament and colonialism shows just how deep the problem runs. www.lbc.co.uk/news/health/...

The EU has a gigantic stick in its possible trade retaliation arsenal. But it's so big, they may never dare to use it. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

“First, Britain put up severe obstacles to trade with its largest partner in the form of regulatory and customs checks. Now it faces sky-high tariffs with its second biggest partner.” Brexit: an endless moronathon that leaves us permanently weaker and worse off. liveapp.inews.co.uk/category/361...

We're heading back to Victorian levels of poverty, nobody owns their own homes, you work for a lifetime to retire at 70 into a life where you can barely survive. While the millionaire Workhouse owners are now billionaires, soon to be trillionaires, but they won't pay any tax.

Just ridiculous!
