“The Chancellor sparked anger when she revealed that govt wants to enable young people from Europe and UK to work and travel overseas” FFS. What ‘Brexit freedom’ exactly is being betrayed here? The freedom to NOT be free to work and travel overseas? One of the stupidest front pages I’ve ever seen.

Dear media, We're going to need you to stop being polite with trump, stop using kind words to describe his bullshittery, his grifting, and his absolute CHAOS. When he lies, call it LYING. When he grifts, call it grift. When he acts like a fucking fascist, call it that.

Sad when our country is concerned more about 2nd Amendment rights than the rights of our children to feel safe in our schools, playgrounds, churches and homes.

Stigma, sanctions, and systems designed to exclude. The UK’s benefits regime isn’t just cruel – it may be breaching international law. Read what this week’s Amnesty report says ⤵️ | Koldo Casla @eastangliabylines.co.uk @koldocasla.bsky.social

Another reminder, just because a dude is out there spouting progressive ideals, it doesn't mean he wants it for women too.

They see women as second class citizens. They are trying to roll back rights for women to be able to get credit without having a man sign for them.

He mocked a disabled reporter way back when. It wasn’t bad enough. Then the 34 felony convictions, and the Rape. It wasn’t bad enough. Now he’s disappearing people and sending hundreds to torture chambers. Still not bad enough it seems.

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

This is what we all feared. The United States and Russia bullying brave President Zelensky into a terrible deal. Time for the United Kingdom and Europe to stand up to Trump and seize the Russian assets so we can go it alone.

At a GOP town hall last night, heckling from constituents was apparently too much to handle—so they used police force and even stun guns on their own constituents. What are they so afraid of? Someone disagreeing with their views?

Now, Sanders is going off schedule to reach young voters who have the power to remake US politics!

By defying the Supreme Court’s order to return Abrego Garcia from El Salvador, Trump is laying the groundwork to do the same to U.S. citizens. Now is the time to speak out — before there is no one left to speak. We are on a path towards dictatorship.

Attempting to spin an unnecessary trip into space as a feminism is just insulting. What about the genuinely talented women working at NASA who didn't get to go in order to make room for celebrities? What about the massive environmental impact of the flight? Don't patronise us with this crap.

I gotta say, “women are going to space” sounds a lot nicer than “the ultra rich are taking hyper-polluting joyrides to space while the planet descends into climate chaos”
