Elon Musk hah… would you buy a second hand or even a new car from that man❓🤔 Millions have brought Tesla SwastiCars which can catch fire, explode or simply start coming to pieces with bits falling off as ppl drive them.. So who in their right minds would man a Space X rocket that does this👇🏼👇🏼🤦🏼‍♂️🤪🙄

5.3% of tax, dodged by the richest 1%. Stop worrying about Disabled People and start noticing the rich people ripping you off.

What a perfect time to have absolutely the worst possible person in charge of everything

There's a one-word answer to this question but it is still worth asking why Kemi Badenoch has given the thumbs up to the kind of unapologetic white nationalism that Ted Heath rejected 57 years ago

This war is an absolute disaster in the making. Would be madness for the UK to get involved www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

"Dying people like me are begging for choice" Nathaniel Dye implores Parliament to vote with compassion on Friday.

I agree with John Major on this: "One of the things I think that has really damaged the public's understanding of politics is the lack of the long interview. "Nobody [is] given an hour to sit the PM or senior member of government or opposition down, and probe deeply into what they're going to do."

A damning report into the faulty Post Office IT system that preceded Horizon has been unearthed after nearly 30 years - and it could help overturn criminal convictions news.sky.com/story/crucia...

I'm sorry, but watering down everyone's basic rights - something we already have to few of - is not a clever way to head off the threat of Reform. It's exactly the sort of ideologically cowardly pandering that's seen you sink in the polls to the point you're ushering in a Reform government now.

Who'd have thought Germany was standing up to dictatorship when the United States is failing?

Major’s “a little less true” is typical British understatement. Here’s how our legalized corruption system works.

About time: 'English universities have been barred from enforcing blanket bans on student protests. The Office for Students guidance set out for the first time how universities should deal with inflammatory disputes such as Gaza, urging a “very strong” approach to permitting lawful speech on campus'

oh my god

Most of the replies are complaining that he limited his deportation demands to Pakistanis rather than all Muslims. Utter utter cesspit.

Gov. Kathy Hochul says “the charges have been dropped” against Brad Lander.

An excellent day, all in all…

I know your time is precious and all that, but I can assure you that this is worth 100 hours of doomscrolling.

“OK, Boomer” just got flipped on its head. At protests across the country this past weekend, older Americans turned out in force, leading chants, waving signs and showing that resistance has no age limit. And their passion isn’t just inspiring. It might be what helps save democracy.

Can we call it fascism now? Not yet because it’ll switch non-fascist voters off, and at the same time alienate the people voting for fascists? Oh. youtu.be/1WsvzqpsJpM?... How about now? Still no? Oh.

Fantastic news! Religious extremists are coming for our rights and the more we can entrench and cement human freedoms into law the better! I’m thinking right now of humanist campaigners like Diane Munday who, now in her 90s, started this campaign over 60 years ago. humanists.uk/2025/06/17/b...

THIS IS THE NEXT HUGE ISSUE TO OVERCOME. STOP PALANTIR. STOP THIEL.

It’s important to remember that the columnists who revere this weirdo, and the broadcasters who hand her season tickets & free passes galore, also understand nothing of Shakespeare. A truth rarely clearer than when they cite him in defence of ‘British values’.

Badenoch clearly suffering from amnesia as she tries to blame 15 years of inaction on grooming gangs on a govt that’s been in power 11 months - totally forgetting her very forgettable times as minister for women & equalities and minister for local government AND minister for Children & Families

The Billionaire Media endlessly go on about Grooming Gangs because it allows them to distract from the real criminals like the people behind Grenfell. But those are crimes by their mates.

A proper headline. Take note, @washingtonpost.com

About half of Vienna's 2 mill residents live in social housing. Avg social housing rents are c $700 pcm for a large 1-bed apartment….Schublach pays more for his four-bedroom — with utilities, it's around $1,700pcm. "Which is not 'cheap, cheap,' but it's definitely affordable," he says.

When NO KINGS reigns over your parade. #SAD 🤣

"MPS CALL FOR WATER COMPANY REFORMS" #AlexandraWood for @yorkshirepost.co.uk. The Water Sector is in need of "root-and-brand reform" a committee of MPs has said. Firms are 'deaf to crisis' in 'failing' industry. #YorkshirePost #TomorrowsPapersToday #IBPAPERS

BREAKING: Gavin Newsom just posted this mocking Trump’s military parade.

Is the answer free childcare? I feel sure it is. I'll click now and see. Can't wait!

Trooping the Colour, how much do you pay for this ridiculous charade? £20,000,000 That is 800 Nurses, 500 Doctors or 1000 Teachers. We need all of them, we don't need this.

"They are taking all our jobs." "What Qualifications do you have?" "None but they are taking all our Qualifications as well."

8 years later and not a single person has been put on trial for Grenfell, even though a report a year ago listed all the people involved, and what they did or didn't do. They don't want to convict them, because they are rich.

Protests today in The Hague,Brussels, Copenhagen,Stockholm,Quebec,Berlin and Geneva against the Israeli govt. Michiel Servaes of @oxfamnovib said: ‘Over 150,000 people in red - and a large majority of all Dutch citizens - want real sanctions to finally stop the genocide in Gaza.’

Endless crowd. Well done Glasgow

Nobody in the UK supports this we do not want to spend our money to support Israel committing War Crimes.

'Over the years, we have seen Trump do his abracadabra trick. He has the media and public focus on an outrageous act so they don’t pay any attention to some other despicable thing that’s going on. In this case the despicable “something” is his bloated bilious budget bill.'

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, "The Iranian people are not the same as the Iranian government" "The Israeli leadership doesn't represent the whole of the Israeli people, and there are many Israelis who are appalled at what their leader is doing in Gaza"

Lest we forget, the UK has also experienced episodes of its government waging war upon ordinary people, the 'Battle of Orgreave' being one of the most shameful examples in living memory. And it happened right here, in Yorkshire.

Christiane Amanpour, "The people of Iran have been demonised and dehumanised, always associated with their leadership" "The people of Gaza have been dehumanised and delegitimised" "It's not fair to have collective punishment"

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

Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop! Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels
