Bombing a sovereign nation and kidnapping the President is the behaviour of a cowboy state.

The United States’ attack on Venezuela is illegal — and it is utterly shameful that the UK government refuses to condemn this reckless act of war.

“Far from acknowledging the dangers of a Trump presidency…., the likes of Farage and Johnson have actively sought to assist him, while personally profiting by association.”

Traitors all. They do us nothing but harm. Just how many times do we need to be warned?

Trump's Illegal Assault on Venezuela Opens the Door to Even Darker Foreign Adventures
It's time for the President's apologists to admit that those of us warning about the grave global threat he poses were right

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Farage going all out for the locals this May… spending millions to con voters into believing he’ll fix what he made sure he broke. Pleased that his base likes his racism. Strutting around in his brexity soiled pants like the big I am.

Please let’s bin him off now.

Chatted to my great uncle yesterday – a northern, working-class guy, not that political. I told him my job involved exposing Farage.

His first question was: “who funds him?”

South Park called it, and it’s hilarious.

One of the creators purchased the Trump Kennedy Center URL address before the name was even changed because they know Trump’s narcissism is in the driver’s seat.

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

These unconscionable cuts by the Labour government to a vital lifeline fund for some of the most vulnerable children & young adults in England are staggering - a 60% reduction from £7.5K to just £3K per child.

They must be reversed

So you know how, like, you want fascists to fail and people to stop suffering in war zones? And how you want racists to crawl back into whatever cesspit they emerged from?

The majority of people want that but the media make you feel like you’re in the minority.

You’re not.

I’m seeing that the new Epstein files PDFs can be unredacted because they screwed up the layers.

In view of the massive overcrowding in prisons this would appear to be an absolute no brainer but then … there doesn’t seem to be any joined up thinking in government circles ATM

Human rights are universal - politicians may not always find them politically convenient but it shouldn’t fall to any gov’t to say who those rights should & should not apply to. If that happens than none of us has rights, just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want
