The White House is run by a 'con-man'. Remember his fraudulent university, casinos that went bust etc? He is not to be trusted.

Gaza is the testing ground for a lawless new world order.

They’re removing rubble to start construction their New Gaza MasterPlan! They're removing bodies and evidence of war crimes before UN and ICC inspections.

If we allow this to happen, international law is dead.

Farage lied when he said he was too ill to appear for the BBC interview on Sunday.
The Heartland Institute, whose party he attended instead, doesn't believe in tobacco harms, climate change and seeks the dismantling of the NHS.
Be warned. If you care

As an NHS clinical psychologist, I can say pretty much everything here is contributing to the distress people are feeling. It's so validating- to feel heard & understood. This is not the usual 'political spin', this is a presentation of reality that so many people live every day. Thank you.
Help us make hope normal again.

Stephen Kinnock talks about the values of NATO.

In 2011 NATO attacked Libya. The Foreign Affairs Select Committee concluded that that attack was responsible for the economic & political collapse of the country, a humanitarian & migrant crisis & the growth of ISIS.

What values?
