Reform: an undeniably racist, misogynistic, transphobic, disability-sceptic party with disturbing links to christofascist MAGA… wants to leave the ECHR and scrap the Equality Act, removing our rights and protections.

I find it so difficult to understand the stupidity involved with protesting a charity that saves lives.
There was a protest outside the RNLI today and I would post the 'there are dozens of us' meme but that would be to overstate the case somewhat

Meet rehomed foxhound Alfred. “He found a safe corner of my bedroom the furthest corner of the house from the front door. He was quiet. He didn’t howl or even bark.” This was not a dog grieving the loss of the hunt. This was a dog seeking refuge.

Something magnificent about Kemi Badenoch's self-confidence, and her claim that the Mandelson affair is entirely down to her asking questions at PMQs. Like a toddler who thinks their plastic steering wheel is controlling the car.

I just signed the campaign calling to save our swifts, by calling for the UK Government to follow Scotland's lead and make it the law for all new houses to be built with "swift bricks" - safe places for these birds to nest. Will you join me? 38d.gs/sb_ps_ot

I just finished reading and it is so much worse than I even imagined. Palantir effectively controls some of our most sensitive data - from nukes to the NHS - and Palantir is loyal to the US.
NEW: Our investigation for @thenerve_news reveals not only that Peter Thiel’s Palantir is completely enmeshed in our critical national infrastructure.
It’s also the ‘cloud support’ for our nuclear weapons system 🤯

Farage’s Brexit was peddled as “taking back control”. It’s been a shitshow. And not because we didn’t leave the ECHR. But because flouncing out of our cooperative arrangements backfires.
Prejudice makes for easy slogans but ruinous policy.
We should be very wary of this simplistic bullshit by now.
