Crazy cat lady, mum and nana. Making my way through this mad world one day at a time. Much prefer being a woke, tree hugging liberal that’s not afraid to look up, than a comatose right wing blinkered bigot.

Here's the thing...

Labour are making sure people can't come here unless they seek approval before arriving.
Which means a massive reduction in plane arrivals.

So, 1. Why does there need to be a third runway.
2. Why waste tens of billions of £.
3. Even if planes increased, Labour ignoring climate.

Intriguing, challenging and informing. For a century, the BBC has been our classroom, our concert hall, our stage, our storyteller and our window on the world. Politicians need reminding: its much more than a news channel.

UK gambling industry made £15.6bn in 2024 (£16.8bn in 2025)

Most companies holed up in Gibraltar & Malta, dodge UK taxes. Some pay corporation tax at the rate of 3%-4%. No VAT on gambling.

Public bears the cost of gambling addiction.

Firms resent paying extra tax to clear their mess.

Tax them.

Tommy Robinson supporters are turning to Christianity, leaving the Church in a dilemma as their motivation isn’t based on a belief in God or Christian values

It’s using Christianity as a weapon against a perceived threat from Islam cultivated by Robinson, Farage etc

It’s Tommeh said be Christian🙄

My portrait of Lord Dubs will be in the immigration and asylum section of the Rebellion! exhibition along with his story and three other positive stories about people who were granted asylum.
Alf Dubs is a 92 year old man who spent his life fighting for refugees, and in particular for refugee children. He fought the Tories tooth and nail during their last three terms, only to see Labour adopt far-right policies on immigration.

Starmer is staggeringly bad at politics to an extraordinary extent. He has no vision and the communication skills of a rotten turnip. But who is his successor? I can’t see one in the ranks of bland mediocrity which surround him.

What a well written piece that thoroughly explains and shows what the truth of the matter is. Truth matters now more than ever!
I was tagged and asked to take a look at this claim - cos, well just look at it!🙄

Does it seem plausible that THE Trocadero is going to be turned into a Mosque?

It was pretty easy to debunk but I decided to do a deep dive into the reality AND the appalling press coverage

Apparently he's taking credit for Labour's dodgy possible adoption of Danish asylum law?
I've not seen the details of that yet.
I'm not exactly keen so far.
