This was proven by Mr. Zelenskyy in the faces and high-volume of vitriolic, word-salad tossing during his recent visit to the white house. He took it like a real man who fights for his people and nation.

If giving people food, housing, education, and time with their families is “socialism,” then maybe the problem isn’t socialism 🤷🏻♀️ it’s the people who think basic dignity is dangerous.

Right wing populism was anything but the gravy train that the Brexiteers were pushing. Like it could have been anything else but snake oil
Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study explains it: a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.
