What is truly pathetic about Labour is that this is all they have got. They have failed so spectacularly already, despite a whacking great majority, to even attempt to govern positively that all they have is punching down on marginalised groups and saying "oh but Reform will be worse".

The difference between the pictures is only 3 years in my neighborhood

That winter was the last beautiful warm winter spent indoors with families gathered around the fire.

But this winter is truly harsh, with no shelter and no family together.

We have become afraid of rain 🌧😥

My NHS employer has just confirmed redundancies are coming. For the second time in my 16 year NHS career tens of thousands of NHS staff, many with decades of experience will be thrown on the scrap heap. Many worked on the frontline (including me) in the pandemic. This is Streeting's reward for us.

If the Media and its owners don't pay tax in the UK they shouldn't be able to print anything in the UK.

"And yeah we don't want the Americans owning our Media, get them out."

You might have thought Question Time was biased.

But you never realised how much.

UKIP never even had a single MP.

How the BBC kowtowed to Boris Johnson. Amazing that, even though we now know what a corrupt, mendacious, useless Prime Minister Johnson was, the BBC are kowtowing to him again

The BBC should serve as an example to all that there is nothing you can give the far rabid right that will satisfy it.

It has simpered, pandered, soft-balled and fluff-jobbed, both-sidesed and debased itself into being a platform for liars to look down the camera and lie on, & it still gets fucked.

UK leaders/politicians/press rubbished and railed for decades against the thing EU citizens believe is the most important strength of the EU, thought they could easily replicate the thing in second place, and never mentioned the 3rd most important aspect - solidarity with other member states.
Just going through some new Eurobarometer findings that have just been posted by EUC.
And thinking of this thread again with that "s" word that (some/many) Britons don't want to hear about coming up again in position #3 🙂

I'd say it's because our media & press platform them constantly, normalising their extreme views, & our govt does absolutely NOTHING to curb them, they even parrot them.

But ultimately, people are fed up with #Labour & #Tories lies & are falling for the lies #Reform promise instead! 🙄
