The ethnic cleansing of Gaza and destruction of Palestine is now US foreign policy.

Demand that the British government publicly condemn this outrageous plan and take a stand for Palestinian rights.

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear.

This man sows hate, lies and division.

He is a grifter and a conman.

He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

Repost if you agree

P.s. multiculturalism is great.

Our government is sleepwalking into climate catastrophe.

Labour seems gripped by a form of denialism. The danger is real and incremental change won’t avert it, says Jeremy Corbyn, independent MP for Islington North

If you’ve been watching all of the discussion about UnitedHealthcare in the news, I bet you’re worried - and we should be. The UK is sliding towards a two-tier healthcare system, where millions can’t access the care they need in the NHS🚨

None of the existing media outlets explain the situation…

Could send them to work as well.

Most of them have never done that.

I’m struggling to find all of the lovely folk from Twitter/ X who care about the NHS.

This is so important right now, because the NHS is in a state of emergency and EveryDoctor is running an important campaign involving 117 MPs already.

Please could you help me to find everyone?🤞💙

Only 17,492 children *SO FAR* recorded killed by Israel's IOF since Oct-7. Oh - and two more Lebanese killed by Israel today, despite there alledgedly being a ceasefire in operation. So nothing that the UK media would consider worth reporting.

The British Royal Family are a collection of the rudest, laziest, most two faced people in the UK.

Yet we are forced to give them £1.5m every day.

Abolish them, repossess all their stolen properties and land.

Get them off benefits and into work, for the first time in their lives.

Labour's latest attack on welfare is a disgraceful assault on the dignity of the sick and disabled.

If the government really wanted to crack down on people "gaming the system", they would go after tax dodgers hoarding our country's wealth.

We all need electricity - it's a universal need. But we can only choose one supplier. Private companies operate a natural monopoly.

We need to return to a public service, where profits become re-investment in lower prices and better infrastructure, not higher dividends.

Reverse Thatcherism 👍
Yeah, the so called price cap is going up again and the keep using the same old bullshit excuses but the real reason is, the energy companies need to pay their shareholders and bosses bigger payouts. Nationalise them now!
How can I lower my energy bills and what help is there for me?
Ofgem’s energy price cap is rising again, by 1.2% from January 1.

Following the ICC's arrest warrants, the Independent Alliance have written to the Prime Minister asking if he will comply with the ruling.

The UK government must decide: is it on the side of Israeli impunity or international law?

The Prime Minister should make a statement, immediately, to confirm whether UK missiles have been fired into Russia. Full statement below.
