A bit of a B'stard, but only to those who deserve it. Expecting THE SUPER RICH to pay their fair share of tax isn't envy. It's survival.

Reform appears to have a freephone number.
It would be really wrong to abuse this or keep them on the line for absolutely ages.....or ask for more "literature" which costs them to send....

Gary Lineker, "Jim Ratcliffe is a migrant himself, an economic migrant, he lives in Monaco"

"A lot of the immigrants contribute enormously, and the facts show you that, in terms of revenue, paying tax etc"

"Whereas Jim in Monaco, is doing everything he can to avoid paying tax"

Note how he's not presenting any ideas, nor telling people why they should vote for him.

He's just insulting everyone else.
When I lived in Japan, far-right parties used to drive around blaring out propaganda from loudspeaker vans. People saw them as public nuisances at best, dangerous nutters at worst. Interesting to see Matt Goodwin adopt the same strategy.

If the Brexit years really were behind us, Reform would no longer be a threat, there’d be no talk of leaving the ECHR, no Brexit peerages or whining about ‘Brexit betrayal’.
Instead, there’d be accountability and an electoral price to pay for the damage done. A ruthless reality check. No prisoners.

Whilst I agree the people supporting Palestine Action weren't ever exactly criminals, Palestine Action (whilst not being a terrorist organisation) don't seem too bothered about starving people and people made homeless in Palestine. There are far better anti genocide groups than these to support.

Nadhim Zahawi talking about walking past someone who looked like they hadn't slept in a week and being scared is just weapons-grade nonsense.

That said, whenever I walk around London looking tired, I don't blame people for giving me a wide berth, so I suppose there is that.

Hell yes, Democratic candidate Chasity Martinez just won the Louisiana HD-60 special election in a landslide victory after defeating the fascist republican challenger and holding that seat in a district the orange felon won by 13%.

Another victory for democracy.

Trump can't be in his right mind and do this.
He's not going to have made this picture himself. (Took it from somewhere else?)
This is so blatant (even for him). He must have at least have taken it down again.

FGM is illegal and abhorrent.

It has no place in London or anywhere else in the world.

On International Day of Zero Tolerance for FGM, we recommit to ending this brutal violation of the rights of women and girls and stand in solidarity with survivors.

If you still support fossil fuels, bioenergy fuels, nuclear, carbon capture, or bioenergy fuels, you are on the wrong side of science and history.
How many thought it was just a matter of time? I sure as hell did, and worse is on the way.

And he's right. Farage is a coward.
If he was truly as dismissive of Polanski as he claims, he wouldn't have offered to let Yusuff go and do his dirty work for him.

Any trans or non-binary person already knows this. Gender identity is rooted in the brain, not the genitals. You don’t need ideology to understand that. You need biology.
