I'm not up on my Nazi regalia, but an infantroopen metal helmet would suit JD.
Farage is a farce, Netanyahu is a collaborator x perpetrator. How fitting.
And all of Drumpf's medals would be plastic, made in Jyna, and freeze dried after dipped in cheese.
Cheese, his rank is cheese.

Choosing to take money from disabled benefit claimants rather than levy a wealth tax is simply immoral 👇
Labour mollifies the rich, targets disabled people and claims moral justification. There isn’t any | Frances Ryan
Ministers run away from a wealth tax and then concoct a punitive benefits system. They have made that choice and it’s immoral, says Guardian columnist Frances Ryan

There is an alternative to Government welfare cuts - a 2% tax on wealth. There is no shortage of money here, we just need a fairer approach to tax - take more from the few not the many.

Notable how the UK under Starmer sometimes, if you squint & mainline some hopium, can look briefly advantaged by being unhitched to the EU but then reality/Trump bites & you realise that Brexit, always an act of unutterable stupidity, has made an already awful situation immeasurably worse for us.
❗️The future of Europe is not going to be decided by Russia or by Washington - President Macron in his address.
He emphasized that Europe needs to be able to defend itself and increase military spending, re-industrialize Europe and transform according to the new global context.
