Starmer's response to Gill's conviction is extraordinary and weak.

Asking Farage to open his own investigation and saying this would show leadership. Again weak and beggers belief.

Has anyone told Starmer he is the PM of the UK and has extraordinary powers.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION.

The main reason why UK government investment in public services, productivity, and growth have been stagnant since 2008 is b/c their bailouts for the UK financial sector cost approx. £137b ( £253b in today's money), and I don't think they have recovered much of that, if any, to my knowledge?

My grandfather was a WWII PoW, and even though he survived, his subsequent violent alcoholism badly affected my mum, and even through her trauma on me and my sister.
War destroys so many lives, and the white poppy is essential. We want and need to move beyond war and remembrance to PEACE.

Farage has always been in Putins Pocket

He did it for money nothing for Britian

Sad ignorant fools that continue to buy his lies
Gill was described variously as Farage’s “enforcer” and “right-hand man”. One former Ukip MEP from that time told the Guardian: “Gill was in the thick of organising. He was the right-hand version of Farage. His office was right beside Farage’s.”

My expectation is that all councilsa newly under Reform control will similalry collapse before completing their 4 year term.

History shows that's what political groups under Farage do - see Thanet, EU (two terms).

Good that Your Party is getting called out on this.
As Sultana and co know very well, it is perfectly possible to support a people's struggle for national freedom while opposing the govt or political leadership currently at the head of that struggle. They do not apply this here for a simple reason - they do not support Ukraine.

This week was hard to deal with, there were so many civilians killed, two journalists killed, kindergartens targeted.

There were good news in terms of sanctions & equipment, but it doesn't stop drones & missiles.

At times, I don't know how to keep reporting on that constant flow of horrors.
