If unearned income, from shares and dividends, is taxed at a lower rate than earned income, from wages, it bakes in inequality and ensures the rich get ever richer. #politics
ICE will stop being an acronym and just be the word for American secret police like gestapo or stazi

The #Farage riots were supposedly to protect our women and children from evil migrants… and yet now we have Farage mentioned in the Epstein pedo files… every accusation is an admission?

Terrifying that such powerful people have mad and dangerous religious extremist views.

It's hard to overstate the degree to which the general public is being lied to about trans people
Alex Massie trumped up a fake campaign in the times to claim hundreds of rape convictions for women in the justice system were actually trans women despite the numbers covering several hundred more convictions than there are trans women in prison for any crime.
To understand how much Alex Massie actually cares about women's safety: when I called out his transphobe-in-arms Nick Cohen for multiple acts of sexual misconduct against cis women, which eventually got him sacked, Massie went berserk at me.

Transphobia is a men's rights movement in drag.

Good politics 101… Australia passes bill limiting billionaires interference spending to $50k… Switzerland military rejects Palantir software… Wales makes law holding politicians to account for lying… Scotland passes community wealth building law… see its not hard!

The Home Secretary has several times said she thinks levels of net migration remain quite high + are comparatively high

This is mainly a vibe.

There are a few factual mistakes/over-spins in her explanation of why she thinks this but many journalists + MPs may not quite notice those.

"To support Nigel Farage and his far-right agenda is to betray every man and woman who gave their lives during the Second World War fighting the extremism that threatens to topple Europe once more.
True patriots know this."

#Reform appear to have broken election laws in the Gorton Denton Manchester by election. A blue letter has gone out without party details. Cos they are the establishment so it only matters if anyone else breaks the law. Laws are for little people. Expect an honest mistake excuse?

So Trump thinks there was cheating in the election cos he didn’t win everything? Narcissist asshat can’t imagine that anyone may disagree with him. That’s why he thinks protesters are paid actors. Delusional.

Restoring Palace of #Westminster could cost £40bn and take 61 years! Fuck off that is not value for money! But they will argue they have to waste our money on it and cut back benefits to do it cos of history etc blah blah…

I am finding all the adverts for investing in stocks and stock apps now very discounting. It suggests to me that the markets are desperate for ordinary workers cash and that may be there will be a crash soon where those workers lose everything. It’s the American model creeping in. Shivers.

Bannon now saying that ICE will stand outside the polls like gestapo to intimidate citizens not to vote. Fascism stealing the vote.

Peak madness when American immigration agents can go into another country! The mind boggles at the logic!

There are no Drag Queens in the #Epstein files… but Trump and Farage are!
February 2, 2026 at 11:39 AM
#Farage is mentioned 43 times in the Epstein files…

#Chester Reform TERFS and local tories want to defund Storyhouse for having the audacity of acknowledging that LGBTQ people exist! It’s a spiteful little exercise in wasting public money on an emergency council meeting motion. Peddling hate and wasting time.

You put your far right in, your far right out, in, out, in, out and grift your arse about. You talk a load of bollox but you’re not called out. And that’s what it’s all about! #Reform
