Pleased to announce that I have just been appointed as 2nd Assistant to the Deputy Treasurer of the Bilgehampton Branch of ANTIFA UK! 😁
I'm thinking of becoming a Despot as it looks VERY lucrative. Anyone know where I go to apply?

Just fuck off with this. How about start the conversation by highlighting how much immigrants contribute to the UK - not least by propping up the NHS and social care system!

Also - forced volunteering is not volunteering, it's unpaid labour.

How do you ensure a nation fails to cope with drought? Privatise its water system.

Almost everyone wants our water renationalised. Almost everyone, that is, except the government.

High water bills, filthy rivers – and now drought. This is England's great artificial water crisis of 2025 | George Monbiot
In its refusal to nationalise water, it’s clear the government operates in the interests of private capital and not of the country, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Brexit was a monumental act of self harm and stupidity. That we have a government allowing it to continue is unforgivable.

Opposing Netanyahu's Israel is not antisemitism.

Supporting Netanyahu's Israel is complicity in genocide.

It's a bad sign when allegedly intelligent columnists in purported liberal publications spend more energy defending Starmer's clumsy, ugly and gratuitously populist attack on immigrants than they spend defending immigrants.

Some might say you create “an island of strangers” by creating a ‘them an us’ between migrants and everyone else. By making it harder for them to feel welcome and be British. By not telling the truth about our ageing population and our desperate need for more migrants and our dependence on them.

Our polling, cited here, shows a majority of people think the government is being too cautious about moving towards closer relations with the EU, and that closer trade relations would boost economic growth.

So, I thought i'd check in on Reform's actual plans for running councils and they're every bit as laughably <SHIT> as you'd imagine

Labour likely to take a total drubbing in today’s election & it’s fully deserved.

The lesson I fear they’ll fail to learn is:
You cannot win on anti-migrant hatred.
The right wing press will never tell their voters you have done enough.
And meanwhile, of course, you lose all the rest of us #r4today

If you’re considering voting Reform today to punish the big 2 parties, don’t punish them by voting for a complete lying twat. All that does is encourage politics to get more twatty!
I get the punishment narrative, I feel the same, but punish in a better way FFS.

Imagine not being able to sell ‘greater opportunities for young people’ as a huge win, but instead getting defensively tied up in the mean-spirited, anti-immigration bullshit of opposing, right wing political parties. Keeping the Daily Mail quiet by dumping on the next generation. Wretched.
