@pimlicat: "The PM is saying what Brits have known for years, that Brexit was sold to them on false promises.

Young people have been at the sharp end of a Brexit they didn't vote for, which has taken away freedoms that other generations took for granted."

they’ll sell off the care homes and get a one of payment of a few mill

The residents will no doubt be put in private homes
At 2-3 times the price of the council run homes
And no doubt some of the money will make its way to the councillor for social care
Who- oddly enough - owns private care homes

I visited the apartment building ICE raided on Tuesday today. Story to come, but you can walk right in. Half of the apartments have no doors on them. Children's stuff abandoned in some flats. *Citizen* residents told me they were arrested and held for hours in zipties. This is America

“The source told CBS News that [Kash Patel and Dan Bongino] asked for "large, beefy" agents to conduct an arrest of Comey "in full kit," including Kevlar vests and exterior wear emblazoned with the FBI logo.” The leadership of the FBI is now in the hands of infantile psychopaths.
The FBI is weighing an arrest and perp walk for Comey — and suspended an agent for refusing to help, sources say

A WILD ONE: A man broke his leg during an arrest by ICE at a car wash south of L.A.

ICE has held him under 24/7 guard at a hospital, registering him under a pseudonym, for *37 days* without telling him why.

A judge has ordered his immediate release.

Right now across the UK, hunts are secretly carrying out cubbing — the brutal training of hounds to kill by setting them on fox cubs.

Together, we can end cubbing — and end hunting once and for all.

This fox cub hunting animation is superb.

If you care about protecting UK wildlife I think following @protectthewild.bsky.social is a must.
Our latest animation exposing cub hunting has now been viewed over 1 MILLION times! Thank you to everyone who’s shared it and added their name to the call for a proper ban on hunting.
