New proposals that would force poorly paid migrant workers to wait longer for earned settlement are nothing more than an assault on working-class people, says Unison’s general secretary Andrea Egan

An unbelievable attempt to sanitise this man and normalise what’s he’s done.

Tommy Robinson endorsed Matt Goodwin today, and he’s fine with it. No disavowing.
Remember this #GortonAndDenton, #Manchester, the Reform UK candidate is happy with his support.

Typical cheaters tactics 🙄. If you get caught claim it's a mistake and "☹️Sorry, our bad, it won't happen again!" EXCEPT it is reported that they did that in Caerphilly too😡
Reform seems to think that the only way they can win in #GortonandDenton is by breaking electoral law.
Desperation is setting in.

Watching the usual political circus unfold.
Mandelson is now playing the usual lightning-rod role for an outraged political establishment. Little to no acknowledgement he’s the tip of an iceberg.
This is part of a political culture that’s pushing our democracy towards corporate oligarchy.

If this is what's going on now, just imagine the levels of corruption we'd descend into if the Farage cult got anywhere near Number 10.
Reform UK Ltd. are basically a front for foreign and offshore wealth and oligarchy.
Britain would become nothing more than an ATM.

It's rare to see how lobbyists operate. But the Epstein-Mandelson correspondence shows us what happens all the time: plutocrats and government ministers conspiring against the public interest. This is why all lobbying should be in the public domain, but despite Labour and Con promises, it's not. 🧵

The whole point of Americans being allowed to carry guns in the constitution
Is to be able to stop this kind of nonsense
So it will be interesting to see if Americans actually do what the constitution is designed to let them do

15 years ago I borrowed a bulletproof vest from a reporter so I could report from a war zone. I held onto it after I returned.
Last week the reporter finally asked for it back because he is headed to Minneapolis.
