Probably best described as a pragmatic socialist, trans-inclusive feminist, proud LGBTQ+ ally, passionately pro rejoin EU, multi-cultural lover, fan of all the arts, Spurs fan, quite sweary, cat fosterer, old enough to take no shit. WOKE.

Ffs SkyNews has footage of the prisoner released in error being arrested, it's news he's back in custody but do we really need footage of him being arrested. The Tories released 672 prisoners in error between March 2013-March 2023, was there footage of them all being taken into custody.

Honestly TELL THE STORY. Won’t someone just tell the fucking story of how Brexit created this economic hardship, how a Muslim immigrant just saved the lives of those commuters on that train, won’t someone in politics or even media just connect the fucking dots and TELL THE STORY. IT’S RIGHT THERE

Finland knows that Socialism works.
They house all the homeless people, and have the least in the world.
They closed all paid Education in 1976 and now have the best education system in the world.
They are the happiest country in the world.
Be like Finland.

When did Charles Mountbatten Windsor know of the paedophile activities of Louis Mountbatten, Jimmy Savile, Bishop Ball. Surely security forces had warned him?

Can we please just fucking stop debating whether blatantly horrible racist things are racist or not? Everyone knows they’re racist, even the nasty arseholes who say them. If you need to fill your 24/7 channels, stick on some cartoons or something. People are getting hurt by this culture of evil.

I like how Zohran Mamdani scandals are like "He called his old cousin his aunt one time" and Andrew Cuomo scandals are like "He sexually assaulted 13 women."

The only decent argument I ever heard from anyone saying they don’t like being called “cis” was a friend who was a classicist saying they didn’t like it because it’s Latin and in Latin that C should be pronounced K

🚨Small boat migrants getting “private health care” while the rest of us have to use the NHS?!🚨
That’s outrageous!
Or is it?
Might the reality be a little more mundane and a little less clickbait-worthy?

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

White People’s Performative Ignorance Is Exhausting—Opinion
Disbelief over authoritarianism in America isn’t a cutesy personality trait. It’s a confession: You haven’t been paying attention.
