How shit at business do you have to be, to be personally worth 37,000 times the amount an average UK worker will earn in a LIFETIME, and still be incapable of withstanding a tiny tax increase?

Shamina Begum must be held accountable for her actions when she was 15. Whereas I should not, because I was a mere child.

This is how the Mail has covered a 70% fall in net migration.
The Government should stop kidding itself it will ever get credit for being anti-migration. They could cut numbers to zero and there would still be front pages blasting them for making the UK a socialist wasteland no one wants to come to

Here's UKIP's former Scottish leader David Coburn, who has denied taking Russian bribes after being named in Whatsapp messages between Nathan Gill and a pawn of the Putin administration, being applauded by Gill for arguing against Ukraine's entry to the EU

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'.
It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game

For those that care about my opinion, I’ll state right now that Wes Streeting is a shit health secretary and would most likely be a shitter PM. *full disclosure, I’m one of those NHS bureaucrats that Wes seems to think is a waste of money.

Whole fucking thing makes me sick to my stomach. An abject fucking liar, a man who lies as easily as he fucking breathes, threatening an organisation which strives for truthfulness. And plastic patriots like the Mail and Farage urging him on. Jackels.

There is always money for war, never for the poor.
Every penny spent on bombs, tanks and missiles is stolen from our homes, schools and hospitals.
We are not going to take it anymore.

What the Reform MP said was appalling. The Tories’ refusal to condemn her is arguably worse

No other word for it.
It's shocking beyond belief that this sort of thing is somehow acceptable.

Everybody except the Greens seems to think the best way to fight Reform is to agree with Farage about everything.
This, right here, is brilliant. And genuinely patriotic. And so, so true.
