So @skynewss.bsky.social failed to cover Musk's N*zi salute. Have any other UK news broadcasters, or are we at the point where we normalise this shit now?

See also, the Nazi salutes are actually the fault of all the ‘hysterical wokies’ who explained exactly what was going to happen.
Looking forward to the right-wing media spending the next 24 hours explaining how an obvious Nazi salute really wasn't a Nazi salute, you stupid libs.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

This man has pocketed millions off the backs of thousands of bar staff, grafting through Christmas and NY for barely more than minimum wage.

The very same man who was soaking up the sun in the Maldives, just weeks before his company scrapped the real living wage. www.spottednews.com/politics/tuc...

This experiment with letting a small handful of people amass most of the wealth in a society and then inflict something devastating on the world when they reach middle age and realize no one likes them seems to have run its 5000-year course. We might not need to run additional trials.

Truth & Lies.

Mix Musk's interventions with Starmer's unpopularity, is it possible to separate the truth from the lies?

There is a point that is often brought up to defend the rich, that the richest 1% pay 22.4% of tax.

Which sounds like loads, until you realize they get 63% of the money.

Then you realize their taxes are far too low.

Terrific points.
We are just Germany in the 1930s instead of blaming Jews we are blaming migrants.

But they aren't responsible for Austerity, Brexit or the profiteering crisis.

🏴🏳️ Worth noting again how @worflags.org.uk managed to get their display spot on & pitch the mood just right. 🏟️

👑 The Kevin Keegan display will be special when it eventually arrives, but urging #NUFC to "Get into them" perfectly encapsulated what followed under the SJP lights. 💡

“It is beyond surreal that someone writes in a national newspaper that Liz Truss was a genius and Keir Starmer should walk the plank.”

@mrjamesob.bsky.social believes that Brexiteers are ‘still not ready to admit their mistake’ and so their response is to ‘overthrow the Government'.

1. Consent in our pseudo-democracies is strained at the best of times, but it hangs on the belief that there is some kind of justice: through inquiries, tribunals, sometimes even the law, powerful people who commit crimes against us will one day be held to account. But what if this no longer works?🧵

The problem with Margaret Thatcher is that she was a scumbag who looted the UK for her Neo-Conservative buddies, and she gave some crumbs to cover it up.

In her 11 years in charge she sold enough national assets to fund the NHS for 50 years.

What did you get?

A discount council house, at most.

🚨1,590 arrests, 1,015 charges
👮‍♂️17% of those arrested were children, 46% were 18-35 years old
