Happily retired but still youthful! Did zoology at Leeds Uni a long time ago, saw some great bands! Optimistic & generally cheerful!
Love vintage.
Shocking.
Senior DWP civil servant blames victims for carer’s allowance scandal.

Ridiculous.

People punished for providing unpaid care. Complex rules and cliff-edge limits result in benefits withdrawn for going over by pennies.

Thousands prosecuted. Meanwhile, no one charged for the Post Office scandal.

So will the media be all over the fact that Johnson and the tories caused 23000 covid deaths?

Nah...

Billionaires control the media.

The report into Boris Johnson’s record during the Covid epidemic blames a ‘toxic, sexist and chaotic culture’ in Downing Street. Who’d have thought it?

Can you let me know when Johnson’s trial for gross misconduct in public office/gross negligence manslaughter will be?
Just asking for a country beyond sick of having to suffer the consequences of these charlatans and their don’t-give-a-fuck-cos-we-don’t-need-to abuses of power.

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

"it is striking how many of the key players we have looked into — the people who have gone out of their way to put up hundreds of flags — seem anything but ordinary."

Good news from the Netherlands, where the liberal D66 party made big gains in the snap general election and is poised to lead a new coalition government.

The far-right PVV lost nearly a third of its seats in parliament and won't be part of the new government.

I called out a Reform MP’s racist comments in Parliament today.

I withdrew calling her a racist for her racist comments. But let’s be clear - racism has no place in Parliament or our politics.

So Lincolnshire Reform are now starting to lose Council members!!!
Never has a political Party that’s so popular (so MSM try to lead us to believe) haemorrhaged Councillors on a regular basis as Reform..

It’s mind boggling to be so popular with everyone but you own Councillors.. ohh and MPs (Lowe & Murdoch) ohh and Chairman Zia Yusuf who quit and rejoined 🙄🤷🏼‍♂️

It speaks volumes about the dire state of British politics that an MP can say that she gets mad about seeing Black and Asian people in adverts on TV and she hasn't immediately been expelled from her party - a party that hopes to form the next Govt.

Amazing what a decent government with decent Ministers can do.
County Lines

Since Labour came to power and invested in the County Lines Programme, record outcomes have been reported:

1,120 senior gang members charged

Over 2300 'deal lines' closed down

stabbings down 20% in county line areas

3,200 children & vulnerable people supported

More of this please!

Nigel Farage, Richard Tice, Dr David Bull, Paul Nuttall, still haven’t said a word about their MEP colleague from UKIP to Reform UK, the Reform UK Leader in Wales Nathan Gill.

8 charges of Russian bribery, all admitted.

Reform UK are on the hook for this.

Right-wing media fluffs Farage for years, to the point where he now leads the polls, and then start whining about Starmer being 'obsessed' when he starts telling some long overdue home truths. It's actually hilarious.

So what will reform's headline been today?

Me thinks it's time to throw the rightwing racists, fascists & ignorant trouble makers into the bin. Their agenda is clear...small state, low taxes, no public services, low wages & no workers' rights...Work until you drop.
Stop giving them publicity.
