Children v pubs? Says it all. Reform- have to be pissed to vote for them
Nigel Farage is going to "save pubs" by cutting 5p off the price of a pint of beer...

The £3 billion cost will be funded by reinstating the two-child benefit limit.

This might be the worst policy anyone has ever come up with.

Nigel Farage's party had promised to back scrapping the two-child benefit limit, but now Reform intends to funnel the support to the most vulnerable into slashing prices in pubs

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

State sanctioned terrorists.

It's like the Black and Tans.
This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

To provide those of us who have an interest in democracy with more evidence to urgently reform the laws around the funding of political parties, lobby groups, think tanks and so on?

Agreed. I’m old enough to remember the controversy featuring Nick Griffin coming on Question Time. Many anti-fascists wanted him banned from it. Demos outside TV Centre etc. Bonnie Greer eviscerated him.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

As I explain in this article, it’s heartbreaking, the party that created the NHS now refuses to defend something as basic as public water.
From welfare to water - we need to remember who we are.

Labour is choosing to push 50,000 *more* children into poverty — and it is utterly disgraceful.
