I have no idea why Prince William is sitting down with a rapist and convicted felon. I don’t give a single shit he’s a working Royal. When men sit down with rapists and smile for cameras you’re normalising rape.

My 16-year-old granddaughter is showing great talent in stage production and dreams of a career in film production. She’s exploring potential apprenticeships in the industry. Any advice or opportunities? 🎥🎭 #FilmProduction #Apprenticeships #CreativeCareers #FutureFilmmaker

Wealth tax is the best way forward
Left: Keir Starmer, "Nobody felt better off under the last government"

Right: "The UK's rich are getting richer"

This is why so many have called for a wealth tax on those with over £10m, because the rich are getting richer, even under the last Conservative government

Why is the government not capable wiping the floor with Nigel Farage every single day like this? Alastair Campbell effortlessly destroys him over his Brexit legacy which by almost every economic and financial measure has been disastrous for the country

Alastair Campbell roasting a rattled Nigel Farage.🔥

“You are somebody who will exploit any problem going for your own political ends. Brexit was a fundamentally damaging thing to this country. That is your one legacy and you now don’t even want to talk about it.”

Nigel Farage isn't the answer to our problems, Britain. He is the cause of them.

Until my country can work that very simple puzzle out we are doomed.

Wonder if news editors are going to realize people knew about an actual coup an hour-plus earlier on bluesky than twitter. Hearing a lot of that rumbling from old friends still in the legacy content mines today.

This single paragraph explanation of the 2008 financial crisis by Prof Mark Blyth cannot be shared enough.
It will happen again.

Amid all the gloom and doom at the moment, just occasionally a bright shaft of light and hope breaks through to warm the heart. It looks like creepy crowdfunded clerical cosplay conman Calvin Clown’s online begging grift has ground to a halt at $707. Not a dime for two weeks. 😀

Roman emperor's liked to keep fish in their's which is why the French use the word piscine from the Latin piscina, piscis meaning fish 🐟

Not in fact from the English word to urinate 🌿💃
