You are morally obligated to vote for the party enacting policy beyond what Tommy Robinson could even hope lest you empower a party merely promising what he wants. How do I sleep at night? Soundly, thanks to this glorious horse that kicks me in the head before bedtime.
Congratulations to Labour who have won the coveted Tommy Robinson endorsement. Excited for sensibles to explain to me why I have to vote for the people enacting actual fascist policy.

Levels of destruction across #Gaza are harrowing.
According to the United Nations Satellite Centre, around 81% of all structures in Gaza are damaged.
Many buildings are at risk of collapse, especially given the imminent start of winter and rain.
UNRWA is helping families prepare for winter.

Just so, and even if we cynically and immorally judged that conceding to the far right across the board was worth it for the trade-offs, then what benefits exactly are the public getting? Nothing that is worth it even in the most bleak assessment.

The only Legitimate Concerns about asylum seekers are concerns for their well being and safety. For a rich country like ours to incessantly whine about these people as if we are their victims is perhaps the single most pathetic spectacle in British politics over the past quarter century.

I have no warm clothes, no dry place to sleep, and the weather is getting worse every hour.
