Brexit dividend: our swimming waters are MUCH more polluted than any EU country's because we no longer have to follow EU environmental law since Brexit so water companies can get away with just about anything.

(Just one of many pesky EU rules Brexiters hated.)

So, Farage calls criticism of his latest batshittery “nonsense” but also says he’s not clever enough to answer questions about it. Because that’s how voters get treated now. With total contempt. Fed unserious populist garbage because it’s easier than thinking and it winds up the libs.

Launching the U.S. into what could be yet another unpopular and costly forever war, while simultaneously pushing for an unpopular budget bill at home that will take food and healthcare away from millions of people.

He was humiliated last weekend. This weekend he bombed someone.

My guess is there is a relationship between those two events.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

We will be properly honouring ‘Daniel Hannan Day’ on Tuesday with all the requisite pomp, circumstance & documentary evidence of what an irredeemable arse he is that you would expect. Elevating our world’s wrongest man to the House of Lords will always be the essence of Brexit.
Do join us…
24 June 2025 is this Tuesday coming.
There's still time.
Don't stop Beleaving.

Hearing this from quite a few people in Reform UK-controlled councils. From a local reader:

"There are rumours as in other Reform UK controlled councils that a number of those elected stood to ‘make up numbers’ & never thought they would be elected & now don’t feel able to commit the time required"

Everything that's happening in his second term was easily foreseeable...because he literally campaigned on this! This was his platform. Anyone trying to deny otherwise is lying to themselves.

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there.

What an unbelievable asshole.

Says the man who gave us the biggest tax burden since the War, highest ever national debt, largest fall in living standards on record and committed the biggest act of self-harm in our history with Brexit. Time to shut the fuck up you shambling oaf.
