🤡 Brexiteers now reduced to defending their brexit shitshow with
“Don’t blame us - blame the people in power.”
But they chose the policy, set the red lines, poisoned the debate, and made the promises.

Correct - Russian population is 14-15% Muslim - and it's a land of massive ethnic and cultural diversity.
Putin apologists don't understand it in the slightest.

This is not true at all.
Russia is far more Muslim than most of Europe and North America, and that has nothing to do with why people hate Russia.
People hate Russia because it is an imperialist dictatorship that invades, rapes, and commits genocide against its neighbors

UK public has paid £200bn to shareholders of key industries since privatisation.
In public ownership that would have gone into infrastructure, lower bills.
Privatisation delivered low investment, high bills, no tax on dividends to foreign investors.
No end to nightmare without public ownership.

Even ordinary racists at Farage’s school considered him a super-racist.
Think about that.
What in Farage’s background had triggered such an unprecedented level of hatred of those who were different from him?

Somehow this got missed off the "Benefit Street" front pages today
70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.
