Keir Starmer has ensured that US Blackrock are going to buy up critical infrastructure under their Infrastructure Imperative.
This is PPP on steroids.

Let’s call out a lie.

Those that continue to support Brexit despite the growing damage both economically and socially that it is bringing are not patriots, quite to opposite in fact. True patriots want the country and its people to thrive, not become poorer.

Fixing Brexit’s damage isn’t ‘betrayal’
Every attempt to limit Brexit’s damage is branded a “betrayal” – but it’s the broken promises of 2016 that still haunt Britain

Those observing Christmas are celebrating a family of asylum seekers. If there is indeed a "War on Christmas," it's being waged by those trying to make our country less safe for the poor, for the marginalized, and for refugees.

“Miss, do you agree with the sign?”

“Absolutely not. My great niece was 4 months pregnant and her fetus had no skull. And because of men involving themselves in women’s bodies she was forced to deliver the fetus… there’s a reason God created medicine.”🔥

Merry Christmas.

Trickle-down economics is a cruel hoax designed to enrich the wealthy and corporations while draining money for the middle class and the poor.

Pass it on to a conservative family member near you.

Interesting point.
I don’t know how I missed this, but every tech person should get this instinctively.

What do we do when network traffic is overwhelming our systems? We block the source.

Shouldn’t cities do the same?
Car traffic is a DDoS attack on cities.

Syria shows that the refugee system works. People sought asylum and returned when they felt safe.

More will return if Syria further stabilizes. Forced returns are not needed nor helpful, they are just suggested for cheap populist tricks.

I believe millions of refugees would return to their home countries if they had the opportunity to be part of the rebuilding if they felt save for themselves & their families & their countries were truly trying to rebuild.

Nigel Farage would not want this to be known. Pass it on.
In the year since the dictator Assad was overturned, 3.2 million refugees have returned to Syria. Many more are waiting for the rebuilding of essential infrastructure, now underway. That’s quite a success story.

This is ridiculous. There clearly has not been a 660% increase in terrorism
in the UK over the past year.

How much is it costing the criminal justice system to arrest and prosecute all these people for the crime of wearing a t-shirt or holding a placard?

Terrorism arrests soar by 660% after Palestine Action ban
Official figures show 1,630, or 86%, of the 1,886 arrests for terrorism-related activity in the year to the end of September 2025 were linked to supporting the group.

Want to see billionaire brainwashing in action?

Seven out of ten Brits are big fans of renewable energy and want to see lots more of it.

But they think the majority of people DON’T support it.

That disconnect isn’t an accident. 🧵

as a longtime Firefox user, I guess I understand why the desperate megacorps who sunk billions into AI are still frantically trying to make us choke on it by jamming it in everywhere uninvited, but I'm surprised anyone new is still pivoting to AI. guys do you really not feel the crash a-comin'?

The population of any life-form increases until it exceeds the carrying capacity of its environment - at which point, by one means or another, it collapses.
I’m constantly amazed that so many people who should know better think humans alone are immune to this.

If progressives want to normalize and accept Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) then you will lose me forever. This is not something that will ever be ok with me.

Religion is toxic to human rights:

Female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) affects over 230 million women and girls around the world. It is a global issue that occurs in over 90 countries across Africa, Asia, the Middle East and within diaspora communities worldwide.
