“Rather than generate “global Britain”, leaving the EU has had one simple effect: economic harm. Without Brexit, they [Britain’s services] would have done even better”

Ugh Brexit

What an endlessly tedious and costly drain on our resources, our prosperity and our patience

🚨 We’re shocked and disappointed.

The UK government has pushed through HUGE cuts to Universal Credit for disabled people applying in the future.

These cuts will be devastating. They risk pushing even more disabled people to food banks.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Sarah Smith BBC news just reported exactly what your caller predicted about US bombs potentially not doing that much damage and key components of Iran’s nuclear assets having been moved. Truly, the most astute callers to any radio show. Thanks for building it… 🙏

There is a chance that Trump's bombing of Iran might turn out to be the most ludicrous use of military force in US history. Not the worst or the most destructive--just the most absurd. A failed attempt by a weak man desperate for glory.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida.

If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.
