Opinionated, stroppy old bag who hates Tories, Zionists and other arseholes. And my god, there are far too many arseholes.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

I wish more people were aware of this. Considering the scale of the threat, the media's near-silence is both remarkable and culpable.

"We will always be on the side of working people", Farage's 'Letter to the Nation' says today.
What he neglects to admit is that Reform plans to cut £300+ billion from the public services that these "working people" rely on every day.

As for Farage’s use of racist slurs being confined to his childhood - well, that's not what Alan Sked, the founder of UKIP, claimed in this 2014 interview.
He says here that Farage was using the "n" word as late as 1997.
Farage would have been about 33 at time.

Everyone: What's government doing about the cost of living crisis, the climate crisis, and the unfolding genocide in Gaza?
Labour: "We will mandate people carry Brit cards".
This government's priorities are painfully out of touch and increasingly authoritarian.

Sickening behavior by this agent. The fact that Mayor Adams has rolled out the red carpet for ICE is a stain on our city.
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

@theguardian.com I'm glad you won the case against Noel Clarke, but does it justify 7 pages, including the cover, of gloating over it?
Tucked away inside is a small section re Gaza; considering most people aren't aware how grim things are there I think this shows poor judgement on your part.

If the world fails to get a grip on carbon emissions, by 2100 the temperature rise could be 4.3 degrees.
For Eastbourne, this will mean sea level rises of between 11- 43 inches. These models are reliable as they correlate well with historic data from tide gauges.

The sea is rising, Eastbourne will flood – what’s the plan?
Future flooding from the sea is now a reality. There are no clear long-term plans for this. What will this mean for towns like Eastbourne?
