If the UK is short of money for various things might I suggest we liquidate the royal estate - instantly bringing £16billion back to the nation. Seriously.

Disgraceful day from labour yesterday. They lost 2 voters in our house. No morals, no ethics and shit politics. I kept hoping they would get better but in truth they’re getting worse and have been a shambles since they took office. Relentlessly punching down & aping the worst of the Tories & Reform

This is why we’re in trouble. We’re electing people who think cutting costs on biscuits is a priority project. How did we get to this stage?

“Nigel Farage ranked 748th of 751 MEPs for attendance, went to 1 of 42 fishery committee meetings & was fined £35K for fiddling his expenses. As an MP he has held no surgeries, skipped 80% of votes and had ten jobs on the side” - More people should know this!

Musk’s cost-cutting goals are getting exponentially smaller as he’s slowly realizing that the government is not a car company.

I couldn’t give a shit about what James Vance says about the UK quite frankly. He is part of a fascist government so I take his criticism as a positive indictment of our society if anything

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful.

Breitbart?? 🤣 Jesus wept
The Pentagon has announced plans to “rotate” out The New York Times, NBC News, NPR & Politico from their offices at the Pentagon. In their place, Breitbart, OANN, the New York Post & HuffPost will take over.
We can all see where this is going..

@martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com hiya. My elderly parents have been left without any heating in their house for 4 months after a dodgy heat source pump installation. They paid the company £20,000 and have no heating still since October. Can you suggest anything to help?

Prediction. Trump overturns the TikTok ban in his first week. Clocks up a big free speech win and in return they have to flip the algo to promote alt right/ fascist content giving him control of all social media politically

It’s interesting that a key priority of the incoming oligarchy in the states is that they have prioritised gaining control of social media platforms and making owners bend the knee. This is a tacit sign these platforms are instruments of coercion and control. We should all have a think about that

I had a good read of the new national trust strategy and I love it. The document is beautifully simple and jargon free. Not easy when they have had 70,000 people feeding in. The 3 main goals are really motivating. And crucially - when talking about the climate - it is framed in positive terms 😍
"We’re more than up for the fight. But the sheer size of the challenge means we can’t do this alone. We’re going to need everyone to get their mates to help.”
