BREAKING: AOC on MTG retiring:

"She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Gosh. What a surprise.
🚨 BREAKING: Kent County Council is hurtling towards financial oblivion under Reform.

A shocking new council report reveals a projected budget black hole of £46.5 million for this year. The Reform Administration has completely lost control of our finances. 🔶

Personalized gold bars from the Swiss.
Used jumbo jet from Qatar.
Huge amounts of $$$ from crypto.

The amount of corruption in the White House is at unconscionable levels. We need some real serious ethics across the federal government.

Donald Trump is allowing Big Oil to belch harmful pollutants into our air.

I’m forcing a vote today on my resolution with @senwhitehouse.bsky.social to stop the EPA from giving oil and gas companies the ability to emit copious quantities of harmful methane.

Touched down in Abu Dhabi.

I’m here to strengthen Canada’s economic partnership with the UAE, meet with business leaders looking to invest in Canada, and unlock new export opportunities to benefit Canadian workers and businesses.

The next Westminster GE will be a fight between English Greens and English Reform.
Scotland will be a major @snp.org win and Northern Ireland a Sinn Féin win.
The UK is dead. Let’s bury it.

I hope that all of us here in Scotland can see through this ploy. We should vote for a Scottish indy party at next year's HR election. If rUK votes in Your Party (very unlikely) then fine. Then let's see if they deliver. However, a throwaway ad hoc comment is not the basis on which I'll be voting!
EXCLUSIVE: Jeremy Corbyn has agreed with suggestions that electing Your Party MPs at Westminster could be the best route to Scottish independence

I hope every Labour MP considering whether to support Shabana Mahmood's asylum plans remembers Nigel Farage's assessment that the “Home Secretary sounds like a Reform supporter.”

If they support them they will too.

Just wilful performative cruelty that is entirely out of step with the majority of British people.

How many Labour MPs got into politics in order to vote for stealing jewellery off of people seeking refuge from war and persecution?

No Wes Streeting, the BMA is not acting like a cartel. It’s acting like a trade union. And frankly it’s disgusting to hear you talk like this while huge numbers of doctors can’t get NHS jobs because you haven’t created them, while millions of patients are on waiting lists🚨🚨🚨
