⚡️ SHOCKING! Chris Bryant’s huge Brexit admission:
🫨16,000 fewer 🇬🇧 biz exporters after Brexit. Brexit crippled 🇬🇧 biz
That’s why
France/Germany are outperforming 🇬🇧
👉growth is weaker
👉wages are under pressure
Brexit used sovereignty as bait to deliver self-harm which benefits Russian 🇷🇺 aggression.

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

If flu is so bad in the UK should the gov extend the vaccine programme to include front line workers etc? Surely this would be more cost effective than everyone getting sick?

It's 6.30am in December, in torrential rain. I've just passed at least four people sleeping in closed shop and bank doorways on Station Road, Clacton. Farage has mentioned his constituency in Parliament just three times in a year and a half - re. winter fuel allowance and local elections.
Farage himself is currently in Abu Dhabi, representing his constituents at the Formula One...

Here is Pete Hegseth, on several occasions in 2016, lauding the military "ethos" that means they will refuse to follow unlawful orders - which he reckons is treason, now that they are his orders - because "there have to be consequences for abject war crimes".
Deserves to go viral.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.
