We need to get the Russian influences out of our politics.

Let’s never forget rationing ventilators and Zoom funerals. Boris Johnson and his cronies partied while our loved ones lay dying alone. COVID-19 was the worst public health crisis in a century. We should have locked down earlier. To some of us, PPE was not a get-rich-quick commodity.

Keep up the good work, everyone!

We’re steaming toward “government will respond” territory, but I think we can push it right through the “will be considered for debate” line and beyond, don't you?

It’s a sign of how insane the news cycle is these days that this historic failure of government policy got just one day of news coverage this week.

Not saying that’s right or wrong, but it’s astonishing how quickly the agenda moves on these days.
BREAKING: UK’s response to Covid was “too little too late”. Acting faster could have saved 23,000 lives in England according to the public inquiry.

Boris Johnson presided over a “toxic, sexist, chaotic culture” in No10, where rule-breaking seriously undermined public confidence.

91.5 tonnes of the "Russian" gold the country is now selling to stay afloat is actually the Romanian national treasure, sent to Russia for safekeeping during WW1, which has never been returned.

It's not just Reform, or Farage. The Tory Party's links to Russia need investigating.

For a decade, Russia has been seeking to divide Europe and America, to undermine NATO and weaken the transatlantic alliance. This peace plan, if accepted, will achieve that goal.

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

This is pretty striking and makes me wonder exactly what Labour have been up to in making policy seemingly in response to / fear of the former rather than the middle group.
Why do people think England flags have been raised on lampposts?

Hi Nigel Farage, why did you try to block EU scrutiny of Russian funding for nationalist and Eurosceptic MEPs?

You were one.
