Instead of representing his constituents at home, Farage has been actively encouraging a foreign power (Trump) to make the British people poorer.

Really good fightback by Maguire. ~AA
Kevin Maguire: "If you're put up in a hotel & you get meals you get £10/wk.. all these terrible myths.. free iPads.. myths & lies have gone mainstream & we've got to challenge them.. we've gone back to the worst aspects of the 1970s where racism is becoming mainstream"

Well said

The Telegraph today carries a news story about someone paying £7.4 million for a handbag (Hello, Lady Bracknell!). And an opinion piece describing a wealth tax as a ‘moral abomination’. What a time to be alive.

Plenty of people & businesses who are all for the UK/EU reset deal.

Maybe if Badenoch & Farage took time to talk to these businesses they might learn something, oh wait it doesn’t benefit their millionaire mates so they won’t!

The stages in MAGA responding to a negative story:
1: It's all lies
2: Most of it is lies
3: Some of it's true, but it doesn't matter
4. It's all true, but it's fine when we do it
5. F**k you

They are arguing, endlessly, that illegally inciting acts of terror online is ‘free speech’ while silencing dissent, targeting journalists & telling an invaded ally what he is & is not allowed to say during a live television broadcast are all fine.

🇪🇺 54% of Brits think the UK should be trading MORE with the EU - more than any other trading partner.

The Tories say the government should be prioritising UK-US trade over UK-EU. The public disagrees.

Migration is a net benefit to the UK.

Socially, culturally - and economically.
All Badenoch's questions to Starmer at #PMQs were about immigration - and how to reduce it.

But no one thought to mention this.

A 2018 study by Oxford Economics found the average migrant contributed £440 more to the public purse per year than a 'native', AND cost the NHS less.

Wow. Imagine the shock for the Daily Mail when it finds out Tory plans were for fines of £5k - later reduced to £3k - for each missed heat pump sale. What Ed Miliband has done is to reduce that to £500. As @torstenbell.bsky.social says today Headline should read “Miliband slashes Tory boiler tax”

It's genuinely mad how many people can be persuaded to go to bat for the interests of the wealthy & powerful but if people turn out to protest for the oppressed our press & the usual meatheads crucify them.

We have an unsustainable serf mentality in this country that we urgently need to get over.

Do you remember these same people’s reaction any time a Labour shadow minister supported a junior doctors’ picket?

“When WE do it, it’s patriotic…”
Naturally, all those people who screwed farms with Brexit, not replacing EU subsidies, letting climate change wreck the countryside, and doing terrible deals that put farms at a competitive disadvantage, are today on the front of their picket line, all bad blood forgotten. ~AA
