Happy Family Tech Support Day to those who celebrate it.

I am delighted to hear that the #uk Government will stop limiting welfare benefit payments to two children. This was the single largest reason for child poverty in the UK. It was done to punish those who the #conservative party thought were immoral. Ironic given the desire for #borisjohnson to […]

"By 2025, Brexit had reduced UK GDP by 6% to 8%, with the impact accumulating gradually over time. We estimate that investment was reduced by between 12% and 18%, employment by 3% to 4% and productivity by 3% to 4%"

The #us backed deal on #ukraine is actually a business agreement with #Russia. Many around #trump want access to the Russian market and Ukranian asset, this enables that. Again to be clear #trumpw was voted in to do this, he has the backing of the #american people to exteract value from the […]

Former leader of #reformuk in #wales given 10 years in prison for taking money to push a #russian agenda.

For those not familiar with UK politics, #reshituk is the party leed by #NigelFarage.

#uk #COVID enquiry finds 23k people in #england died needlessly and largely due a toxic and chaotic culture created by #borisjohnson and #dominiccummings , no surprise as Johnson was useless, believed it was little more than a flu and was quoted as having said "let the bodies pile high". That […]

#hamas regularly used human shields in #gaza which is totally sick. Now we find out that unsurprisingly the #idf #israel allegedly did the same thing - this time from a former #israeli soldier. The policy of #isreal was to exterminate or starve the #gazans and sadly #Hamas were also complicit in […]

Tragic, scientist James Watson, co-discoverer of the structure of DNA, has aged 97

Probably one of the biggest discoveries ever in science. A key to so much of life. Thanks!

#hamas has been killing people in #gaza in preparation for the cease fire. While the actions of #israel rightly got confirmed it is with remembering that Hamas is not an organ that is vaguely interested in the people of #Gaza. They are only interested in killing and exploiting people for their […]

The #uk executed many women for #witchcraft when the #church #ignorance and dodgy #judges ruled the day. While it may seem pointless 100s of years later to pardon the women murdered by the state, it should be done.

As a relatively recent example from the UK tells is... 15 y/o Kristy Bamu was […]

According to #tommyrobinson (allegedly) last week 200,000 #muslim gay men sailed on rafts from #france and stole all the straight women in #england. Now there are no women left as they all ran off to start their gay relationships with these men. Gay Muslims literally are stealing all the women […]

#france will today lay to rest #robertbadinter in the Pantheon alongside #mariecurie and #victorhugo. Badinter was responsible for abolising the #deathpenalty in France. Therefore, he can be seen as someone who went against the populists and back then won. He died in 2024 and today marks the […]

A potential future UK #pm has called for the removal of judges that disagree with him. #RobertJenrick is the shadow justice secretary, given his dodgy party funding history I cannot help but see the link between his past and wanting to remove judges who may pose a threat to him, just in case he […]

Regardless my views on #netanyahu I really hope that the #israeli hostages are released. While #Netanyahu is little more than a modern fascist and should spend the rest of his days in jail, the #hostages deserve to be free.

#israel has decided to invite #tommyrobinson , this has been condembed by the Jewish Board of Deputies in the UK. Robinson is a #facist .... He should be in jail, not on the streets let alone being invited by Isreal.

To my #jewish friends, I am so angry and sad to hear that your community has been attacked in #manchester. May the victims rest in peace. Anti-Semitic attacks are disgustingly on the rise across the world. We must never tolerate attacks on entire communities just because of who the people are.
