41% of Tommy Robinson and Nigel Farage's followers who got arrested at the Riots last year had previous for Domestic Abuse.

But apparently it is immigrants who are the problem and not your friendly patriotic wife beater.

Absolutely shameful from #Starmer
Almost 20 European leaders, incl Emmanuel Marcon & Friedrich Merz, plus VDL, have posted in support of @ZelenskyyUa after White House showdown.

Notably, Keir Starmer has not. No 10 is referring reporters to PM’s comments this week on a just & lasting peace, with Ukraine at heart of talks.

Robert Kennedy said if he had a time
machine he would go back and stop his kids from getting their vaccine shots. Really, Robert? Those are the shots you would stop in the past when it comes to your family?

Alan Cummings “Scottish” accent on the US #Traitors is at Dick Van Dyke levels of atrociousness.

Except he’s actually Scottish!

How’s day 1 of the Trump Presidency going? Well we’re at full on Nazi salutes already.

Wasn’t expecting that until August at the earliest tbh.
Trump's right hand man (literally) just casually giving the Nazi salute... twice.

Merry Christmas to everyone.

We’ve not sent Christmas cards this year. Instead we’ve decided to donate the money to Tescos, in exchange for wine, beer and vodka.

Lots of love.

A brilliant piece of journalism. Ironically an article about a man who abhors bad language, is almost guaranteed to make you swear.

Admittedly it’s an unlikely scenario, but if #LuigiMangio ever makes it to Leicester, I’ll happily buy him a pint.

I don’t accept the normalisation of #Reform . They are racist filth and anyone voting for them is racist.

If supporters claim otherwise they are either dishonest or stupid (or a combination of both).
