Yes. Stop Farage. Stop Reform. Stop the corruption. Stop the racism. Stop the misogyny. Stop the hatred. Stop the cruelty. Stop the incompetence. Stop the division. Stop the threats. Stop the fascism. Stop the failure. Just, ffs, stop him.

Plenty have clocked how Nigel Farage talks to women journalists — pure condescension: “listen, love,” “go write your silly little story.” Know your place. No shock from a man who praises Andrew Tate. The real surprise? It’s only being called out now.

💥 GOOD. Because that £240 million contract gifted to Palantir, with no competition… …after Starmer had an off-the-books meeting with Mandelson and Palantir… …while Mandelson was officially LOBBYING FOR Palantir and so personally financially benefiting from such links and contracts… Stinks.

A reminder that Reform's candidate for Gorton and Denton, Matt Goodwin, has still not explained what he meant by this claim that developments in genetic science will make younger generations more right wing as they understand the "inherent differences" between different groups

Damn, between that PR who got shitcanned for being abusive about Diane Abbot and Peter here, it looks like the period of being Resigned In Disgrace before being picked up again by your mates at horrific right wing media outlets is down to, what, maybe two months.

Minneapolis Mayor says video shows DHS claims of self-defense are “bullshit.” He says ICE created the situation & made it worse. His message to ICE: “Get the fuck out of Minneapolis." He encourages citizens not to take the bait & rise to the occasion. "Let's show them unity."

The truth about this incident will emerge. Plenty of people took video; the shooting will be analyzed. A badge is not a license to shoot. Deadly force can’t be used unless an agent reasonably believes their life/the lives of other are at risk. Law enforcement’s job is to protect & serve.

A US citizen has apparently been shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis. I’m gathering information, but the situation on the ground is volatile. ICE should leave now for everyone’s safety.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

"He's done everything he could to break down this country, and now he's going off to tell everyone abroad how broken we are." Nigel Farage loves the UK so much, he flew to America this week to tell Congress how awful it is. Is this patriotism?

Reform has lost 11 councillors and 2 MPs in a matter of months… and when I say ‘lost’ I mean, they’ve quit following rows, impropriety or inability to do their jobs. So, if Brexit weren’t proof enough, then this barrelling shitshow should confirm forever that they should be nowhere near govt.

Remember, the govt can ALWAYS print money. They own the money supply. They can also tax the super rich. Children going hungry? Not in my name. #wealthtax

Children in England ‘living in almost Dickensian levels of poverty’. Not enough water to wash, a bed, decent food, rats biting through walls, mouldy rooms. Result of years of real wage/benefit cuts. 4.5m children live in poverty due to political choices. Govt can end two child benefit cap.

Cowardly, lying bag of wind. Russia needed no “excuse” at all to invade and bomb the hell out of Ukraine. It went ahead in the face of repeated appeasements, just taking bigger bites and wasting nearly 1million 🇷🇺 troops to death & injury to that end

Trump says Ukraine gave Russia a reason to "go in and bomb the hell out of them" with its attacks on Russian military airfields.

Cooper’s full answer suggested they are pairing this with increased pay with care workers. Which sounds good in isolation but…will there be more money for local government to fund higher care worker pay? And if there isn’t then won’t this deepen already acute local govt funding crisis?

Fucking hell. I know nobody’s in greasy overalls for you to fetishise, Labour, but this is still an industry full of working people on marginal incomes that you are voluntarily destroying, you dumb tech-fetishising goons. You just sold us for corporate strip-mining. Up the workers.

Aren’t you spitting furious? Zero excuse for the filthy rich Windsors hoovering up public money. While most scrape by, winter fuel/benefits cut again, councils are bankrupt, NHS threatened with more privatisation & nasties scapegoat migrants & refugees.

Got round to reading Farage two page “manifesto” in yesterday’s Mail. Populist slogans/unfunded promises strung together in a piece designed to portray 🇬🇧 as third world. But how about this for nerve from Mr Brexit? “The casual lies and careless attitudes of our political class have let people down”.

MAGAs are tracking autism, menstrual cycles, criticism of Trump, criticism of Israel, Trans people, & anyone who even dares whisper DEI—but NOT vaccination rates, measles, COVID, firearms, firearm deaths, climate change, or food regulations. This is an unholy recipe for fascism & national disaster.

They did, and you can read the letters written by Roman aristocrats living in Gaul who had basically given up on trying to fix anything and retreated to a comfortable self-exile on their vast estates

I wonder if Roman elites watching the fall of their empire also thought: “This is so stupid.”

These stupid fking people! 🤬 Immigrants pay BILLIONS in taxes yearly and don’t receive benefits. Republicans keep talking about the solvency of social security, so here’s a thought - how about we DON’T deport the people who are contributing billions of dollars into the system.

Small boats form a tiny proportion of arrivals. The vast majority - well over 90% - of arrivals come with visas approved by the government, usually to work. So why do many people believe that immigration is out of control?
