Is the Thatcherite, #AndyBurnham, and his pseudo #Labour government actively trying to hand this country to the far right? At a time when we haven’t been squeezed so hard since WW2, these scumbags want to squeeze us even more with taxes that will be passed on to us! Wtf are these idiots thinking?!?

This beggars belief. #UnitedUtilities illegally dump sewage in a national park, then it charges us to fix the it by destroying even more of the national park, and all as the scumabg Tory, #AndyBurnham, sits there like a nodding dog. Betrayed by our leaders again! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Oh look, the #riots in #France are due to the “ultra” left. Not the far left. That doesn’t sound scary enough anymore. Nothing to do with feudal levels of inequality, fuelled by corrupt officials bending over for billiinaire crypto-fascists. It was the ultra Left (if you can believe it!)

There was a time when openly selling hashish on Facebook marketplace would have at least gotten a mention by police or politicians. Not anymore. Even the pretence that these platforms aren’t above the law is now gone. You dan also buy stacks of fake £20 notes. Crazy.

1/3: This #Reform pantomime is getting beyond a joke. The #DowningStreet cat has more chance of becoming #PM than the Huguenot grifter. And what did it cost for a year long undercover investigation to reveal what never hidden to begin with? That’s where your license fee is going.

2/2: We have #ITV, #BBC, LBC, Sky, every broadsheet, every red top, and every little social media chancer yakking on, endlessly, about six talentless little nobodies. It’s clickbait for the Right and ragebait for the Left, and it’s all about the money. This isn’t breaking news, this is making news.

3/3: It’s not journalism, it’s churnalism. Anybody amplifying Farage and Deform can never ever claim to be anti-racist.Not while making a living from racism itself. Give it a rest. It won’t make us forget about the Epstein Files or that government is up to its elbows in genocide and war crimes.

Yet again we have the #Guardian amplifying the tedious ramblings of the absolute nobody and the most corrupt little traitor to this country, who’ll bend over and drop his pants for anybody with a handful of £50 notes, Nigel “Lord Haw Haw” #Farage.

What attacks on Europe? This is the #Guardian acting as an anti #Russia propaganda sheet for the defence industry. Here at home we choose between heating and eating and our so called government is pouring billions into foreign wars that are none of out business. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

theguardian.comThe more Putin escalates his attacks on Europe, the more Europe should support Ukraine | Timothy Garton AshMoscow’s imperialist strongman believes decadent European democracies can be cowed. Our job is to prove him wrong, says Guardian columnist Timothy Garton Ash

“For others his style, more radical and provocative than previous Green leaders, has allowed the party to shift to extreme positions, particularly on Israel…” #TheGuardian showing its true,Zionist shill colours yet again. Opposing e nazi regime is extremism, according to this pseudo liberal rag.

A result! I must be getting something right if I’ve been called a “bot” for talking about the things Burnham doesn’t want you to talk about.

This should terrify all of us around the world, but I doubt we’ll even see one headline about it. #DonaldTrump has just banned the #OSCE from monitoring the #MidTerms. The only other countries to do this are #Russia and #Belarus. We’re watching the groundwork for a coup being laid.

Notice how the people who used to rattle on about some shadowy “new world order” taking over, are now the ones supporting it.

10 things Burnham doesn’t want you to talk about; 1. Labour’s support for Gaza genocide 2. Climate change 3. Wealth Taxes 4. Transphobic Section 28 5. Rent controls 6. Man City 7. State Pensions in neighboring countries 8. Water nationalisation 9. Mandelson 10. Labour’s support for Trump’s Iran war

So, just to clarify, gutting regulation around house building would save £50k per house and the developers are going to pass that £50k on to the buyers? Because house builders are known got being notoriously generous. The shit these scumbags come out with is insulting.

I hope all those convinced by the bullshiter #AndyBurnham see this and think twice. He doesn’t represent change. He represents neo liberalism and corporate corrupt. Hr makes #Thatcher look like a bleeding heart liberal. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

theguardian.comRecent lobbyist for Palantir had key role in helping Andy Burnham become PMExclusive: Martha Dalton worked closely with Burnham’s team on byelection that secured his return to parliament

The Dubai to #Israel flight story, as told by #Netenyahu, is about as convincing as the Iranian terrorist connection to petrol theft near RAF Rainsford, or #DonaldTrunps claims that he won in 2020. It’s absolute nonsense.

This is exactly how the goalposts are moved to the left and right. By framing social care and vague mutterings about electoral reform,and closer economic ties with the EU as “radical” makes it seem as though #Burnham is a radical leftist when he’s barely centre. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

94 year old Jewish human rights barrister, Margaret Owen arrested under the Terrorism Act outside andy burnham's Labour Party conference. UK taxpayers are funding these arrests while masked men terrorise the streets in coastal towns. Lift The Ban on Palestine Action.

I’m not buying any of this #RAFRainford BS. Between #Trump, #ScotlandYard and #WesStreeting they can’t even get their story straight, but this will play out as justification for our Zionist owned politicians to justify our involvement in an illegal US war.

theguardian.comUK security forces were aware of RAF Fairford suspected bomb plot, hints defence secretaryWes Streeting indicates farmer who alerted police and said security forces had ‘dropped the ball’ only ‘had a partial picture’

This is starting to stink already. What kind of “terrorists” set out to bomb a military base? Terrorists go for soft targets. That’s just basic. I smell Mi5 up to dirty tricks again.

Police were holding five men on Monday and examining suspected explosives found near a U.S.-operated air force base in England, as counterterror detectives investigated whether the arrests foiled an attempted attack linked to Iran.

So, for clarity, the #Trump administration hadn’t, in fact, been working on this case for months as part of a multi national, multi-agency task force, as Trump himself declared to reporters yesterday. What a wanker. The man is incapable of anything but utter, nonsensical fiction.

#ShabanaMahmood is absolutely awful. She’s this right wing #Labour party’s Suella Braverman, a completely unhinged loon trying to appear even more racist than fking “Tommo”. And Rayner’s not much better. This country has been circling the drain for decades. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

1/2: Once again #TheGuardian is whistling that dog. You’d think in a piece like this there’d be balance by talking about what other communities have been given for security. But that would mean reporting that the Jewish Community - which makes up a tiny 0.5% of the population, compared to 6.5%…

2/2…for the Muslim community - has received £309 million this year alone. So despite this dog whistle headline, the Muslim community, bigger by far and in need of much more security, gets small change while Israel gets £309 MILLION to help them murder children. www.theguardian.com/news/2026/se...
