Why are the media trying to act like it’s 2016 instead of 2026. The vast majority want to rejoin the EU or at the very least, the single market and Customs Union? So shut the fuck up.

Followers will know I'm far from an uncritical Andy Burnham or Labour fan. But as Prime Minister of an actual government, with a huge majority, I'd say he has more of a mandate than a part-time MP leading a bunch of racist malcontents forever falling out with each other! Wouldn't you?

This is not how American democracy should function. It’s getting worse every election, not better. I know constitutional amendments are difficult, but it seems like there should be a bipartisan supermajority of citizens who say enough with this stuff.

This fake Christian grifter funnels off over $700,000 from just *one* of his many "charities." And he pays no taxes--because he's a "Christian" who doesn't delve into politics. TAX THE CHURCHES.

We were too spineless to regulate these billionaire freaks, so now one of them gets to decide whether Ukrainian drones can catch the missiles aimed at Ukrainian kids. We have failed spectacularly.

Approving the Jackdaw gas field solves none of our problems, while contributing to the existential crisis of climate breakdown. The government has privileged special interests above the general interest. It's a shameful, cowardly decision.

Burnham urges officials to come up with more radical options for Thames Water. Here are some suggestions. Enforce laws. Prosecute execs for harming health, environment. Cancel licence to operate. Put TW into special administration. Nationalise at knockdown price. Apply to all water companies.
