UK. Old. Atheist. Liberal-minded, tolerant. Allergic to right-wing bigotry and most religion. Like books, music, theatre, history, arts in general. Like Europe and European culture.

Anyone else not got a goddamn clue where this idiot is at anymore with his Strait of Hormuz shenanigans? 🤷‍♂️ Trouble is… I think the orange buffoon has even less of a clue than any of us lot! #PointlessWar

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Farage really is utterly repulsive. A racist, misogynistic, Nazi-sympathising, hate-filled grifting arsehole. And v much not a school boy any more, so god knows what his excuse will be this time. Totally unfit for office. This should be career-ending. The fact that it won’t be is deeply depressing.

We didn't just find his videos - we also found Farage's outtakes, which show when his money-making sideline is interrupted by a text message or phone call, requiring him to re-record the video, he appears quick to anger.

I thought he didn’t need anyone else’s help, and it was virtually ‘job done’ . I’d say “ you started this, you and Netanyahu finish it off”

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party. This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

Is there any more laughable joke than supporters of Trump (unable to explain his irrational behaviour) claim he’s playing a complex game of diplomatic or economic chess ?

Forked tongue from Jeff Landry, Trump’s ‘envoy’ to Greenland "The US has always been a welcoming party. We don't go in there trying to conquer anybody and trying to take over anybody's country. We say, 'Listen. We represent liberty. We represented economic strength. We represent protection.'"

The folks who wanted to leave the EU and end free movement - include Farage himself - chose this outcome and are fully responsible for it. And the Mail article repeats the "travel insurance" and "return ticket" falsehoods from the Times article. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office.

Of course the US is more than pleased to force Ukraine to make concessions to their (America’s) ally Russia. Let’s never forget exactly who the aggressor is here..
