Zahawi can lead Reform's crackdown on tax avoidance. Plenty of experience.

Nadhim Zahawi MP: In Farage’s Britain, it would be legal to discriminate against me on the grounds of race conservativehome.com/2015/03/23/n...

2026: Nigel Farage lies about the vaccine rollout claiming the UK did it faster because of Brexit 2020:: Dr June Raine (CEO of the MHRA), "We have been able to authorise the supply of this vaccine using provisions under European law which exist until the first of January"

"More and more, Reform UK looks simply as if the Tories ran off stage, then came back on two minutes lates, wearing a comedy moustache-and-glasses disguise." A rebranding exercise of the most established party masquerading as anti-establishment that shows total contempt for voters. ~AA

Nadhim Zahawi would be frightened to live in a country run by Nigel Farage. Zahawi has deleted it, but it is too late.

I stand with @DeclassifiedUK.org - I've just signed my name. Join me in telling Westminster that you care about freedom of the press. secure.declassifieduk.org/page/178447/...

For 56 minutes Sky News and BBC News interrupted everything else and carried a Reform UK feed live, uninterrupted, unchallenged. The stream spluttered, froze, pixelated - dozens of times - still they stuck with it. FOR ONE HOUR. This is an editorial choice. No other party gets this coverage. ~AA

Amen

Should this be allowed?

Well done Judge Nichols! But can one brave judge prevail for long against a lawless despot, and an uncontrollable billionaire beyond the reach of reason or decency? He can only try. And for that, thank you Sir! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Judge slams Ofwat and govt for not attending Thames Water hearing. No one representing people/customers as lenders carve the company. Thames has £19bn debt, wants to borrow another £3bn, only £1bn will be useable, customer bills will rocket, won't resolve the crisis. Nationalise. archive.ph/NVzcP

🚨 END THE BADGER CULL! 🚨 Thousands of innocent badgers are being needlessly killed in a cruel, unscientific cull—ignoring both expert research and public opposition. We need 100k signatures to push for a debate in Parliament. Sign & share now! 🛑🐾 petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

A world with no billionaires. Is essential.

With reports that Britain is THREE TIMES more likely to arrest climate activists than other countries everyone should watch this film The court’s decision in @libertyhq.bsky.social’s case is due in the coming weeks youtu.be/qk5aiRXRuU0?...

After seeing off the fascists, & showing #RefugeesWelcome we matched to Altrincham centre taking #NoRacismNoFascism @AntiRacismDay message to the people

If those that make the rules don't follow the rules. They aren't really rules. They are orders. news.sky.com/story/starme...

Farage truly is Trump writ small. Like his master, he lies. Easily. Naturally. Automatically. To both of them, lying comes as easy as breathing. It's part of them. It's what they do... We must NEVER allow this to feel normal, or it will become normal. They should be called out, every time! 👍

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

Understand what's just happened here. Deregulation on steroids. The UK government has officially handed over its powers of governance to corporations. When will people truly understand what this means for their families, their communities and public services? www.opendemocracy.net/en/dark-mone...

UK govt targets old, sick, disabled. Long-term sick need to find jobs. Face benefit cuts of £5k a year. This after two child benefit cap, winter fuel payment cut. 6.3m await hospital appointment, 2.8m chronically ill Govt won't tax wealth; increase capital gains, corporate tax archive.ph/zDPGT

The Government met today with 700 "business lobbyists." Guess who was amongst them?

Freedom my arse. It was your fucking deal - you agreed it and boasted about - and it was shit, you shameless, lying, self-serving charlatan.

You want to talk about thought crime? I'll give you thought crime. The IEA are a charity-funded think tank founded in 1955 that has been incubating every possible far-right libertarian exit strategy from democracy under the sun. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qg9R...

Palestinians are the most beautiful people. ❤️ #FreePalestine🇵🇸

Something I wasn’t prepared for coming to live in the UK was how preoccupied politicians are with growth as a panacea for all problems and just how bad journalists and commentators are at explaining why that’s not true.

😂

Tell me again how it's the disabled and chronically ill and who is destroying the economy. 🤡 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

This is what British bombs have done. Thanks to the Tories and Labour shared policy of backing Israel. We have blood on our hands. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Resisting the Muskification of European Media: Four Suggestions from Sweden @chrchristensen.bsky.social offers advice on how Europe can maintain a vibrant news www.bylinesupplement.com/p/resisting-...

No. And anyone who says it can is lying to you. Climate Emergency. There's a clue in the last word. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Labour supporters on here are worse than the Tories used to be on twitter. Your government is pushing Thatcherism, and you defend it. I'm not a fan of Thatcherism, that's why I don't support them.

UK Health Secretary Wes Streeting says the NHS will remain 1. publicly funded. 2. free at the point of delivery. Silent on what is happening in-between. NHS becoming a shell, handing contacts to private sector. 30%-40% of money vanishes in profits. Money buys less. Say NO to NHS privatisation.

I tweeted this in 2023. Charter cities shall have EXCLUSIVE jurisdiction to regulate matters, including labor law, tax law, environmental law, business registration, land registration, and dispute resolution, and the administrative authority necessary to exercise those powers'.

it feels like the first days of Twitter here - i joined in 2010 with this first mix of Liar Liar as one of my first tweets. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQFw... - I put it up on youtube sent a few emails - and on day 4 it had 100,000 views. Strange and exhilarating days

#Bahrain #Bird Black-headed Wagtail is probably the most frequently seen wintering Yellow Wagtail. As spring approaches, they will be joined by as many as eight other sub-species composite pic 2

The idea of a Labour government was supposed to address the needs of the working class. Not the companies that exploit us. There is absolutely no point in a Labour government with conservative economic and social policies. Change, my arse.

As chilling a meme as I have seen. But I agree.

Morning all! ☕️ Have a look at that. Beautiful.
