This is a rare moment of bipartisanship. And a reliable indication that Darline Graham is a horrible, inexperienced nepo-candidate.

Two former Governors of South Carolina - one from each party - have endorsed Democrat Annie Andrews who is running against Sen. Darline Graham R-SC

Scrap VAT on fuel, get the energy price rises capped & scrap standing charges & unlink electricity from gas. Fucking do something to actually help people, oh and while you're at it TAX THE FUCKING RICH & THE BIG CORPS.

The UK Government must scrap VAT on petrol and diesel sales, the SNP have said, as new polling found voters want to see action on energy prices as the top priority from the upcoming Budget 👇

The BBC are now Reform's primary media platform. Noone else cares.

By all accounts this is what most of the recent Reform media events have looked like. Bubble well and truly burst

We need Scottish Independence. Surely even the most gullible and ancient, Unionist Scot realises this now? Was #brexit not enough?

This could get "interesting". UK reservoirs could run dry before Xmas, requiring water to be brought in from elsewhere. This is reported in the Daily Mail - I know - and so their map excludes Scotland (and NI) from the shortage graphic. Of course, Scotland has no such problem. I wonder why? 1/3

Why is YouTube pushing videos on me with Douglas Murray talking rot about civil ‘conflict’ in Britain? So bizarre for decades there was effectively a civil war in N Ireland that Britain never named as such Now there is no civil war, but endless mouthpieces talking it up evidence free

What an uplifting article.

Stop what you are doing and look at this lovely story. A photography student in the 80s took pictures of punks and mods on the street in Preston. He’s now tracked them down and photographed them again. The pictures and stories are really ❤️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Surely a democratic UK Westminster govt would ensure employers National Insurance is paid on shares to partners? If not then said Govt is only governing to benefit some on society.

CEO of scandal-ridden Deloitte gets 45% pay rise to £7.1m, 1,360 jobs cut. CEO pay = 93 times median employee pay. Firm doesn't pay employer NIC on profits shared by partners, worth £150,000 for £1m profit shared. £899m shared. 108 govt contracts in 2026, worth £650m. Friends in high places.

This morning on BBC Breakfast, Nigel Farage said he had received “zero help from the state” with his security. Yet reports say he had previously received publicly funded protection and was offered a taxpayer-funded package including a bodyguard, a secure car and a trained driver.

Why are the people who accuse those talking about reversing Brexit of "living in the past" never asked about their own plans to rip up an international agreement that was first signed by the UK some 75 years ago?

Off the charts Trump family corruption. Kushner got Billions of foreign funds, while spearheading foreign policy. And the Hunter Biden hunters are silent. @MarshaBlackburn
