It’s fairly ironic the massive outrage from Reform when Starmer received a few declared freebies BUT Fartages £5mill bung is a “ nothing to see here” moment Deformists are the UK version of MAGA and probably as dumb

It’s clear to see that if you ever were thinking about planning a hostile take over of any country including you’re own - you’d want the Dem’s ( or similar ) as your opposition “strong worded” letters or being appalled doesn’t really catch the urgency of the moment guys 🤨🙈

Reform UK's Tom Pickup, has been suspended by the party after posting in a far-right Whatsapp group where other members posted calls for Keir Starmer to be shot. Don't just like it, share it. national.thelead.uk/p/reform-wat...

Shchedryk," the ancient Ukrainian folk chant known globally as "Carol of the Bells," was born from a prayer for a prosperous spring, yet for over a century, it has echoed as a defiant anthem of survival.

This city shaped a classic Christmas carol. Now Russia has destroyed it. Meet the history and politics of a world-famous Christmas song that started as Kyiv’s political message to the world a century ago. It sends the same message today.

Today, as the bells chime over the golden domes of Kyiv, they no longer just herald a season; they carry the resilient pulse of a nation that refuses to be silenced, transforming a simple winter melody into a haunting, beautiful roar for peace and enduring light.

The Frieze A processional freeze against a rippled backdrop shows 155 figures from Scottish history. They march round the hall in reverse chronological order, from the nineteenth century through to Stone Age man. The Great Hall in the Scottish National Portrait Gallery. Edinburgh

Have we all noticed how UK media is a lot less obsessed with Farage’s alleged antisemitism than Corbyn’s alleged antisemitism? Not that odd really?

Farage is a plague on all of our houses

Robert Saunders@robertsaunders.bsky.social

The radical right in Britain increasingly claims to represent "Christian values" & "Christian civilisation" - though its leaders rarely go to church or pretend to believe anything. It's especially important that Christian leaders speak out against this, as it's their tradition that's being claimed.

Farage a charlatan

Harry Eccles@harryeccles.bsky.social

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear. This man sows hate, lies and division. He is a grifter and a conman. He does not represent the vast majority of Britons. Repost if you agree P.s. multiculturalism is great.
