I suspect many new Reform UK Councillors saw it as a way to get rich quick - but baulk at the prospect of actually having to do some work to benefit not just themselves "Oldham's first Reform leader says he is leaving politics after shock resignation" www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater...

Doesn’t matter how you voted if you were front and centre in a Brexit government, actively overseeing the shrinking of our economy, our influence and our opportunities, while you rolled around in the trough. We’ll be disregarding everything you now say, thanks.

Raccoon dogs are not raccoons, and not related to raccoons. They are part of the canid family. Genetically they are more closely related to foxes than other canidae. IG: @keeleyrvn

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro. It's a loss for Trump. For Musk. For Milei. For Netanyahu. For Farage. For Meta and Zuckerberg. For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters. And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.

Farage, responsible for inflicting the Brexit disaster on the country, now campaigns with the slogan '100 days to save Britain' 🤦‍♂️ Farage, who insisted the only way to get migration under control was by leaving the EU now insists that leaving the ECHR is the only way to get migration under control 🤦‍♂️

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

Brexiters now scream that the return of free movement with the EU will flood the UK with migrants. But migration massively increased after their Brexit disaster came into effect. 🤔

Surveys and polling over the past 5 years consistently show that about two-thirds of UK voters support or accept reciprocal UK-EU Freedom of Movement. Freedom of Movement should not be a barrier to a stronger UK-EU relationship, and Andy Burnham is right to recognise that. ecfr.eu/publication/...

Prime Minister Andy Burnham says he wants a more 'honest conversation' about freedom of movement, suggesting it could work better than post-Brexit immigration has. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Writers Guild speaks out about tech platforms squashing the @alexgibneyfilm doc about Elon Musk: “A small handful of billionaires now own virtually every major media company, news outlet, social media platform and are demonstrating how this unchecked concentration threatens democratic discourse.”

My utilities come to about £3,000 a year. Cruella claims £45,000 from us to pay for hers. And she'll no doubt be cheering on 'Honest' Bob's plans to cut welfare from those most in need.

Refuk have lost nearly one third of their support over the last 12 months - and still falling. Seems like the more scrutiny they come under, the lower their support.
