Reform and Tories have pledged to reverse ULEZ repeatedly.

😂Brilliant

Kemi Badenoch’s flagship party conference policy document overestimated the cost of net zero by nearly £500bn… …seemingly after someone accidentally double-counted figures on a spreadsheet. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Absofreakinlutely They Should......

Well said 👏♥️ "Without immigration, we would be much poorer, actually, as a country as a whole, not just as a city."

The UK Daily Mail obviously did not like the results of its own poll. Its own graphic portrays 75% as less than 50%. #UKPolitics #Brexit #EuropeanUnion

We need the EU, and they need us. We are stronger together. ♥️ https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/uk-rejoin-eu-germany-brexit-b3060288.html

Speechless

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Richest 1% of Britons owns more wealth than the bottom 70% of the population combined. 50 richest families hold more wealth than the poorest half of the population combined. The concentration of wealth in fewer hands has not provided the necessary economic stimulus. Need redistribution.

Kemi Badenoch condemned Reform's ban on critical journalists covering their conference as "authoritarian", saying her own party would never do the same as "we believe in free speech. We believe in a free press." Now the Conservatives have banned Byline Times from their conference

🚨 NEW BEST FOR BRITAIN RESEARCH 🚨 If Labour commit to rejoining the EU in the next manifesto they will be the party most likely to form a government. If Burnham wants to stop Farage, grow our economy and bring Britain to the top table, he must commit to EU membership.

Historians will look back and say America's downfall started with one simple mistake — not putting Trump in prison within 24 hours of January 6th… Merrick. Garland. Was. A. Disaster. 😎✨

Labour MP @rachelblakemp.bsky.social calls out the damage Brexit has done to our economy. Watch here ⬇️

The Guardian joins the campaign to abolish the state pension triple-lock. Portrays it as a old v young, social security v defence spending issue. Silence on corporate welfare, tax perks of the rich, maldistribution of wealth, low govt spend on state pension, how future retirees will survive.

The face of Trumpian authoritarianism, intimidation and violence.

Wages taxed at rates of 20%-45%. Earners also pay national insurance. Capital gains taxed at rates of 18% to 24%. By taxing capital gains at the same rates as wages £12bn to £14bn could be raised. More, if NI charged. Why are workers taxed at higher rates than return on wealth Will the govt act?

“Last week YouGov polling found nearly three quarters of voters (73%) believe Farage is at least fairly sleazy. And 71% believe Reform UK is similarly disreputable, up 20 points in two years” This is only going in one direction. £72Mill won’t make us like you. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Love it 👇😂

NEW POLLING Tom Brufatto: With a new Prime Minister, determined to prioritise redistributive growth and to restore a sense of hope to the country, this research sets out the roadmap to the party’s recovery, and provides the political piece to complete the economic jigsaw smashed to bits by Brexit.

Protester: “He’s just everything that is wrong in this kind of society, and he’s here. It’s just not right. I don’t know why we welcomed him here… We are a peaceful nation and he’s coming over here with blood on his hands from all the wars he’s doing.” 📍Ireland

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. Big Tech buys off Congress. No action on AI safety. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

A reminder that Delo previously pled guilty in the US to violating money laundering protections and agreed to pay a $10 million fine for "willfully” breaking the law with his BitMex platform, which was described as "in effect a money laundering platform.” This is who owns Farage now

Surprising this story isn't getting more coverage...

Surely he has to resign again to let the people of Clacton prejudge the resukt of the police investigation? It’s much more serious than the investigation he resigned over last time…

Pink has found out, support Israel, go broke.

Met Police to investigate #Reform over #Channel4 #donorsting I’ve lost count of the number of investigations into Reform/Farage/Tice. Meanwhile they just continue to go about their business 🙄 www.ft.com/content/73c6...

“Farage has insisted he and his aides “had done nothing illegal” and that no money changed hands” “Detectives have assessed the information provided and determined that there are potential offences requiring investigation” Hmm 🤔 who to believe? www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Pollution levels in London after 10 years of advancing sustainable transport.

Michael Crick is one of the journalists banned from attending Reform UK's conference. He writes, "One wonders if they’ve spent too much time in Washington and at Mar-a-Lago schmoozing with Donald Trump and his henchmen and admiring their bullying ways." 🎯

Look at these scumbags beating up a woman as Nigel Farage watches and then he praises them. Protect OUR women (So WE can abuse them). Is their slogan.

Again.... It's not a "donations row". A row suggests a conflict with two valid sides. Senior Reform staff were caught on camera boasting about law breaking. At least use the word "scandal", that's what it is.

Reform UK is taking place in Birmingham - the same place senior Reform UK politicians have bad-mouthed in recent months. Here's what this resident had to say in response.

Enjoying the weekend? Thank a union — and Frances Perkins.

Lorraine Kelly says it best: "Brexit has been a monumental disaster". https://inews.co.uk/opinion/disaster-britain-spent-decade-refusing-discuss-4743562

Who would ever have thought that the BBC’s political editor would put out a single source claim that was both false and also great propaganda for Reform…

Just Stop Oil planned to block a road, they got 21 years. Far Right masked thugs actually blocked roads. Not one arrest, nothing.

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

Spot on ⬇️ "There can be no doubt that 10 years down the line, we are weaker, less safe and more divided than ever before. Brexit has been a monumental disaster."

Just Nadine Dorries digging a hole so cavenous and wide as to be visible from Pluto. youtu.be/9Et3igGEKUs?...
