I mean… How long do we have to put up with this shit? We really do get it. Farage’s greed makes him an insane security threat. And there’s absolutely nothing altruistic or democratic or good for the country that will come from his frenzied corruption. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Oh wow, the Brexit loons are foaming at the mouth in response to Burnhams speech. Listening to Tom Swarbrick show on LBC. They’re mad, truly mad 😀🙄

The Tories folllowing the Trump doctrine. Who’d have thought?

9/11, a terrible and barbaric event. However, the sheer hypocrisy and lack of self awareness of the USA, revelling in self pity and faux patriotic fervour makes my gorge rise.

Hard to understand why these representatives of the people turn away from this opportunity to limit human suffering. I doubt it’s religion, and I don’t swallow the ‘potential for abuse’ excuse either. Suspect it’s more to do with maintaining big pharma profits. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Any politician calling to leave the ECHR is lying about what that will achieve. It won’t solve any problem or improve our lives It will make us worse off and remove our rights. Just like Brexit. The ECHR belongs to us all. It’s not theirs to take. Please sign www.europeanmovement.co.uk/echr-petition

europeanmovement.co.ukAct now to protect the UK's place in the ECHRSign the European Movement UK's petition now if you agree: Britain must remain in the ECHR

Tice has just said on R4, that if the judiciary or any other check and balance gets in the way of Reforms ridiculous policies, they will destroy them. Pretty clear who Reform are. Britain isn’t broken, they are.

If you haven’t watched the latest take on the Nuremberg Trials (Nuremberg Movie), please do. Not only is it a very good film, but it has a very clear message. Dr Kelly, Goering’s psychiatrist, wrote and published his findings. A warning, and very relevant today.

Farage is a complete and unashamed liar, à la Trump. He didn’t attend the election result announcement bcs he said the police told him not to. They’ve now said that’s incorrect. He’s an abject liar of the very worst kind. Thanks Clacton, may you descend into the shit hole you deserve to be.

And still, even with a new PM, no one is talking about addressing the biggest con ever perpetrated on the British electorate…. Brexit. Until someone grows a set and deals with it, nothing will change and the no.10 merry go round will spin ever onward.

RIP Kevin Keegan. Epic figure and footballer for Liverpool and England (amongst others) to anyone who grew up on the 70’s. Cultural icon of his time and came over a a genuinely good person. Very sad indeed.

The scientists are careful to say 'a female' not 'a woman', and the headlines should reflect that. If I remember my funeral archarology and my pre-historic archaeology courses correctly, shaman were often what can be described as two-spirit or 3rd gender people. Genetic sex is not gender.

Jeezus… they haven’t got the wit to realise that they’re the clowns. Why TF should we take them seriously? They lie. They cheat. They dodge the rules. They preen and they lecture us. But everything they do stinks of privilege, hypocrisy and personal inadequacy. I’ll keep laughing at them thanks.
