Even as a Tory I must admit Reform MPs are devoted to serving their constituencies. For example Lee Anderson selling his ‘funny’ 30p football shirts in Ashdown & Nigel Farage’s outstanding work in Clacton. Oh & here is Richard Tice working hard in his constituency of Skegness. 📃

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10

Since the 1970s there has been a 71% decline in shark and ray species Shark finning is the cruel practice of removing any fins from a shark (including the tail) before discarding the remainder of the shark at-sea to die a cruel miserable death Photo Antony Dickson

But still the MSM scream about how good he is. How bad Labour are doing & Nigel will save the country. 24 hours a day. 7 days a week. It’s brainwashing. We all know how bad it will be if Farage comes to power. However, most of the electorate are brain dead anyway. As you said, they voted for Boris

Americans will no longer get free entry to federal parks on Martin Luther King Day. They will, however, on Trump’s June 14 birthday. Literally the sort of thing dictators do.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

All because selfish c***s can’t live without ‘real’ cheese 💔 This isn’t a one off, I’ve seen this long ago in horrific slaughterhouse footage. Eyes blinking, skin peeling. THIS is the price vulnerable animals are paying in a world where time =💰and sentient beings are diminished to mere commodities.

Oh look! ⬇️ But for some reason this isn't the top headline on the BBC after three days of them headlining the opposite. I guess the right wing press aren't running with this latest twist. That must be the reason why. 🤔

No. I am as disappointed with this Labour government as anyone, but absolutely nobody could claim that Starmer and his cabinet have been given equal treatment by the BBC. Think back to Emily Maitliss getting hooked for telling the truth as an example. The BBC is run by Tories. Fact.
