The throwaway "that's the way it is" at the end of Trump's address to the US is beyond obscene. The only life he's concerned with is his.

Lib Dem Leader Ed Davey: "Tax exiles like Isabel Oakeshott and washed up old footballers who mock ordinary people who stay in the UK and pay our taxes... As we protect them, it's only right for tax exiles to start paying taxes to fund our armed forces, just like the rest of us".

That sound you hear is irony dying.

Frightening, and all too credible.

You'd think Reform would be delighted that a white, working class plumber got elected and they beat the metropolitan elite university lecturer.

Reform is refusing to suspend one of its councillors for calling for a Labour MP to be shot, saying it's a "mistake that we can all make from time to time.”

I felt very European before 2016 and I feel even more European now. Our future lies with our friends and neighbours in Europe. Anyone who believes otherwise is deluded.

"David Davis has called on the home secretary to urgently introduce a grace period to allow hundreds of Britons to continue to travel on their 2nd passport while their British passport is processed." That's David Davis core Brexiter. Who caused this catastrophe www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

No one can say they didn’t know.

We’ve had 3 PMs since Johnson. He has absolutely no relevance to this country. The only time he should be on TV is when he’s arrested for Misconduct in Public Office.

The final weekend of campaigning in Gorton and Denton by-election and Nigel Farage is floating about the Indian Ocean siding with a hostile foreign government.

Saturday, a sailor on a US submarine off the coast of #Greenland was medically evacuated by #Denmark to be treated in a Nuuk hospital. In case you're wondering why Trump is sending "a great hospital boat to Greenland to take care of the many people who are sick, & not being taken care of there."

Farage in the Maldives is further proof he's Trump's political rent boy. Love to discover how much constituency casework he does. My guess is the square root of sod all.

Just going to leave this here

Yes, we do need to see this but by God it stinks that the party that made Johnson (who partied with Russians with an envelope stuffed full of God knows what, then ennobled the son of a KGB spy, took backhanders & loans and gave govt. contracts to mates throughout his premiership) their leader.

Sure, Mandelson. Get him charged. But seriously, THIS! Why isn't this headline news everywhere???

I'm more uncomfortable that even though everyone knows Diapershitting Donald has been a vicious pedophile rapist scumswine for years that tens of millions of Americans admire him.and don't care that he and his pedo-buddies destroyed thousands of young girls' lives.

Design Firm That Donated £200,000 to Reform UK Owed £218,000 in Tax

Reminder that the administration now arresting journalists, and its sycophants, are also whining that the EU and the UK are enemies of free speech

Cogent article, and interesting comments.

The defection of Suella Braverman, who was sacked twice from Government in disgrace, spent £700m of taxpayers' money to send four volunteers to Rwanda on a deportation scheme that was then scrapped and has a public approval rating of minus 32 is currently being described as a "major coup" for Reform

What it's like living in the USA right now:

Yesterday we learned that a racist Trump supporter assaulted a nonwhite Democratic congressman. And it’s not even a big story. Meanwhile, Republicans drone on about ‘left-wing political violence’.

Trump won't read this, but every US citizen should. www.facebook.com/share/1BRWgc...

457 UK armed forces personnel died in Afghanistan during the 20-year deployment. This is a fucking hideous thing to say. Even by his non-existent standards.

Trump “NATO has treated the US very badly. We've never asked for anything. We've never got anything." 850 soldiers from 19 non US NATO countries who died fighting to defend the US in Afghanistan. You fucking orange ignoramus. #dementedtrump

'Fears' Bitter lol.

I thought the slogan for RFK Jr’s movement was Make America Healthy Again?

Their actions defy their statements.

Next time someone says they don’t have to apologize for being white anymore, ask them to tell about the most recent time they were forced to apologize for being white and who made them do it.

How shit at business do you have to be, to be personally worth 37,000 times the amount an average UK worker will earn in a LIFETIME, and still be incapable of withstanding a tiny tax increase?

The U.S. government just banned five people from entering the country because it doesn’t like their speech. This ban, according to the State Department, is necessary to protect free speech. If that sounds insane to you, congratulations on your reading comprehension.

The EU just officially removed Orban and Fico's ability to force €210B in Russia's frozen EU assets to be released by vetoing sanctions renewal. They will now stay frozen and under EU control until after Russia pays post-war reparations to Ukraine, with no further votes needed.

Councillors 'pelted with eggs', and intimidated by thugs in balaclavas who flooded their offices at refugee debate.. Far Right Champions of Free Speech as usual resorted to violence & intimidation instead of peaceful debate Let’s face it.. who doesn’t take a balaclava to a Council meeting 🤷🏼‍♂️

Trump wants to subjugate Europe and we need to stop being weak, band together, & take up our role as the bloc that is now the leader of the free world. www.lbc.co.uk/article/trum...
