RT if the USA should take Tommy Robinson. He is a violent criminal scumbag we don't want him and the USA seems to be collecting people like that.

If someone wants to kill you, you don’t invite them into your house, give them a gun and then take a nap on the sofa.

Ok, only 2 topics ever allowed on the news now. Which will it be today? 🤔 1) Epstein files 2) Small boats (*But never ever mention everyone is skint or that kids teeth are all rotten because there are no NHS dentists). #gmb #bbcbreakfast #BBCNews #itvnews

Sentenced to death and executed in the street for peacefully protesting, by the evil US regime.

Former Conservative chancellor Nadhim Zahawi has defected to Reform UK. (He was sacked by Rishi Sunak in 2023 after the PM’s independent ethics adviser found he’d broken ministerial rules by failing to disclose that while he was chancellor, his tax affairs were under investigation by HMRC)

@andalucia-bound.bsky.social Thanks for the link. After visiting Acinipo, we travelled the short journey to the village of Sentinal de las Bodegas. Interesting place, but avoid the weekends.

It’s a good, long article, by the way, which focuses on the situation in the US, but is relevant to many other countries.

If you can see what's happening in the US and still thing think that Reform is a good idea then I'm not sure we have a lot to talk about

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

“We asked a hundred people to name a government economic priority. You said: cutting spending on disabled kids travelling to school.”

They really should. If they had to wear them people would be more informed about what they were voting for. And they might be more careful about who they take money from.

If I'm going to take health advice from a heroin addict, I choose Keith Richards.

As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about “two-tier sentencing”, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of “two-tier Keir”. The man is a fraud.

There was only one alpha-male in that Oval Office… And he wasn’t wearing a suit. …nor was he wearing eyeliner or fake tan.

Macron corrects Trump after he claims "Europe is loaning the money to Ukraine. They get their money back."

I don't think people here have forgotten the murder of Andrei Litvinenko nor the chemical weapons attack in Salisbury that killed one British citizen, left others gravely ill & recklessly risked the lives & health of hundreds.

More sex offenders sent to jail today. But the Far Right will ignore them because they aren't muslim.

Spain’s economy is booming bc there was a Keynesian splurge to protect people from the rise in cost of living. Sanchez speaks good English, maybe he could explain his success to Starmer.

Elon Musk can't design Spaceships, he can't make cars, he can't program AI, he can't mine blood emeralds, he can't even play Video Games. All he can do is exploit people that can.

A quick look on the racism site shows that Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick is apparently outraged at the delays in the criminal justice system. Y’know, the ones caused by the policies that he consistently supported. The ones that he was absolutely fine with when he was in government.

Lawyers for Liz Truss have asked me to stop saying Liz Truss crashed the economy. I only said Liz Truss crashed the economy because Liz Truss did crash the economy. If she wanted me to not say Liz Truss crashed the economy, she shouldn’t have crashed the economy. Please don’t share.

This gang of sex abusers preyed on young children in Walsall, and got away with it for years. What could possibly explain the failure by Nigel Farage, Elon Musk and the Tories to call for a public inquiry about it?

Once again, when the Tories are given an opportunity to show some principled backbone, they refuse to take it. Their craven, Musk-appeasing racism, Tommy-Robinson-themed opportunism and failure to support Jess Phillips are all you need to know about the rancid mess that is Badenoch’s nasty party.

An alternative Christmas message 😉

Should billionaires and corporations be banned from buying political parties in the UK? Like if yes. RP if it's HELL YES.

It looks as if we are finally going to find out why Charlotte's Owen and Ross Kempsell were given peerages. rosenbaum.org.uk/foi-tribunal...

“We’re making life more difficult for those who dedicate themselves to lies and spreading fake news every day, and, therefore, it is good news for democracy,” Novel approach to protecting Democracy. Where would Brexit or Farage be without the for lies? Nowhere www.theguardian.com/world/2024/d...

The Gvt needs to introduce legislation urgently to prevent foreign nationals donating to UK political parties.

So it continues:

The government has helped to secure a £500m deal for Hitachi to build trains in the North East of England and protect 100snof jobs. The deal supports the government's Plan for Change, specifically the mission to kickstart economic growth the milestone to boost living standards in every region.

Since Brexit, we are recruiting many health and care workers from countries like Nigeria and Pakistan, which have serious shortages in those occupations.

So much strike coverage today & no time to read it but thank you to @davidfolkenflik.bsky.social for this excellent piece for @npr.org. This isn't just a threat to UK journalism. It diminishes the Guardian globally at a time when journalism couldn't matter more www.npr.org/2024/12/04/n...

"Brexit has ruined this country, and now the majority of Britons thinks so too." RP if you are that majority.

Watch your email etc, folks. just had a message flash on my screen to confirm my email address for the petition for general election. I have never accessed the gov site. bots maybe.

Tories are accused of making unfunded pledges worth £12million for every HOUR since Kemi Badenoch became leader. This will probably come as no surprise to anyone www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

When I was a child, I learned that the Constitution didn’t apply to people like us. I said the Pledge of Allegiance from inside a barbed wire camp, the words “with liberty and justice for all” wholly meaningless. But I did not give up on America. I’ve spent my life fighting for its ideals.

Spain today fined low-cost airlines Ryanair, Vueling, easyJet, Norwegian and Volotea €179 million for abusive practices, the ministry of consumer affairs announced.

Support for Guardian and Observer journalists as they vote to strike against GNM sale of the Sunday paper

These are the biggest landowners in Dorset. After the National Trust ex Tory MP Richard Drax is the biggest. Personally I couldn’t care less if this lot paid Inheritance Tax.

"You boy..! Has Clarkson moved his Range Rover out of that disabled bay and pissed off back to The Cotswolds yet?!"

Man who told The Times in 2021 that he’d only bought his £4.25m farm to avoid paying inheritance tax to lead protest against inheritance tax 😂🤣😂 www.thesun.co.uk/news/3179317...

It's my opinion that Victoria Derbyshire should replace Laura Kuenssberg on every single BBC show she is on, and she should do it right now. I'm sure you agree.

In terms of the #FarmerProtests today, can I make a small suggestion? What if, instead of scrapping the IHT, which will largely affect much larger farms, we focused on making farming profitable again? 🧵

Clarkson: Your claim that I bought a farm to avoid taxes is false and irresponsible. BBC: It’s your own claim. Clarkson: What’s that got to do with anything?

Nigel Farage out and about in Whitehall dressed as someone who isn't a farmer thinks a farmer dresses

Your regular reminder that you can look up how much public subsidy each farmer gets annually here. cap-payments.defra.gov.uk/SearchResult... For example in 2023 Jeremy Clarkson got £83,000 and in 2022 he got £133,000. Nice work if you can get it. @guyshrubsole.bsky.social @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

Just walked out of Mass bloody fuming ... our priest used the homily to read a letter from all the Catholic bishops telling people to oppose the Assisted Dying Bill then handed out cards with our local MP's details on to lobby them. Religion has no place in politics or women's rights.
