Rejoin the EU First #Farage and #Brexit now #Trump and his war. Populists are bad news

Who pays the tax in the UK. 'Us' not 'Them'

Traders bet half a billion dollars ​on the price of crude only 15 minutes before U.S. President Donald Trump announced a five-day delay to attacks ‌on Iran's energy infrastructure that sent the market plunging, according to Reuters. youtu.be/7KhWLamaSRc?...

#PMQs Badenoch compares North Sea oil to Norway oil. Norway oil belongs to Norway the proceeds being used for the people of Norway, UK sold its oil to private fossil fuel companies for private profit.

Bernie Sanders: “I think all over the country, people are saying, ‘Wait a minute, we can’t afford housing. We can’t afford health care. We can’t afford childcare. We can’t afford food at the grocery store.’ & this war now, which will cost hundreds & hundreds of billions of dollars — why?”

This is an astonishing read. The US-Israel coalition is burning through munitions at a financially and industrially unsustainable rate. The real danger is not just how much has been spent, but how hard it will be to replace. $26B spent, $50B to replenish.

Pro-war, pro-privatisation. Don't trust these people.. www.ft.com/content/be4b...

Every single word out of their mouths is either a lie, a gaslight, or a projection. They never tell the truth unless they are admitting that they either lied, gaslight or projected.

Of course

AP follows the @notus.com report on how the Trump administration had already gutted the State Dept’s staff of Middle East policy experts — and “eliminated the dedicated Iran office ..” @apnews.com apnews.com/article/iran...

Trump can't understand why our NATO allies, who he has made a habit of bullying and trashing over the years, aren't eager to help him in his unprovoked war with Iran. #IranWar #Iran #Trump #StraitOfHormuz #oil #GasPrices #NATO #war #Russia

I see that James Orr, Head of Policy for Reform UK, was on #bbcqt last night pushing the “drill baby drill” approach. Fair play to Caroline Lucas for explaining the futility of that approach. Surprised #r4today haven’t had him, or Nick butler on again to push this nonsense. Meanwhile in Spain…

Reform UK REFUSES to deny that Nigel Farage wants a "Survival of the Richest" healthcare system. The Question time audience was laughing at James Orr.🤣 Fiona Bruce actually called him out.😲 And Caroline Lucas demolished him! 😍 #BBCqt

The ex-press criticising the royals! What happened to this:- www.express.co.uk/news/royal/2...

No need for 'experts'? People who know what they are talking about? Where have I heard this before? Fragile Garage #Brexit

"A vote for Brexit guarantees the UK's independence and means will never have a European Army." www.gov.uk/government/n...

Nigel Farage cheered on Trump’s illegal war on Iran that is sending petrol prices and energy bills through the roof. Now he says he wants to cut your energy bills. This is just Farage’s latest con. Just like Brexit, he peddles his lies then leaves the British people to pick up the tab.

America first is letting foreign companies come into the US to mine copper?

If Britain and our allies help Trump get out of the mess he's in now, then he'll move on to Cuba... and Greenland, and God knows what else... and will demand we go along on that ride too.

And their supporters don’t care - that’s what’s so frustrating.

- Republicans openly hate GIs (aka American military Service members) killed-in-action "KIA" while Serving in US Armed Forces during Republicans' illegal invasion of Iran. Gop openly hates GIs #RepublicansHateGIs 😳 #GopHatesGIs 😳 -

I used to think a rapist, a felon or a bigot can’t be president. Clearly I was wrong.

Similarly in the UK, where the large fall in immigration currently underway will *increase* the deficit, in both the short and long term.

Wow

What have we become as a country?

The special relationship doesn't exist. Our fantasy about it deprives us of our dignity. But we can once reacquire our national pride if we make hard decisions about our future. inews.co.uk/opinion/brit...

…and they’re going to lose their minds when they visit their gas stations this week. Trump is as economically illiterate as he is physically incontinent.

If we have to have a second house in parliament we need better people to fill it.

This is appalling. The Home Office rejected an appeal from the foreign secretary, Yvette Cooper, that would have protected outstanding students in some of the world’s most dangerous countries from changes to the UK’s immigration system www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

America killed those schoolgirls. And Trump lied about it. This proves it. Hegseth should go to jail or, at the very least, resign. #USWarCrimes

Nigel Farage spent the weekend having dinner with a suspected paedophile, a sex offender, criminal and an adjudicated rapist.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion. That's $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. Thousands of lives lost. People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

At Donald's behest, the United States of America is committing crimes against humanity. And the Republican Party is doing nothing to stop him.

A couple of days ago, the Reformorons were bigging up Farage, telling us he was going to meet Trump. Trump snubbed him (again) 😂 lol

Frankly, if this comes as any surprise then you really need to start paying attention.

Are we allowed to get the rest of the Epstein files now?

#RELEASE #THE #EPSTEIN #FILES

They are CHILDREN.. #Iran #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

Markwayne Mullin’s views on the value of life stop at the birth canal. “In Oklahoma, we’re not going to be killing babies.” Oklahoma ranks near the bottom in maternal care, infant mortality, healthcare, and education. For Markwayne, once the baby is born, they’re on their own.

My conversation this week with the brilliant @feargalsharkey.bsky.social: youtu.be/MPo3_0DjgyU?...

Well done to #LizWebster's take on Telegraph sale, with comments. bsky.app/profile/lizw...

Happy International Women's Day.

Release the files... #Iran #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

So agree with her
