Whatever happens to the UK government in light of Mandelson scandal, at least we have some shreds of due process and challenge left. A Prince has gone and we may yet lose a PM but at least we’ll still have a scrap of dignity, unlike the USA.

exactly. this is not difficult. as.ft.com/r/58ed1b23-d...

I want to laugh at it but sadly it’s true.

None of this is “politics” if proven true:
-Illegal foreign funding
-Collusion with hostile states
-Bribes
-Unexplained property purchases
-Undeclared income
-Money laundering
-Misleading the public over Brexit
-Epstein-links These are criminal questions 
#JailForFarage

Apparently Epstein *isn’t* trending on Bluesky. I guess no-one cares that the US President is the kingpin of in international child sexual exploitation and sex-trafficking ring anymore. Must be old news. Or someone’s got to the algorithm….

This lays out the true terror of what’s coming. Politics being replaced by technology to drive through legal changes whereby the world is run for the rich, not the irrelevant voters. This is real. Do read and repost - @carolecadwalla.bsky.social truly understands the situation.

Billy Bragg put out one today as well. youtu.be/IKOW2ZikGW8?...

The Epstein files must be worse than we could even imagine.

Foul & abhorrent as Trump’s statements were, let’s not pretend that same callous, dismissive, ignorant views aren’t being echoed by the rest of his sycophantic, enabling, grovelling government. The US is not just no longer an ally, their alignment with Russian views is pushing them to enemy status.

"Trump says UK and other NATO troops stayed “mainly in the back” in Afghanistan. May I please introduce you you to Lance Corporal Joshua Leaky VC - who ran into enemy fire to rescue injured US marines."

The delayed release of the Epstein Files is a distraction all right. You’ve already got enough evidence to impeach yr President, remove SCOTUS and scrap Congress for doing condoning what’s happening. Epstein files are just an excuse for inaction.

WHY does Trump want Greenland? I’ve been thinking about this video all day. It’s entirely consistent with the real reasons Farage & the UK millionaires pushed for Brexit - to remove regulation to increase profits. This just takes it to its logical conclusion. www.facebook.com/share/v/17my...

how far is Davos from Dignitas

Why are the media ignoring the reality of what’s happening? For the unexpurgated truth, follow what remains of good investigative journalism in this country & read @carolecadwalla.bsky.social

@americanfric.bsky.social Question: if Trump meets his maker before 2028, who will win the inevitable power struggle between JD Vance & Steven Miller?

A real shame if this photo went viral again today.

Vote Reform, get Tories again.

If you wanted one line to sum up the mess the Tories are in, you could do worse than the one Ed Vaizey just uttered on Sky News: "big figures like Robert Jenrick".

Granted it’s the funniest news story this month (it’s been a thin year) but still our news is dominated by right-wing careerist egos. Can we have some focus on people trying to live, please?

The Tory/Reform drama manages to eclipse this. 🤦‍♀️

I don't know how anyone in the UK can see what's happening in the US and then still want to vote for Farage

There’s a lot to remember about Farage. His racism at school, appointing Russian assets into his Party, his house ‘ownership’ etc. but I think calling paedophilia free speech is the most important one to never forget.

A new poll from YouGov shows that between Zack Polanski and Nigel Farage, Brits think The Green Party leader would make a better Prime Minister - #politics #ukpolitics #leftist #british #news

Reform broadens its appeal… from white, filthy-rich, tax dodging bastards to slightly darker filthy-rich, tax-dodging bastards. I can totally see their appeal to your average truck driver.

NEW: The Palantirisation of the UK military is a national security disaster. Peter Thiel is now the third wheel in the US-UK ‘special relationship’. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Make it viral.

I'm afraid there *is* an obvious answer: it can't.

Seems like every new Epstein files event results in the US bombing or invading someone.

Trump has been sold the USSR model by Putin. Invade surrounding countries, install a puppet government, sell them arms, train their armed forces. Panama, Columbia, Cuba, Ecuador?

How long before Trump threatens to turn off GPS?

If Trump wants Greenland, exactly whose army is going to stop him? Not an underfunded NATO. We can bluster as much as we want but this is the new hard power era. Soft power & diplomacy ain’t worth a Ferrari Rocher.

And this is exactly what Sen Mark Kelly warned US service men & women about. #Venezuela

At the start of 2025, US citizens were very smug about their written constitution, and many looked down on the UK for our antiquated system. Now they are beginning to realise that it is not worth the paper it’s written on, and I take no delight in that. At least we got shot of Prince Sweaty Nonce.

Reminder that Henry Hoovers are made in Britain by a unionised workforce

I could watch this all day. In fact I might.

Hope is here. It's all of us. www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/hopeishere

Not to mention lying to the country and breaking manifesto promises. Those 40 new hospitals are coming online any day, right?

Agree or disagree?

And that's not even touching how Norway's oil fund is worth $2.76 trillion while Alberta's Heritage Savings Trust Fund has been "expertly" managed by consecutive right-wing governments to be worth $27 billion. Alberta and Norway have approximately the same populations.

Talking of broken manifesto promises (which she hasn’t), when are the first few of those 40 new hospitals opening, hmm?

From @13sarahmurphy.bsky.social As Trump and Putin work to crush Ukraine and destabilise Europe and Farage’s ally gets sentenced it’s a good time to revisit this excellent report on how the British rightwing has betrayed us all. Brexit was their weapon of choice bylinetimes.com/2022/03/08/p...

Is anyone really in doubt that Farage is a traitor in the pay of Putin?
