The story is if you try taxing them, they will just piss off and leech of some other country. Quel dommage as we like to say in Ormskirk.

"You can't tax rich people." Well then there's no harm in trying is there?

He didn't predict that communism would end up as capitalism, though.

No voting system is perfect – but Scotland’s elections continue to highlight the difference proportional representation makes. Seats are distributed more fairly, and fewer voters are left feeling ignored.

"unusual". How about corrupt,unreal, illegal? let's face it, if a Democratic President did this, you would say "A blatantly corrupt and illegal fund" and would be calling for that President to be impeached. If President Smith in 2029 creates a $1 billion fund for Climate Change, you'd be horrified.

If this had happened under Obama, the Wall Street Journal would have fomented riots around New York. Under Trump, it's "unusual"

Nigel Farage tells Reform supporters, ‘stopping the boats will fix all of your problems in precisely the same way Brexit did’ newsthump.com/2026/05/16/n...

Brexit isn’t killing Labour, media attacks and unrealistic expectations are.

I don't think it will kill off Farage, nothing will because his cult reads and listens to nothing unless he is slagging immigrants. As for Labour, it is not killing Labour off but the far right wing UK media is with a little help from others. Hope not Hate.

Few - barely anyone - in the media has held Farage to account for Brexit in 10 years Why would they start now?

Multi-millionaire Farage might bang on about sovereignty, but that means nothing if you have to choose between eating or heating. It'll be very disappointing if Burnham doesn't go hard against Brexit for fear of alienating Reform voters.

Brexit, It’s like advocating mass suicide. the Project is psychotic, delusional and like all acts of self harm is not conducive to effective the functioning of society and its politics.

True But sadly the other victim in all this is the UK Brexit is the shit that keeps on shitting

The Epstein files should make us all realize, in real time, that we are not ruled by laws equally applied. We are ruled by wealth, access, and protection networks. America is a criminal syndicate. I’ll never get over it, so don’t ask me to.

"Under FPTP, parties can win huge majorities on a minority of the vote. Entire regions can be politically written off. Voters are told to vote tactically rather than honestly. Then Westminster acts surprised when people become frustrated with politics." ✍️ New blog by our CEO Emma Harrison:

Am I the only one who finds it absurd that the US government seeks to punish a comedian for a joke, yet ignores a presidential threat to demolish an entire civilisation?

Yesterday, a new generation of civil rights activists marched from Selma to Montgomery to fight for voting rights. As states across the country try to make it harder for citizens to be heard, we need to learn the lessons of those who came before us and refuse to take our democracy for granted.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. No matter what.

Ultimately, They want to Deport Americans who Can Legally Vote Against Them….

They've reversed almost 80 years of civil rights advancement in a matter of months. It's time to stop the GOP. This is the fascism we warned you about.

People are being warned not to swim at most of England’s designated river bathing sites as many of our rivers are contaminated with bacteria linked to human and animal faeces. Clean water shouldn’t be a luxury. 🧵👇 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It would be wise for the population of the US to remove their current administration before this shit hits the fan. Trump is entering the 'find out' stage of his war against the world, and he will take the entire country down with him. Communists don't play silly games.

I think I know of one item on their agenda.

We don't "tweet" on here. We post. And how is posting on here conditional on changing your sexual orientation. No one on here cares if you have a preference for same sex partners.

In a sane world, we'd be discussing giving a million dollars to Jeffrey Epstein's victims and not to the traitors on January 6.

ART2Section4“The President,Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States,shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for,and Conviction of,Treason,Bribery,or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”Get the whole gang! If not us,WHO?If not NOW, WHEN? if we do not TRY,then WHY R Dems there?

Sen. Jon Ossoff: “Did anyone really think the sexual predator president, who used to party with Jeffrey Epstein, was really going to release the Epstein files?” #EpsteinFiles #TrumpIsOnTheEpsteinList #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

Problem is the people that need to see these facts will say the stats have been manipulated and continue in ignorance.

#BBCRadio4 #Currently But there is an organisation called #TheMuslimVote. I doubt if it includes all Muslim voters, but why talk as if it doesn’t exist?

The Epstein files changed me forever. I read them in painstaking detail over months, realizing in real time that we are not ruled by laws equally applied. We are ruled by wealth, access, and protection networks. America is a syndicate. I’ll never get over it, so don’t ask me to.

Precautionary principle! It is so disheartening that people in positions of power learned nothing from SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2. Their arrogance is a danger to us all.

We should be investing in clean energy, not fossil fuels, and all these data centers should be equipped with solar.

People should be required to experience ICE's illegal brutalities before being able to claim that they support #ICE and their methods.

Religious language is regularly being used in politics to justify corruption, inequality, or harm. Are most believers aware of their Faith, and by extension they themselves, are thus being exploited? Christianity is the politicians'power tool of choice, especially in the U.S.

Any President that sues his own government, while in office, should immediately be impeached.

Farage blamed the EU, leading to Brexit. Brexit was promised to stop illegal migration. Now Farage blames illegal migration. Anyone not seeing a pattern is not looking.

The crucial point here about the lack of progressivism is that these interviewees have not a single word of empathy for anyone else

Voting for people like this doesn't feel particularly progressive either:

That many people in UK feel disillusioned comes as no surprise. That's when they'll try to find someone to blame. If they're concerned about MP's pay, they shld look at what Farage rakes in ! We've had economic shocks from COVID, pandemic, war in 🇺🇦, war in Middle East. Price controls won't work.

They know in their hearts that Reform & Farage are no different from other politicians (half are moneyed ex-Cons after all) but they don't look askance when they punch down on the young or minorities, and that's what really matters.

Executions in 2025 soared to the highest figure recorded by Amnesty International since 1981 – and a small, isolated group of states were responsible. A world without the death penalty is possible. And we won't stop fighting until we abolish it. Read on: amn.st/63321BBNjkF
