I’ve found the answer! Big Sam dresses up at SKS and saves us from Deform.

4 x security guards on £50k pa, plus tax and exes. Let’s say £360k pa to run the team. That’s roughly 14 years of full time security detail. ~5% compound interest on £5m, you could pay your team forever and still make a small profit! Ergo: no one gives someone £5m cash for expenses. Ever.

Starmer appears to be doing exactly the same (false) equivalence between Reform and the Green Party that has previously utterly enraged people who have switched their vote from Labour to Green. Spectacularly counterproductive.

They scream about the Green Party's imaginary antisemitism for weeks before the election. But almost completely ignored this. Will there be outrage now? No they don't care about actual racism and antisemitism, it was just to smear the Left.

Labour voters cannot comprehend.

Labour voters cannot comprehend.

Reform are fascists. Fact.

Fuck Starmer and Fuck Farage.

This.

Centrism at its core is an acceptance of whatever currently is. It is not a political position, but an anti-political position. I will not take part I don't care what happens. It is poison and the worst political stance possible, because it isn't one. It is nothing.

I mainly post on Threads but think I need to leave. It’s become a Starmer cult where any criticism of their dear leader is met with such entitled bollocks it makes my skin crawl. I’ve realised, and I apologise, when people said “ red tories “ they were right. Fuck the Labour Party. Fuck Reform.

Okay, again... this is how TF you write a GD'ed headline!!!

This is appalling. How on earth can the trip planned by King Charles possibly go ahead after this?

HAPPY EASTER HE IS RISEN! CARROTLULIA! CARROTLULIA!

What’s one way we can rein in ICE? We can start by boycotting ICE’s corporate collaborators that are profiting from the agency’s cruelty. Watch.

I don’t think this can be shared enough.

Some friends are holding a joint party for Burns Night and the Chinese New Year. They want to call it “Chinese Burns Night”. I wasn't keen, but they twisted my arm.

Alternative headline: humiliating and abusing women on X by digitally undressing them is now a privilege reserved to paying users.

“They’re the wrong people in the wrong job. They’ve got the ear of the country but they’re mainly racist white men of a certain age...We’ll be in special measures in about six months." John Shuttleworth, independent councillor in Durham.

Patients are facing a truly terrible NHS winter crisis. The Government must declare a national emergency, offer flu jabs unconditionally and commit new funding to prevent our NHS being pushed to the point of collapse.

If handing someone their arse, was a video clip

People are choosing a politics of decency, courage and imagination. They’re choosing a politics that doesn’t scapegoat the vulnerable or remain quiet on injustice. People are choosing to make hope normal again. www.newstatesman.com/politics/uk-...

I'm really pleased that the accusations against Farage are quite rightly not going away. He appears very, very rattled and deservedly so. This is very long overdue.

2025: Keir Starmer, "The Brexit vote was a fair democratic expression" 2020: Stewart Hosie, "The UK gov actively avoided looking for evidence that Russia interfered in Brexit" - UK's Intelligence and Security Committee of Parliament Keir Starmer now telling lies like Boris Johnson, sad

This is what I called hegemonic defeatism, looking at the French case We're about to see a lot of people who pretended to be against the far right when it was easy give up before taking any real stand academic.oup.com/pa/article/7...

Pretend you are Les Dennis by putting your arm round someone at the train station and looking up at the departure board.

Best opening day of an Ashes series I can remember. Pity for those with day 3,4 or 5 tickets.

The "Dominic Cummings is a genius" types were worse than Dominic Cummings because they enabled Dominic Cummings. The "Boris Johnson is a genius" types were worse than Boris Johnson because they enabled Boris Johnson. Now go away and write that out a thousand times.

A very welcome ruling in Northern Ireland - supporting that basic right of freedom of/from religion. The state - and state schools - should not teach a religion as truth or push it on children. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c2...

Mark Epstein (Jeffrey’s brother): “The reason they’re gonna be releasing these things, the reason for the flip is that they’re sanitizing these files. There’s a facility in Winchester, Virginia where they’re scrubbing the files to take Republican names out”

Those Epstein files in full.

Labour: YOU MUST INTEGRATE Also Labour: we might kick you out in a couple years so don't get to comfy yeah

I will always believe the victims. If, with this evidence, you are still a supporter of trump, you are as bad as he is.

There is no reason why this should have made me laugh so hard a bit of gas escaped.

“As a disastrous U.K. PM I put thousands in debt and now as a Trump hand maiden I want the British public, who I hate, to cough up and pay Trump’s BBC ransom demand. If not the lamb gets it.”

This rancid trash understands the significance of Labour's anti-refugee policies.

“BUBBA!”

I just signed the petition to to demand the Government tax the super rich to rebuild our NHS, schools, and other public services. Will you sign too? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...

Proper journalism and facts (remember them?) about the far-right infiltration of the BBC. Byline Times is the only news source I "trust".

Is this real? He put kids in cages last time, so I suppose it’s probable. I can’t understand the mentality of the “marines and police” that turns them into such vile, inhumane pigs.

No Brexshit CAUSED the small boat problem to the delight of Farage in his ilk who were finally given an issue to rage about. The fact that they were instrumental in bringing it about is irrelevant to them it allows them to stoke up their racist base, which they do at every opportunity

Norman Tebbit created mass unemployment to keep workers wages down. Then gaslighted all of the unemployed people, telling them to “get on their bike” and find work. As if it was their fault not his.

Why so quiet, JD?

So I expect now the BBC & rest of MSM will give equal coverage to the @greenparty.org.uk as they do Reform Being as they both have 4 MPs & probs more to @libdems.org.uk with 72 MPs I also expect Santa to bring me a Unicorn this Xmas Oh well I better go now and get our pigs ready for take off 🙄😂🤣

Trump in April on trade deals: I'm telling you, these countries are calling us up kissing my ass. They are dying to make a deal. 'Please, please sir, make a deal. I'll do anything sir!' Trump Treasury Secretary Bessent today on why there are no deals: Many of these countries never even contacted us
