Surely this is a no brainer? No wonder people in full time in employment are still on benefits when you read this. This mother of three earns £45k, takes home £2800pcm but pays £2600pcm in nursery fees. Lift the two child benefit limit. apple.news/ADHTdUuFeSeq...

Meanwhile the LEFT-WING Spanish 🇪🇸 PM and the RIGHT-WING Italian 🇮🇹 have sent out their navies to escort the Flotilla whilst our Prime Minister and Cabinet count their pro-Isreali donations, waiting for their permission ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC PEOPLE RULE OVER US @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Excellent analysis. I’ve been trying to explain to various people for ages that government figures are incorrect and out of work benefit figures have not increased as they claim. This substack piece backs that up. Thank you @benbgeiger.bsky.social for your work.

The unfortunate fact is that as much as I adore time spent in nature and it improves my sense of wellbeing, it does not improve my severe arthritis or #EDS. There is no magic pill no matter how many cuts the govt makes either. If you’re #chronicallyill or #disabled this is a worthwhile read.

I’m all for animals playing a part in therapy for people. When they live in a loving home and it is part of what they do in their regular lives and they enjoy it. However, incarcerating a dog for life and calling it a support animal is nothing short of abuse. #dogs apple.news/AesjmV5HVSum...

Very odd watching BBC News talking about the Lib Dem conference and mentioning how the party has struggled to break through in the media like it's nothing to do with them.

The British invaded 171 out of the UN's 193 member states. That's forcibly (e)migrating to 90% of the world's countries (where we committed endless atrocities rather than assimilate). And now we have the temerity to begrudge the arrival of refugees...

Goodbye, Disney+!

Israel detains British MPs AGAIN. When will Britain detain Israeli war criminals? The two Labour MPs are doctors, and had planned to observe the healthcare situation in the occupied West Bank of Palestine. However, Israeli occupation forces stopped them. www.thecanary.co/trending/202...

Trump just designated “Antifa” as a terrorist organization, on par with ISIS and Al Qaeda. As a reminder, “antifa” is short for “antifascist”. They will use this lie to surveil, imprison, and kill Americans on the left. This may be our Reichstag Fire moment. Wake up. www.cnn.com/2025/09/17/p...

What the media is NOT covering about who Charlie Kirk was

Thanks. Such a powerful post. (I've added alt text for anyone who needs it)

Feel deeply unsettled after yesterday. As though Russia and the US have infiltrated the UK via Tufton Street, Robinson and Farage. Infinitely worse as Starmer appears to be a puppet PM. No time for prevarication.

Far right protest today: 29 - police officers injured 9 - protestors arrested Proscribed group protests: 0 - police officers injured 1,600 - protestors arrested We have Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper to thank for this absurd anomaly

This happened in full view of Sky News cameras and a bunch of police just standing there. Why is THIS not on the news all day? Why don't we show people what these thugs are turning the country into? I could only find it on the far right TikTok page that proudly boasted about the incident. SHARE!

this is all extremely sus www.councilestatemedia.uk/p/nothing-ab...

With it looking like 2 candidates through, l'd like to think Labour MP's would do the right thing and vote for @bellribeiroaddy.bsky.social so members have the chance for a broader political debate for Deputy Leader. Members should have the chance to vote for the left, not just the right.

If they can make it as difficult as possible for the vulnerable and marginalised; they will Just waiting for faux Labour lefties to post their outrage, or will they just pretend it didn’t happen?

Why are we still providing military support to a country that has bombed almost every neighbouring state over the past year?

Whilst Starmer, who said Israel has the right to withhold water from Palestinian civilians, hosts its President at Number 10. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

There are 20 restaurants & cafes & 9 bars in the House of Commons. These are heavily subsidised - a pint of beer costs £3.50. 9 bars in a place of work seems absurd. The subsidies shield MPs from the reality of the outside world & should be withdrawn immediately. Indeed the bars should be shut.

This.

"Zack Polanski and George Monbiot are both word perfect in assessing not only the danger posed by Nigel Farage and the failure of Keir Starmer to address Britain’s systemic problems, but in providing a vision that offers real change." www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I don’t think anyone in the Labour Party is prepared for Zack Polanski. Their tacky sound bites aren’t gonna stick this time

No other party says the basic truth: migration is good for Britain. The real problem? Inequality, soaring bills, underfunded public services. That’s driven by the greed of the super rich and the Labour government who serve them - not by migrants.

Welcome to the UK. Our PM is bought & paid for by Israel. Our laws are unjust. We accommodate those responsible for the worst crimes against humanity. We won't accommodate those who have experienced them. We criminalise those who try to stop them. We live in a "democracy". ... Oh wait.

Gary Lineker on winning the National TV Award, "It's not lost on me why I might have won this award" "Aside from presenting Match of the Day.." "Also, I think it demonstrates that perhaps it's ok sometimes to use our platform to speak up on behalf of those who have no voice"

All of our voting did it Gary Lineker wins the NTA award and breaks Ant and bloody Dec’s 23 year record! Go Gary that will teach the BBC for sacking him just for having a decent opinion. metro.co.uk/2025/09/10/g...

He massively admires Tommy Robinson... He was with Tommy Robinson the previous evening... Tommy Robinson gave him the flags... But this is a grassroots movement apparently

There’s only 20 something days left on this and it hasn’t had the traction it deserves! 🔽

This is another Starmer attack line that won't work because it rests on the assumption that 1) Polanski is insincere, 2) that Starmer isn't and 3) that Starmer himself is the real progressive. And that just doesn't land

Palantir is a CIA controlled spy agency, there to infilitrate and takeover foreign Governments. They need to be kicked out of the UK.

Johnson has always believed himself to be above the rules. In his government there was zero integrity and we’d never have seen one of his cabinet resign in the same situation as Rayner. He shouldn’t receive another penny of taxpayer’s money. apple.news/AE64yri-fQ-m...

If you want to keep #FarageOut you need to help build a strong opposition to defeat him. Pretending to be him isn't going to work.

#Starmer Oops...

Could we please stop pretending that the flags being hung from streetlamps or painted on roundabouts are innocent expressions of patriotic pride? This is the far right marking out its territory. It uses these flags to intimidate its traditional victims and opponents. 🧵1/3

If Farage wins the next election, it will be down to one person. His name is Keir Starmer. This thread explains why. 1. Destroying faith in democracy. The UK decisively voted out the Tories, only for Starmer to give us a Continuity Tory government, shamefully beholden to economic power. 🧵

This is the first time I’ve felt a glimmer of hope for Labour in quite some time. The question is, is it too late to turn it around? I’d like to think not. I don’t see anything working while Starmer is leading the party unless he does another one eighty. apple.news/ALC2cR2pMS3m...
