A Thailand-based crypto investor has handed a record-breaking £9 million to Reform UK, shortly before Nigel Farage used media interviews to plug his crypto firm and promise lower taxes and deregulation on the industry bylinetimes.com/2025/12/04/c...

Everyone in the UK check your credit scores. They have quietly changed the way they calculate it pushing most people down one or two grades, which can mean your lending costs go up, your overdraft can be removed etc. Its a cash grab because the banks know a crash is coming

The second people started worrying about making up enough jobs for people to have work, we should have implemented universal basic income.

NDP leadership candidate Tanille Johnston (@votetanille.bsky.social) just put basic income on the table in the debate.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social We should be talking about Universal Basic Income. This country is a wealthy nation. It can afford to do this. It also puts the power back into the hands of its citizens. There are very few downsides. Mostly the super wealthy whose control on resources will diminish.

Impossible to exaggerate what a brilliant writer Henry is. Pisses me right off tbh.

Great culture can save lives. Literally. Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

Oops, dunno how this link slipped in. Around the same time gill was stuffing his pockets with brown envelopes. How many times did Moscow Nige turn up and speak? www.theguardian.com/world/2019/o...

They know this is a good thing right?

This needs to happen now. End Farage’s (the Russian traitor) political immediately.

Nathan Gills crime is bigger than l think we realise. The traitors need to be found The Novichok attack at Salisbury, how thousands didn't die feck knows and the poisoning of Litvinenko in 2006 happened before December 2018. Gill took/accepted money after 2 chemical warfare attacks against us

Journalists and the media who do not consistently and directly challenge Farage on his and Reform’s links to Russia are colluding with him. Please do your job and do it until we get to the truth.

Nigel Farage must allow an independent investigation into Reform UK so the British public can be assured that all links to Putin's barbaric regime are rooted out.

Does it surprise anyone that a senior member of the Reform 'Party' has just been handed a 10 and a half year sentence for working for the Russians when he was a UKIP MEP? After all, Brexit was all about allowing Putin's plans.

Trump on his ‘obligation’ to sue the BBC: "They actually changed my January 6 speech, which was a beautiful speech, which was a very calming speech, and they made it sound radical. Whereas, many rulings in US have categorically said Trump incited an insurrection.

NEW via CNN: “The United Kingdom is no longer sharing intelligence with the US about suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean because it does not want to be complicit in US military strikes and believes the attacks are illegal”

Conservative Shadow Culture Secretary Nigel Huddleston tells GB News that the BBC should "grovel" to Trump. Amazing how many British 'patriots' are spending their time telling our national broadcaster to prostrate itself before a hostile foreign leader

Starmer does his work behind closed doors. youtu.be/Ha4zgCMkIQM?...

More than 140 arrests were made in the West End during a major Met Police operation tackling phone theft, violence against women and girls and anti-social behaviour. Record funding from City Hall is helping to drive down crime and make London safer for all.

Can broadcasters stop platforming Farage. Again, LBC’s Nick Ferrari interviews Farage so Farage can claim Trump is hurt by the small edit on Trump’s speech inciting the insurrection. Farage’s relationships with Trump and wealthy donors should be a concern for us all.

Would *really* recommend listening to New York Times' Jane Bradley talking about Farage and US, and Russian influence, on Democracy for Sale this week www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5p0...

tech billionaires ruining life for everyone pretending they can invent a wish-granting genie at only the cost of a habitable planet have been saying lately "if we invent god we can have UBI and public abundance for everybody" and, we could have that already if it wasn't for you you worthless fucks

I know statistics are poorly understood and are misused. But facts matter Between the 1991, 2001, 2011 and 2021 Census *every* ethnic group in the UK has become *less* geographically segregated and *all* groups, majority and minorities, are more likely to interact with people not like them

Companies House, as I am on the Housing Association as a director, means I use .gov log-in, I have to go through picture ID matching to the scan of my passport, use my phone to scan Passport chip to double-check my biometrics. If he is a director of a limited company, he would also have to do this.

@trientertainment.bsky.social Jonathan Ross dressing as different movie characters. Top Gun / flight suit Big Lebowski / cardigan #CelebrityTraitors

This is the result of Farage and Jenrick’s far-right, divisive rhetoric. Hard working, responsible people feeling afraid for their future. Disgraceful.

Racist Robert Jenrick and Uncle Trevor Phillips are blaming the Manchester Synagogue attack on a "failure of integration". Did they say that about the thousand of white terrorists who ran through the streets last summer, or in Ballymena this year?

It seems clear—I think to everyone, now—that a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

History has many painful lessons.

Watching Season 2 of Gen V on Amazon Prime. What a mirror it holds up to the current state of America. Waiting for Bezos to be cancelled by Trump sometime soon. #Genv

Kash Patel, head of FBI, looks like he wearing a Liverpool tie during a US congressional oversight hearing. Weird.

'Grassroots' flag movement is really Tommy Robinson stirring shit up x.com/i/status/196...

If Nigel Farage really loved Britain he wouldn't talk it down at every opportunity to a bunch of ill informed right wing American fuckwits who know sweet FA about the reality of this country.

It’s a farce most Conservatives are also ultra religious and talk about “family values” instead of actually helping families. UBI is not even a handout, it’s a dividend we should all be paid for contributing to the success of our society

Basic income 'critics' usually ignore the data Giving people income security actually boosts employment and education

Reeves has to stop tax cheats youtu.be/R-bb_sWI6a0?... People say Rachel Reeves faces a £40bn “black hole” in the UK budget. That gap could be filled, at least in part, by collecting corporation tax already owed. In this video, I explain how three simple legal changes could fix the system.

IMF upgrades UK growth forecast despite trade tariffs Britain will be the third-fastest growing economy in the G7 this year and next, says International Monetary Fund as it raises prospect of two interest rate cuts www.thetimes.com/business-mon...

With Neo-liberalism, many don't get healthcare, housing is unaffordable, debt ruins lives and Fascism emerges yet the media tells us those like Zohran Mamdani & Jeremy Corbyn who are not keen on Neo-Liberalism are the ones we should fear.

Funny how the patriarchy always erases women from history.

At the 7/7 Memorial in Hyde Park, I joined the Prime Minister and representatives of our emergency services to lay a wreath to honour the 52 people whose lives were cruelly stolen. Our thoughts and prayers remain with all of their loved ones and all those who were injured.

Today, we mark 20 years since the horrendous 7 July terror attacks shook our city.

Elon Musk casually, and illegally, dismantled USAID. According to a new study in the Lancet, that action will lead to *14 million* premature deaths between 2025 and 2030. Again: Elon Musk is directly responsible for 14 million coming deaths. 4.5 million will be children.

If you want to spend less on your healthcare system, try reducing both poverty and chronic mass insecurity with universal basic income instead of increasing poverty and insecurity with benefit cuts. Poverty and chronic stress are expensive. It's cheaper to prevent illness than it is to treat it.
