Maybe, just maybe, the success of the greens is showing, contrary to the dominant pro-reform, anti immigrant, anti-tax narrative we get from the mainstream media, that there is a silent majority in the UK who are decent people? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Trump talks about bombing bringing regime change in Iran but has bombing ever achieved regime change? The UK was heavily bombed for years in WW2 but held out. Is this just theatre to make trump and netenyahu look strong at home? thehill-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/thehill....

Great response from Polanski, particularly scolding the Media for simply repeating statements without proper journalism. More politicians should call out media for shoddy journalism.

Maybe he needs to change his name from Good-win to Bad Loser

Time to hope that populism may have peaked and that a progressive majority is re-emerging in the UK. A majority who know how to use tactical voting to keep the Nazis out. www.bbc.com/news/article...

It sure is!

I guess that all the shocking stories of sexual perversion involving Boris and our Nige are in the Epstein files that haven't been released yet.....?

The life's work of anyone who gives a damn about humanity is to resist the economic elite, demand the taxes that reduce their power and defend the space in which the rest of us can thrive. If your "elected representatives" aren't helping with that, they are not your representatives, but theirs.

🔺 NEW: The world is sleepwalking into disaster with artificial intelligence that will create an elite class living in luxury while the majority languish, a former Google executive has warned ⬇️

Another article that seems to ignore the real threat of the Paramount bid for Warner Bros, namely that the Paramount bid includes CNN and if successful Ellison will almost certainly turn CNN into a Fox news clone to keep his buddy Trumplstiltskin happy. www.theguardian.com/film/2026/fe...

Stop Reform #GortonAndDenton

We used to cringe at the Tories’ crass, hubristic tone towards the EU but now Labour, upholder of hard Brexit, is dispensing lectures on the need to avoid erecting trade barriers and we’re reminded that British exceptionalism and lack of self-awareness cut across party lines.

Bit fuss rightly about why the BBC edit the racist language at the Baftas but no explanation from the BBC about why they did edit the “free Palestine” comment. Channel 4 news had no problem broadcasting it yesterday evening so why did the BBC refuse to air it? www.theguardian.com/film/2026/fe...

Some of this stuff you couldn’t even make up: “ He ended with a call for the return of Judaeo-Christian values. An odd shout for a Muslim man”. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Imagine if Hitler had said he would stop bombing England if the UK gave him Wales and Scotland, and the US had said this was reasonable if the UK wanted peace. This is the deal being offered today to Ukraine. Like Hitler, the evil of Putin must be defeated. Ukraine must be free. Slava Ukraini!

The reality of the Ukraine war, and the regime run by the man both Farage and Trump admire. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Four years ago today, we woke to find Russia had brought full-scale war back to Europe. For four years the people of Ukraine have endured and resisted invasion and occupation, and held the line for freedom and democracy. We must #StandWithUkraine until there is peace with justice. (1/2)

People think evil looks like Sauron or Adolf Hitler But actually it's just people who only care about money, don't care how they get it, never want to pay any tax and don't want anyone else to have anything 'for free' because they can afford whatever they want That's real evil

Actually I did and still do say much the same about Thickiteers. Especially those that still think Brexit was a good idea should be excluded from voting every again. I argued at the time that the EU referendum was like a single question multiple choice test: 1. Are you fucking thick? 2. Or what?

Tonight, we adorn our European institutions with the colours of Ukraine. Two colours, carrying the spirit of courage. 
Two colours, burning with resistance. Four years into Russia’s full-scale war, these colours are shining brighter than ever Slava Ukraini.

France got rid of this in 1792 and Russia in 1917. But we kept it. Why?

Amongst all the righteous anger directed at Mandelson and Windsor, it has been easy to forget that the UK government have stepped up and arrested these villains. In the US, by comparison, I understand no-one has yet been arrested. www-cnbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.cnbc...

Iceland is speeding up plans to join the EU, seen as a safe haven of civilization by so many countries. They’ll be joining a long queue so it’s an odd idea that once upon a time a country was stupid enough to voluntarily leave such a powerful club. Doh! www.politico.eu/article/icel...

Much negativity is coming from individuals associated with specialist schools where over 30% of these schools are backed by private equity firms, with public money intended for children with SEND requirements instead flowing into private profit. Its causing an enormous drain on educational funding.

Good decision. Can we follow?

Still no explanation as to why so many UK RW politicians are queuing up to argue the Chagos Islands should not be given to Mauritius. It’s clearly not security related as the deal involves a 99 year lease for the military base there. Something dodgy’s going on IMHO www.politico.eu/article/bori...

This tweet has resurfaced from 2016 - the world was a different place back then.

"The age group who were unable to vote in the Brexit referendum overwhelmingly want to rejoin the EU. A whopping 83% of them said they would vote to rejoin. There is likely a pro-EU majority now of around 8 million. The pro-Brexit majority of 2016 has gone. It has literally died out." #RejoinEU🇬🇧🇪🇺

Interesting to know who is paying these characters to lobby so strenuously over an issue of no interest to the vast majority of uk citizens. www.politico.eu/article/bori...

Two months ago the UK agreed to a deal in which the NHS has to pay £3bn a year more for US drugs. The only thing we got was an agreement the UK would face no tariffs. Now we are getting 15% tariffs on everything. The deal must be torn up and no money stolen from the NHS.

Imagine. One day you’re working in a coffee shop then everything changes … Civilians to soldiers: how four years of war has changed ordinary Ukrainians Many who had never held a weapon before rushed to take up arms. Now, these brave Ukrainians fight for all of us.

Incredible news about the Reform UK Chair for Bath, Tim Nott. He likes to dress as a Nazi, and has an interesting chest tattoo… There’s reenactment, and there’s dressing as Himmler’s SS.

Reform’s Matt Goodwin’s having an absolute mare this week: 😬Accused of sexual harassment 🤑Apparently receiving a dodgy £10k/month salary from Russia 🫤Now it emerges his numbers just didn’t add up in his academic position at a right wing think tank… t.co/cwK8ym4UB4

What has been done has been done.

Im guessing that Trump will decide next to put tariffs on any alien importing flying saucers news.sky.com/story/trump-...

😕

Peter’s friends still run Labour.

So, when Donald said Europeans needed to depend less on the US and do more for their own defense, what he actually meant is that he wanted them to buy more US equipment. Seems that making their own was not supposed to be an option. www.politico.eu/article/wash...

UK media in overdrive this morning to explain how wonderful Charles is to have offered up his brother’s head. Lots of pompous royal experts sounding very earnest. No-one wants to consider that Charles maybe knows much worse stuff is to come or has perhaps been reassured that Andy will not face jail.

Glad I didn't watch any of the Olympics now. And the reason was because of this lingering dirty feeling around IOC. Fully validated. As if you can't have a memorial on your helmet? It wasn't even political. IPC actions unforgivable. Both IOC and IPC are fully boycotted. #Ukraine #Paralympics

Just ban X.

Boycott the winter Olympics. Do not watch it on tv. www.bbc.com/sport/articl...

Ramadan Mubarak to Muslim communities in Britain and around the world. My thoughts are with all those observing under the shadow of conflict or hardship. May this holy month be a time of reflection, compassion and charity.

Behold the brain drain!

Despite making over £20bn in the UK, Starbucks has paid £0 tax in most years. In fact it's total tax paid ever is only about £20m. It pulls this off by paying £40m+ a year to its parent company in the USA so it makes a loss.

Great response! “It’s very hard to believe these accusations. I come from a country [Estonia] that is number two in the Press Freedom Index – so hearing criticism regarding press freedom from a country like the United States, which is 57th on this list, is interesting."

Make it mandatory for every child to be vaccinated to attend school. If parents neglect their children's health, then the state must intervene. In France every child has to have a certificate of vaccination to start school, even preschool. It's the law.
