"You should never overestimate the extent to which the BBC changed this country by giving endless airtime to Nigel Farage, other far right extremists and the Tufton Street junktanks, while shutting out progressive voices." – George Monbiot

Trump has closed down the US Govt. Citizens will have to fend for themselves. But, the religious, GOP hypocrites will be amongst the population, giving them advice.

It's a pity, the mainstream news media in the UK, is doing its best to bring down the Prime Minister and undermine the Govt. The Russian must love them, alongside Reform and their pro Putin leader.

Director of the Danish Defence Intelligence Service Thomas Ahrenkiel: “It is our assessment that Russia is currently waging a hybrid war against Denmark and the West.”

What the Government did in September, although you will never see/hear any of it from the right-wing UK news media, which dominates in the UK. They're more busy giving bias opinions & stirring people into a frenzy. They are doing imense damage to the country, because that's what the owners want.

If Trump tries to go down the road to a dictatorship in the US, I can see these men eventually coming for him.

Good.

Argentina’s libertarian government is such a failure and has created such a mess trying to artificially prop up the peso that not even the promise of a $20 billion U.S. taxpayer funded bailout is stabilizing the country’s markets. A house of cards.

“One of the saddest lessons of history: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle… It's simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we've been taken… Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” - Carl Sagan

NHS waiting times. Comparison between Labour and Tories. The UK is better off under Labour 🌹.

The government has announced the first ever Fair Pay Agreement for care workers. It will see £500m invested in adult social care workers across England with a new body created to negotiate the Agreement. Made up of employers & unions, it will work to improve pay & conditions for care workers.

Unions have welcomed Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ announcement that laws will prioritise British shipbuilding and steel in procurement. ukdefencejournal.org.uk/government-t...

"It's a different sort of war, but the hostility, the cyber attacks, the physical attacks, intelligence work, is extensive."

ICE clowns in Chicago. Why is one wearing a cowboy hat?.

👍👏🍾

ICE 'kidnappers', miss catching a non-white delivery cyclist. Even one of them is wearing a cowboy hat. Is this a new part of the uniform, rather a statement about a 'cowboy' organisation?

Reform UK Councillor Andy Osborne was charged this morning with committing an illegal electoral practice contrary to s106(1) of the Representation of the People Act 1983. His plea hearing is at Westminster Magistrates Court on October 9th. Here’s more on him: www.huntspost.co.uk/news/2522093...

'Hello?. I've got the scoop, on the field that Starmer bought for his mother. I've interviewed two witnesses, who are with me now. I'll be back in the studio tomorrow'.

Starmer is a good PM for the UK. FDR was a good President for the US. Both suffered from regular attacks by the right-wing media. FDR beat them off and the public backed him, against them. Starmer will do the same and win the next election too. Good men, who serve/served their nations.

Russia likes to invade other countries.

I wonder what the Russians are doing for Reform and their buddy Farage?.

The MAGA/GOP in the US.

Most of Europe has digital ID & so should the UK. However, the right-wing media are against it. Why?. It has got nothing to do whether it's good, or bad. Their point of view, is that it's yet another opportunity to attack and undermine Starmer & the Govt., over their digital ID policy.

I was opposed to ID cards but having lived in France for 16 years, I became a firm supporter. There is nothing to fear. Copy what France does.

📽️ NEW 📽️ Does the UK have a dark money problem? Should we be worried? As our Senior Research Officer, @rosewhiff.bsky.social explains - the public have a right to be concerned about the grip of dark money on our politics.

A laughable post, from someone against digital ID in the UK. He's against ..... 'people from associating as they chose'. He then blocks people from replying to his post?. 🤔😂 Duh?.

How is this not front page news? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Trump missed his vocation. He's obviously more suited to being a butler.

Starmer is the PM. The Labour Party was elected, under his leadership. The disloyal people, playing 'pick-me' as PM, are playing into the hands of the right-wing media. They're undermining the PM, for personal gain. They should shut up and back the Govt. and get on with their own jobs.

Just a reminder to Farage/Reform, spinning scare stories about crime in London and how dangerous it is. Fact; crime is down and London is again the best city in the world, for the tenth time in a row!. 👏👍😀

The facts, not the Farage/Reform nonsense.

'Ukraine is to blame for the war' - 'Russia is to blame for the war'. Will the real Donald Trump please stand up.

This is the mess left behind by self declared, patriotic Americans and MAGA supporters, after the Kirk 'send-off' extravaganza. They don't give a sh*t about the US and their patriotism is a veneer.

😕

It has been announced that BBC news and GB news will amalgamate. It was decided that there was no point in having two 'news' programmes, pushing out the same spin about Reform/Farage, boats crossings, migrant hotels, etc. and how bad the Starmer/Labour Govt is.

It's official, from now on dealing with Brexiters moaning about the mess they made, ie 'boat crossings'.

It is possible to cherish the BBC as an institution while also saying that BBC News is failing very badly, day after day, in its duty to inform and that it always fails in a right-wing direction. It desperately needs to recover its integrity

I’m so sick of seeing Farage and co on TV all the bloody time. They now know that if thy hold a press conference on any day ending in a ‘y’, they will be given endless coverage and broadcasting hours. All this for a party that could fit all of its MPs into a hatchback car.

The future under Trump.

The great Gore Vidal. What a pity he is not alive, to see the US become, what he predicted.

He was right.
