Government ID cards: As approved by a War Criminal.

If Digital ID is introduced and Reform UK is elected they can institute Health Insurance in one day. Goodbye NHS on day 1.

US data centres will drain our energy resources and employ less than 40 people on minimum wage. The profits will go back to America. A great read, warning of the deadly perils of Starmer’s agreement with Trump allowing America’s big tech to build mega data centres in the UK👇

NEW: Labour are reportedly delaying the release of a major investigation into child poverty for political reasons

Cut the bullshit distractions. Release the Epstein Files.

Here’s a thought👇

“Farage often says he lives rent-free in British politicians’ heads, but Trump lives rent-free in Nige’s. He’s The Donald’s emissary to the UK. An existence dedicated to sanitising Trump’s madness for a British audience” Crace nails the menacing idiocy of Farage. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

Ha

Oh look Billy Bullshitter has been called out by The Royal Parks and the RSPCA. He really is a total throbber if only those that give him a platform would stand up to his fashy wafflebollocks

The thing is, Sadiq Khan hasn't had to resort to lying or exaggeration. And hasn't even begun to dig into any of the truly worst things about him. And you know what, world leaders? You can do this too.

You would never pay £6 million for something you wouldn't even consider doing. This has all the hallmarks of "if there's smoke, there's fire". www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

well that escalated quickly

Phony gestures. UK energy suppliers to offer tariff with lower standing charge but customers would then pay more for each unit of energy. Profiteering continues unchecked. 20 energy companies made £514bn operating profit since 2020. Nationalise energy. Let customers vote on exec pay, dividends.

I’m old enough to remember that “I was just following orders” was no defense. Nor is it now.

Some of us do.

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

Jimmy Kimmel is being brought back for the same reason he was suspended: Corporations only care about money. Which is why boycotts work.

Trump to say that taking paracetamol during pregnancy can cause autism. Previously he suggested that people should inject themselves with disinfectants to beat COVID. Science does not support his claims. Trump is an embarrassment to the whole world.

Aviation expansion is a disaster for the climate crisis. Anyone who's been paying any attention to this shambles of a Labour Govenrment knows they don't care about people in poverty, don't care about nature nor for the planet. Just big business & their own interests. #Gatwick

It's party conference season. We thought it was time to see where each party stands on public ownership. 🔎 Some of the results might surprise you! Check out our full Public Ownership Party Scorecard via link in comments below👇

So a MAGA algorithm then. No thanks.

Europe’s richest man opposes wealth tax. Estimated to have wealth of $169bn (£125bn), resents paying extra €1bn (£817m). Would it make any material difference to his lifestyle? How does anyone get this rich without squeezing labour, customers? Wealth opens doors to unaccountable political power.

“It’s time to change the narrative. Tommy Robinson does not represent the majority of Britons. We aren’t afraid. We’re angry. And we won’t be defeated.” The power we need coming from @sangitamyska.bsky.social here www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Ed Davey, "Nigel Farage helped cause the small boat problems, because before Brexit we had 27 return agreements with the EU" - maybe call them Brexit boats?

As a very closeted trans kid who grew up on too much Judge Dredd I approve of this statement. bylinetimes.com/2025/09/22/e...

Update: A Green Party of England & Wales spokesperson tells me they've just broken 78,000 members Which means the party has jumped 5,000 in less than 5 days. Picking up a lot of Your Party backers no doubt And it's up by 10,000 - about 15% - since Zack Polanski was elected leader. A big cash boost

British media pumps out daily propaganda pieces for Farage, fails to offer *any scrutiny* and basically legitimises rampant racism, then puts on its ‘innocent face’ and clutches its pearls at the rise of the far right… What a grim betrayal of our democracy. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/how...

White men should not be world leaders.

"We cannot let the fear of speaking out become normal. We cannot allow truth-telling to become a crime. AND WE CANNOT LET THEM SILENCE US!" - Rep. Maxwell Frost

We're witnessing the culminating rot of shareholder capitalism in real time. Some of the most powerful corporations in America have sided with an authoritarian regime in order to protect their short term profits — the fundamental rights of everyone else be damned.

Brighton & Hove gets it! 🟢✊

The main story on BBC 6 Music News this morning is that a ‘boat carrying migrants is on its way to France’ Delivered in the same upbeat tone as England winning the women’s Euros. The migration ‘debate’ in this country is unmoored from reality, and the media-political complex is feeding it

This is a great cover.

Strong argument for moving Bluesky's data infrastructure to the EU
