👏 👏 👏

Madness .

Yes we are.

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

It is time to free Palestine and build a new country for Palestinians. To do so Israel must face the full weight of sanctions and if necessary military intervention to end the Genocide and reverse the occupation. We have heard the word, now lets have the actions.

A State of Palestine is hereby recognised.

RIP , an incredible human being.

Javier Bardem "I cannot work with anyone who justifies or supports Genocide." Good man, this should be everybody's attitude. Never again. For everyone.

Ireland, Slovenia, Iceland, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium and Portugal are now all considering boycotting Eurovision unless Israel are removed. Like if they should. RT if Israel should be kicked out

Israel bombs Quatar , America blows a boat out of Venezuelan waters , small moves , big implications. Trump and Netanyahu are on a killing spree .

🔥🔥🔥 Here's Emily Maitlis crucifying Farage for both breaking the UK and stabbing it in the back. #FascistFarage

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

BBC coverage of Reform is becoming increasingly problematic. And goes beyond the usual white noise. Continuous soft balling is not balance, it is a fundamental abdication of duty. Farage's tax issues, cranks given platforms at their conference, climate change denial. All need coverage. Most haven't.

The only team with 11 right wingers.

“Nigel Farage says….” has been the headline of the decade. Look at what he does, ffs. Look at his tax affairs. Look at his grifting. Look at his lies. Look at his prejudice. Look at his allies. Look at his manifesto. Look at his Brexit. He is the embodiment of personal greed and national failure.

Farage marches right through hypocrisy and out the other side.. to a place of pure corruption. And no one ever stops him. Nor would he step down himself. Hardwired to grift his grubby little way into power.

What on earth has possessed people to believe that Reform’s motley collection of our most abysmal, prejudiced and corrupt politicians - all with a proven track record of epic and piss-taking failure would be a remotely credible government? Seriously people… and media… you’ve lost your goddam minds.

This is a huge story. Don't let him get away with it. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Can we arrest Nigel Farage? It does say in UK law, that a person seeking the Aid of a Foreign Government to undermine the UK Government can be considered Treason. Now he did SPECIFICALLY arrange a meeting with members of a Foreign Government to do exactly such a thing.

If I had time - or a BBC-sized team - I'd assemble all the Daily Mail front pages hysterically celebrating the Tories doing all the things that left the country in the mess that the paper is now moaning about & somehow trying to blame on, *checks notes*, Keir Starmer. They even worshipped Liz Truss!

“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

In a functioning democracy with a decent press, these would be wall-to-wall headlines: Fury as Farage Urges U.S. to Punish Britain Farage Accused of Undermining UK Sovereignty But no... "The stamp duty receipt that ended Angela Rayner’s career" FML

Two things can be true at once. Rayner was foolish in her conduct and right to resign. It’s also true she was always despised by much of the right wing press because she was a working class powerful woman.

"We are the patriotic party" says Nigel Farage, who just spent the past few days slagging off his own country to a foreign superpower, while encouraging them to impose sanctions on our economy if we don't do what they say

The Mail is going to go full Farage. The Telegraph already has, to the absolute horror of the proper journalists still on the paper. Tony Gallagher at The Times is, as ever, waiting for Rupert Murdoch’s instructions. Their only alternative is to own the stupidity of backing Johnson, Brexit & Truss.

"I spoke with a Midlands-based Reform UK candidate. Instead of trying to convince me to support the party by discussing its manifesto policies and ability to govern, he took another approach: he told me that the UN were sneaking ‘military-aged’ migrants into asylum hotels"

The United States is the only place on earth where poor people shun unions, free healthcare, and free education because the rich tell them to.

"In December last year, Resolute 1850 Ltd was incorporated in the UK. With a thinktank soon to be launched and funds from MAGA, American Big Tech and the US religious right already pledged, it seeks to use Reform as a vessel to bring Project 2025-style policies to the UK."

The Media want to encourage racism, they want to encourage violence, they want to spread hate Anything to distract from the real problem, their billionaire owners They are not your friends, they don't provide news, they don't even provide entertainment. It's a lie machine.

It is disgusting how the Media is willing to smear anyone Israel murders as a terrorist without any proof, but won't call Israel War Criminals no matter how many War Crimes they commit.

The ever-eloquent @rafaelbehr.bsky.social pointedly refusing to mince his words on what Farage has done for us. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Cracker Barrel is another example of how cultural grievance is both a distraction and the reason of being for MAGA and the conservative movement. It's about fueling white rage 24-7. Relitigating the Civil War. The Lost Cause. Endless reboots of the Southern Strategy. They have no solutions.

Nigel Farage tells his press conference that his deportations will save the UK "hundreds of billions" of pounds. He knows he can make literally anything up at this point and not be called out for it

Nigel Farage is a cunt.

As Farage parades around the studios and airwaves today can reporters please ask him why there were no Channel crossings prior to the Brexit which he claimed would "take back control of our borders". Thanks

We have never had a 'politician' like Nigel Farage before, who will sit there every day encouraging racism, violence and riots. For this reason alone any sane and decent person should never vote for such a disgusting scumbag.

This is how it’s done , give them no leverage, keep asking the question.

If the Brits don’t get their act together quickly they’ll go down like the USA. “This week Josiah collated the evidence of both Conservative and Reform UK figures flirting with out-and-proud fascists and neo-Nazis.” bylinetimes.com/2025/08/21/t...

Migrants can't answer back. They have no voice. So they make the perfect scapegoat for the pent-up rage of the angry, self-loathing far right who can unite around this issue. In addition it gives the media something to write about in the long summer recess. That is what is really going on here.

Exactly!

Norway is a Socialist Country It has the largest Government surplus in the world at £2tn with a population of only 5.5m. The UK has a debt of £3tn It is the happiest country in world, has the best railways in Europe and taxes all fossil fuels at 78%

41% of Tommy Robinson and Nigel Farage's followers who got arrested at the Riots last year had previous for Domestic Abuse. But apparently it is immigrants who are the problem and not your friendly patriotic wife beater.

Not even 9am. So far on Radio 6, the news bulletins have featured a mother saying her daughters aren't safe because of asylum seekers, a Tory politician lambasting Labour for crossing numbers & Badenoch encouraging councils to lodge legal challenges against hotels. An endless stream of hateful bile.

Cotton candy sky over Glasgow at work tonight.

A closer look at the University of Glasgow from 3.5 mile back with the Nikon 600 zoom from Queens Park , stifling hot night .

How long before ICE opens up overseas branches, to snatch decent citizens from the streets, schools, workplaces and medical centres of Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas, to disappear them? Didn’t the Nazis do just this in occupied Europe? Has Trump reached that part of Mein Kampf yet?

Just received news that 27 people have been arrested in Parliament Square under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action". This is real police state behaviour.
