We’ve had 3 PMs since Johnson. He has absolutely no relevance to this country. The only time he should be on TV is when he’s arrested for Misconduct in Public Office.

Victim-blaming never helps. We’re rightly appalled when it happens in crime such as sexual assault — and we should be equally horrified when it happens in road danger. Stop blaming those harmed. Focus on dangerous drivers & build a culture that respects cycling & the wider benefits of active travel.

Countless people in government — and nearly every billionaire — and hundreds of people with high-profile legal clout — knew about Epstein for decades.

The bobsleighs look enormous after watching the skeleton #WinterOlympics

It doesn’t really matter *why* Trump’s desire to destabilise & divide Europe precisely mirrors Vladimir Putin’s - whether kompromat, self-interest, naked bigotry or something else l. What matters is that Europe treats both regimes like the enemies of progress & democracy they so clearly are.

Tell you what Jim. If the UK has been colonised by migrants, come back, pay your fucking taxes and support the country you purport to love. No? What’s that? You’re happy in Monaco where they don’t impose personal taxes on their residents? Funny that. Tax dodging, unpatriotic racist.

Team luge 😯 Brilliant but crazy #WinterOlympics

Ratcliffe proves you can have loads of money and still be racist and stupid. Brexit supporter, tax avoider, recipient of British taxpayer state aid for his companies, although not the one he moved to Singapore causing British job losses. Of course he thinks Farage is intelligent. Absolute mug.

When we're busy hating each other, they can bleed us dry even more without us noticing.

Just going to leave this here

Thing is id take immigrants over some dude born here, who made billions, literally, argued for brexit and then took his business and tax affairs off shore Thats the kind of patriot we could do with fucking right off

Jim Ratcliffe has not apologised, pls point out he has not apologised, that is not an apology

When you begin a statement with "I am sorry that my choice of language has offended some people..." you are absolutely NOT apologising. You are trying to excuse yourself.

Ratcliffe is where populism leads. To multimillionaires spouting ignorant racist horseshit that divides us but unites the far right in their cynical bid to exploit prejudice for power. Ratcliffe will just shrug from his tax haven home. He doesn’t care. Farage laps it up. Everyone else loses.

Unfortunately there are no consequences for this disgraceful behaviour. Radcliffe will still be a billionaire businessman. Farage will still be in our parliament and Trump is still President. 🥲.

Point of no return:Hellish ‘hothouse Earth’ getting closer scientists say Continued global heating could set irreversible course by triggering climate tipping points. Most people unaware World is closer than thought to a “point of no return” after which runaway global heating cannot be stopped

Snowboard Cross is brilliant 😁 Absolutely love watching this - chaos and changing in seconds. A bit like BMX racing 😁

The British public doesn’t ’foot the bill’ for immigration. The opposite. Immigrants foot the bill for Brits.

Absolutely disgusting decision from the IOC to ban Ukrainian athlete Vladyslav Heraskevych from the skeleton minutes before the event and remove his accreditation, effectively throwing him out of the athletes' village and Games, for wanting to honour his fallen comrades www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articl...

Honestly we need to stop looking up to rich men. And whilst we are doing that, can we stop platforming tax avoiders?

Toby Young, Matthew Elliott, Daniel Moylan, Claire Fox, Daniel Hannan, Michael Gove, Therese Coffey (a Brexit convert), Paul Goodman, John Moynihan, Ruth Lea, Stewart Jackson, Michael Hintze, Charles Moore, David Frost, Theo Agnew; & now John Redwood. Rewarded for the Brexit calamity with peerages.

I see a benefit from a second chamber where experts in the fields of medicine, industry, environmental, scientific, social etc are elected to provide oversight of legislation drawn up by politicians. Clear out the existing HoL and start afresh.

I wish all these rich, tax avoiding, dicks with shitty opinions would fuck off.

Farage? Yeah, he’s a cunt.

No, Sophie Rigsbyski, this isn't the scandal of the century. £millions in dodgy covid PPE contracts, 100s of 1000s of unecessary deaths, Arcuri, Lebedev, £2000 rolls of wallpaper are the biggest scandals. Farage's close friendship with a rapist, pedophile, Epstein, Putin and Bannon is the biggest.

President Trump, your Melania movie has bombed

Very disappointed to hear BBC News' Gary O'Donaghue refer to the child abuse images within the Epstein Files as "child pornography". That phrase was discontinued many years ago, because it's not pornography; it's child abuse.

If you’re in the Epstein files, you should lose your job, your wife, and your comfy life. You should be castigated by society and spend your days in prison, being trotted out once a day so the public can boo you to your face.

It's a whole new language... "Goofy switch backside 1800 with toe grab" #WinterOlympics #Snowboarding

Do we really have to do an America and allow ourselves to be gaslit into a Reform govt and all the ugly carnage that entails? Please god can we not fall into the same trap just because we couldn’t be arsed to think or care enough.

Every American needs to watch this:

Totally agree. The repair bill is insane. Parliament should leave Westminster, switching to a new location every 10 years to keep MPs in touch with the country/people. First stop, Middlesbrough. Also, a modern setting would expose the absurdity of its arcane rituals.

With criminality this serious ending in death, what other crime would escape national news? This was only BBC local. What more must happen for a lifetime ban? Driving is a privilege, not a right. Our culture — and sentencing — needs radical change. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I think it’s time for chaos with Ed Miliband.

What bloody freedom did brexit give us exactly? The freedom to pay more for necessities? The freedom FROM movement?

If society can’t come together to condemn the abuse of children, then humanity has truly lost its moral compass.

You're assuming incompetence instead of malice. The media will always act in bad faith to misrepresent progressive policies as outlandish and dangerous.

Please don’t turn the Epstein files into a joke. This is real for survivors. Many former victims are realizing for the first time they were used by a system. How this is discussed online matters. Tread carefully.

I can't believe some parents idea of parenting is physically beating your child to submission because their generation didn't believe in mental or emotional health. I swear, people were extremely stupid and emotionally detached back then. Even 20 years ago, people were still believing in this.

No fireworks. No parties. No flags. No celebrations. No comments from the Brexit leaders. No "wasn't that a great idea." Six years after we left the EU - everyone knows it was a disaster. But....

So Trump wants to have the lowest drug prices in the world. How about free? Ooh, no, not universal free healthcare...

The only difference between the killing of protesters in Iran and in the USA is one of scale. So far.

Are we gonna just gloss over the fact two Democrat members of Congress were attacked by Nazi nutjobs in the past week and how that’s not a common thing that happens twice in one week, or…

I’m sure Indian billionaire, Sunny Varkey, wants to give Farage a ton of cash to improve the lives of the people of Clacton. And definitely not to lobby for crypto or fossil fuels or to have first dibs on the firesale of British assets (eg the NHS) that Farage is bartering for power. FFS wake up UK.

Today is Holocaust Memorial Day. Just saying. 😞

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

I'm in tears of joy listening to Dr "Matilda" on @mrjamesob.bsky.social - what an amazing lady and story

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions. It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

It's always the guns, always. A violent, uneducated, gun addicted society that refuses to acknowledge the real issue.
