Tax dodger Farage is Threatening care workers who looked after us through COVID, who pay taxes, unlike him.

Netanyahu breaks another Law. The ICC arrest warrant is on its way… The Model mannequin facsimile, Netanyahu says “If it wasn’t for my offensive bombing, ethnic cleansing and genocide, I wouldn’t need to wear this shirt.”

Tommy Robinson tells us that "I came out of prison all guns blazing after 7 months in solitary and in all honesty it’s hit me & I feel wrecked” That trip to the Bahamas clearly took its toll. So, poor love, he needs ANOTHER holiday to recuperate. searchlightmagazine.com/2025/06/wrec...

Tommy Robinson's holiday companion in Tenerife is one of the main instigators of last year's Southport riots. Read about it here: searchlightmagazine.com/2025/06/tomm...

Blog.rorymcleod.com/farages-reform… Leaving the ECHR is what wealthy tax dodgers businessmen like Farage want; they want austerity but not tax cuts for their rich mates, not protection, + limited legal working hours for working people. Not trade union rights, they want to privatise our NHS.

Christianity is an aggressive religion, feudalistic, a Christianity which rejects the teachings of Christ  in favour of a war-mongering, mean-spirited ideology  that valorizes violence + guns over peace + pacifism. Religion and the state should be separated.

I was brought up in Camberwell in my early childhood, shopping in Peckham Rye with our mum. Today would have been our mum Shirley’s birthday. Reminded me of drinks of Sarsparilla from a Caribbean grocery early health food shop that sold ginger too See more blog.rorymcleod.com/childhood-me...

5/ Labour are just trying to manage and run capitalism better than the Tories. No change then!

4/ The Tories denationalised and sold off things that made a profit like the royal‬ ‪Mail and we are still bailing ‪Out companies that fail with public money‬. What is the labour government's argument for this bail out?

3/ It was The Tories who Socialised the debt and privatised the profit. Now labour's version of capitalism want socialism to help when things go bad-bailing out banks+‬ companies that fail with public money.‬ ‪We should already own the banks that we've bailed out ! ‬

2/we would then be able to invest those profits- normally paid out to private shareholders- and modernise our water system.‬ We should be investing in ourselves-using those profits to improve conditions, bring lower prices, instead of that money going to shareholders.‬

1/ I'm shocked + angry by the announcement that we are going to bail out a private water company for its failures billions of £ taxpayers money, when we should be nationalizing them-

Elon musk's figures have recently been proved wrong, completely inaccurate, full of accounting errors, outdated data + miscalculations. He hasn't saved the taxpayer money he claims, and is suddenly concealing information , proving no transparency exists. youtu.be/efzQQBrSQqY?...

An interesting history from someone who was there, who was involved... Worth listening to Covers war, uS foreign policy, Nato, Russia, Baltic states, Netanyahu and more youtu.be/VjcMoDFU1xg?...

What impact did Victorian Jewish migrants have on English spoken in the East End? Does the story of MLE help us understand? How was Yiddish inflected by Cockney language & culture? shows.acast.com/the-cockney-... @bengidley.bsky.social @heather-rolfe.bsky.social @tonythorne007.bsky.social

The Cockney Yiddish Podcast showcases fabulous music by London bands Klezmer Klub and Katsha’nes - where klezmer tunes meet East End music hall. Like the Yiddish language, Jewish music culture changed and adapted in London. @folklondon.co.uk @alte.klezmor.im @oldyiddishworld.bsky.social

blog.rorymcleod.com/elon-musk-is... Trump is cheap kiddies’ entertainer — with big-name donors behind his campaign, the latest being Elon Musk a rich hypocrite who represents Organised greed and wealth. Who will pull up the ladder behind him.

And we thought Farage was against interference from unelected foreigners. (No we didn’t swallow that!) Typical hypocrisy from Farage. I'm also thinking of Henry Ford and the Nazis.

MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!!!!! I know its early but I suffer from premature congratulations. 😐

I made an inappropriately misguided Christmas card a good few years ago. ‘Happy Chrysanthemum’ Full of Intentional blunder, aberration and misinterpretation. P.S. According to our kids chocolate advent calendar there are only 3 days left till Christmas.

2/ I reckon Citizens don't fight and die for flags but for embattled communities of people who stir their most profound feelings of sympathy, empathy and common humanity.
