Farage says leaving the ECHR is the “unfinished business" of Brexit and that the UK is "not sovereign” while we are in it.

But Farage lies. And Brexit is a shitshow. So, “finishing” it should fill us all with dread.

Sovereignty without rights is dictatorship.

Farage is trying to distance himself from Brexit, using the “this isn’t the Brexit I wanted” line.

And the gammons will lap it up. Far too stupid to realise they were conned.

Always be wary of politicians insisting that the only way to truly “take back control” is to remove our rights and freedoms. We lose our protection from abuses of power while our country loses trust and influence on the world stage. That’s not control. It’s weakness.

Labour pledge to increase minimum wage in line with inflation. That’s going to happen in April and hopefully every year Labour are in Government.

Reform thinks the Minimum Wage is too high.

I want the Chancellor to protect:

NHS
Net Zero
Children
Young People
Minimum Wage
Workers

If that means a bit more tax so be it.

“His main theme was that the country was fucked. Largely because of Brexit. Weirdly, he has no memory of being the main architect behind the Brexit vote. He seems to think it happened in a world in which he played no part.”

Farage - the foghorn of failure.

685,000 Britons has wealth of £2.8 trillion, 48m have £2.4trn.

4 people have more wealth than 20m Britons.

Bottom 50% of the population has 5% of wealth, the bottom fifth only 0.5%.

"There should be no billionaires." That’s not a radical statement – it’s a moral one.

Democratic Socialism isn’t about control. It’s about reclaiming power from the ultra-rich.

Who might lead the fightback?

Guy Anthony Ayres in the US has a view

Democratic socialism – truth, justice, and the “New” American way

Is the US tired of politics as usual? Is it time to embrace a bold new path? Is Democratic Socialism the new American Way for 2025 and beyond?
