Tory Party women were warned not to get into cabs alone with Boris Johnson.

He tried to treat her the way he treated women Epstein procured for him. Meloni having none of it - considering she comes from a similar political position she has utter contempt for him.

Today, Mike Johnson will continue to keep the House adjourned for the 71st day out of the last 83, with Republicans refusing to show up to work again to avoid having to vote on the Epstein files or negotiate with Democrats.

This is why Trump and MAGA hate AOC. She is a strong, intelligent, light brown skinned Latina who actually SERVES the people!

Sunak!! I'd completely forgotten him. Might be easier to do it by exception. All those in the Tory Party & Reform UK take one step forward if you are not corrupt / in hoc to Russia...

If anyone hasn't realised yet that the 'UK' is under attack from both Russia and exstreme Maga type groups.

Maga want to extend their influence and ideology around the world and we're their obvious target. Both the Kremlin/Maga would win if we could be used to undermine liberal Democracy in Europe

Is he still writing for them? I had no idea.
I have been having quite a few depressing conversations in the last few days - “Reform voting” is more commonplace than we think. Too many (including our well educated kids) have no idea how horrific fascism is.
We need podcasts about fascism urgently

I know. We really needed Levison 2, it was promised but never delivered. ( Watch the end of “The Hack” for information)

The Hack is a timely reminder of Murdoch & Brooks' criminal activities. Leveson II definitely - stopped by Cameron (friend of Rebekah Brooks & the Murdochs). The UK is a sink of corruption among the former Eton/ Oxford set. Simon Kuper's 'Chums' is worth a read too.
