When your past finally catches up, what do you do? What do you do?
When the record shows you voted against every measure meant to help working people—what do you do? What do you do?
When stories about your ties to Russia won’t disappear, what do you do? What do you do?🤨👇

🚨DJT wins at one thing: He is the most crass and embarrassing person to ever represent at least half of the country - whether they would admit it or not. Too, nobody who is innocent of having misled the country intentionally acts like this.

Senile Satan, Con Junior and Fredo announced their phone in June, promising delivery in August to commemorate a decade since Satan came down the escalator. Not one phone has been delivered and good luck getting a refund. They took 590,000 deposits totaling $59 million.

I guess it’s a good thing we were so concerned about the right to speak our opinions being outlawed by a ruling class that we guaranteed it by making it the very first amendment in our Bill of Rights when we formed the country.

"We will always be on the side of working people", Farage's 'Letter to the Nation' says today.
What he neglects to admit is that Reform plans to cut £300+ billion from the public services that these "working people" rely on every day.

Why is this not part of the discussion on Rachel Reeves balancing her books & stalled growth?
For every 100,000 drop in net immigration, the OBR adds £7bn to the deficit. #r4today

I don't see how Tesla's Model 3 can survive if Benz can offer an alternative EV this cheap, with this kind of performance, on top of the 15% tariff that it's charged in the US.
Imagine what this model does to Tesla in Europe, where Benz pays no tariffs.

Trump followed Putin’s advice and revoked the offer of Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine. The leaked call comes just days after the U.S. presented a 28-point peace plan to end the war in Ukraine, largely reflecting Russian positions.

That is roughly one in five households in the party’s local strongholds.

You only really see how fundamentally broken Britain is when you take the time to look.
Example: international postage. We pay much MUCH more to send letters to the rest of the world than they do to send them to us.
UK to anywhere else: £3.40
Other countries to UK: 68p to £2.15
