Farage, eh? Always on the wrong side of history. Prime mover in Brexit, loved Liz Truss's budget. Reform isn't a political party - it's a company.
Let's not fall for the same bullshit the Americans fell for. Tell the twat to fuck right off.

We are just Germany in the 1930s instead of blaming Jews we are blaming migrants.

But they aren't responsible for Austerity, Brexit or the profiteering crisis.

Feels like the horror of Hamas wasnt fully understood in the US . I spent nearly a week in Gaza and it was clear that people fear & hate them.
Now Hamas is publicly executing people.

Btw they were voted into power in 2006 promising to make Gaza great.
No elections have been permitted since 2006

Whatever is currently happening to humanity, it is happening to all of us. No matter how hidden the cruelty, no matter how far off the screams of pain and terror, we live in one world.

As the richest guy in the world, Musk could leave one hell of a legacy. He could solve world hunger or build Carnegie-like centres of knowledge. Be the kinda guy whose name lives on for all the right reasons

Instead he's chosen to stoke race hate, wreck twitter and appoint himself Wanker of the Age

The Green Party, specifically Zack Polanski, are doing a great job of exposing the lies emanating from the likes of Robert Jenrick and Farage. Seeing the observable truth from real people, is to me the best policy. Interview refugees, film in multicultural Britain, listen to the voices there.

Rachel Reeves should consider welfare cuts in budget, says right-wing IFS.

They want the govt to hurt the poor, old, sick, disabled; curtail redistribution which enables millions to survive.

Silence on corporate welfare, ending profiteering, tax abuse by corporations/rich.

It is class war.

All about enrichment of themselves while preaching morals and the right thing to do hypocrisy

2/2 this holier than though if you have the money and you are untouchable , we see it in politicians right through society and it's no wonder the last 30 years there's a distrust & disconnect from top to bottom from our so called leaders and why the likes of Farage blooms in this space

This although to do with laws in the UK , is why there is such a disconnect from top to bottom, if it was me or anyone else I'd probably be in prison, althought this happened under @conservatives.bsky.social we see the same resolution from a @teamlabouruk.bsky.social 1/2

If we get a day to remember the 1,200 Israelis who were killed on October 7th.

We would need every day of the year and then another half a year to remember the 600,000+ Palestinians who Israel have murdered.

Yet again, Tory pseudoscience. Anxiety is a serious life-limiting medical condition. It can kill - the Torys’ cruelty would certainly do so. Medical diagnosis to avail of welfare is challenging & the payments derisory. What nasty people.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social is asked about the Home Secretarys comments that yesterdays protests about Israels actions were dishonourable (she also said they were unBritish).

Zack is spot on.

What on earth is this bullshit headline?

Genocidal lunatic part of a government directly responsible for the massacre of over 20,000 children and as many women, blames Kier Starmer for today's terrorist attack.

This is dangerous and inflammatory from a truly awful shitrag.
