UK gov idiotically to charge EV road tax per mile & ask people to pay up front for the year. No other country would use such a rediculously awkward taxation mode. How much you are going to drive in a year? Stupid. Just report milage yearly at MOT time. www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/pay-...

Great! But of little importance & probably untrue. StarWars was a film not a philosophy. What real people must do is resist & indeed, there is a lot of soft targets. Hit soft targets & keep your mouth shut, because America is a Fascist culture - Trump a symptom. Action from millions: bring it down.

Hearing the US president's incoherent ramble before the UN, I laughed aloud. America is truly a special place where anyone can be a president, even when it's clear they shouldn't be a president. How embarrassing! How dangerous (but darkly comical) our world is because this clown is a president.

We don't need billionaire's permission to tax them & or have to worry about "flight of capital" -- govern.ent can just freeze assets. The USA, UK & any major power has the ability to track, trace, & sequester assets & imprison for tax evasion. Lawmakers don't because they're tied to billionaires.

Scumball millionaire Blair raking in money from the autocratic billionaire class yet again. At least he's getting paid... before, when he was kissing George W Bush's ass, he was just doing it for status.
Digital ID is a Blair obsession. ‘Solving immigration’ is simply the latest spin on it.
But it *is* spin. Blair has taken hundreds of millions of tech money to push a corporate AI agenda on Starmer’s government with huge success. This is part of a vast massively resourced big tech lobbying op

Can I just say, Faith, whichever incarnation, is the front door to disreality, but Faith is also the back door for Fascism to power. We see it in Russia, in Israel, in Iran, and the United States. eu.usatoday.com/story/news/2...
Religious Americans are divided over Charlie Kirk. But they all agree on this.
Many on the evangelical right view Kirk as a martyr, while other faith groups criticized his politics. All denounced further violence.

We abhor political violence. But why's mass murder of students less important than murder of political activists. Gun violence: Politicians can deal with it or like everyone else be it's victim. What's a tragedy for this young man & his family, is also a tragedy for many others & their families.

How outraged the Europeans are at the latest Russian atrocity ! So David Lammy CALLED IN the Russian Ambassador to say THIS IS UNCOOL. So Germany & France's foreign ministers DID THE SAME!!!. OH MY! thought Mr Putin, they're a noisy bunch, been squalking for 1000 days! But squalking is all they do.

This is bullshit. Europe's not really doing what it can, and never has. Just big words from little rascals. European leaders know if they were serious about stopping Russia, they could step up much bigger. Why hasnt' Europe placed 100% secondary tariifs on India & China for buying Russian oil?
A free, democratic and independent Ukraine.
That's what you are fighting for.
That's what our efforts are all about.
We are with you, for as long as it takes. Because a free Ukraine is a free Europe.
Happy Independence Day, Ukraine!
