When George II’s son, the Duke of Cumberland (who had been a war hero in his 20s) capitulated to the French in 1757 he returned home and George II said "Here is my son who has ruined me and disgraced himself.” Cumberland was stripped of his offices and withdrew from public life.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.

However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

🧵 🚨 Brexit reshaped UK’s food system — not just in trade, but in how we value land, farming, and public health.

As lower-quality imports rise, we risk creating two-tier food system: safe, nutritious food for those who can afford it — cheap, chemically-treated goods for everyone else.

Olivier Picard, Chairman of the National Pharmacy Association (NPA): "Brexit has created a gaping loophole now being exploited by unregulated sellers of prescription medication. There’s no longer a trusted way for patients to distinguish between a regulated pharmacy and an illegal operation."

Labour would do well to read this article if they wish to deal with the disengaged, disaffected and deformed voter base that believe that politicians are all the same.

HOT RESEARCH NEWS!

Motonormativity ("car brain") is a bias that stops people making rational judgements about driving en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motonor...

Our new study shows where this bias comes from AND how it makes people think they're odd for supporting changes to the transport system 🧵

I've long campaigned for free school meals for all, so I'm pleased that 500,000 more children in England will now be eligible.

This vital step will lift 100,000 kids out of poverty.

Policies like this is what a Labour government should be doing more of.

A Deform UK voter has complained about my video which includes a picture of Boris Johnson juxtaposed against a UKIP "dildo" on the grounds that nudity offends ... there is no nudity ... but of course Reform UK paedophilia is OK, isn't it?

It takes some heavy-duty chutzpah to put the UK on an anti-Putin war footing while simultaneously supporting the harm done to the UK by Putin's Brexit.

Today is historic.
russia lost Tu-95s, Tu-160s, and an A-50.

That’s a hit to their nuclear shield.
A-50 was their “eyes” in the sky - now blind.
Tu-95s/160s carry nukes - now burning.

These planes aren’t made anymore.
Sanctions = no replacement.

NATO just got stronger.
Putin just got humiliated.

Kent CC has been forced to cancel sessions because new Deform councillors didn’t understand the commitment was near full-time, with as many as four meetings a week!

As a result council work is simply not being done because these pathetic twats refuse to attend.

Elect Deform. Get bent.

Expect much of the media to also focus on small and insignificant issues they don't like to criticise the whole thing, while giving more weight to criticism by political opponents (which are not backed up with data) than they do to the actual government plans!

Interesting & clever technique by the BBC.

Create resentment towards Scotland in England by reporting Scots get NHS treatments they don't.

Create anger in Scotland by refusing to report anything good that Scotland does.

We need #ScottishIndependence and control over our own broadcasting!

‘Sex Matters’ have today published their guidance on toilets based, they say, on the Supreme Court ruling that brought ‘clarity’.

Now in this brave new world of ‘clarity’ what might toilet door signs look like?
