I kept the faith & I kept voting Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand For theirs is a land with a wall around it & mine is a faith in my fellow man.

The people of Gorton & Denton deserve much better than an opportunist extremist using their community as a platform for his own career. HOPE not hate will be actively campaigning to make sure Matthew Goodwin does not get elected.

Wow, what have the poor citizens of Gorton & Denton done to deserve the attention of born again Trump fan and all round far right weirdo Matthew Goodwin?

When a fascist has a weapon that can hurt all those he hates, he's going to use it.

When Trump decides he's hurt Minnesota enough for now, he'll start executing people elsewhere. That's no policy shift—it's making sure fear is equally distributed.

If you're in a blue state, get ready for invasion.

Thank God there were people filming. This administration would have said Alex Pretti pulled a handgun, a package of fentanyl, and a signed copy of the Communist Manifesto if they could.

I love the fact that the wardrobe Sid and Bernie used for this film was the same that James Bond used in OHMSS, filmed in Pinewood around the same time.

May I remind everyone that there is currently NO cure for rabies.

May I also remind everyone there is absolutely NO scientific proof connecting ANY vaccine that we produce today with autism.

This is true regarding vaccination in both humans AND in dogs.

Vaccinate your pets please.

Have asked a number of NEC members to tell me the chances Andy Burnham has of being selected to fight a by-election.

The BBC has gone beyond both-sidesism, and frequently now presents only Trump's account of events

(This isn't the only recent example)
The BBC North America editor tells us that Trump doubts that NATO would respond if the US asked for help.

She doesn't point out that the US is the only NATO member which has ever invoked Article 5, and that it got help. From Denmark and others.

Farage lied when he said he was too ill to appear for the BBC interview on Sunday.
The Heartland Institute, whose party he attended instead, doesn't believe in tobacco harms, climate change and seeks the dismantling of the NHS.
Be warned. If you care

You can't watch Trump's speech at Davos and believe this sane washing bullshit.

I think, genuinely, that American media outlets are too embarrassed to report the truth. Relatedly, Democrats are reluctant to tell the public, whose votes they need, quite how foolish they were to elect him.
