Yes, quite. It's the biggest scandal of this administration, so far, probably. It's an average Tuesday under Johnson.
OK this makes me extremely angry. Has everyone forgotten the massive profiteering from thousands of avoidable pandemic deaths?? The unconstitutional suspension of parliament to force through an act of nationalist destruction that cost our children their future??

I don't think any of the usually cited individuals will single-handedly resolve Labour's problems. I do think any of them - right or left - would be preferable to Starmer & McSweeney.
feels like Labour is stuck in the seventh circle of leadership contest hell, ie pingponging endlessly between 'he should go!' and 'but not be replaced by any of the people available in this actual life'

Elon Musk was itching to go to Epstein’s parties, and excited about all the ‘girls’ that would be there, *five years* after Epstein pleaded guilty to *procuring a child for prostitution*. What on earth did he think went on at these parties?

That these humanoid buttplugs even have the nerve to try and justify what has been happening in Minneapolis, instead of looking for a rock to crawl under, is evidence of how far they have degraded politics globally.

I cannot fully explain what it's been like having to watch all of Trump's press conferences for work, in full, for the last year, but I just shouted, actually shouted:

"WHEN WILL YOU TAAAAAKE HIM, DEATH? OR JUST TAKE MEEEE! I DON'T EVEN CARE WHICH ANYMOOOORE."

This is terrible. It is also an opportunity for certain journalists to finally speak up with a *fraction* of the courage the people of Minneapolis have shown. It is also instructive that Lemon is Black. Woe/pox etc upon white journalists who don’t freak out about this.

Matt Goodwin makes a living out of railing against university educated elites & his whole schtick is "he was the first person in his family to go to university", which is a bit weird given that his Dad, now being heavily invoked for his Manchester connection, appears to have a string of degrees.

It's so refreshing finally seeing a party that is not scared to call the far right what it is

It's a very low bar I know but it matters greatly to create space for alternatives

M.H. is a U.S. citizen, and each time he asked the ICE agents who unlawfully detained him if they could loosen his handcuffs, the officers squeezed them tighter.

We're suing the Trump administration on behalf of everyone brutalized by federal agents’ reckless and illegal tactics in Minneapolis.

Call them 'Immigration Control and Enforcement'. Or ICE for short.
