It’s just a crime against humanity. There’s no war. Hegseth is just out here ordering the killing of civilians.
Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) says Pete Hegseth should "resign immediately" if it's true he gave a directive to “kill everybody” in a strike on boats in the Caribbean, including a second strike to kill survivors of the first strike.

“If the reports are true, Pete Hegseth likely committed a war crime."

Jonathan Gullis defects to Reform saying his former party has "lost touch with the people it was meant to serve".

He should know. When he was in Government he took a five-figure donation from JCB, then stayed silent when it axed hundreds of his constituents' jobs just two weeks later

Senior Conservatives have repeatedly promoted a pothole repair machine made by a company which has donated huge sums to the party and its MPs

BBC runnong a 'Disclosure programme in Scotland about migrant hotels.

Isn’t it funny, how we haven’t had a Disclosure programme, about radioactive leaks in the Clyde. That surely affects more folk, than a few BritNat ignorant pricks, shouting at hotels.

Our media has become the story. What they decide is newsworthy, what they scream about, who they accuse, who they excuse, who they blame…

They have an agenda entirely of their own. Not one rooted in public interest or national responsibility. But one that is deeply rightwing and undemocratic.
I must have missed the wall-to-wall coverage of demands for an investigation into Nigel Farage's lies about being a racist

Or about whether he knew Nathan Gill

Or about who bought his house in Frinton

They're going to put Nigel farage in charge soon. Brexit was just the ignorance and stupidity warm-up.

But don't feel too bad. America is even dumber and more ignorant. They turned their country over to the Insane Clown Posse.

"breaking free from the EU", geez, they just can't accept the fact they lied, they knew they were lying and now most people realise they were lying.
"breaking free" indeed, no it was more of a 'self imposed exile' to satisfy misguided, loss of empire, entitled greed.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Why did 4 star admiral Mitch Bradley order a patently ILLEGAL second missile strike after the first attack when two survivors were spotted clinging to the wreck — to carry out Hegseth’s instruction that “everyone must be killed.”

October 2019, around the time Nathan Gill was taking Russian bribes, Nigel Farage and the Brexit party voted against an EU resolution to stop Russian election meddling

The Party said claims of interference were 'baseless propaganda and scare stories.

Because the Trump regime has refused to keep their crimes against humanity internal to America, they’re going to face consequences for their actions. Even if American voters fail to hold them accountable the rest of the world that they’ve pissed off can.

Brexit was never ever about economic benefits to the UK, it was only ever about the ugly racism of the UK public left over from their born to rule, subjugate and exploit coloured races imperialist mindset. The vain glorious clinging to the pre WW2 empire and world power status

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.

Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph

Because this does NOT add up!

He clearly doesn’t understand basic constitutional terms.

FACT: Westminster and Holyrood are parliaments and the governments in each are the current administrations.

FACT: Holyrood is a recognised parliament, just like Westminster, with its own recognised government acting as its administration.
