How absurd is it that people in the UK are still being arrested under “terrorism” charges for supporting Palestine Action, a non-violent group that disrupted the weapons industry, yet you can support the occupation in the UK, a pro-violent group committing terrorism daily, and be completely fine.

Can someone explain to me why it takes 30 days to release the Epstein files, when a few months ago they didn’t even exist?

I implore someone, anyone, in the media…

Do your job

And the next time you have Farage on, please ask him directly:

…what were the motivations behind this?

A federal judge didn’t “steal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powers—she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

We need to drop this idea that exposing Farage as a nasty bloke is cutting much ice. We know this. His followers know it. Much better to relentlessly attack the deep and lasting harm he has done to the nation by securing hard Brexit.

People have a right to feel frustrated.

But Nigel Farage is turning it into anger and division.

He's directing it away from the wealthy and toward the vulnerable.

Who benefits?

Him and his donors.

I remain genuinely gobsmacked that this wasn’t picked up more. The Alex Jones who *repeatedly accused grieving parents of making up their children’s murders*.
Anyway, “after the news we’ll be joined by Nigel Farage & definitely won’t be asking him about any of this…”
On US TV shows and podcasts from 2009-18, Farage discussed supposed plots by bankers to create a global government, citing Goldman Sachs, the Bilderberg group and George Soros as threats to democracy. Included six guest slots with the disgraced far-right US conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

Our SEND system faces collapse, yet private equity firms providing SEND education are raking in soaring profits.

I fully back @bathnes.bsky.social call for the Government to cap provider's profits at 8%.

Children with special needs must come first - not greedy companies cashing in on the crisis.

The only reason Gill stopped being the Reform UK leader in Wales was because he failed to win a seat in the 2021 Senedd election.

Zia Yusuf keeps trying to make this sound like this is ancient history, and Reform washed their hands of him, but nothing is further from the truth.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Friday night, we learned that the DOJ lied about the door being closed to Costa Rica. Mr. Abrego's lawyers feel that's enough to immediately dismiss on vindictive and selective prosecution grounds.

Johnson spent years charming, bluffing, and backstabbing his way to the top.

Positioning himself as a latter-day Churchill when the moment came and leadership was desperately needed, he showed us who he was...

And thousands died.
