I like to think that I’m a Socialist with a deep green hue. Oh yes, I’m also an Atheist who lives in the UK.

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

Rachel Reeves has announced a national living wage increase.
Nigel Farage, however, recently argued that the “minimum wage is too high for younger workers.”

She practiced that didn't she. Since the age of 7 by my reckoning.
Utterly juvenile and unparliamentary antics from Kemi Badenoch during her response to the budget.
Desperate, undignified and ineffective.

Nigel Farage went to Dulwich college which charges £55,155 a year.
He then went on to be a Stock Trader like Rishi Sunak, he has never worked a day in his life.

She’s just asking questions.
‘Is Nigel Farage a Russian asset?’
‘Are you seriously asking me that?’

If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.

On Truss & Kwarteng in ‘22. Allister Heath, Telegraph: “the best budget I have ever heard a British chancellor deliver". Alex Brummer, Mail: “a genuine Tory package elbowing to one side the Treasury's fiscal conservatism".

Remember that Farage was one of the laziest MEPs.
He rarely turned up for a vote.

Precisely. This interpretation of ‘balance’ would involve the broadcast of a program in which Harris blatantly & repeatedly lied about winning a Presidential election she had lost & then encouraged her supporters to ‘fight like hell’ against the upholders of the actual result.
Prescott keeps repeating "I thought they'd show a programme about Harris the week after". He really doesn't understand the difference between balance, impartiality and objectivity.

Let’s put aside the schooldays accusations and look, instead, at the Reform leader’s path since then. I think a pretty clear picture of the man emerges, says author and podcaster Musa Okwonga

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.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.
