Council leaders have found themselves hamstrung by social care costs, but party sources hope they will have the lowest average tax rises of any party

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

This man is an MP isn't he? Surely this is grounds for holding him in contempt of parliament?
Another Brexiter betraying our country by calling on a foreign government to force our government to allow a foreign social media company to publish pornographic images harassing women and girls.
So much for sovereignty and protecting women and girls.

Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

You'd really hope that there is someone vaguely competent left in the Whitehouse who would have advised on this. But, assuming so: what is the real intent?
DANISH PARLIAMENT MEMBER: “🇺🇸 had 30 bases on Greenland, why did you leave? You can resume that tomorrow without attacking a NATO ally… the rationale lacks factual foundation and doesn’t stand any logic testing.”

Quite. It's not even shocking anymore.
Dear BBC Trump is not making plans to 'aquire' Greenland, he's making plans to INVADE Greenland, they cannot 'aquire' something that is not being offered.
Words matter!

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Who better to talk about the civil service than a man who’s never had a proper job and has zero idea what government workers actually do? Everything is easy when you don’t know what the fuck you are talking about.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

A dangerous, racist idiot ITYM
Farage says, "I didn't wear them (masks) last time, and I won't wear them this time" and dismisses mask mandates as "rubbish".
Here's Farage in 2020.
Man's a dangerous idiot.

Can we stop using the euphemism “women’s rights activist” for ardent transphobe?
Lib Dems announce 5 peers including ex-MP Sarah Teather, Tories announce 3 including Olympic swimmer/ women's rights activist Sharon Davies, historian Simon Heffer and former cabinet minister John Redwood. Reform UK don't get any.

Here I am with Reform councillor Andrew Harrison, who was one of a group of people fined over £1m for employing illegal workers. Like all good patriots, he hates immigrants, apart from the ones he can exploit for profit.
