Yep. But flippin' Reform won't tell you this. P.S. It's neighbours not neighbors...
The full transcript of Numpty's speech commemorating the 250th Anniversary of the Adoption of the Declaration of Independence July 3, 2026. He obviously didn't write it, even if there are a lot of superlatives. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
Telegraph readers say: Andy Burnham offers soundbites but few credible solutions to Britain’s problems BUT in in today's Telegraph it states: "higher council tax on expensive homes in London and the South East, £40bn of borrowing to build council houses, income tax cuts for lower earners... " YES!
Elon Musk, Tommy Robinson and other evil far-right agitators are pure evil. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...
Yes, yes, yes. The educational system is failing far too many young people. www.theguardian.com/business/202...
Thank you Yvette Cooper for being the sensible adult in the room. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
A sonnet by Percy Shelley about England under George III in 1819 but it could just as easily apply to the USA under Trump in 2026.
And it is all funded by far-right billionaires with their own agendas: "driven by a vicious combination of tech companies profiting off the amplification of hate online, funded by people like tech billionaire R Shillman to further their own agendas ... "
Wes Streeting is not to be trusted. He gave contracts to Palintir and is continuing to privatise the NHS. He is power-hungry and is only looking out for himself. They say our eyes are the window to our soul:
A very, very powerful article on why J D Vance is VERY dangerous. I have picked out some key - and extremely scary - passages. The world needs to be scared. Arthur Miller must be turning in his grave. Joseph McCarthy is probably dancing with glee. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Thank you to 'Claudia's post' for spelling the dire danger the UK is in, with these power hungry wannabes rocking the boat: "I want to say this clearly, as someone who has said all week that I want Starmer to stay. Every hour Labour spends fighting itself is an hour given to Reform UK." See below.
Sadiq Khan is the best thing to happen to London in a long time. Despite facing horrific challenges, both human-made & natural, he has transformed London. Anne Hidalgo and Zohran Mamdani are two more excellent examples of city mayors. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
I hate to say this but there is some 'truth' in what Farage is saying. However, what he has missed out is speaking of the millions of pounds he has received in backing from billionaires around the world. And they are backing him because they want a world where the rich get (even) richer.
Thank you Mr Pope. Perhaps now a man is saying this, we will be heard. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
In France, the 1st May really is a holiday for all workers - and whatever day of the week it falls on, that is the day we have off.
