Net Zero is not something you can be against; it is a point in time when emissions of man-made greenhouse gases are no greater than their absorption (man-made or natural). You can argue about how and when but not about whether.
Orban “endowed” the Mathias Corvinus Collegium with more than $1bn of Hungarian taxpayer property, much of which was spent funding U.K. & U.S “public intellectuals”, viz grifters, to promote Fidesz’ pro-Putin/Trump anti-EU propaganda. Its Chairman was his political director.
The only excuse for this mindset is that the truth is too unbearable. It is no less grotesque and unforgivable for that.
More than the entirety of the former budget of Trump abolished USAID to be spent on detention centres alone. A nationwide apparatus of camps capable of deporting 1million people per year (with no due process).
Jenrick and Hannan are tweeting in their classic careless and obnoxious form, putting people’s lives at risk. What they don’t perhaps realise is that so called ‘lefty’ judges are very much the exception; mostly judges are ultra-conservative to the benefit of the incumbent Government.
Silencing of dissent, and intimidation against those who are thinking of speaking out.

Classic Labour MP. Posh London boy projecting everything he’s “learnt”. He made it clear to me, that they won’t keep these seats if they don’t say this stuff. Does he believe it? I doubt it very much.
Vance should have a look. The USA firmly rejected this in its struggle for independence, enshrining a ban on it in its Constitution.
Once upon a time, it was possible for the English Parliament to pass a bill condemning a person or group of persons without giving them any right to due process. 1/2
Absolutely extraordinary. What he does not say is what, if any, due process is required to kill a non-American citizen.
The U.K. cannot continue to pretend it can make a “deal” with these people.
How do you completely opt out of this? Looks like others could share your messages?
