Proud to unveil the Child Poverty Strategy.

IT'S JUST LIKE WATCHING BRAZIL!!!

I got 69. Which is not far out. The sixties is my musical decade.

And have you noticed a big uptick in “benefits” stories at the moment?

Probably completely unrelated(🤔) to the fact we’ve had the longest run with no small boat crossings for 2 years, and the latest immigration stats are down at pre-pandemic levels…

They’ve gotta find a scapegoat somewhere🙄

What was your listening age, 150?

Newsom kills it with his trolling.

Yeah, I am too. Are they claiming that the Democrats organised J6 to prevent Biden from becoming President?

What a dickhead.

Ireland, Spain and the Netherlands to boycott Eurovision 2026 as Israel cleared to compete Decision not to hold vote on Israel’s participation comes in spite of several broadcasters calling for its exclusion

Ireland, Spain, Netherlands, Slovenia to boycott Eurovision.

65% voted in favour of changes to public voting system to be enough to address disquiet over Israeli "public" support. So there was no vote on opposition on the grounds of war in Gaza

MS NOW: Are you getting any support from Republican colleagues saying this kind of rhetoric isn't okay?

ILHAN OMAR: No. And it isn't surprising because the Republicans have bent the knee. They've welcomed his disgusting rhetoric. I'm not expecting any of them to develop a backbone now.

Jacob Frey: "If we are now at the point where the federal govt is deploying agents on legal American citizens with a goal of uprooting people who have formed lives here, have families here, started businesses here, definitively made Minneapolis a better place, everybody should be speaking out."

The commonality of both Signalgate and 'kill em all' is that he's an unqualified drunk who plays with people's lives out of an emotional need to look cool and manly in front of the SOF guys he never joined when he served.

Exactly. This is the problem with FPTP. Lurching from one extreme to the other. PR would solve this problem. Coalitions mean more continuity.

Ridiculous. We've all just seen him falling asleep during a live press conference.

This is the President of the USA. Falling asleep at a live press conference. The leader of the most powerful land in the world. THIS IS NOT FUCKING NORMAL!!!

Isn't repeating yourself over and over again in one sentence a sign of dementia?

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

It's like when you're trying to watch a film late at night and you keep nodding off.
