Labours attitudes towards water companies is one of the starkest examples of how they'll do anything to protect the status quo.

The case for water nationalisation is so bloody obvious to everyone - yet they'll do anything they can to keep the failed privatisation experiment.

The fact that Isabel Oakeshott, economic migrant to the UAE may just turn into a refugee fleeing to the UK from a war zone will cause a level of schadenfreude in me that may just make me topple right over.

Rowling is amazing.
Even when she's tweeting about Iran she manages to find the far right, racist Tommy Robinson and Trump supporter and YouTube grifter to promote rather than a feminist.

Farage opposes better workers rights, Braverman wants to dismantle workplace equality, Reform want a lower minimum wage, and your guy writes this? Farage has 9 jobs, never bothers with constituents, is rich enough to argue about whether he banks at Coutts, and he represents the working class? 🀑

Farage cannot cope with his own unpopularity. At all.
With the media’s help and huge foreign donations, his ego has been massaged into such a state of entitlement that he thinks he’s answerable to no one and simply owed power.
It’s become a national imperative to prove him wrong.

Honestly the collective national level of disdain for Brits living in Dubai on all my social media platforms today really is bringing the UK together as one in a way that's hard to achieve in the modern era.

Ed Davey quote which reads: 
No matter how the Prime Minister tries to redefine offensive as defensive, letting the US use UK bases for strikes on Iran is a slippery slope. 

He must not let Trump drag Britain into another prolonged war in the Middle East. 

Starmer must come to Parliament, set out the legal case in full, and give MPs a vote.

We have a duty to defend our brave British troops and citizens in the region, and that must be the focus of any operations. The UK must not be complicit in illegal military action.

My Grandfather had Tourette’s. I know that he experienced prejudice and attempts to bully him. I’ve been pretty stunned that in the reaction to the Davidson episode, we’ve seen a lot of the ignorance that he, a man living his life in the mid 20th century, would have recognised only too well.

this policy is cruel and will make minimal difference to immigration numbers (as refugees are only a small % of overall immigrants, and most of them come from countries that aren't going to be safe any time soon [e.g. eritrea;afghanistan]).

It will actively harm integration and finding work.

Warning UK at risk of being pulled into illegal war

Why is Keir Starmer utterly incapable of saying no to Donald Trump?

Our national security requires us not to be dragged into illegal wars.

The Prime Minister is making us less safe. Did we learn nothing from Iraq?

Refugee status to be temporary as Shabana Mahmood rips up rules on UK asylum Home secretary announces 30-month protection limit, with refugees required to leave if their home countries are later judged safe

So, Labour involves us in America’s aggression and simultaneously plans to make refugee status temporary.
Does politics really have to be this dangerous and cruel? They take such unforgivable risks with people’s lives.

Doctors fear young at risk from β€˜black-market trans hormones’ Medics call for an urgent investigation into trans community groups offering support on accessing supplies for self-medication

Well, yes, trans people are getting drugs; yes, from entirely unregulated sources; yes, without counselling; yes, without blood tests; yes, they are self-administering; yes, without clinical oversight; yes, risking long term harm; yes, it is highly suboptimal.

What did you think would happen?
