Reminder that Adolph Hitler, the Ayatollah Khamenei and Vlad Putin were all Time's People of the Year, so you can decide for yourself on which side of the split this grouping fits

All weeks deliver under a Labour government. Some weeks, like this one, are outstanding. Protecting workers in the Care sector and a new Strategy for our young people and the launching of GBR. I applaud this government. We need them!

So, sorry Jo Monk, you’re the Leader of a council, you can’t stop people talking about your terrible record.

Jo Monk took part in a Reform UK statement on how ‘broccoli and a good chat’ are more effective than vaccinations.

Jo Monk claimed people should resign if they cannot attend council, even if due to illness…

…then Jo Monk missed her own Leaders Board.

Jo Monk then got upset that she had to attend long meetings.

Jo Monk miscounted the number of Cabinet members she had and announced they had made a £48k saving…

Jo Monk used the excuse of only having been in office 6 months for why she couldn’t answer council questions… she had been a Tory councillor for years.

Leader of Worcestershire County Council, Reform UK’s Jo Monk sent a cease and desist letter to an opposition member for doing what an opposition does.

To celebrate her fragile authoritarianism, here’s a list of Jo Monk fails. Please share as she ‘doesn’t want her name mentioned in public’

Keir Starmer challenges Kemi Badenoch at PMQs.

"She's living proof - you can say whatever you like when nobody is listening to anything you have to say."

"She's got no credibility on the economy."

"She still believes that Liz Truss was 100% right."

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years.

Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class.

The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

You can support them and still think it’s ruddy inhuman to literally kill people by withdrawing critical care in the busiest time of year knowing that people will definitely die because care was withheld

For everyone whose only chance is an operation before Christmas it is really quite inhuman

He's in a squeeze from the extreme left who would rather shout from the touchlines than have skin in the game & the extreme right-wing press, which is 4/5 major news outlets. Look at the facts & you see a thoroughly decent man deservedly being PM (although I do wish he'd sort his comms out).

It’s quite disappointing that this even gets airtime - I voted for Labour for the first time and joined the party BECAUSE of Keir Starmer and advise anyone to read his biography to understand the calibre of the man

Yes a bit disappointing. But a few people reiterating that Keir should stay. Which I totally agree with.

Hi Nigel Farage, just reminding you that you never did give a straight answer about why you claimed to have bought a house in Clacton.

Why does your girlfriend Laure Ferrari own a £885k house that it was claimed was funded by parents that don’t have the means?

I'm not an economist but I don't see how this doesn't end in economic collapse. 1. Deporting the labor force that maintains our basic necessities 2. Slashing funding for education, government, and healthcare 3. Massive layoffs across the private sector 4. Destroying relationships with allies.

Trump has 3 goals in Ukraine 🇺🇦:

1. Get rid of Zelensky
2. Save Putin.
3. Remove sanctions to enrich the Trump family.

"If Ukraine 🇺🇦 falls, the whole world will be in danger».

Farage is in the mud again: police reports over £9k dodgy spending - a refurbished HQ he “forgot” to declare, an armoured Land Rover shoved into “national” costs, and missing receipts everywhere. Add it to the pile: Russian cash, extremist bile, antisemitic bullying - now alleged fraud too.

The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.

A screenshot of a social media post from a parody account styled as a governor’s press office. The post uses all caps and mocks a political figure by describing a fake award in exaggerated, insulting language. Below it is another post sharing a short video clip from a televised event at the Kennedy Center. In the video still a man in a suit is being given a large decorative medal by another man while cameras and a news chyron run along the bottom. The scene takes place on a stage with a blurred backdrop.

I have 3 kids who have young kids. All 3 got above inflation pay rises for the 1st time in a decade (my daughter a 15K retention payment in the RAF). Free state childcare, breakfast clubs, free lunches. My son in law is a plumber who has an apprentice, his training will now be paid for. 🤷‍♂️

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.
