Oh have HMRC waiting for them at the airport to declare it all

I don't entirely understand why we should use our tax money to save tax dodgers who moved to a slave state because they didn't want to contribute to our country.

Actually zero sympathy for anyone who visits or moved there and is now stuck.

Let me guess, wealthy people who moved to Dubai to avoid paying taxes now want the countries they moved from to protect them?

Hell of a legacy you’re building there, dummy. It doesn’t matter how many times you plaster your name on buildings and ballrooms in tacky gold letters. Your grave will be one big beautiful public urinal.

Called it. He's using British bases as a launch point for American attacks.

I'm so sick of this country being America and Israel's lapdog. It's pathetic.

The number of civilians killed already, the instability unleashed already, is unconscionable. We've learnt nothing.

“I fear for … British democracy” says the man proposing to suppress the ability of people to vote.

BBC impartiality here is shown to be laughable because they have two Americans and a correspondent from Tel Aviv but no representation of the numerous European voices questioning the legitimacy of this assault. No voice given to those concerned for Iranian civilians - only American and Israeli polls

Slaps!

It's all about oil and power. Yet again. It's American military dominance to ensure the profitability of the oil companies that are objectively killing the future of our species.

This is completely unconscionable.

And talking about restoring the Shah as "democracy" is transparently laughable.

Trump took one look at Putin's playbook in Ukraine and decided to copy it.

Killing Cartel leads and destabilising Mexico, kidnapping Maduro from Venezuela and now killing Khamenei - America only has regard for American interests and doesn't consider the safety of civilians in these counties.

He's 86, and the figurehead of an expansive and entrenched regime. You think the regime doesn't have other leaders? That they're not going to see him as a martyr? That this isn't going to unleash chaos and violence across the region?

Israel requires that instability and violence to justify its own.

Killing Khamenei won't bring peace to Iran and will not topple the regime. Israel aims to destabilise regardless of the consequences on normal Iranians.

That explains why she shoe horned in sex based rights at every opportunity

"Liberal Femboycrats"

Look, I know the Tories are huffing glue, but genuinely what the fuck is going on over there.

The weird Andy Burnham Kirk song? Log off you sad weirdo.

Nigel Farage MP @Nigel_Farage “Reform has today reported the many cases of 'family voting' to the Electoral Commission and Greater Manchester Police. What was witnessed yesterday is deeply concerning and raises serious questions about the integrity of the democratic process in predominantly Muslim areas.”

When Greater Manchester Police tell Farage to sod off, he will then of course accuse them of “two-tier policing”.

Starmer is going to drag us into a war to posture strength after losing a by-election.

Pathetic little gimp.

• In England and Wales, drug-related death rates are: • highest for 40 to 49-year-olds at 14.7 deaths per 100,000. This is at least 1.5 times higher than for any other age group • more than twice as high for men than women (12.8 deaths per 100,000 compared with 6 per 100,000) • higher in the north of England. In the North East the rate is 17.4 deaths per 100,000, three times as high as the rate in London (5.8 deaths per 100,000) • more than five times higher in the most deprived fifth of local areas (21.7 deaths per 100,000) than in the least deprived fifth of local areas (4.1 per 100,000).

I’m pleased to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social standing firm on drugs legalisation - if they actually cared about the lives of white working class men they’d be seeking solutions, as drug related deaths are 3x higher in the 93% white North East than London with deprived areas being by far the worst

The real threat to democracy doesn't come from 'family voting'. It comes from the losing side refusing go accept they've lost

Also to note - Mahmood is essentially saying that immigration policy should be made entirely for political reasons and those reasons should be what they think their ideal type working class voter believes. Quite literally a policy of pandering.

Reform voters hate Labour.

Former Labour voters hate Labour.

As Gorton showed they're intentionally alienating the majority of the country, this country's young liberal future, to chase pensioners to the bottom. Its bourgeois to use immigration as a distraction rather than focus on real issues.

The Iranian regime is fucking abysmal but have we really leant nothing from Libya, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, etc.

I can only fear this will strengthen the regime and make protest harder. The only thing it seems to genuinely achieve is provide more eternal war for Israel to legitimise itself.

Practically anyone working for the state in any other capacity has to be, so it strikes me as pretty insane you wouldn't want that

Through a mixture of ineptitude and arrogance they welcomed people to take the chance. I wonder if they consider this lesson at all. Vetting needs to be separately understood as leadership loyalty

Honestly so so glad I met my boyfriend in person by shooting a shot!

Don't get me wrong I have the literary awareness to realise the HEAVY handed catholic nonsense at play here with the three cities, the holy water defeating demons, the significance of faith and the FUCKING PRIEST

But still, by its own logic, get a grip.

I've just watched signs, probably for the first time. And like..

How did it take that long to find out the aliens were killed by water? The aliens would be fucked if they attempted invading Manchester.

It takes "three cities in the middle east" to discover water, and they're called primitive 💀

I can't wait for summer, corner shop tinnies, mild sunburn, silly antics, snacky snacks and fun little trips

I've got one evening off for the first time in ages to catch up on housework and do the tasks I need to and I DON'T WANT TO.

IM BORED

From the party that brought you "protest is terrorism" we really shouldn't be surprised that they accuse millions of Brits who would vote green as extremists

Labour MP Ian Byrne: "The lines from the PM and Cabinet today essentially labelling the Green Party as extremist is appalling, desperate and frankly embarrassing.

"It also makes very clear that the leadership has zero understanding of where it has been going wrong."
