It’s about time!

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Reform UK Reform UK abandoning manifesto pledge of £90bn in tax cuts, deputy leader admits Richard Tice says party will concentrate on cutting civil service and scrapping net zero once in government

BREAKING NEWS

In a move that has shocked absolutely no one with basic arithmetic skills, populist right wing party trying to win votes with fantasy economics traipses around in fetching hair shirt after all their policies are found to be economic fantasy.

Just Boris Johnson talking absolute bollocks once again... And WTF is going on with his hair? He looks like an animated toilet brush

Brexit is Farage and his fellow Brexiters' shitstorm to own. He/they can't be allowed to just pivot from heckle to heckle and bad idea to worse - while blaming everyone else - without consequences.

I recently sat down with three leaders who are part of the @obamafoundation.bsky.social's alumni network to hear more about their work to strengthen democracy in Hungary and Poland. They’re an example for us all. Take a look:

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

Surely, what the bespectacled Scoobie Doo villain means to say is that, regardless of who wins the Mid Terms, tRump's presidency will still end after two years.

I see that the Wurzels are back on tour.... They don't look so good these days.

I sometimes worry I exaggerate the collective madness of our media but the people who cheered Brexit, Boris Johnson & Liz Truss's mini-budget are now applauding Kemi Badenoch's speech. 'Parallell universe' doesn't come close. I suppose her not falling over is a win of sorts for them at the moment.
