There were 115 prisoners mistakenly released in the final year of the last Conservative Government alone.

Interesting that it only becomes a major national scandal the second these releases can be blamed on a Labour government

Nigel Farage's Chosen Reform Mayoral Candidate Suggested Black Britons Canโ€™t Be English The party's candidate for Mayor of Doncaster claimed being English requires Anglo-Saxon 'lineage' and attacked 'third world cultures' in now-deleted posts

Nigel Farage's favoured Mayoral candidate for Doncaster said black people cannot be English.

Reform councillor Alexander Jones claimed being English requires Anglo-Saxon โ€˜lineageโ€™.

The messages were deleted after questions were raised by Byline Times

The American far-right say that Sadiq Khan has brought Sharia Law to London....

Samir Zitouni who works for LNER was the first person to try and stop the attack in Huntingdon.

He is a hero spread his name far and wide, judge people on their actions not their names or immigration status.

Reform UK, vote Nigel Farage if you think

The Minimum Wage is too high.
The richest 4% earning ยฃ100,000+ pay too much tax.
The State Pension needs to be means tested.
We should get rid of the NHS.
The retirement age is too low.

If you hate yourself, vote Farage.

โ€˜You canโ€™t eat electricityโ€™: how rural solar farms became the latest battlefront in Britainโ€™s culture war Reform UK is exploiting opposition to solar panels โ€“ but most farmers are more worried about climate change.

92%: the percentage of funding for Nigel Farage's far-right political party Reform UK that comes from fossil fuel interests.

Across the world, anyone blaming immigrants, etc, it's all just a smokescreen to allow the rich to keep on getting richer by killing our planet.

Anyone who voted for this or advocated for it is unworthy of your vote. Or your clicks.

They were either lying or wrong.

Our Granddad is 100 and fought in D-day
and he thinks Farage is the right man to
sort Britain out. He says he reminds him
of one of the commanders he fought
alongside with distinction. In the next
few weeks he's going to auction off his
medals and donate all the money to
Reform. Anyone know how much an Iron Cross is worth?

Trump hates the American people. That's the only explanation, other than the fact that he might be a spineless, dementia-ridden puppet.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Surely you realise that the "Building Nuclear Reactors" degree course was combined with the "What Defines a Woman" course back in 2016?

Until we train more people, both professions will suffer ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

We have built a society in which people of different skin tones, religious backgrounds & cultures get along, share power, work alongside each other, procreate with each other, recognise the each otherโ€™s humanity and democratic rights. It is a STUNNING ACHIEVEMENT OF WORLD HISTORIC PROPORTIONS.

Billionaires are going to take all your rights, all your money and all your possessions away, so they can be trillionaires.

Don't be distracted by the billionaires shouting "Hey look at that immigrant over there."

Excellent new episode of PBS Terra Weathered has just been released.

This episode discusses hurricane rapid intensification and hurricane strength and how these relate to climate change.

The effects of AMOC strength fluctuations and aerosols / sulphur emissions are also covered.

Worth watching:

Imagine if British newspapers put only half the energy they spent obsessing over Starmerโ€™s curry in Durham into covering the fact that a former top figure in UKIP, the Brexit Party and Reform UK has just pleaded guilty to eight counts of pro-Russian bribery.
