Irish men arrested by British police ‘for carrying signs on pizza boxes’ Two young Irish men feel they’re being treated “akin to ISIS” after being arrested for carrying pizza boxes emblazoned with a Palestine Action (PA) and anti-genocide slogan in London.

Britain is a mad world filled with many far-right thugs running amok. Where Tommy Ten Names can get off on a terrorism charge. Yet two Irish lads supporting Palestine Action can get arrested under anti-terrorism laws for holding pizza boxes signs in London.

Why the two‑child benefit cap is a policy fault‑line in the UK’s fight against child poverty Despite decades of the Right claiming that work is the route out of poverty, a significant number of families on low incomes, even those with a parent in work, are trapped in a cycle of hardship.

If reform can rocket through the polls with a politics of despair, then it's time for the green party to do the same thing but with a politics of hope.

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality.
Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

So it now appears the woman Farage and Gill were so close to has a direct link not only to Putin’s “Man in Ukraine” Medvedchuk, but his predecessor as President, Medvedev

These are top Russian agents.

Remember that Farage and Reform basically want to run the UK like Trump runs the US.

The right revs up A slight smugness is detectable in British reactions to the electoral success of Jörg Haider's Freedom party in Austria. What can you expect of a country that largely welcomed the Anschluss and chose ...

Farage's racism was noted when he was barely a nobody

But sure, he's not a racist.

'Farage, who earns his living as a City commodity-broker, is a man who often used words such as "n*gg*r" and "n*g-n*g" in the pub after committee meetings.' (Oct 1999)

If you don’t like being called a racist, maybe don’t make a career of saying things that appeal to racists, don’t create a political party that keeps attracting racist candidates, don’t fawn over racist world leaders, and don’t make a convicted racist the guest of honour at your party conference.

Blustery day, isn't it? Here's the National Grid: Live generation data. Wind and solar are generating 74.2% of our electricity. Gas is generating 13.1%. And yet our household electricity prices are pegged to... the volatile price of gas. Which is the basis on which the right attacks... renewables.

How many FRSs interfere with overseas politics, finance right-wing groups, dismantle US scientific infrastructure, perform Nazi salutes on camera, and use the largest social media platform on earth to promote disinformation on vaccines, COVID, climate change...etc?

Naughty boy? Outright disgrace.

Nigel Farage Wants to Tear Up Indefinite Leave to Remain - and Deport Legal Migrants in Britain Reform UK’s so-called “Boriswave” rhetoric is a fantasy built on cruelty, cooked-up numbers, and Trump-style authoritarianism.

Imagine spending years proving you belong here, paying thousands, following every rule - only for Nigel Farage to threaten to tear up your status.

This is not policy - it’s cruelty, it’s showmanship, and I for one, am sick to the damned back teeth of it.
