Trying to let go the political angst, but not succeeding -circumstances don't allow for it! Into travel, wildlife, photography, reading, cats AND dogs, and spending too much time online! No porn, no MAGA / RW idiots, no crypto, no DMs - automatic block

What has he spent it all on? Golfing?

What is with the up close and personal poses? Canโ€™t professional people just stand next to each other normally, rather than wrap themselves around each other?

No, they work their jobs (often more than one), and still need SNAP because none of the jobs pay a living wage.

Isnโ€™t it better for rates to be negotiated en masse, same price for everybody?

Can you imagine if Starmer attacked Fox News what Trumpโ€™s reaction would be?

How many more โ€œturkeysโ€ is Trump going to pardon this year. Isnโ€™t he already at his quota?

Oh FFS just stop. Itโ€™s not an election year. Why give him so much space? If only you could spare the same effort for Lib Dems and Greens if you wanted alternative perspectives. Why always with the racist misogynist?

Again, an elected official unilaterally changes party ignoring the wishes of their electorate. It doesnโ€™t matter which parties are involved, a by-election should be triggered to give constituents their say in their representation.

That alone would be a good reason to avoid that store. I hate being accosted by store workers when Iโ€™m shopping. If I want help, Iโ€™ll ask for it. Just donโ€™t shove it down my throat. Politeness and approachability is different from forced interaction.

She sounds like Trump. โ€œI want this more than anybodyโ€. Unlikely. And then the Butโ€ฆ

50 years of mortgage payments = 50 years of working. What are they changing retirement age to again?

Does he know heโ€™s doing it, or is he just signing anything they put in front of him without reading it?

I suppose it is, really. It clearly illustrates what we could expect from a Reform Government. Incompetence, abandoned promises (within 6 months), and loss of any majority allowing a call for lack of confidence and fresh elections. If it werenโ€™t for the damage Reform would do in the interimโ€ฆ

Strategically scattered can be good, if you need extra back support.

Laurence Fox is never again going to be able to threaten to sue anybody for calling him, an increasingly overt racist, racist

Since the May elections Reform UK Ltd has lost (resigned, fired, left the party) 36 councillors at least.
At an average cost of ยฃ25,000 per by-election that means they have cost the country ยฃ900,000
What a waste of money, how many schoolmeals would that buy for hungry children?

No real surprise here. But what will the UK Government actually DO about this? X algorithms are right-wing biased. X pushes more right-wing content to users than left-wing content.

So this is the โ€œwasteโ€ Reform wants get rid of, Care Homes and Day centres? If there had been any fat left to trim after 15 years of austerity, it would have been done long ago by more experienced councillors. Reform are just pretending to govern and finding that they havenโ€™t got a clue.

Itโ€™s not confusing if you EXPECT Reform to lie. Just believe the exact opposite of what they say.

Was that in their manifesto, or did that not make their "aspiration" list?

It is not a surprise, tbh. Much as it breaks manifesto pledges, a responsible Government has to take such actions if other reasonable options have been exhausted. All citizens should understand that.
