I’m from the UK and took an interest in politics after the 2016 referendum. Brexit has not worked and now there is Trump again. I’m a 75 year old Granny who likes gardening and history especially the Tudors. I’m enjoying Blue Sky.

Hungary holds elections in 2 months. And the US Secretary of State is in Hungary campaigning for Viktor Orban. And as you can see, Russian state media loves it.

Scotland’s Story

Nigel Farage says 1 million people in Britain don’t speak English. The Census says otherwise.

The number of people across these islands who do not speak English is around 190,000.

Yet again, Farage is caught lying.

These are the oligarchs who seek to rule every aspect of our lives, and the current US regime is doing everything possible to facilitate that because it is owned by them.

Matt Goodwin, Zack Polanski and Lucifer: the fight for Gorton and Denton The Green candidate – a local plumber – is convinced she can win. But does a Labour-Green fight risk splitting the vote on the left, and handing the seat to Reform?

The Leave campaign's divisive rhetoric around immigration had real-life consequences.

The UK was declared measles free in 2017.

Vaccine programs completely eliminated it.

Since then, pro sickness conspiracy theorists and anti science idiots have enabled its return.

I like the government pivot to reminding voters that Farage is an avowed enemy of NATO & Europe & an ardent admirer of Vladimir Putin, who routinely orders the murders of critics & opponents. It is politically effective & morally essential.

London ‘not safe’, claims Reform UK’s Nadhim Zahawi after he’s 'forced to cross street from man who hadn't slept' | LBC Mr Zahawi suggested that if he were Home Secretary, he'd be offering to send the army in.

WTF…

Reform UK MP Nadhim Zahawi has slammed London as unsafe, and told LBC how he had to cross into the road away from a man who looked like he hadn't slept while walking in his "upmarket" neighbourhood.

Five European nations have determined that Russia poisoned Alexei Navalny.

This was a cowardly act from a frightened leader.

Russia has long acted as a terrorist state, relying on terrorist methods.

Poisoning political opponents.
Silencing journalists.
Invading peaceful neighbors.
