sick to the back teeth of fascism. Very sweary but that's what the state of the current world climate has reduced me to. Save our NHS. Fuck Farage, Trump & Bibi. Hoping more than anything in my lifetime for peace in the world.

Dog kicked by Memphis Safe Task Force member on the mend as US Marshals defend action The dogโ€™s owner told Action News 5 that the deputy U.S. marshal seen punting her pup had no reason to do so, but officials with the U.S. Marshals Service say otherwise.

Small dog suffers broken rib after being repeatedly kicked by U.S. Marshals deputy. "Action News 5 obtained two videos that show the marshals service employee kicking Yoshi not once, but twice." www.actionnews5.com/2026/02/07/d...

History repeating itself?

UKIP under Nigel Farage controlled Thanet Council and nearly bankrupt it.

Reform UK under Nigel Farage controls Worcestershire Council and itโ€™s on the verge of bankruptcy.

Never trust Reform UK. Imagine a country run by them. We'd be bankrupt with Trussite policies.

The Guardian Reform faces police investigation over 'concerned neighbour' byelection letters 13 hours ago The Telegraph Reform reports Labour to police over 'misleading' video 1 week ago

Both stories about Reform UK Party Ltdโ€™s Gorton & Denton campaign are true โ€” they, laughably, reported Labour to the police over a โ€˜misleadingโ€™ video, and now they face a police investigation over breaking by-election law with deliberately misleading campaign material.

A Secret Oil Cartel Might Have Killed Our Clean-Energy Future In a landmark antitrust case, Michigan alleges oil companies colluded to โ€œcapture and killโ€ clean-energy and electric-vehicle efforts.

Big Oil "purchased solar and EV patents to ensure others couldnโ€™t use them, solicited control of renewable markets and then abandoned them, and funded powerful institutions to promote false solutions, all while using trade groups to downplay the harms of fossil fuels, according to the complaint." ๐Ÿ˜

Heads are going to explode ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that โ€œimmigrants are bleeding us dryโ€ noise? Absolute bullshit.

Nigel Farage was mentioned 43 times in the Epstein files.

But you donโ€™t see any of the โ€˜politicalโ€™ journalists mention this do you?

Instead itโ€™s the usual diatribes against Starmer.

These people are an embarrassment

649 pro-Reform UK comments in 2025 on social media found that 65 were from real people, while the rest were fake bot accounts used to make their support appear higher than it actually is.

Liam made people look. Now donโ€™t look away.

We still have children in ICE custody eating bad food, drinking questionable water, living in filthy conditions, and carrying a lifetime of trauma they shouldnโ€™t have to survive.

The NHS best healthcare in world just 13 years ago.

The only reason it 'isn't possible' is because people block it from happening.

The US is close to being lost so let us not forget Farage will stop at nothing to import these exact same Trumpist policies here in the UK. A vote for Reform is a vote for fascism, tyranny and blood on our streets.

Anti-immigrant bigots create a false premise asking, "What about all the citizens killed by immigrants?", but research consistently shows immigrants are less violent and commit fewer crimes than citizens. The real question is "What about all the immigrants killed by U.S. citizens?" And there's lots.

Reminding you all that Nigel Farage has proudly claimed he is going to be setting up a British version of ICE here in the UK to terrorise us just like American ICE if he ever becomes PM. He has openly said he wants to deport legal migrants.

Brits, please remember with everything that's happening in the US right now, that Nigel Farage wants the UK to create an ICE-style organisation for exactly the same stated purpose.
