Unfortunately for us, he got up again.
230,000 avoidable deaths.
" Let the bodies pile high"
If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.
Reform’s Richard Tice avoided nearly £600,000 in tax
The deputy leader’s property company paid nothing in corporation tax on multimillion-pound profits for most of 2018-21
The USA's erratic President & his acolytes have a stated aim of re-shaping European politics to be more MAGA. Gifting US billionaire Tech bros the capability to build a detailed picture of the British population, & infer state secrets seems to be a very dangerous act.

Privately: Oh yes it is!!!

So for those many millions of us who've been pissed on and told to 'suck it up' for the last ten years and watch the rampant destruction caused by the arrogant, ignorant twats unfold; when do we get our retribution? Blojo still isn't face down in a ditch, Fartage isn't in jail; when is it our turn?
Statement by German Middle East Society’s Committee on Academic Freedom: Concern that Stuttgart is demanding back approved funding for symposium “Critique of Freedom and its Repression in Liberal Democracies” after pressure from German-Israeli Society.

For @thenation.com, I spoke with Dominique de Villepin, France's fmr foreign minister best known for leading opposition to the Iraq War in 2003. He blasted today's illegal war, the timid response from 🇪🇺, and told me those responsible need to be held accountable.

Governing is tough. Farage wishes his party hadn’t bothered with it. Imagine them running the country!
www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Anytime you think Farage has ‘a point’, think again @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social
I could be wrong, but this probably isn't a good sign.
“Farage has said he wishes the party "hadn't bothered" to take minority control of Worcestershire County Council, because of its financial problems”
V much summing up his approach to power.
Grifting and gobshiting - yes please.
Hard work and responsibility - god no.

"The foreign minister of Iran has talked about what happened in Kharg and says the Americans used cruise missiles launched from a neighbouring country.
Abbas Araghchi said the missiles were fired from the United Arab Emirates, near Dubai."

We cannot allow political subservience to Trump and Netanyahu to lead Britain into a dangerous, illegal, expensive war.
It's time for Starmer to show some genuine backbone on the international stage.

The Ministry of Defence refuses to say if Peter Mandelson played a role in awarding military contracts to Palantir while ambassador to the US.

'Alex Karp of Palantir pictured below. Famous quote “Palantir is here to disrupt - on occasion kill people”
Palantir is the most dangerous organisation in the world, run by one of the most dangerous men in the world.
And the UK has given them our data. Who helped broker the deal? Peter Mandelson"
And Mandelson and Epstein's mate Peter Theil who runs Palantir
🎯 #Gallipoli2
And many many questions about #Mandelson & #Palantir yet to be answered open.substack.com/pub/drdavidn...
Starmer, Mcsweeney and Mandelson welcomed Palantir and Tesla into the country ,and AI data centres to ruin water supplies and push up electricity costs. Musk thinks we are going to let him rip us off just like all the other US lobbyists who have asset stripped UK post Brexshit.
The UK has some of the highest electricity rates for households and industries among developed nations because of a high reliance on imported natural gas, market pricing structures, in fact the exact reasons why the pursuit to net zero is not insane.
And don't we know it.
⚡️Wales is rich in electricity, yet we pay the highest bills!
Wales is a net exporter of electricity, with north Wales home to some of the world’s largest offshore wind farms, yet households pay the highest electricity standing charges in the UK!

I just signed a petition to stop the rollout of facial recognition surveillance in the UK.
The Government and shops are scanning us without clear laws in place, using our faces like barcodes.
It feels really invasive. Can you take 30 seconds to sign it too? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...
Please remember this the next time you see a right-wing paper screaming that young peoples’ privacy must be constrained and surveilled.
Its a techno fascist coup. Starmer sold out the UK.

This moment from Feb 2025 may go down as one of the most prescient exchanges in modern diplomatic history. Zelenskyy warned Trump that while the United States may feel protected by an ocean today, a time could come when America would need help in war. Trump scolded him instead.
