Zia Yusuf complaining about councils being underfunded

While sitting next to Danny Kruger who since 2019 was part of the government that underfunded the councils Yusuf is complaining about

ICE has erected a gate to keep protesters out. They are blocking a public street, despite the Broadview Fire Department ordering ICE to tear it down.

Join us at 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM. Tell Broadview to tear this fence down.

Nigel Farage is the biggest charlatan in British political history.

And here's what his constitutents in Clacton really think:

Jennifer Saunders, "If Trump comes here, we can go out on the streets and how how much we hate him"

"But really we've got to get on and make sure it doesn't happen here"

"Make sure that great talking sewage pipe Farage doesn't get in"

"He does look like.. A pipe.. A great big sewage pipe of sh*t"

This move by Kennedy is just awful

Ah the happy tappy paws are so cute!

FFS.

Thank you for posting. Very much needed to see this today.

Left: Nigel Farage complains about a 'population explosion' saying foreign born workers have lowered wages by 3%

Right: UCL research showed the opposite

And Migration Advisory Committee shows "immigration has had a minimal effect on average wages across the UK"

A good starting point for reporters, headline writers, and readers is to not take for granted the government's initial claims. Because they are probably not true.

Matthew Stadlen calls out Newsnight for giving Douglas Murray an 8 minute window to spew divisive hatred

Newsnight brush it off and move on 🤷‍♂️

A reminder that Donold feeds off of fear.
He wants everyone to be afraid at all times.
He wants you to stop discussing Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
He wants you to stop discussing SignalGate.
So he sows fear and panic.

Next time, let’s mention the humanities. Hell, let’s give them equal airtime.

We are the folks who explain what fascism is, why it’s bad, and what the alternatives are.

The acting head of the Internal Revenue Service resigned after the Treasury Department and Homeland Security reached an agreement to share tax data from some immigrants living in the country without legal status.

This thread is worth your time

Something to think about

Donold is now classifying protests at Tesla dealerships as ‘domestic terrorism.’

Protest at a Tesla dealership and you get arrested as a terrorist.

But attack the Capitol and you get a pardon.

With his permission, I'm sharing Dean Treanor's response to Ed Martin's letter:

America, just in case you thought Friday went well here’s how the London Times saw it …..

F.D.A. Cancels Meeting of Vaccine Experts Scheduled to Advise on Flu Shots The cancellation plays into fears among scientists who worry that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will use his position as health secretary to sow doubts about vaccines.

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year.

“'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'"

Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder.

Important to take the week as a whole. Statement from Dominic Grieve:
