Nigel Farage Says Minimum Wage Should Be Cut for Young People The Reform leader said cutting the minimum wage for young people would boost business, as he attacked plans to raise taxes on the wealthy

YOUNG PEOPLE. LISTEN UP.

Today Nigel Farage said the government should cut the minimum wage for young people

...to โ€œraise aspirationโ€ and โ€œboost business"

It's ยฃ10ph FFS!

Lower your pay so youโ€™ll dream bigger

DO YOU SEE IT NOW?

Literally Israelis defend rape.

Literally.

You canโ€™t make this shit up.

This is how sick their society has become.

And instead of justice for the victims of rape they go after the person who released the recording because Israelis defend #RAPE.

"Modern right-wing rhetoric is essentially the same as Hitler's 1925 rhetoric".

Alonso Gurmendi writes about fascist takeover of the global right and how it's basically just a rebranding of Hitler's 'superior race' argument.

Kemi Badenoch is absolutely right about this.

At the time she hacked Harriet Harman's emails it was an offence carrying a prison sentence of up to five years

Intellectually dishonest from The Times' Lord Finkelstein. If you look only at a progressive tax and ignore how much more the richest earn of course you 'prove' they "bear the heaviest burden". But if you look at all taxes as a percentage of income the poorest bear a similar burden to the richest.

Bet365 CEO Denise Coates paid herself ยฃ277,000,000 this year, and ยฃ410,000,000 in 2020.

This was more than 20,000x the Minimum Wage that she paid most of her workers.

The betting industry needs to be taxed, heavily.

On Saturday, a woman of Punjabi heritage was raped in a racist attack in Walsall.

Last month, a Sikh woman was raped in a racist attack in Oldbury.

These horrifying attacks show how racism and misogyny feed each other โ€” fuelled by the rise of fascism and hate.

I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this.
But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.

He is Donald Trump, well his bootlicker anyway.

From a Daily Express journalist calling for my deportation to a Reform MP saying it โ€œdrives her mad to see adverts full of black and Asian peopleโ€, the mask has truly slipped.

This poisonous politics fuels far-right violence against minorities and migrants. We all must unite against it.

Best to give Labour a wide berth. Labour voter since 1974, Iโ€™ve washed my of hands of the lot of them. Theyโ€™ve sold out completely.

I donโ€™t give a f*ck about Labour any more. Been a Labour voter since 1974 through a range of quality leadership, but Starmer smeared and suspended many people I knew and I cancelled my membership rather than be suspended at some time in the future.
Labour will NEVER get me back.

This morning, MAGA is trying to rewrite historyโ€”claiming Reagan was anti-immigrant and pro-protectionism.

But the truth is, Reagan stood for almost everything Trump opposes.

Itโ€™d be a real shame if this went viral.

But how much have you seen about the Reform candidateโ€™s relationship with Nathan Gill?? Anything? Nothing?

Sky News continuing to present an entirely misleading picture about what happened in Amsterdam

A reminder that last year a Sky report correctly identified Maccabi 'fans' attacking locals before it was withdrawn & re-released with the violence now ascribed to "hooded men" instead

I used to read her tweets when she was a cabinet minister. It was obvious she knew nothing about her brief. To say she is as thick as sh*t is an insult to sh*t
