Ex expat now taking bites out of big pasties in Cornwall instead of the Big Apple. Pro Europe. Always a citizen never a subject. The one thing I can’t tolerate is intolerance!

James Kennedy - Autopsy YouTube video by James Kennedy & The Underdogs

5 years old and sadly seems more accurate today.

Zero hour contracts
Billionaires pay no tax
The homeless, immigrants
And poor get attacked
Cos the 1% need
Divide & rule
Not unions, homes,
Hospitals & schools
Whilst the Police State creeps
Like the rising seas

'Desperate' Kemi Badenoch accused of 'hypocritical nonsense' over asylum hotels Kemi Badenoch has been accused of spouting 'desperate and hypocritical nonsense' after calling on Tory councils to launch legal challenges over a problem her party caused

In September 2023, when Kemi Badenoch was a Cabinet member, more than 56,000 asylum seekers were being housed in hotels at a cost of over £9million a day. Experts said a "failure of public policy" had seen the asylum backlog spiral as the Tories pursued their futile Rwanda scheme.

Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a rancid bigot.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism

“'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.'

*More of this, please*"

Reform UK in local government: be careful who you vote for Reform UK's local election successes raise questions – and some eyebrows

My latest for Central Bylines.

It's worth noting that I used Central councillors as an example because I write for Central. I could write a similar article for any region of England. I have the receipts courtesy of collaboration with my bestie.

Great night @theatre503.bsky.social. Niall McCarthy’s Derry Boys was nothing short of excellent. Brilliant performances from the cast who executed some slick and snappy direction from Andy McLeod superbly.

From the day Britain left the EU, this reset was inevitable. What a pointless waste of time, money and effort | Simon Jenkins Keir Starmer is not blameless when it comes to Brexit, but he is moving in the right direction. Even the Tories attacking him know that, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

“Hard Brexit was xenophobic, economically illiterate and narrow-minded.

An apology from the Brexit lobby is too much to hope for. Silence might be a relief.

An appalling mistake was made. It awaits correction.”

Yes. Such damage and waste. For nothing.

See, the thing is, Reform don’t believe in the NHS. It’s no secret. They’re very open about it. They want a private health care system paid for by insurance much like the US system. BTW, defeated Mayoral Reform candidate Arron Banks has his sticky little fingers in umpteen insurance companies!

Her candidate statement doesn't include her love of this, unsuprisingly.

Apologies won’t cut it, pardon the pun. This is a blatant case of wilful disregard, ignorance and vandalism. Prosecutions need to be made.

Rees-Mogg, the posh relic who thinks his outdated Catholic doctrine matters more than women’s rights. He’ll happily lecture the public on “morality” while defending policies that cause real harm, just another privileged hypocrite clinging to Victorian values in a modern world. #ukpolitics

Kevin Maguire - Trump is treating UK like Guatemala, it's time to rethink Brexit The Mirror's Associate Editor and politics columnist Kevin Maguire says it's high time Keir Starmer took a second look at reversing Brexit after US President Donald Trump imposed his rogue tariffs

“That quitting the single market and customs union of our country’s largest trading partner inflicts damage ­considerably worse than the US hit should be screamed from the rooftops, not ignored”
