If you have a Royal Family, you have deference.

If you have a Royal Family, you have a class system.

If you have a RF, you essentially say, "These people are better than everyone else by dint of birth & should maintain enormous influence, wealth and power."

Why would anyone want that at all?

Read and share all over..he nails it

The main argument against rejoining the EU is that it would "embolden Farage".

Bullshit. It would expose Farage.

It would force him to oppose the majority of voters, remind them that his last "Great Crusader" left us poor and powerless, and force him to admit he wants us to remain that way.

Johnson partied as pensioners died alone. Why didn't Johnson get this pressure to resign. Farage appointed a Russian Agent as the leader of Reform UK in Wales. Why doesn't Farage get this pressure to resign The answer is the Tory Press.

Very good from @verybrexitproblems.bsky.social

How long are we going to hear about “legitimate debates and concerns about immigration?” It’s time we told the truth and deal with it. Net migration is low, we need more migrants, we are an ageing population. Highly skilled and low paid jobs are dependent on migrants. We need safe and legal routes.

Walkinshaw: Bondi is going to have to answer questions about her failure to follow the law with respect to the Epstein files. Missed the deadline, continues to hide 2.5 million files, redactions that are not consistent with the law. What's she covering up and who is she covering up for?

Robert Jenrick is lying.

Reform UK have spent, to date, almost £1.5 MILLION with Harding Print Solutions.

They are NOT a local Manchester printer.

They are Reform's go-to print company and have been for a long time.

Future Labour leader?

Reform voters would have a collective embolism.

Damn right. There's still time to transform a wasted govt into a transformational one. It's not as though nobody knows what needs doing, or we're lacking ideas about how.

Labour built the NHS in 3 years, and transformed the nation. They can this too. It just takes will.

Great video. The homes are thoughtful, attractive and well designed. Khan is eloquent and considerate. Much more like this please.

The time for change is now: end fox hunting Hunting was supposed to be banned over 20 years ago, but the hunts have carried on chasing and killing wild animals with dogs like the law never changed. This government was elected on a promise to fi...

If Reform ever wins power in Westminster, it will be because of Labour’s cowardice | George Monbiot Starmer could improve our unfair electoral system to stop the hard right, but he won’t. All the party has left are threats about ‘splitting the vote’, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

In this week's column I seek to explain Keir Starmer's flat refusal to change our electoral system, even though its gross unfairness could put Reform UK in power on <30% of the vote. The reasons, I believe, are deeply cynical and disturbing. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Is Mandelson's real sin that he gave confidential information to Epstein? Or that he got caught doing what so many do? Why do Ministers sell access to business people for huge 'donations'?

The people of Minneapolis have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
The first time a city's population has ever been nominated.

Oh.

Another day , another caring person murdered #minneapolis #poetry #fury #love

ICE uses extrajudicial violence and intimidation for political ends. It's unconstrained by the law, unaccountable to the public. Its crimes are endorsed at the highest levels. What does this tell us? That it's the force of paramilitary thugs all fascist movements & governments use. It is Trump’s SS.

Lies, lies, and damn lies.

Reform with a majority of MPs on less than 30% of the vote! You may hope that tactical voting etc will stop it happening but are we really prepared to take the risk? Wouldn’t you prefer seats to match votes? It’s time for electoral reform #PR

Funny how Robert Jenrick, Reform’s latest signing, says “Britain is in decline” ,considering he helped run it as a Tory minister under May, Johnson,Truss &Sunak.
At this point, Reform looks less like a fresh start and more like a reunion tour for the people who caused the decline in the first place.

Phoenix Nights: 25 years since Peter Kay’s record-breaking TV comedy like no other The eccentric, sharp-eyed sitcom was so loved that it was once the fastest-selling DVD ever. A quarter of a century on from its Channel 4 debut, why has it fallen so far off the radar?

Farage, who had previously said mass deportations were a "political impossibility", said his party had now come up with "a credible plan, so that we can deport hundreds of thousands of people over the five years of a Reform government". During the news conference, Farage asked Reform UK chair Zia Yusuf whether it was realistic to deport 500,000-600,000 people within the lifetime of the first Parliament under a Reform UK government, to which he replied "totally, yeah".

A sobering thought: were Nigel Farage to become Prime Minister then the terrifying scenes from Minneapolis would become terrifying scenes here.

DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.”

Make this go viral.

Labour MP Louise Haigh.

I am pleased to announce that I have commandeered my neighbor's home. This home will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, to ensure it is used to benefit my neighbor and me! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The government is announcing a raft of animal welfare measures that include a ban on trail hunting, claiming they're just a smokescreen that masks the hunting of real animals.

Chris Packam talks to Good Morning Britain 👏

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

The tide really seems to be changing on Brexit. The government is finally admitting the immense damage it has done to us. But is still only taking baby steps to deal with it. So it’s time, this summer, to get millions of pro Europeans back on the streets to say we demand faster substantial action! 🇪🇺
