🇺🇦 Re-upping this one in the name of decency and democracy.

Slava Ukraini!

Blumenthal: "My stomach turned when I heard the president of the United States characterize Vladimir Putin as his fabulously good friend. Vladimir Putin is a war criminal."

The human race has got something very very wrong. These 2 belong in jail.

In case you missed it ...

This is not why we elected Labour. So why does the government continue to try to out-Reform Reform? Besides being morally obnoxious, surely they realise this is a losing strategy? There will always be people more racist than the ones they pander to.

Starmer urged to stand up to EU over tough holiday checks on Brits Keir Starmer was challenged to 'stand up' for Britain and fight tough new checks for UK citizens travelling to the EU.

The folks who wanted to leave the EU and end free movement - include Farage himself - chose this outcome and are fully responsible for it. And the Mail article repeats the "travel insurance" and "return ticket" falsehoods from the Times article.

A wee reminder that the Mail backed Brexit-which is the cause of this problem.

The Mail is owned by a non-dom and is based in Bermuda to avoid paying taxes in the UK.

Convicted fraudster George Cottrell, Nigel Farage campaign man, has launched a polling company, but we can’t find any staff, any media coverage, or much polling data. So is it just a vehicle for dark money?

YouTube video by Peter Stefanovic Imagine the shock when he finds out Brexit is a primary factor in sky rocketing small boat crossings

With UK news shows reporting more than 50,000 small boat migrants have crossed English Channel since Labour came to power perhaps it would be a good time to remind Nigel Farage & others that Brexit has been a primary factor in the sky rocketing number of small boat crossings

47% of people think immigration is primarily illegal. There were 4% irregular arrivals in March

New YouGov polling. A monumental failure of our political class to educate, a monumental failure of our media to report fairly, for a generation

Birds of a feather…..
This mother fuc*er is part of a huge flock.

Farage promises to build more jails by Our Reform Correspondent Nick Money BRITAIN'S next prime minister, Nigel Farage, has vowed to expand the prison service to deal with the increasing lawlessness in Broken Britain. Farage said it was imperative that we have more prisons to accommodate law-breakers such as Reform MPs. Said Farage, "No, let me finish! We are looking at hundreds more Reform MPs after the next election, and with our vetting systems we are guaranteed to have a vast number of criminal members of Parliament, who have stolen public money or pushed their girlfriends down the stairs." When asked how much all this would cost, the Reform leader explained in great detail that he didn't have a clue and couldn't care less. Farage also promised to send the worst offenders to El Salvador, following a successful pilot programme sending Reform supporters to live in Dubai.

When so much of the media rolls out the comfy red carpet for Farage, Private Eye trips him up and milkshakes him.
Be more Private Eye.

Caroline Lucas, "Hopefully people won't forget what Nigel Farage has done with Brexit"

"He is extraordinary in how he manages to be the Houdini of politics, extricating himself from all these disasters he is causing in the country"

"Farage is exploiting grievances"

But are Reform really “making the political weather” as you, so uncritically say, Chris Mason, or are you making it for them by hyperventilating over each grubby little Tory-Reform-reshuffle, without *ever* properly scrutinising the howling failures of these deeply unpleasant, grifting clowns?

1. Pioneering neighbourhood health teams to begin in most deprived areas 2. £100m fine for 7 house builders accused of price rigging/sharing info 3. Wage growth including inflation in May: • UK: 2.3% • Netherlands:1.8%• Germany: 1.6% • France: 1.1% 4. Services sector rebounding. Activity rose at fastest rate in 10 months (S&P) 5. Business confidence at 9-year high The Lloyds Bank Business Barometer rose to 51%, the highest since Nov 2015. 6. Britain is the #1 most attractive place to invest : Deloitte survey. 7. Five major road schemes in the north and Midlands are confirmed 8. To deliver 700,000 additional urgent dental appointments every year 9. UK bosses to be banned from using NDAs to cover up misconduct at work 10. Employment Rights Bill to give parents the legal right to take time off work to grieve if they experience pregnancy loss 11. The number of people feeling financially secure has risen this quarter by 3%

A busy few days for Labour, ten more things in action from them including changes to Employment Rights Bill for couples that miscarry and ban on NDAs for sexual misconduct of staff/visitors. Protecting workers every step of the way. Wage growth up too!!

I chuckled when it was reported that Jake Berry said he had left the Conservatives because "the party had lost its principles”.
I read that he had also said of Farage: “Because you know you can trust him, I can trust him."
Oh dear.

Tell me why haven’t the press picked up on the rebranded Sure Starts?

Why haven’t they commented on Reform’s MP who removed the whip from himself?

Why aren’t they talking about the highest business confidence in 9 years?

Why are they still on about Reeves tears?

They’re poisonous!

Daniel Hannan celebrates his chronicle of Brexit idiocy foretold | John Crace Back in 2016, Dan prophesied about what the post-EU sunlit uplands would be like on this very day – no spoiler alert needed

An absolute scorcher from @johnjcrace. Do read!

“Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, But to be Dan was very heaven! O wondrous day. One of which dreams are made. Especially if you’ve been taking large quantities of hallucinogenics.”

Mic drop.

2% tax on assets worth over £10m would raise £24bn/year.

Starmer's welfare cuts will only save £5bn/year.

Instead of making the poorest and most vulnerable pay for years of austerity, it's time to introduce a wealth tax.

Surely SURELY in the Lords they should be able to corner a debate where this is Hannan “forecast” is read out to his face?

Every painful paragraph.

A masterclass in mockery and contempt for the unforgivably smug Hannan and the ideological idiocy of his Brexit vision….

“Whatever happened to punching the air at a self-inflicted 4% hit to GDP? It’s almost as if the leavers are ashamed of what they have done.”

Council turns on Reform UK MP over asylum seeker claims The local council and Police and Crime Commissioner have issued damning statements

A Reform MP lying about crime, ‘othering’ people again with no evidence.

Dan Price, Cheshire Police & Crime Commissioner, also claims he has never been approached by Ms Pochin. He said: "I simply don’t recognise the picture that Sarah Pochin tries to paint of Runcorn – it’s not based on reality.

The £34bn cost of Reform UK’s “Britannia card” proposal Reform UK’s Britannia Card would let wealthy foreigners pay £250,000 to avoid UK tax — but would likely cost £34bn and reduce skilled migration.

Zia Yusuf has published a response to our report on the Reform UK "Britannia card" proposal. It's disappointing: heavy on insults, light on substance, and revealing that Mr Yusuf cites an OBR paper he hasn't read. buff.ly/GUbqAei
