The Cruel Fantasies of Well-Fed People The astonishing story of how a movement’s quest for rural simplicity drifted into a formula for mass death

In any discussion of food and farming, unless your solution can be scaled to feed 8 billion people, you shouldn't be taken seriously. Unfortunately, cottagecore fantasies that would feed only the richest consumers, leaving billions to starve, are all too common.

Put the blame where it lies....on FARAGE'S BREXIT

The Times: Reform vow to fight 'crazy Miliband over solar farm Miliband has approved plans for Britain's biggest solar farm, prompting Reform UK to say it would fight to reverse the decision. The Tillbridge Solar project, in Lin-colnshire, would cover an area equivalent to about 2,000 football pitches. Farage's party said the scheme would destroy valuable agricultural land, but Labour said it was needed to meet green energy targets and reduce dependency on energy from abroad. Tillbridge Solar is the tenth large solar project Miliband has approved since taking office. Half of them are in Lin-colnshire, prompting opposition from local Reform and Conservative MPs. Tillbridge Solar aims to generate electricity for 300,000 homes and the scheme would cover about 1,400 hectares of mainly agricultural land Michael Shanks, the energy minister, said: "Solar is one of the cheapest and quickest power sources we can build. It is crucial in our mission to make Britain a clean energy superpower, giving us energy security, good jobs and growth across the country." A report by the Planning Inspectorate said that the project would lead to the loss of about 1,200 hectares of farm-land, including 11l hectares of the highest grade land, and acknowledged the cumulative impact of other solar arrays in Lincolnshire. However, it concluded that this would not be nationally "significant" , with solar taking over less than 1% of UK farmland. It added that the biodiversity would benefit from the end of intensive farming on the land and that crop planting "could be restored should it be needed in the future" for food security. In a blunt warning to companies behind the schemes, Richard Tice, Reform UK's deputy leader and the MP for nearby Boston & Skegness, said: "We will do all we can to stop investors and developers; nothing is off the table."

Reform: a constant whining drag on progress, prosperity and sanity.

Aww, poor man-baby. They got a clear picture of his vagina neck and his bald head under the comb-over. Kudo's to the photographer and Time for shooting it and using. His fragile ego can't handle being mocked, so you know what to do 😉

This is exhausting, I was happy mocking just the one...

Typical Jeffries... leave action for some time in the future!
The danger is NOW!!! DO SOMETHING FFS!

Absolutely!

Yes and call what it is: The Farage / Johnson Brexit disaster

Alex Jones suffers Supreme Court blow in Sandy Hook shooting appeal Alex Jones had said the Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax.

The scumbag didn't get what he wanted, he got what he deserved. From the article:

The Supreme Court has rejected InfoWars founder Alex Jones's appeal against a $1.4 billion defamation judgment brought by families of Sandy Hook school elementary shooting victims after he called the massacre a hoax.

She should be saying: "...Farage's Brexit..." just to get the point home that our financial malaise is largely his, Johnson and the rest of the Brexit brigade's fault, and that he cant be trusted with our votes

This isn’t a peace plan. It’s a ceasefire. Why is the media calling it a peace plan?

Be sure of this: many of the horrors the west allowed in Gaza will come closer to home | Owen Jones History shows the crimes of empire were later mirrored on European soil. Dehumanisation and militarised terror both seem normalised now, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

Why don't people learn? Why can't they see?

Reform creates loads of drama about immigration, creating a false problem.

It then positions itself as the only solution to this imaginary problem so that people will vote for them.

It's one of the oldest tricks in the book damn it!

Let them Leave!
And just before they do.....
SEIZE THEIR ASSETS!!!

"Our capital city has been overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals." - Donald Trump, bloodthirsty criminal whose violent gang has overtaken our capital city

But the radioactive shrimp turned into Stephen Miller

"I didn't vote for this." - people who absolutely voted for this but thought this would only hurt people they hate

You dont need to re-heat him....
JUST GET A WHIFF OF THAT DIAPER 💩

Face it, MAGA, if your president's name weren't all over the Epstein files, they would have been released unredacted, printed, and bound in $500 special editions signed by Trump, recorded as an audio book by Mel Gibson, and tattooed on Laura Loomer's ass.

Dont know why Kash insists on wearing those joke shop fake eyeballs

Girl: "Grandpa, what did you do during Donald Trump's second presidential term?"

Grandpa: "Well, sweetie, I wore a Charlie Kirk button, shared anti-trans memes on social media, and reported my neighbor's babysitter to ICE."

Girl: *pulls plug*

Or are they seeking Divine Intervention to get rid of him?

Instead of a moment of silence for Charlie Kirk, I will be observing a lifetime of speaking out against bigotry and fascism.

So then, that would make Earth - Rapture; and Heaven would be Hell!

Forced to improvise due to a failed United Nations teleprompter, Donald Trump opened his drool-spattered lie hole and sent Doritos-scented approximations of human speech flying like shrapnel from a shit grenade.
