I like to think that I’m a Socialist with a deep green hue. Oh yes, I’m also an Atheist who lives in the UK.

Nothing as yet on the BBC News site about the US 'No Kings' rallies today. Hundreds of thousands of people peacefully protesting & not a word from our national broadcaster. ITV is carrying the story. BBC not fit for purpose when it's deliberately covering up momentous events such as these.

Finally came across video of an arrest at a #NoKings event yesterday. 🙄

In order to avoid any more scandals involving the Royal Family, can I suggest we abolish the lot, and save a few quid in the process?

Screenshot of an article headline which reads "Number of children living in temporary housing could 'fill both Wembley Stadium and Twickenham'
More than 172,000 children are now living in temporary housing across England, in what is described as a "humanitarian crisis"

Screenshot of an article headline which reads "Number of children living in temporary housing could 'fill both Wembley Stadium and Twickenham' More than 172,000 children are now living in temporary housing across England, in what is described as a "humanitarian crisis"

Over 170,000 children living in temporary accommodation is a national disgrace. Children need safe, warm, stable homes to thrive - when will Labour grasp the nettle on this?

We need to unfreeze the local housing allowance and seriously invest in social housing, now.

It costs ~$70 to produce a year’s supply of insulin.

Yet, the average annual cost of insulin went from $2,864 in 2012 to $5,705 in 2016 to $18,000 in 2025. A 25,714% markup. That isn’t inflation or supply chain—It’s corporate greed.

Now—California will sell insulin for $11. Make this nationwide!

FarRage wants us to get bored asking who funded his house.

I’m not getting bored I’m getting angrier. Our media are hopeless (not news but worth saying again). FarRage smirks his way through Russian betrayal and dodgy house deals.

He is a Traitor.

Israel Tortured And Sexually Humiliated Greta Thunberg Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):

“This shows that if Israel, with the whole world watching, can treat a well-known, white person with a Swedish passport this way, imagine what they do to Palestinians behind closed doors”

Israel has publicly shamed the Swedish Government… yet they do nothing!

These people have lost the plot. As the response says,

"We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. There is not currently such a rule set out in law."

Controversial UK oil field reveals climate impact if approved The impact from the Rosebank oil field is estimated at nearly 250 million tonnes of planet warming CO2.

Rosebank forced to admit its climate impact would be 50x greater than it initially claimed. Clear evidence that this climate-wrecking oil field must never be developed

Migrants will be required to pass A Level standard of English Migrants will be required to pass tough new English language requirements under a law introduced in Parliament today.

I will bet my bike that close to zero of the British racists that this law is pandering to could pass A-level English.

Today, Mike Johnson will continue to keep the House adjourned for the 71st day out of the last 83, with Republicans refusing to show up to work again to avoid having to vote on the Epstein files or negotiate with Democrats.
