James O'Brien, "The scenes on Saturday were striking, the numbers very high, but a fraction of the turnout of the please don't leave the EU marches"

"No matter that the problems were literally caused by Brexit"

A UK politician with actual common sense & integrity! Wonders will never cease...

The private family life of twice divorced Nigel Farage, who had children with both of his ex wives.... and now lives with his girlfriend.... is none of my business... just as the private family lives of everyone else are none of his.

Poland’s prime minister 👇🏽

I agree with #EdDavey:

“The facts don’t lie. The BBC is fuelling Reform’s rise by plastering Farage across our screens without providing the proper scrutiny the public deserves. We need the BBC to live up to its promise of accurate and impartial coverage that represents the whole of the UK...”

Russian losses per 12/09/25 reported by the Ukrainian General Staff

+890 men
+1 tank
+2 AFVs
+40 artillery
+2 MLRS
+273 UAVs

In the UK, there are about 22 firearm homicides per year.

In the USA there's an average of 50 every single day.

Labour have been in power over 11 months. They also have a gigantic majority.

Emergency legislation can be passed in days. They've had nearly a year.

There is no reason for them to be perpetuating any Tory idiocies... unless they want to.

So "but that's a Tory policy" doesn't wash as an excuse.

No, Britain has not escaped lightly from Trump's tariffs And it is not a very convincing vindication of Brexit.

No, Britain did not get off lightly in the Trump tariffs. And no, it is not much of a vindication of Brexit. Or at the least seeing it is an economic dividend is to conveniently look away from the more substantial economic costs.
