Because Israel needs to think this through.

If Israel does not complete its genocide and is actually stopped… there is a colossal case of reparations. Who pays?

Will the West pay for Israel *again*? The populations of US, UK & Germany might not like that idea β€” we might have reparations of our own

Trump is here Vance is coming as well , headlines in English papers to wave at their base and tell them the UK is β€œoverrun” & fuels Farage’s agenda win win for the right wing. Tories have been using hotels for years but suddenly riots . So many rats to smell

The great thing about Scottish insults to Trump is you don't even have to understand them to enjoy them.

Water chiefs’ pay rises to average of Β£1.1m despite ban on bonuses and outrage over pollution Total remuneration at companies in England and Wales – many of them under scrutiny for sewage discharge – was Β£15m in 2024-25

This is ridiculous. Water chiefs’ pay rises to average of Β£1.1m despite ban on bonuses and outrage over pollution

Private care homes are designed to hoover up any money that normal people have made during their lives.

The only people that can swerve this, are the super rich.

Went shopping to the local supermarket here in France yesterday. It sure does make you feel like the poor third country relative. The choice and quality available is amazing but makes me angry at what we get offered in the UK.

What a stupid, ignorant choice Brexit was.

When power to flattery bows?

Pecksniff: Exclusive! We reveal far right plot behind Epping riots In which Mr Pecksniff lays before his readers for their approval certain observations and speculations reflecting on the political life

"If East Anglia Bylines can find the evidence that the protests in Epping and Diss are merely organised right wing thuggery, how is it the rest of the media haven’t done so?"

Why renationalising the UK’s critical national infrastructure is vital Nothing good has come of privatising the Uk’s critical national infrastructure, so there is now a strong case for renationalising

Nothing good has come of privatising the Uk’s Critical National Infrastructure (energy, water, transport, health, comms, etc)…

…so there is now a strong case for renationalising.

Every day, the same story, the same moral pit. The fall of this murderous government can't come soon enough. The only suitable place for Netenyahu is in court for war crimes.

The RefUK party, funded by the fossil fuel industry and in denial of basic climate science, is informing energy firms that β€œit will terminate renewable energy contracts”.

It can’t. A contract is a legally enforceable entity. Even a govt can’t simply ignore contractual obligations. Utter nonsense.

Britain is great at muddling through. But imagine if its leaders knew where they were heading | Timothy Garton Ash Starmer’s successful β€˜reset’ with Europe highlights an underlying incoherence. The only rational long-term strategy is to rejoin the EU, says Guardian columnist Timothy Garton Ash

Brexit: Our β€œdiplomatic triumphs, be they in the "reset" with the EU or the trade deal with Trump, largely consist in the removal of obstacles that didn't even exist before”

Good analysis on the bugger’s muddle that is Brexit and its perma-idiotic aftermath.

Presidents don’t own the country.

It doesn’t belong to them.

It’s ours.

Never forget this basic fact.

It’s ours.

Never normalize dictatorial power grabs.

They’re NOT normal.
