It’s amusing that the right are following the narrative that has worked in the US, drain the swamp, destroy the establishment. Although the current UK structures, civil service etc were put in place to protect the monarchy & aristocracy, so ultimately they are putting themselves in the cross-hairs.

And yet you hide your identity, but you aren’t a fake??

I started nursing in 87, we had funding for beds, social care, education, accommodation etc. The public voted to take that away, to reduce taxes on the rich. 1 year can’t fix that, it took 12 years last time, not 12 months. It’s not just about wages & it takes time, please, when reporting do better!

Today in 1789 a mob stormed the Bastille fortress in Paris. The spectre of that moment has loomed over incompetent authoritarians presiding over unequal and unjust societies ever since.

YouGov Blue chart showing how we rate world leaders, countries and events: Putin and Trump lowest polling international figures and highest for Zelensky, NATO and Germany Top 6 most unpopular: Putin Trump China Israel The US Brexit

Chart showing Changing landscape YouGov's first MRP has Reform winning the most seats if a general election were held today

Very hard to reconcile these two YouGov charts.
On the one hand, we really dislike Putin, Trump and Brexit.
On the other, we may well vote Putin-apologist-Trump-adoring-Brexit-cultists into government.

Come on UK. Sort your shit out.

How society would fall apart, if the very wealthy didn’t have tax havens to hide their ill gotten gains.

How would you pay for it? Another fallout of Thatcherism, I believe that the social care workers should be paid the equivalent of NHS staff, but that would cost billions, but instead they get paid minimum wage & their private sector employers make billions instead 🤷‍♂️

We want to make sure Rachel Reeves MP sees some important % and ££s:
🇬🇧 80% of UK millionaires support a 2% tax on wealth over £10m
🇬🇧 81% think it’s patriotic to pay their fair share
We’re proud to pay and here to stay

Douglas Alexander in the Commons earlier : "Let me be clear... the imports of hormone treated beef or chlorinated chicken, will remain illegal.."

Now those on here who should no better, stop perpetuating far right and far left propaganda.

It’s the same, NHS England has a Regional structure currently in place.

He’s added nothing, it was already there.

Why can’t Keir Starmer see the benefits that are obvious to almost everyone, even those the other side of the Atlantic 🤷‍♂️

I saw him play Aneurin Bevan & he was absolutely brilliant.

Just fascinating & so true youtu.be/pUKaB4P5Qns

Psst..'merica, listen up! We also had one that tanked the economy but we binned her!

When I said - 'Fuck you, Vice-president Couchfucker' I didn't even mention Vance. I meant some other random Vice-President Couchfucker.

Me: I can’t believe UK voters chose to torch their economy with Brexit. That can never be topped.

Brexit reset is fuelling business disappointment in Labour, warns Alastair Campbell Tony Blair’s former spin doctor cited The Independent’s front page as told Labour that the facts were the way to take on Brexiteers like Boris Johnson and Reform UK’s Nigel Farage

Criticism of Labour from @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social very unusual. But this needs saying.
Labour should stop being so defensive about spelling out the facts, the scale of the disaster that the Brexit deal inflicted on us…’ www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Ignore the doomsayers.
