They aren’t thinking about OAP’s who can’t afford to eat but people like themselves who are 50-60’s and get their military pension on top of their £50k plus job and don’t like paying high tax bracket on it

Two retired men I know can't spend their pensions fast enough as their pots keep going up in value. But they'll still moan about Rachel Reeves and potential tax rises/new taxes on them while pondering voting Reform next time.

More O'Hare flights delayed as US Transportation Secretary warns of 'mass chaos' if shutdown continues "You will see mass flight delays. You'll see mass cancelations, and you may see us close certain parts of the airspace because we just cannot manage it because we don't have the air traffic controller...

GOP owns this. Enough of the chaos of this tyrannical regime.

Meanwhile, NTSB and FAA didn’t bother to answer/return press phone calls re: catastrophic UPS plane crash.

Blood spilled in Sudan can be seen from space. Nobody can feign ignorance about what’s going on | Nesrine Malik The massacres carried out by the RSF in El Fasher, Darfur, with the support of its UAE sponsors, will only stop when the international community acts, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

Keep talking about the genocide in Sudan. Keep putting pressure on the government to sanction the UAE and to bring an end to this horrifying situation.

With respect what in gods gravy is a “non-militarised European security framework” and how would it stop 300 shahed drones bombing a city

This is an excellent point

Reassess the sequencing. Overseas far right groups aren’t being ‘drawn’ to these events at CityWest… they are drawing them up, designing these events.

Winning, Karlyn, winning

Many such cases in fact (there's a big drop in the frequency of marriages where a woman makes 50% or more of income... because those couples become super likely to get divorced)

'Fluoride Disconnects One from God': Inside the Weekly Call With RFK Jr.'s MAHA Hype Squad A growing weekly call gives insight into RFK Jr.'s biggest allies, showcasing how a fringe movement now holds legitimate power.

One of my favorite aspects of authoritarian Christianity (modern and older) is how easily god can be foiled, and how we have to stop him from being tricked.

The holy creator who spoke the infinite cosmos into being gets stumped by a little dental care.

OH she'll be EVERY bit as damaging as you fear, and then some

I'm really hope she isn't as damaging to the country as I fear she will be.

Support our campaign to oppose MAGA extremists

HuffPost says that by late March, Trump's golf outings had already cost taxpayers approximately $26M , for travel, security, logistics & secret service detail.

Candidate Trump claimed that if re-elected, he wouldn't have time to golf.

Liar in Chief!

The leader of the only political party on the right that opposes the far right has quit citing threats. She does not specificy but most political violence in Sweden comes from the far right and they hate what they think of as traitors even more than they hate the left

There are some unlawful misrepresentations- if you pretended to be policeman, engaged in a fraud for monetary gain, etc - but falsehood in and of itself such as the fantastical description of Everton trophies and the flat earth are not caught

Logically, FSU (whose declared position is we should adopt US first amendment boundaries) would uphold all racist and antisemitic speech that doesn't include a call for imminent violence.

They do want to carve out holocaust denial, but their appeal to EHRC decisions on it makes little sense in UK

It's really telling that mainstream journalists are doing stuff about the *possibility* of the ADF or the Heritage Foundation starting to influence UK politics, when the reality is that they have been here for years, spending huge quantities of cash and succeeding in areas like trans rights.

like I've noticed that locally, even modestly priced early to mid 00s apartments easily have service charges of 900-1000 up. But several, both 90s and 00s, are charging well over 2k per apartment. I'd expect that for a 3 bed big flat, but not for a small 1 bed apartment

Podcast: Concerns raised around ageing apartments Campaign groups are raising serious concerns about how owners' management companies run apartment and housing complexes.

i think the questions raised in this probably are a lot of the pressures that feed into high rents, given that fewer than a quarter of apartments are owner occupied

A lot of these hard right types throw out a lot of wild ideas. But they've been on about the ECHR for quite some time and I could walk see them throw NI under the bus in the form of incinerating the GFA

its explosive, to say the least. Think 1968 on steroids

UK agrees deal over Chagos Islands despite court action British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced that he had signed a contentious deal to return the remote Chagos Islands to Mauritius after a judge overturned a last-minute legal challenge.

I mean here's a fairly good place to start

if this is the example, NI would be even more explosive

Rees-Mogg is and was a hell of a lot more pragmatic and less of an ideologue than Farage. Plus it was not a shared view in the halls of power, where territorial control is deeply symbolic. Just look at how the handling of the Chagos Archipelago sovereignty dispute is being discussed.

that still does not mean he will facilitate a transition from Northern Ireland to a United Ireland. NI is the ultimate symbol of English supremacy over the British Isles as a whole. It is wishful thinking to fantasize that it would be cast off. If anything, they'll grab it ever more tightly.
