Excellent reminder.

And it makes me wonder, has anyone checked to see if the blankets handed out at ICE detention centres are riddled with deadly viruses?

If not, it’s probably only because they are not providing blankets.

I'm sick of ridiculously rich people.
I'm sick of being told we have to make them richer.
I'm sick of them not having to pay tax like everyone else.
I'm sick of them pretending to be essential.

When actually they are worse than useless.

An editorial cartoon divided into two panels. On the left, a couple watching tv news; the wife asks out loud "Dick Cheney's been compared to Darth Vader. I wonder how he feels about that..." On the right stands Darth Vader, dark lord of the Sith. "I'm hurt" he replies.

Samir Zitouni who works for LNER was the first person to try and stop the attack in Huntingdon.

He is a hero spread his name far and wide, judge people on their actions not their names or immigration status.

I'm aghast & I'm also late to this party - so can someone please explain what possible reason there could be to vote down this amendment & how does this, apparently perfectly reasonable, planning requirement become a party political issue. Another reason not to vote Labour, love from Caerphilly

Finland knows that Socialism works.

They house all the homeless people, and have the least in the world.

They closed all paid Education in 1976 and now have the best education system in the world.

They are the happiest country in the world.

Be like Finland.

Minority representation on TV causes outrage

There has been widespread support for prominent Reform MP
Sarah Pochin after she complained about the over-representation of minorities on television.
Said one angry viewer, "She's right. Every time you turn on the telly there's another Reform MP being interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg."
She added, "I respect their way of life and their strange customs, but Reform MPs comprise only 0.7 percent of the House of Commons. Yet Nigel Farage is on Question Time more than Fiona Bruce."
"I'm not prejudiced. Some of my best friends are swivel-eyed loons, but enough is enough.
There are too many people with angry red faces on television.”

🎢 The world is riddled with maggots;
the maggots are getting fat

They're making a tasty meal of the bosses & bureaucrats

They're taking over the boardrooms; they're fat & full of pride

& they all came out of the woodwork on the day the Nazi died 🎢

Free Speech is being able to demonise and be as racist as you like to minorities.

But you can't say any of that to people in power, or support people opposing tyranny.

Every time I will see anyone reference or talk about Dubai I will now think of people who were murdered for being black. That shit stained palace of tax evasion should forever be assosciated with the stench of mass graves.

No. They only punched them in the movies. Pretty sure that big 'ole fists were not on the list of weapons issued to the anti-fascist forces that the US sent to Europe and the Pacific theatre of operations . . .
