Louder for the white socialists at the back.

I don't get this.

Did anyone who refused to vote Biden / Harris, or who actively campaigned against Biden / Harris, genuinely think that they were advancing the cause of Palestinians by enabling a Trump presidency?

And if so, are you prepared now, with hindsight, to admit that you were wrong?

The Epstein files name approximately 200 victims.

The number of rapists is not absolutley clear.

So far one woman has been arrested.

Had an email from HR today reminding me that it costs nothing to be nice...

...Thank you for your input Janet. It costs the same nothing to be an acerbic asshole who calls out incompetent clowns who can't do their fucking jobs.

Not everything has a monetary value.

Irish politicians have been too busy taking bribes for construction firms for the past 30 years to have had anything to do with Epstein.

Well the sorrow, the suffering, the glory, the pain
The killing and dying was all done in vain,
For, young Willie McBride, it all happened again,
And again, and again, and again, and again.

Reform byelection candidate refuses to disown claim that people born in UK not necessarily British Matthew Goodwin, who is standing in Gorton and Denton, said UK-born people from minority ethnic backgrounds were not always British

My dad was Irish, I was born in UK so I can stay in Reform’s Matthew Goodwin’s world as he considers me British due to skin colour..

My best mate was born in UK, his dad Indian, as he’s not white he’s “not necessarily British” says Goodwin

If that doesn’t make Goodwin a toxic racist what does❓🤷🏼‍♂️😡

We load it and store it as liquid (liquified natural gas) and then burn it as a gas in the engines.
