YouGov latest poll. A reminder that over the past year Reform's polling is usually overestimating the final vote in by-elections whereas the Green's polling underestimates it. With everything being so fucking awful you don't need to doomerise about this...enjoy the bar chart, even for a moment.

According to the Institute for Policy Studies, just daily operations for naval and aircraft deployment for the Iran war are costing nearly $60 million a day β€” and this doesn’t include munitions and other costs. The amount is enough to fund Medicaid for 4 million Americans each day.

Trans rights are human rights. This isn't a tough one.

Creating power vacuums across multiple countries over the last two decades created absolute chaos and mayhem resulting in a colossal number of innocent people being killed. We're STILL counting the cost both domestically and internationally for the Iraq misadventure but here we are yet again. Insane

A massively unpopular policy that will cause immense harm to the creative soul of our nation, used to finesse an evil tech that if it works will put millions out of work forever but if it fails will be a massive waste of time, money and energy, a horror powered by burning down our environment.
