These are concentration camps, not โ€œlarge-scale holding centers.โ€

Good grief Bezos. In the transaction for your soul, could you not negotiate to keep just a shred of yours?

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Embarrassment for Farage as he's blanked by Trump on Mar-a-Lago visit There was embarrassment for Nigel Farage as his idol Donald Trump gave him the cold shoulder after he'd flown over to Mar-a-Lago.

Isn't it sad when a fan doesn't get to meet their idol

Britain still remains in Europe geographically. It's time we start acting like it, and repair our relationship with the continent.

Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:

Nigel Farage said today, Iโ€™m not interested in public opinion. Just think about that for a while.

What we see here is Donald Trump, acting as he always does, as a global chaos generator.

The further we stand away from that, the better off we will be.

Well said @georgemonbiot.bsky.social ๐Ÿ‘

Onwards and upwards with the Green Party. 215,000 members canโ€™t be wrong. Letโ€™s top Reform in membership and voting intention. Letโ€™s consign Farage to history as the millionaire racist fraud he has always been and replace Labour as the party of choice for socialists.

The Green Party has been consistent on our position.

We support the Iranian people in their struggle against the brutal Regime.

And we oppose illegal bombing from the USA and Israel that has already killed countless civilians and risks an all out Regional war.

Every incoming US President has to be briefed about the British believing in the "special relationship", because no one in the US has ever heard of it.
