Nice descriptor for 14 years of Tory.

This is satire, isn't it.
You got me!

A glimpse of UK democracy
The Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Act 2025 empowers the state to 24/7 snoop on bank accounts of benefit recipients.
The poor, old, sick have no financial privacy.
The same does not apply to enablers of tax abuse schemes.
We are all equal, aren't we?
Adult social care privatised since the 1980s. Local councils spend 70% of budget on it.
83% of social care controlled by private equity, 20%-40% profit margin.
Will Govt end profiteering, ensure only not-for-profit entities, including local councils, provide care.
Watch the Minister's reply.
'We're building a national care service...'
How will that be structured?
What percentage will be controlled by private equity - so poor value for taxpayers' money?
1/ The President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Organization for Security and Co‑operation in Europe (OSCE PA) answered journalists’ questions after his meetings in Georgia.
Let's see. . .can anyone think of a person who gave plenty of warning he was a "general reputational risk" to the US?
Friend of Epstein?
Anyone?
Politicians waxing lyrical about their particular favourite in shades of faux patriotism 🎶.
This is an argument for not having people featured on bank notes.
I agree with you a lot, Ed, but not on this. Bring on the wildlife.
A forest that took centuries to build, destroyed in days. For profit. This isn't development. It's the liquidation of our planet's natural capital. #Ecocide #Deforestation

It's no longer OK for you to sit in the house of Lords because your dad did.
But if your mate put you there?
That's fine.
Neither of these really feel like democracy to me.
Hounslow has become one of the first councils in the country, and the first borough in West London, to introduce a #RightToGrow policy. Backed by Dowton's Jim Carter, our new policy allows residents to steward unloved public land and grow food and flowers.
Data centres burn huge amounts of power but provide very few jobs. Are we covering the countryside and using up power connections to enable bitcoins to be mined?

I heard the audio. He said it.
Lord. What have y'all done.
“You just suggested that Iran got its hands on a U.S. Tomahawk and BOMBED ITS OWN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL on the first day of the war.
You are the only person in your government saying this.
WHY ARE YOU THE ONLY PERSON SAYING THIS?”
PEDOrump’s answer:
“Because I just don’t know enough about it.” 😲🙄🤬
📌 ICYMI — Nigel Farage’s Humiliating Iran U-Turn Should Be a Lesson for Keir Starmer
By sticking to the correct and popular position on Donald Trump's Iran war, the Prime Minister has now forced his political opponents into an embarrassing reversal, argues Adam Bienkov
What didn't you say again Nige? 'Never once did I say we'd cut council tax'. Yes you did.

😆

Or have a temper tantrum!
They've realised Ofcom looks the other way?
In the words of Jon Sopel: "What the actual fuck?"
GB News has suggested migration in the UK is a "genocide" of white Brits.
Is conspiracy theory the only thing that can get through its guests' "dull, dead synapses"?
