Barely two weeks into Trump's war with Iran, gas prices are surging โ€” up an average 65 cents nationally.

Americans keep footing the bill for this failed president's incompetence.

โ€˜Trump is a malignant narcissistโ€™ | Dr John Gartner YouTube video by The Trump Report

@mrjamesob.bsky.social
The malignant narcissist enjoyed seeing suffering in Minnesota and blowing up fishing boats in the Caribbean, but it wasn't enough.
He revelled in the 'violence' of the assault on Venezuela, but it wasn't enough.
So now he is bombing Iran.

Remembering the Angels of Dunblane and their teacher on the 30th anniversary of that tragic day.
Thoughts, love and prayers to their families, friends and everybody affected.

30 years ago today, Thomas Hamilton went into a school in Dunblane and shot dead a teacher and 18 children, the worst crime in Scottish living history. Handguns are now banned in the U.K. . The leader of Reform PLC, Nigel Farage thinks the ban is โ€œ ridiculous โ€œ . That is the measure of the man.

Farage thinks we should loosen gun laws. Good luck with that.

Non UK people. After Dunblane, if the Conservative government had not tightened gun control, they would have been forced from office. We have one school shooting a decade, max. Police don't routinely carry firearms.

Trump Removes Sanctions on Russia to Help Oil Flow Amid Iran Conflict

The collapse of Scottish food exports is no accident.
By decimating the market not only does it remove 'Scottish' as a quality brand name and therefore a product premium.
It makes these businesses unviable and therefore open to buyout at market crash prices.

It is extremely difficult to construct a practical case against this position. Net Zero is now as much about patriotism as it is about climate change.

Nigel Farage breaks with his Welsh leader over insurance system for the NHS Reform UKโ€™s Welsh leader Dan Thomas told POLITICO he would rule out moving to an insurance-based system after Nigel Farage said it would be a โ€œnational decision ahead of a general electโ€ฆ

What a spectacle of incoherence.

Reformโ€™s Welsh leader promises not to go down the NHS/insurance routeโ€ฆwhile Farage keeps that option open for the rest of us. Probably because heโ€™s already committed to selling us out.

Corruption and betrayal nailed on with this lot.

Shame can be a destructive emotion, but this is what a culture without shame looks like.

And it's consistently rewarded and indulged.

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.

Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.

They are good for society and the economy.
