Hereditary peers to lose their seats in the House of Lords Upper chamber accepts final draft of bill, which offers life peerages to some of those who would otherwise be removed

The smallest bit of good news. But this is setting the bar very low.

Just your daily reminder that Orthodox Jews oppose the nation of lsraeI.

So Orthodox Jews are considered anti-semites by most Western governments.

So Germany will silence Jewish voices, because lsraeI is a convenient product to suppress their guilt.

Missing, in-action: What happened to the bill to remove the Hereditary Peers? It is not often we get to indulge in the mystery genre here at the ERS; however, this blog will delve into the curious incident of the missing Hereditary Peers bill. The bill, a straight

Unelected hereditary peers still sit in the House of Lords — despite promises to remove them. We investigate what happened to the bill and why reform can’t be left on the backburner.

I concur. Labour have excelled themselves in how disappointing they have been.

I am hoping for a @plaidcymru.bsky.social win in May.

I’m not sure how long lsraeI can keep it up for. I am sure they have significant leverage over people in the US. But in UK/Europe - I don’t see it lasting. Of course, the UK state will continue to support them long after the public is done with them.

I think we can agree that Dubai always looked shit. I don’t know who these people thought they were fooling.

It’s just an oversized Docklands.

So… I actually found a LinkedIn job posting from a cult: www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/43...

There was even a BBC documentary about them: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightho...

They got the first letters wrong on two words. Apparently they care about Cymru 🤣 Bloody foreigners not learning the language.

We shouldn’t be surprised. But it’s literally never been easier to get this shit right. My only hope is someone purposefully mistranslated it for them.

Well well… @reformuk.bsky.social (I know this is a parody account) are so shit that they spelt the Cymraeg (Welsh) wrong on the front of their manifesto 🤣🤣🤣

Reform see Cymru as England’s car park.

Reform are already laying the groundwork to say the Senedd election was stolen in May.

I don’t think this attack line is really working for them. But hilarious they are already trying it for an election in 6 weeks.

Yeah, this is wrong.

Energy bills could rise by £160 after Iran conflict pushes gas prices higher Household costs could reach £1,800 a year from July as UK market hits three-year high

Remember - it is a political choice that energy bills will increase & it has nothing to do with the war.

Tories & Labour refuse to reform the energy market. So even if you use renewable energy you pay the cost of the most expensive form: imported oil & gas.

Reeves and Starmer would rather the royals got more cash than our public services. It's us vs the elites. #AbolishTheMonarchy

Meta can’t even oversee its own trash platform. Why should we listen to them?

They only want to limit everyone else’s AI. It’s so obvious.

Kuwait 🇰🇼 accidentally shot down three US fighter jets.

I think that encapsulates the moment.

The parties on the far-right are all now adopting “Christian values”. Everyone involved knows it’s a smokescreen. But it’s a massive mistake to think they can just copy America and be successful. I think it’s worrying, but also good news.

What a win for @greenparty.org.uk

Ministers to consider removing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor from line of succession Move would follow any police investigation after former prince questioned on suspicion of misconduct in public office

There is a problem here, and that is that Prince Andrew was supposedly chosen by god to be in the Royal Family.

Surely Parliament is not questioning God’s judgement?

Everyone is now saying, “nobody is above the law”. Well, good luck ever arresting the king 🤣

This is the new omni-shambles #ukpolitics

Wouldn’t surprise me

It’s the difference between knowing yous shit and knowing you’s shit.

Jeffrey Epstein said that’s enough.

I know that that’s not enough now.

Not sure these are the correct Idlewild lyrics.

Can the British police really investigate Prince Andrew?

He has been chosen by God to be in line to the throne as the King of England. And the King is legally above the law.

The police cannot even enter Royal grounds without permission. So I expect the #Epstein case will go cold for them.

Calls for King Charles to formally apologise for slavery after research shows crown’s role Book The Crown’s Silence details how crown profited from and protected trade in enslaved African people for centuries

The King is not your friend.

“It is believed that by 1807 the British crown was the largest buyer of enslaved people.”
