Our Granddad is 100 and fought in D-day
and he thinks Farage is the right man to
sort Britain out. He says he reminds him
of one of the commanders he fought
alongside with distinction. In the next
few weeks he's going to auction off his
medals and donate all the money to
Reform. Anyone know how much an Iron Cross is worth?

Absolute perfection. #Reform

More likely pay into a Trump owned charity. Rinse and repeat. USA, you've been conned. A heist right in front of your own eyes.

60,000 Americans die each year due to lack of access to healthcare.

Wait a minute.....so it is definitely not safe to have Maccabi Tel Aviv fans to come and visit your football ground in the middle of the one of the biggest multicultural cities in England. I think we can put this argument to bed now. *eye rolls*

The reason they're coming after this place is because they can't control the people on it and it drives them nuts.

I also have a 15 years old daughter completely terrified of going to the doctors. Never mind DWP Work coaches.

Work coaches do not belong in GP surgeries.

Being pro-Palestinian is not being anti-Jewish.

Just as being pro-Jewish is not being anti-Palestinian.

Irresponsible language and framing from the Home Secretary.

It is perfectly right that people both protest the Gaza genocide and mourn the Manchester attack.

I see misogny is still rife among sub-editors. She got a flipping name and what her husband got anything to do with. Flipping heck.
