How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

GREAT NEWS!
A special task force of elderly bald men, smelling of chives and armed with small penises, has arrived to liberate Dubai from the Iranian onslaught!

Put Trump’s criticism of Starmer and other democratic leaders against his consistent syrupy praise for authoritarian, brutal leaders.
Starmer is in good company. Just remind yourself how Trump praises authoritarian antidemocratic leaders in this thread. It’s an eye opener 🧡 1/

End of milking contract? Police / CPS want to review their evidence and charged suspect? Ambur’s mum or dad traced as speeding driver of flash wheels? George realises he’s deleted THAT recording? #TheArchers

A spot of amnesia about Erik and Kirsty?
She told Hellen she was having sexy dreams about Rex.
She told someone else ?Hellen the Erik encounters were two shags for fun. Nothing more.

The Trump Effect is already reducing the amount of cash our govt has to spend on our national priorities.

The right wing press, the Tories & Reform, are all cheering on Trump's war crimes, even while it is costing their own country Β£billions.

They are traitors.

β€˜A very dangerous person’: alarm as Pete Hegseth revels in carnage of Iran war Critics say brash, bombastic Fox News host out of his depth to guide US military through murky new Middle East conflict

"Hegseth’s puerile displays on TV are aimed at sating Trump’s desire for a warmonger worthy of the manosphere"

Farage misses out on Trump meeting as their relationship cools British populist politician aimed to reinforce his view about the UK’s Chagos Islands deal in conversation with US president

'...people close to Farage said there was no longer regular contact between the men and that Reform had few direct links into the US administration.'

Poor #NigelFarage thought he was getting a seat at the top table, but was instead placed on a table for one near the toilets.
