Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, β€œThere’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ½

To be clear @peterwalker99.bsky.social no one cheers an awful policy announcement that makes anyone in our community feel less welcome or at risk of deportation.

What is true is that the Tory party is dead and that the Lib Dems will always stand up for our incredible immigrant communities.

It breaks my mind that two British political parties have seen scenes like this and decided to try and replicate it in Britain. Thuggary, lawlessness, state brutality. Farage and Badenoch decided they liked the look of it.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

It’s precisely because Brexiters howl about betraying fish and talk shit about sovereignty/immigration *and our media amplifies their nonsense*, that govt is trapped by fear, unable to freely negotiate in our best interests in case Farage/Daily Mail have a meltdown.
Beyond time for the goddam truth.

Awful article. South Africa has major issues but to ignore the fall of the USA into dictatorship and Oligarchy while crediting Trump with shining a light on SA issues is sloppy to say the least.

Trump Recession Timeline:

1. This will be a Golden Age on Day 1! Prices will come down and economy will boom!

2. These policies won’t cause a recession. We know what we’re doing.

3. Ok, it will cause short-term pain but will be good in long term.

4. This is Biden’s recession!

Dear broadcasters, stop giving Farage airtime. He’s got his own TV show. Leave him to it. Traitorous weasel.

Trump’s siege of science: how the first 30 days unfolded and what’s next The breakneck pace and devastating impact of the administration’s policy changes has shocked researchers.

It matters that scientists speak out against what is being done to US science.

Staying silent is neither "objective" nor "staying out of politics".

Silence now *is* political - it supports the status quo, says "nothing to worry about".

We need to sound the alarm.

Starmer is well aware of what needs to be done. Here is what he said when voting for Johnson's UK-EU deal.

Services "a gaping hole", "lack of ambition", "Imperfect", "thin", "a basis to build on".

Share, to show the PM that you back him going further and faster to improve our deal with the EU. ~AA

Research claims EU deal will fuel growth β€” and Labour is listening A report says Britain can mend some of the economic damage of Brexit without crossing the red lines set by Keir Starmer

The UK can secure significant growth of 1.7% - 2.2% through a policy of deep alignment with the EU on goods and services, while staying within Starmer's red lines.
This is the approach to push for: peak ambition within the constraints Labour has set.
