He can f*ck right off. Why should we do anything to support that racist rapist.
Tories support Reform UK in Warwickshire.
Vote Tory get ReTory UK
Same old Tories. Same old corruption and sleaze.

So very apt
Vote Restore - get a Brown Shirt in the post.
3yrs & 10 months (18 mths in reality) for killing a child and seriously harming several others whilst speeding, and then running away from the scene.
He deserves far more than that - minimum of 15 yrs.
#ShabanaMahmood - this needs reviewing.
www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Tories to prop up and provide backing for #ReToryUK Council Leader.
Vote Tory - get ReformUK
Vote ReformUK - get Tories
The two are the same.

Worse still, I thought it said ‘Otto’. And for one moment I thought they were proposing to replace Churchill with a German Chancellor 🤣🤣😂
History is full of self-important leaders who think they are unique in a unique time, only to find they are no different to the failures who came before them. And every time, innocent people die & suffer during this process of discovery.
#Trump
#Iran
Rereading Nye Bevan’s greatest Commons speech
On Suez, 5 Dec 1956
The war where, as he put it, “the reasons change all the time”
Just replace “the canal” with “straits of hormuz” — and weep

And he can therefore expect his enemies to treat US military no better.
I am sure that US military families are delighted to understand that.
Respect.
Teacher 🤣
‘Time and patience’
Why?!
Because #Trump is Putin’s puppet.
It’s not hard to figure that out.
Why is #Trump Putin’s puppet?
Could it be:
- Putin’s got photos/video from his mate Epstein.
- Putin’s got other photos/videos/stained clothing.

The entire corrupt club should be immediately abolished. It should be replaced by local non-political reps elected for a strictly limited period (10yrs?) (no re-election). Previous MPs, political lobbyists or political donors would be barred from seeking election.
Resolving #StudentLoan issue is a minefield.
1) it mustn’t write a blank cheque for unis to rip off students / taxpayers
2) it mustn’t leave taxpayers picking up blank cheque 4 ‘life-time’ students
3) any regime must cover ALL post-18 education - not just unis

#Iran's supreme leader 'likely disfigured', Hegseth says - BBC News
#Hegseth resorting to school playground gossip tactics & propaganda to appeal to his audience.
And….?
WTF can any govt minister do about a market reacting to events?
If you rely on market prices to incentivise suppliers to secure supplies (which UK does) then you must also accept that market prices must be allowed to respond efficiently to events.
www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
#Trump & #Hegseth actions led to the murder of innocent children
When asked about it both of them give zero f*cks.
‘Evil’ MFs doesn’t quite say it
Our company limits:
- all gifts must be declared in writing
- gifts over £100 must be refused
- gifts of uncertain value must be refused.
- gifts from a client / supplier of an active project must be refused
- gifts of alcohol must be refused
So the US has further eased sanctions on Russian oil, now across the board. Should the US now be considered a NATO/EU ally or a Russian ally? No doubt this will be a high agenda item when Emmanuel Macron hosts Volodymyr Zelensky at the Elysee today.
See my post last week on how we got into this position of dependence on US tech companies and how we can start extricating ourselves (with a section on Palantir).

Here is the real reason why #Trump is at war with #Iran - more money for Putin.
“The US has temporarily waived sanctions on Russian oil stranded at sea”

If that is one of your concerns then you might perhaps lobby #Ofgem to get them to reverse the roll out of ‘smart meters’.
Maybe also consider the Proliferation of geo-fencing ‘smart home’ devices. Perhaps Starmer should ban these devises made by such as - Apple, Google, Phillips, Xiaomi etc?
Elec ‘suppliers’ do not ‘control’ strategically sensitive elec network infrastructure or data systems.
They will however be assessed for NIS regs.
I don’t like #Tesla , but to say that Starmer is responsible for granting elec licences is a stretch too far
#NottsForest - we have a Slovian referee who had no idea what the rules of football are.
I fully expect him to shortly give a foul for the goalkeeper being hit by the ball.
This type of headline annoys me #BBC. Please tell me why “Mother” is even remotely relevant to the story?
www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @vicderbyshire.bsky.social
why does the #BBCNews refer to Brits living in Dubai as ‘ExPats’ but foreign people living in the UK as immigrants?
Please explain why you feel it is necessary to use different terms to describe the same thing - is it a racial thing?
#Trump is building up to dropping the #bomb.
And if you think that that is too outrageous / stupid etc even for Trump, I suggest you go back & read history on Trump stepping over boundaries that others thought he never would
So, @crockett.house.gov etc - what do you want before Nuclear war starts?
