Excellent summary of why we are where we are...

“The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands...may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” —James Madison

We live in a country where the two most dynamic, charismatic, eloquent politicians of this century have the first names Barack and Zohran. This is what bothers the white supremacists so much.

100%

No self respecting businessman would consider using a third party provider again if they had previously ripped them off and cost them huge sums of money. I don't understand why government should.

I can't get my head round people saying they're scared Farage will be the next PM.

Look at the shit in the UK these days & 90% of it - from Brexit to the vile immigration policies of this "Labour" govt - is thanks largely to Farage's influence.

He's been in control for 10 yrs already, wake up...

Interesting that right on cue of course, the BBC has totally lost interest in this side of the asylum debate, pivoting now to fraudulent asylum seekers who were already resident before their claim.

As we say in Cymru, that is mugnificent...

* and that is assuming he was telling the truth of course...

Another term one could use instead of "I wasn't told" is "I didn't ask"

Privatisation is and always was a scam aimed at transferring wealth from the state to the rich. It was a crime to hand state wealth - including natural monopolies and strategic industries that are too important to fail - to the private sector on the cheap.

When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 stamp duty on her flat, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should immediately resign if she had “any moral decency”.

Now we learn he personally made £91,000 in excess payments by failing to pay the tax his company legally owed

All the worst cunts in the world - from journalism to politics, the Kermlin to the White House - are suffering tonight.

The EU is sitting on €6.4 *billion* in grants for Hungary

With a likely constitutional majority enabling Magyar to govern with a freehand, I suspect that money will flow quickly

Ukraine's €90bn loan will also be approved

Hungary will now move into the European mainstream

Yet even now, these morons walk among us...

"18 per cent of Leave voters say that Trump has done a good job in handling the Iran war"

UK to give £380m grant to Tata battery factory in Somerset Investment in plant due to supply batteries to Jaguar Land Rover expected to boost economic growth and secure jobs

Corporate Welfare.

UK Govt to give £380m grant to Tata battery factory in Somerset.

The Govt isn't taking an equity stake in return, won't receive any dividends. It isn't a loan and isn't repayable.

Political parties demonize human recipients of welfare but hand free money to corporations.

So now, he becomes concerned about breaking promises?

And the hill he is going to die on is the policy that most of the population now actually want reversed to some extent?

Sadly, all true

In recent years it has frequently been framed as Israeli control, but is still commonly rejected as antisemitism. See Al-Jazeera's "The Lobby" as a case in point - it specifically refers to the "Israel Lobby" but critics conflate it as "really meaning Jews". It is a common smear.

"Israel’s greatest victory to date may be the reality distortion that it’s managed to create around its war on Lebanon, even as it’s killed 1,500 people and laid claim to its land."

It's literally like the heyday of UKIP repeating itself and we haven't even had the election yet!

You have to wonder equally if MCC did their proper due diligence before wasting money paying MattGPT??

Great pics btw 👍

The stone gave it away I think - Bassaleg?

The limitations on violence established after World War II were not brought by pacifists or peaceniks but by literal old soldiers. They knew. They had seen.

If an Iranian soldier was stuck in the mountains in the US, the UK, Israel, or Germany, & every American or British or Israeli or German boy or man from 16 to 60 walking within 3km of him was killed by drones, would any politician or media call it anything other than murder?

Maybe I'm wrong, but the Hungarian election looks to me like the equivalent of getting to choose between Yaxley-Lennon and Jenrick.

To bastardise a movie line (badly) - "In 6 months they'll want to steal Magyar's nose"

'Benefits changes mean my son could lose out on £200 a month' Charities say families are facing financial worries as changes to disability benefits come into effect.

Absolutely.

Also, poor young disabled people as well...
