Flu killed more in 1918-19 than died in the entire Great War.
Saves the Chinese cooking up COVID for germ warfare* when they can just wait for the US troops to get the flu.
*They didn't
So all an enemy has to do now is invade the US during flu season. 🤦🏻♂️

Oh no not this again.
As EU has made clear many times:
The date of any members joining EURO is left UP TO EACH MEMBER STATE.
This is both good politics and technically logical.
Fight the SM/rejoin battle now.
The Euro will not be joined till we are back in.
One battle at a time.
It is a really good point: 0 countries have indeed left it and no one wants out. On the contrary member states have sought to join it as early as they can. I would support joining the euro.
20 countries have successfully adopted the Euro currency and currently benefit from it.
0 countries have left it and 0 have campaigns to leave it. The currency enjoys majority support in every country that adopted it.
It has proven its success over and over again! #RejoinEU
Unbelievable bullshit from Mahmood here. 😡😡😡 She's proposing truly cruel, hostile policies against foreigners – equal to the hardest Tory policies or worse – and then she has the gall to play the racism card against those progressives who call her out on it! It's MAGA scale hypocrisy!
Others face charges under the Computer Misuse Act and Criminal Law Act.
It seems Labour investigated then referred it to police, standing down from the election.

Blimey
4 Labour activists, including Joel Bodmer - Labour’s then candidate for Croydon East- have been charged re allegations that a party database was manipulated to help fix a candidate selection.
Bodmer charged with perverting the court of justice in relation to allegedly altering phone records
They never say what these “legitimate concerns are”.
When they open the mouth they say something about public services being overwhelmed.
But then immigrants, unlike locals, are net contributors to the state budget.
The thing is, there are also "legitimate concerns" about her policies pandering to racists. Biden had one job, to stop Trump's second term. He failed. Labour's job is stop a Reform led government. They're doing the opposite.
Is it our politics that is performative? Or the media making a soap out of it.
Ghastly TV programmes, appallingly scripted, full of stereotypes and journeyperson actors going through the motions
The Mandelson affair, obv. I’m dreading the upcoming drama in H of C, as everyone parades faux outrage. The appointment was a complete cock-up. No-one emerges well. It’s possible rules were followed, AND bad decisions taken, AND this is not the end of all days. I dread Badenoch’s posturing most.
British politics is spiraling down the plug hole. Was it Brexit? The factors leading to Brexit? The charlatans entering politics? The foreign money? The shallow media, who love to hype drama? Junk tv? All I know is that the UK no longer looks like a serious country.
Interested in people’s views on how things look today, after Olly Robbins’ testimony, which I couldn’t watch as I’m currently serving as an election officer in Virginia’s special election- been here since 5am😩!
Is the Home Secretary's hypothesis that Yvette Cooper wouldn't be criticised if tabled the same asylum/settlement reforms?!
The personal characteristics of Nigel Farage/Zia Yusuf, Chris Philp/Kemi Badenoch, Shabana Mahmood/Starmer seem v marginal to who supports/opposes their immigration plans!
Useful antidote to the endless rubbish talked about the place. Basically, London excels at excelling in more sectors than anywhere else.

“Peter Mandelson should never have been appointed. This has been a very damaging episode for the government” - Energy Secretary Ed Miliband
Telegraph newspaper editorial on Mandelson's appointment in December 2024 versus editorial today
Well let's see how this strategy of telling "white liberals" to "fuck right off" works out in the local elections

" It’s high time our politicians dispensed the cure by applying for UK membership of the European Union."

Like all true scandals, the more you find out, the more questions you have. Why? Because the initial decision to even consider Mandelson for the job was deeply flawed. So whose idea was it to put Mandelson in Washington? Starmers? McSweeney's? Mandelson's? Glasman's? Trump's?
BREAKING: Pressure came from No10 private office Sir Olly Robbins says in evidence to Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee on Mandelson's appointment
