The Jenrick/Farage fallout will be fun. Hard to pick a side, mind. Like being offered a choice between a hair sandwich & a toenail-topped panini.

Mehdi Pays Tribute To His Late Father YouTube video by Zeteo

My tribute to my dad, who passed away last month in the UK.

He was a proud Indian immigrant *and* a proud British citizen.

His life story is one long rebuttal to the nativists, bigots and xenophobes.

What does this mean?

Doreen Lawrence, the mother of Stephen Lawrence, a black teenager who was murdered in 1993, stands in front of an oil painting of her that proudly hangs in the National Portrait Gallery.

A mum. A fighter. A symbol of justice.

I saw the same!

Today, Trump claimed not to know who Peter Mandleson is. An obvious & egregious lie but one which highlights why the regime is so keen to silence anyone telling the truth. On the current trajectory, he will soon be able to claim that he's never heard of Melania without any pushback at all.

This is a shameful press conference, a rambling lying Trump running down his predecessor, egged on by a clutch of craven so- called journalists from both sides of the Atlantic

Yesterday, the largest far-right protest in UK history marched through London, led by racist Tommy Robinson.

Today, we say: They don’t speak for us — and they won’t have the last word.

This Wednesday we come together against Trump and for a better future. Do everything to be there.

WHY CAN'T SOCIAL MEDIA JUST BE THIS STUFF ALL THE TIME smdp

An Asian Sikh woman has been raped in broad daylight by racists who said she doesn’t belong here. Racist attacks on a daily basis. When will our leaders say something? We need leadership and we need it now. And when will those who spew hate be punished not rewarded? Britain is breaking apart.

Nigel Farage uses private company to pay less tax on GB News earnings Exclusive: Reform leader’s use of personal services firm is a practice criticised across the political spectrum

Since this is apparently a resigning matter, I’ll just leave this here…

Don’t follow RFK Jr on anti-vaccine path, doctors urge Nigel Farage Aseem Malhotra, who criticised mRNA vaccines developed to fight Covid, will address Reform UK’s party conference — to the alarm of the medical profession

I’d like to see the BBC @lbc.co.uk @skynewsrss.bsky.social @itvnews.bsky.social perhaps hounded this man as they have done Angela Rayner. But of course they won’t because he’s a man and she’s a woman, he’s a right wing fascist and she’s left wing.

Just wait ‘til you go to Somerset; there’s a few just in Wells!

The only reason Putin doesn’t want Ukraine joining NATO is so he can invade it again. Are you getting it yet?

BAGA!!!!

Glad it's Ange, not Keir, hosting the Lionesses tomorrow. Strong chance she'll go on the lash with them and join in a bus-top karaoke.

The racists will never win.
The haters, the misogynists, the homophobes.

THIS IS ENGLAND. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Their plan of action for today: Team set to leave their hotel in Switzerland later this morning. They will fly back to the UK at lunchtime and are due to land on home soil early afternoon. It's no rest for the champions as they are straight on to number 10 for a special reception. The event at Downing Street will hosted by Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and sports minister Stephanie Peacock.

Poor Keir has to spend his day convincing Trump to let aid into Gaza while Angela Rayner does shots with Lucy Bronze in Downing Street

Last time I checked, no striking resident doctor had ever ripped the NHS off for £200m of unusable PPE

Well it’s a bit tight - we still need 66 more signatures by 8:45am on Saturday..surely we can do that?! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

So Fanta Fuhrer says you can have undocumented immigrants working for you if you assume responsibility for them. He’s bringing back slavery.

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

Come on folks, the #parkypetition is in danger of falling behind the run rate - we need c650 signatures a day if we’re to hit our 100k target by September 10 and today we’ve only done about 500. Let’s have a big push to get above 46,000 tonight

Domestic violence can affect victims’ brain health for life, study suggests Most survivors of physical abuse by partners reported blows to the head, linked to brain injury and poor mental health for decades Women who are victims of domestic violence are at a higher risk of traumatic brain injury and mental health conditions for many years after the abuse has ended, a study has found. Almost one in three women around the world experience domestic violence, and researchers say the impact on mental health – such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) – can last for decades. In the UK, call the national domestic abuse helpline on 0808 2000 247, or visit Women’s Aid. In Australia, the national family violence counselling service is on 1800 737 732. In the US, the domestic violence hotline is 1-800-799-SAFE (7233). Other international helplines may be found via www.befrienders.org Continue reading...

Honestly my description won't do it justice, it's two of the most surprised looking lions you'll ever see

sometimes when I'm sad I go on my photos from seven years ago from a holiday to Portugal when I saw two stuffed lions who look like Neil and Christine Hamilton

“That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists—and that they both individually wield such massive power—is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.” Robert Reich
