Mark Carney has delivered one of the most important speeches of our era. There is a better future waiting for Britain if we dare to follow his example.

The ‘uniparty’ is surely Reform and the Tories now
Note that these are the usually Atlanticist pro-American centre right parties. They have given up appeasing Trump.

It’s revolutionising how media works - structurally… putting the news mix and content generation into everyone’s hands. ✊
Thankfully Britain does not have a Bible Belt, but Reform are doing the bidding of their US paymasters anyway- get ready to see more stunts like Sarah Pochin hijacking à church this week- or Tommy Robinson’s Carol service (not even satire!)

this is insane
How do you get to see that? Need to be verified?

🏴 A new report setting out how Scotland received almost £8 billion of European funding, helping create some 235,000 new jobs, serves as a “stark reminder” of what the country has “lost” because of Brexit.
⬇️ Lost opportunities and greater costs.

Did the bombshell BBC memo misquote the misquote? on.ft.com/485zOMr Spoiler alert: it did. Panorama edited Trump to make him look bad. But Prescott edited Trump to make the BBC look bad.
Screenshot of a Truth Social post by user @P78 that says: 'HANG THEM GEORGE WASHINGTON WOULD !!' The post was than "Retruthed" by President Donald J. Trump.
This is how democracies fail. A sitting President is boosting calls for the arrest and execution of political opponents for urging the military to uphold the Constitution. Every alarm in the country should be going off.
then again, the price graph for tiny, tiny violins is absolutely mental
Trump over on Truth Social is spending this morning calling for the arrest, expulsion and "DEATH" by execution of Democratic Congress members

⭕️ Councils are asset stripping the Counties they run👇🏼👇🏼
Leicestershire CC (Reform & Tory) wants to sell Beaumanor Hall, Grade II listed mansion for £500K
Lancashire CC plans to close care homes & day centres saving £4.6 million..
Ironically a Councillor owns a private care company with his Mrs❗️🤨
📉 Based on the UK’s pre-referendum investment level of about £230 billion a year, the cumulative loss of investment by this year could be between £275 billion and £400 billion.

Reform UK Ltd gets 92% of its funding from climate change deniers and fossil fuel corporate interests, provoking negative reactions | Mark Cunliffe

For the rest of the world, the single case of Mike Johnson refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva after her special election win, because Johnson knows her vote will tip the scales for the release of the Epstein files, is enough evidence by itself that the U.S. political system is broken and lawless.
Absolutely amazing: they've got so much solar in Australia that they need more people to use more of it, so the gov't has instructed energy retailers to offer *at least three hours of free power* during the middle of the day.
Meanwhile fossil-addled US struggles with an energy-price crisis ...
Until 1997, under the leadership of Dr Alan Sked, UKIP's membership form included a clause stressing that racists were not allowed to join. Soon after Sked's departure, however, the clause mysteriously disappeared. The new leaders, Michael Holmes and Nigel Farage - who are now both MEPs - also set out to "combine our protest" with other anti-Euro campaigners. In his UKIP election leaflet this year, Holmes paid tribute to "citizens' patriotic protest groups" such as Save Our Sterling - presumably unaware that Save Our Sterling was run by the BNP.
Farage's racism was noted when he was a nobody.
But sure, he's not a racist.
'Farage, who earns his living as a City commodity-broker, is a man who often used words such as "n*gg*r" and "n*g-n*g" in the pub after committee meetings.' (Oct 1999)

Sarkozy (ex President of France) just got 5 years in prison for corruption and Le Pen will be panicking tonight ! Bolsonaro got a 27 yr jail term last week… the US could learn a thing or two here

This is war for me. Farage is attacking my family. My husband has settled status, his comments are disgusting
I will campaign against Reform for being xenophobic against EU nationals and their families. Reform needs political annihilation!!!
