Voting Reform is the equivalent of voting twice for Trump.
It is an act of pure ignorance, or racism, or both.
And, as we all know, it leads nowhere good.

Please god UK. Do not let that happen. Learn from our mistakes. Learn from America’s mistakes.
Just get your shit together.

$30m an hour: big oil reaping huge war windfall from consumers, extra $234bn by end of 2026

It is Trump's way of rewarding his backers. Corporations always profit from war whilst household/Govt budgets are decimated.

Govts must levy windfall taxes.

The 'news' of a deal between Labour and Reform is no revelation. Bella has already covered these plans - as have the MSM, which now pretends to be shocked and startled. The Unionist plot is completely exposed. bellacaledonia.org.uk/2026/04/15/s...

The money men love war.

The money they control ultimately comes from all of us.

Yet who do they vote for?

Who gets their political donations, using the money we give to their banks, their pension funds, and their capital investments?

In the end, capitalism kills.

Emergency Prices: How Private Equity Captured the Ambulance Market Emergency service costs have been going up for years, frustrating city officials. One reason seems to be private equity, which bought up ambulance makers and raised prices.

Britain's shadow workforce is paid as little as 65p an hour. Who cares for the carers? | Frances Ryan Carer’s allowance turns 50 this year, but it’s no reflection of the labour of the millions who cook, clean and nurse behind closed doors, says Guardian columnist Frances Ryan

Govts don't value humanity.

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.

This is tragically beautiful.
