In 1994, I took a lot of heat for this speech warning that the American middle class was in danger. Watch and tell me if I was wrong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bnd0eSuxu84

Nothing says I’m Chairman of a Credible Political Party than calling our upcoming UK Council Elections “midterms” as if we’re in USA 🙄

Fun fact — Dr David Bull is a Reform Ex Tory. He trained as a Dr but went into Media in 1995 so “Dr” doing some heavy lifting

“Never trust a Tory” as Farage says😉

It's the classic Mel Gibson and Jesus meme where Mel is on set in normal clothes casually chatting to a very bloody Jesus (for those of you who don't know it).

Meanwhile, the typical American will pay a federal income tax rate of 14.5%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez:

“The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.”

Facts spoken by an ex-trumper...

“How lucky is the United States that everytime they look for democracy in other countries they find oil instead”- Spain Deputy Gabriel Rufián

Amazon reportedly failed to create any new jobs at its HQ2 in Virginia last year, despite millions of state tax incentives.

The company has cut 30,000 jobs since last October — while saving $4 billion in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill.

Trickle-down economics is a hoax.

He means it this time.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

The current attacks on, and smearing of, @zackpolanski.bsky.social in the right wing media, and the Daily Mail in particular, are disgusting but also, happily, suggest that the @greenparty.org.uk is frightening all the right people!

I borrowed this from the Anti-Reform group on Facebook... 👍

I'd think this was an April Fool's joke if it wasn't a Reform UK member saying it...

Nigel Farage has been heckled up and down the country this month - and it happened again last night...

A choir dressed in white robes with red hems stands in formation in an outdoor square, each person holding an open songbook. Behind them is a large bronze lion statue and historic buildings. In front of the choir, a small donkey with a basket attached to its side is being held by a person wearing a long green garment and bright yellow boots.

A procession walks up wide stone steps in a busy city setting. At the front, a robed figure carries a large metal cross. Behind, a small donkey on a lead walks beside two people in layered clothing, one wearing bright yellow boots. Following them is a choir dressed in white robes with red hems, holding long wooden poles and songbooks. A large crowd trails behind on the pavement and street, with red double‑decker buses and historic buildings visible in the background.

Inside an ornate church with high arched ceilings, chandeliers, and large windows, a group of people in robes stands near the front, arranged in small clusters. A choir in white robes with red hems is gathered to one side behind wooden pews. Additional people sit in the pews throughout the space, facing forward. The setting is bright and decorative, with carved details, gold accents, and black wooden galleries lining the walls.

A procession of robed choristers walks through Trafalgar Square, each holding an open songbook and long palm fronds. They wear white robes with bright red garments underneath. The group passes a large stone monument inscribed with a dedication to Major General Sir Henry Havelock. Behind them, the National Gallery and other historic buildings stand in the background.

Today’s Palm Sunday procession to St Martin-in-the-Fields across Trafalgar Square marked the beginning of Holy Week, the most important time in the Christian calendar.

Hi Reform UK and Andrea Jenkyns, how many Reform UK MPs were in the defence debate yesterday?

By our count it was 0.

Important for understanding the context for Farage’s witless opposition to ‘net zero’.

The hardest part of a “three-day war” is the first two years.

Surprised Putin didn’t mention that to Trump.

Ooh! Ooh! I know this one. They have morals and a conscience. And a brain!

A screenshot of Twitter user Connor Holland saying: “Why do we allow people with a foreign birthplace or ancestry to make decisions for us. They recent us and are working towards the destruction of Great Britain.” He includes a screenshot of a list of “MPs and Lords of foreign descent attempting to silence Nick Timothy MP”.

Within just 48 hours of the Tories refusing to sack Nick Timothy for his Islamophobic comments, the far-right is circulating a list of MPs “of foreign descent” trying to “silence” him. [1/2]
