What a surprise, grifting off immigration, particularly shameless that one.
French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy to try to intimidate her during Marine Le Pen's trial for embezzlement — and details how he has used similar fascistic tactics to intimidate other judges around the world who rule against his alt-right friends.
Call that an argument? THIS is an argument.

This is the same guy who tried to steal £45 million from the poorest community in London on behalf of a billionaire Tory donor! 🤮🤮

Trump despises the EU, he has historically backed the UK’s departure from the EU, notably during his first term when he praised Brexit saying it would be a "great thing" for Britain. Comprehensive reasons or what?

Will the Covid inquiry reveal extent of corruption?
The Covid Inquiry exposes Tory cronyism – VIP contracts, backroom deals, and neglect of the bereaved. Will justice be served?

HMRC’s excuse for going after the man that owed 2p is that they go after any debt.
Except if you are Nadhim Zahawi, David Cameron or Rishi Sunak’s wife, or any other Government official or donor.
Far-right 'libertarian' rag the Spectator has published a 'satirical' cartoon mocking neurodivergent people.

Well, we don't like to say we told you so, but... @campaignjane.bsky.social on the Covid Chumocracy- from November 2020, our very first year of speaking truth to power.
On Covid corruption, and sleaze generally, it has been simply woeful. We needed a powerful Covid corruption commissioner but Labour allowed itself to be persuaded by the Cabinet Office not to doing anything that might undermine public trust - as though there was any left to undermine.

The world's media descended. But what's the full story of the nine year wait for an oasis in this Southside food desert?
A gobsmacking story. Water companies let toxic waste disposers, for cash, dump their loads into sewage farms. The sewage sludge is then spread, untested, on farmland, potentially poisoning vast areas, entire ecosystems and the people (you and me) eating the food.

Here's a major source of microplastics in soils.
Other sources, astonishingly, include the *deliberate application* of microplastics, to make soils more friable, and the plastic pellets in which many fertilisers are encased.
It is simply crazy and must stop now.
