And yet we Brits have consistently voted for the Tories because they have posh accents. Even now, there's so many here willing to believe a bunch of millionaires have the interests of working people at heart.

Trump has all the money, all the power, all the attention, and all the bombs in the world.

But were he to live for a thousand years, he'd never have this.

And it must eat him up.

No, but it does make rich people richer and thus increase the wealth gap, so there is that.

Here’s a hypothetical.

Two countries (A and B) attack another country (C).

In country A, public support for their attack is over 90%.

In country B, public support is less than 32%.

Whose war is it?

The Washington Post on King Donald the Mad: Sometimes the simplest explanations are best. As Groucho Marx said: β€œHe may talk like an idiot and look like an idiot. But don’t let that fool you. He really is an idiot.”

All the usual suspects are blaming Starmer for taking two weeks to get HMS Dragon to Cyprus.

Hey guys, it's a warship. Not a cruise liner.

The fleet was massively reduced for a decade by the Tories and the remaining cash poured into two massive penis substitutes masquerading as aircraft carriers.

Farage saying he's going to reintroduce grammar schools is like the Health Secretary saying he's going to reintroduce leeches.

The research on this is clear, and has been confirmed repeatedly over decades.

Can no one ever kill this zombie?

Crypto investor based in Thailand donates further Β£3m to Reform Christopher Harborne’s gift is latest to party’s election war chest and comes amid calls for cap on political donations

Who the hell is this guy? And what does he want as a return on his Β£millions invested in Reform? Because it sure as shit isn’t a fairer, more progressive, equal and prosperous UK with good public services and well-regulated consumer protections.

The EU law referred to here already allows removal of benefits in case of "concealed financial resources" and sanctions for "seriously violent behaviour". And it's the government's choice to make asylum-seekers wait 12 months before they can work, increasing dependence.

Sun headline about Β£500k compensation for migrants, discussing human rights, and public outcry over payouts.

Sun headline about Β£500k compensation for migrants, discussing human rights, and public outcry over payouts.

Did you see this headline?

Did you feel the requisite anger and rage at asylum seekers that The Sun was asking of you?

Did you maybe blame Starmer because.... um... it was probably his faultπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Would you like to know the reality behind the headline?

Course you would!😜

People say Farage has charisma. This isn’t charismatic. This is dismissive and rude. It’s a serious question about BNP-style racism within his party. And Farage can’t cope with that kind of scrutiny. So he lashes out.
Under the spotlight, his β€˜charisma’ turns very sour indeed.

Spanish PM SΓ‘nchez responds to Trump:

"Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

I think Isabel Oakshitt should be made to claim asylum in the first safe country she arrives at. Because that's literally what she demands everyone else does.
