Memo to Ofcom: interviews that accept a bunch of falsehoods are NOT news.

At the root of all our problems stands one travesty: politicians’ surrender to the super-rich | George Monbiot There are many excuses for failing to tax the ultra-wealthy. The truth is that governments don’t tackle the problem because they don’t want to, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

It is THE fundamental problem. To survive and prosper we must make billionaires history. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Reminder, Farage is not on your side, he wants to charge you to access the NHS.

🚨 NEW: Ed Davey says Keir Starmer should tell King Charles to cancel his state visit to the US in April

Famous internet meme from Melissa McEwan that states "billionaire" is not a qualification. It is the description of a person who is hoarding more resources than they could use in 100 lifetimes while other people are starving. It's the name for a human dragon sleeping on its pile of rubies and gold.

Ah, the days of wobbly RAM packs … Life was so much simpler. Anyone got a time-machine I can borrow?

45 years! Say it ‘ain’t so! I didn’t have a ZX81 but one of my friends lent me his for a couple of days. I was hooked and begged my parents for the then soon-to-be released ZX Spectrum not long after and the rest is truly history.

Haha, that’s tempting!

Exactly! I couldn’t wait for each next issue to be available. A month was a very long time back then.

I got through plenty of magazines in my Speccy days. I moved on to an Amstrad CPC6128 and remember having Amstrad Action and CPC Computing.

Do not allow the USA to use British military bases for strikes on Iran, and give MPs a vote in Parliament. I just signed the campaign calling to tell Prime Minister Keir Starmer: do not allow the USA to use British military bases for strikes on Iran

If you don’t want Britain dragged into another war, sign and share:
38d.gs/Iran_SMC_BSK1

I did not, especially an illegal war. Starmer has overstepped massively. If (when) civilians start being killed through attacks launched from UK he will have blood on his hands as far as I’m concerned.

If the laws that govern how entire states, countries and governments behave and interact with each other don’t matter now, as seems increasingly to be the case, why should literally any law matter any more?

"Unquestionably blindly following the Americans is, in my view, the wrong thing to do.. I'd pass legislation that said military action could be taken if.. the lawful case for it was made.. there was a viable objective &.. you got consent of the commons"

When's the vote, Keir?

Nobody in this country needs one of these, these are purely status cars for the type of person who thinks other road users are just obstacles to drive over.

Tax them out of existence.

CEOS for Bernie @LiberalCEO Find a cool product on Amazon? That company exists OFF Amazon, too. 1) Google company name. 2) Order from their site. 2a) Can usually find a 10% code! 3) Still get product in 2-8 days. 4) Company avoids losing 25% margin share to Amazon. 5) You avoid giving money to Bezos.

Yes! And regarding Step 1, there are also alternatives to Google.

Well, what a total surprise that Nigel Farage would come out with that one, said noone, ever.

Life imitates art.

29 years ago, Wag the Dog told the story of a US president mired in sex scandal that threatened to undermine his presidency so he decided he needed to concoct a make-believe war to boost his support.

Just thought I'd remind everyone of this. #notobrexit

Zack: "Nigel Farage is a sore loser and he just lost an election badly" Anyone also notice how hostile this interview was from the Sky presenters.

But yes, we have seen the Greens’ true colours. Inclusive, brave, principled, honest, and interested in delivering for ordinary people.

Huh?! This is the first mention I have seen of Galloway, and I strongly doubt more than a handful of voters were even aware of it, let alone influenced by it.
