I'm sure it's just a massive coincidence that they used all the same words, ideas and punctuation.

How democratic is the UK? The UK has a crisis of democracy

Average real wage of UK workers barely moved since 2008.

Some bosses collect 1,110 times the average worker pay.

50 families have more wealth than bottom 50% of the population combined.

Super-rich buy political parties and lawmakers to advance their interests.

Did you vote for the above?

Wes Streeting states the SNP are refusing to use the Palintir App in the Scottish NHS for 'Nationalist reasons'
Here are the reasons the UK Government health Minister refers to as 'Nationalist' and it's a revelation of his thinking.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

My seven year old grandson has a better vocabulary than Trump and expresses himself much more clearly. He’s also more mature.

There is no question of Iran’s brutal regime. But the problem is with those trying to topple it. The countries two leaders could be in prison if not in power. Many no longer believe a word Trump says, and others including scholars and legal experts believe Netanyahu is responsible for a genocide.

Israel is, quite rightly, strongly objecting to
an Israeli school being bombed & Israeli children killed
somehow suffering collective amnesia
about the more than 30,000 Gaza children
slaughtered by Israeli Defence Forces
who targeted every Gaza educational establishment
for obliteration

“We cannot say that the United States’ actions are against international law, but we condemn Iran’s retaliatory actions as against international law,” is neither a coherent nor a compelling position.

If you are in Glasgow and want a treat, go try the Glasgow Radical Tours walking tour. One of the guides wrote "John Maclean; Hero of Red Clydeside", Henry Bell and will indulge endless questions like a champ <3
All their tours are great.

It’s a very long way from “Lead us, don’t leave us”! So, Anas wants to remain part of a UK that’s not interested in his opinion. How craven must you be to stay in post in these circumstances?!

Blue shows odds tightening, red shows odds drifting.

Greens hot favourites and coming in, Labour outsiders of three and drifting out.

If you want to oppose Reform don't waste your vote on Labour.

Tourette syndrome activist John Davidson says Bafta told him ‘any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast’ Davidson said he ‘can’t begin to explain how upset and distraught I have been’ over slurs he shouted during the award ceremony

It’s starting to feel like the BBC set him up: they promised to edit out any tics but didn’t even though there was a two hour delay and they edited out statements in support of Gaza, and they even sat him in front of a mic! Were they wanting him to say something for clicks but it backfired on them?
