BREXITEERS: Britain must be a proud independant sovereign nation again, able to think for itself ALSO BREXITEERS: Britain must slavishly follow the orders of Donald Trump without question no matter how dumb & dangerous they are

@highbrow_nobrow Oh, please let it be so

Please be careful in London. I have spent 25 years there, but I have never heard a story as frightening as this one from today in which nothing at all happened.

Keir Starmer’s Labour Government Is Much Better Than the Media Admits – Byline Times bylinetimes.com/2026/01/29/kei…

The anmount of Tax avoided by Jim Ratcliffe's move to Monaco could pay for an extra 120,000 NHS nurses. It's not immigrants that are the problem. It's billionaires.

@MAGALieTracker Yes, we’ve had them here in the UK for years. He’s either stupid or blatantly lying. Or both.

BREAKING: Trump lies that America is the only country that uses mail-in ballots. 34 countries or territories allow mail-in voting. He thinks you’re too stupid to Google this claim. We just did.

@PhilMyers53 @ChrisMasonBBC Thank you - complaint submitted.

I see @ChrisMasonBBC is still at it Complaints here share.google/feZnAhjKKdZDPk…

@TedUrchin I support Starmer

I’m following back all genuine Starmer supporters and those that wish to see his premiership continue and go from strength to strength. Reply here saying ‘I support Starmer’ and I will follow you back if not doing so already. We need to stick together. #StarmerStays #FBSS

@LaindonFEMINIST @Patrici89225734 @peterbane784367 @BBC Me too! First time in a while…

@Patrici89225734 @peterbane784367 @BBC Apparently she’s hosting Kuensberg’s show this coming Sunday. Means I can watch!!

I'm sure Victoria Derbyshire isn't the answer for everyone but she is honest and interviews with the utmost impartiality we have begged the @BBC to allow her to do more political programs for years if they don't listen to their viewers, we must stop watching the BBC altogether!

Seems to be a bit of a groundswell regarding the biased reporting of Laura Kuenssberg and Chris Mason. The BBC needs to fire both!

The nation has witnessed over the past week, an attempt by the privately owned UK media, to unseat a sitting UK Prime Minister. It's a torrent of bias, one sided reporting, bereft of facts, but loaded with rumour, spin & smears. The hacks, media managers & bosses, are a disgrace.

Wonderful delivery of Shakespeare’s enduringly true lines about ‘strangers’ ❤️

I honestly can’t hold this in anymore. Donald Trump and Nigel Farage are not aberrations. They are the same project, running in two countries, with the same backers, the same tactics, and the same end goal. Both wrap themselves in flags while looting the country they claim to love. Both posture as champions of “ordinary people” while serving billionaire interests. Both scream about morality, family values, and patriotism while embodying corruption, cruelty, and hypocrisy at a scale that would have ended any serious political career a generation ago. Trump has been found liable for sexual assault. He has a documented history of misogyny, racism, and outright contempt for the rule of law. He is repeatedly linked to Epstein’s circle, praised authoritarian strongmen, undermined democratic institutions, and treated public office like a personal cash machine. Farage plays the same game in a British accent. He gets a free pass despite his proximity to the same toxic networks, the same culture-war opportunism, the same pattern of scandal that would destroy anyone else. Reform isn’t a grassroots movement. It’s a fear-driven marketing operation, propped up by billionaire money, bot-amplified engagement, and relentless misinformation. Immigrants. Minorities. “Woke elites.” Trans people. The EU. The media. There’s always a target, always a threat, always someone to blame. Not because it’s true, but because fear is profitable. Fear keeps people angry, distracted, and voting against their own economic interests. And that’s the real point. While people argue about flags and pronouns, vast amounts of wealth continue to move upwards. Away from workers. Away from public services. Away from communities. Straight into the hands of donors, allies, family members, and friendly corporations. Deregulation. Tax cuts. Asset stripping. Corruption dressed up as populism. The most grotesque part is the hypocrisy. The people who claim to care about faith, family, freedom, and national pride are cheering for men who violate all of it openly. Lying, cheating, assaulting, scapegoating, enriching themselves, and laughing while they do it. This isn’t about left vs right anymore. It’s about whether we’re willing to admit what this actually is. A billionaire-funded con that feeds on fear, corrodes democracy, and treats ordinary people as expendable. If this is what you’re still defending, then stop pretending it’s about values. At least be honest about what you’re supporting.

Is anyone keeping a record of the questions Farage is refusing to answer? - about Epstein - about Bannon - about Reform donations - about Nathan Gill - about Russian influence - about his admiration for Putin - about Iranian & Indian & Thai-based billionaires - about Clacton…

It is difficult to describe what kind of morally depraved, malignantly narcissistic mindset you have to have to only ‘feel bad’ for dead people based on whether their parents voted for you. He may be the worst person to ever feature in American public life.

Labour helping ordinary people with: Renters rights Workers rights Leasehold rights Two child cap Sure/Best start centres Youth Clubs Breakfast Clubs Min wage uplifts Hillsborough Law Nationalised trains Cap on bus fares These don’t help the rich. They help you and me!!

Speaking at Davos and without ever mentioning the name of America's pedophile führer, Canada's PM Mark Carney, with one of the most powerful pro-democracy, anti-authoritarian fascism speeches you'll ever hear. If you're a Canadian, you should be brimming with pride. 🙌💪👏✊️👇
