That moment when it finally dawns on you that you had lied to your voter base and capitulated to the nonsensical, culturally suicidal demands of the European Union.

I love how they believe money spent by the government is just literally set on fire and disappears. If the government builds houses, invests in industries and infrastructure... this wealth then grows over time. A thing that short termist right wingers have no understanding of - its literally how we built modern Britain.
Rob Moore@robprogressive

The total wealth of UK billionaires is £772.8 billion If Labour took all of it, it would fund the country for around 7.8 months So are billionaires really the issue, or is it how money is being spent

In 1946 the British government introduced free school milk for every child in the country. One third of a pint, every school day, from the age of five to the age of fifteen. The milk was whole. Full-fat. From British dairy herds. It was delivered to the school gate in small glass bottles with foil caps and left on the doorstep in metal crates, where it sat in the sun until morning break if the weather was warm and developed a slightly suspect taste that an entire generation of British adults can still describe with uncomfortable precision. The generation that grew up on school milk was, by every anthropometric measure, the healthiest generation of British children ever recorded. Average height increased. Bone density improved. Dental health, despite the sugar in everything else, improved. Iron deficiency rates among school-age children dropped. The growth charts that the Ministry of Health had been keeping since the war showed a consistent, measurable, year-on-year improvement that tracked precisely onto the introduction of the milk programme. In 1971 Margaret Thatcher, then Education Secretary, cut free school milk for children over seven. The tabloids called her Thatcher the Milk Snatcher. She was vilified. She kept the policy. The next generation of British children, the ones who grew up without the daily third of a pint, were measurably less healthy than the one before. The growth charts show it. The dental records show it. The conscription medicals, while they lasted, showed it. The thing the milk had been providing, the calcium, the vitamin D, the vitamin A, the complete amino acid profile, the conjugated linoleic acid, the fat-soluble nutrients that a growing skeleton requires in order to reach its genetic potential, was no longer arriving at morning break in a glass bottle with a foil cap. It was replaced, eventually, by nothing. Or by a carton of fruit juice. Or by a packet of crisps from the vending machine that appeared in the school corridor in the 1990s. The generation that drank the milk is now in its seventies and eighties. They are, on average, taller, stronger-boned, and longer-lived than the generation that came after them. The milk was not magic. The milk was milk. It was the thing the body needed, delivered at the time the body needed it, at a cost the government considered acceptable until it didn't. The cost of not providing it has been rather higher.

The pound has lost 69% of its purchasing power since 2000. A loaf of bread that cost 50p now costs £1.40. A pint that cost £2 now costs £6. A house that cost £80,000 now costs £280,000. Your wages did not keep up. Nothing you did caused this. They printed. You paid. And they are about to do it again. You and your children will work harder for less forever to pay back decades of government incompetence.

🇮🇹 Emiliano Morgia - IL TRUMPISTA
Meloni panicked over rising oil prices. She didn’t believe in President Trump’s plan. She burned a key alliance for nothing.

@ilTrumpista She did not burn the alliance. Trump needlessly picked a fight with the Pope, who she of course defended. That's what this whole thing is about. he didn't say anything at all about the bases until she defended Pope Leo. Entirely avoidable, and 100% on Trump.

IRAN'S ULTIMATUM BOMBSHELL: REMOVE THE BLOCKADE OR SHUT DOWN THE SEAS The United States announced its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz two days ago. Iran stayed completely silent for 48 hours. Then came the response that changes everything: remove the blockade unconditionally or Iran will shut down the Gulf, the Sea of Oman, and the Red Sea entirely. This is no ordinary statement—it is a high-stakes challenge delivered in public with zero room for compromise. THE CORE THESIS: IRAN DRAWS AN UNMISTAKABLE LINE ➡️ Iran officially states the US now faces two clear options with no wiggle room. ➡️ Remove the Hormuz blockade or watch the Gulf, Sea of Oman, and Red Sea get completely sealed. ➡️ This marks a dramatic shift from Iran’s usual nuanced and softer style of communication. THE STRATEGIC MASTERCLASS ➡️ The ultimatum was issued openly and publicly, fully aware of how sensitive Trump is to humiliation. ➡️ Iran raised the stakes massively while still operating inside the ceasefire and negotiations framework. ➡️ They countered the US move outside the rules without abandoning diplomacy altogether. THE TIMING AND CONTEXT ➡️ This comes right after Americans spread a smug narrative that the war was already mostly over. ➡️ It forces the US into a public moment of truth: fold and hand Iran the win, or risk massive escalation. ➡️ Closing those waterways would destroy the facade of short-war success and economic normalcy. THE POWER BEHIND THE SILENCE ➡️ The 48-hour quiet period allowed Iran to secure full consensus across its decentralized leadership. ➡️ Such decisions take longer but deliver immense unity and a shared sense of fate. ➡️ Iran has never bluffed once in this conflict. THE BOTTOM LINE Iran just delivered one of the most daring and momentous moves in this war, forcing Trump and his team into an incredibly tough public decision. The outlines of this conflict are now crystal clear once again. The whole world is watching. This is the sound of power shifting fast in the Persian Gulf. #IranUltimatum #HormuzBlockade #GulfShutdown #StraitOfHormuz #USIranShowdown #PersianGulfCrisis #NoBluffIran

@SirJBritain My northern town has changed dramatically over the last couple of years. Of course the more upmarket side has evaded it. Meanwhile the working class side is more and more competing for housing. Our Labour mp post lots of pictures sipping coffee supporting a new coffee shop...sigh

I just drove to work. There were more Arab and Indian looking men walking about on the streets than native British people. I live in a rural town area. What the hell are they doing here.

@SorchaEastwood @Keiths4pennorth I despise all our political parties...but you didnt actually say anything apart from being fed up. Should have used some specifics and remedies. Unfortunately it came across as a 6th former preaching to her gullible followers.

Sometimes you've got to stand up and speak truth to power ✊️ This government have no idea of just how bad people have it right now. In fact, they've no clue. The cost of living crisis is crushing people. Crushing their hopes. Ordinary people kept their end of the bargain, paying in working hard but they've been let down by successive govts and have nothing to show for it. The govt need to urgently change economic course now and deliver for people, this can't continue.

@Aelthemplaer @jamesmacheese The point is many aspires to it. Stop judging the present in historical ways. Indians burnt women when we turned up. We've done most than the rest of the world a better place including banning the slave trade..something that still goes on...where?

No Tommy, they were built to keep the other Italian city States out, and the French Empire. If you're going to criticize the Pope, please ask your Israeli handlers to at least put the effort in to giving you historically accurate propaganda.
Tommy Robinson 🇬🇧@TRobinsonNewEra

As the Pope visits mosques and calls for Catholics to "live peacefully with Muslims". These are the walls around the Vatican. Literally built to keep invading, pillaging, Muslims, out.
