This is a great example of how one person can make a difference. One person in a frog suit & now an army of actors in fun suits making a mock of Trump’s claim of civil war in Oregon. Love it.

Britain is a democracy Starmer is trying to destroy it. It’s every British citizen right to protest every day of the year if they’re not violent and Starmer shouldn’t be allowed to interfere with that right.

I assume that this will also apply to those protests continually terrorising local communities outside of hotels housing immigrants up and down the country every day?

There are a heap of things Farage gets away with given insufficient scrutiny.

This for one.

Another is blatant racism.

A third is fossil fuel industry backers, which should be raised EVERY SINGLE TIME he says anything about the climate and climate initiatives.

The media need different rules...

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

This is what #ZackPolanski is so good at! Having the moral authority and courage to condemn atrocities across the board-without fear of being smeared as"racist, antisemitic, or"un-British😖!"

He just responds & rebuts the"rinse and repeat" #Establishment abuse and attacks-that destroyed #Corbyn!💪

Keir Starmer is obviously shit. But he’s not as shit as Sunak and certainly nowhere near as shit as Johnson or Truss

Yet vast swathes of the country have been brainwashed by social media to think he’s the worst PM ever. I know Labour should be held to a higher standard than Tories but even so.
