The destruction of everything you see around you isn't immigrants, it isn't disabled people, it isn't pensioners.

It is the cost of billionaires.

Are you happy with it?

With an ally of Nigel Farage pleading guilty to taking bribes for making pro-Russian statements, it’s clear we need an in-depth investigation into Russian money in our politics.

Today I asked the Prime Minister whether he would back an investigation.

Corporations or ultra-wealthy individuals with numerous business interests cannot be trusted to prioritize the public’s right to know over their own financial interests.

When billionaires take control of media, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

Teenager from Gaza ‘stuck in hell’ after being prevented from joining mother in UK

Dania Alafranji, 16, still waiting on visa from Home Office despite being offered school place in Berkshire 18 months ago A teenager from Gaza who has been denied an opportunity to attend school in Britain and be reunited with her mother has said she is “stuck in hell”, despite other European countries making exceptions for students from the region. Dania Alafranji, 16, was accepted on to the Nsouli Scholars Programme to attend Reddam House school in Berkshire more than 18 months ago, but has yet to receive a visa that would allow her to escape the war in Gaza, with her family saying that they feel helpless and have been “going in circles” trying to get her to Britain.

Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community.

Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.

Reform the #PlasticPeoplesParty where most of them went to public school & many are millionaires

Any prat can don a flat cap, wax jacket & stand in a pub with a pint, chatting up locals..

Fun fact both Farage & Tice used tax havens to avoid paying taxes like the people because they don’t want to❗️

BladeoftheSun @bladeofthes.bsky.social · 4d

Look at this graph, Reform almost all of them went to Private School.

If you are Working Class and you vote for Reform, you are a traitor, to yourself.

Or as we call them, a bloody fool.

Just goes to show that some people are above the law, quite a few it seems.

You'll never hear the likes of "Tommy", Pharage, Tice etc mention the lack of justice where elite white men associated with the Epstein grooming gang have not even been properly investigated.

They should be investigated.

Extract from Independent article that states:

"Prince Andrew hosted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein at Royal Lodge just days before the financier’s arrest, it has been reported.

Epstein stayed at the Windsor mansion alongside Ghislaine Maxwell and Harvey Weinstein as part of Andrew’s daughter Beatrice’s masked ball 18th birthday celebrations in 2006, reports the BBC.

The invite was extended two months after a US arrest warrant had been issued for Epstein for the sexual assault of a minor. He was arrested by police in Florida eight days after the event."

It's oppressive, isn't it, the dark.
The only upside is it makes us appreciate summer, I guess.
Let's hope Thursday is a sunny one 🙏

The Holly Bush Inn, Makeney, Derbyshire.
Fabulous ancient inn on the medieval Derby-Chesterfield coach road.
Authentic rather than smart, and very popular.
It was the last day of their October beer festival.
Saturday was sunny so we walked over there & stumbled back (it's an hour or so from home).

Awake at 3 here, but grabbed another hour or so since.
I'm not a huge fan of this clock changing thing.
Have a good Tuesday.
