Trump's plan for an alternative UN follows his familiar pattern: create a rival to anything that's slighted him.

Reform seem to have been charging people £125 to put themselves up as potential Gorton and Denton parliamentary Candidates:

Applications closed Sunday.

When did they select Goodwin?

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

“No progress at all was made in reducing overall levels of relative hardship”

Misery caused by Tory austerity and failures of governance; prioritising ruinous ideology over social investment.
Reform wants voters to be angry, but plans more of exactly the same.

The people who broke our country are the same people Nigel Farage is now relying on to fix it.

It couldn’t be clearer: Reform UK are simply the Conservatives with a new logo.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

New YouGov poll gives Reform its lowest lead since last April.

RFM: 25% (+1)
LAB: 21% (+2)
CON: 17% (-1)
GRN: 16% (-1)
LDM: 14% (=)

Looks like hoovering up a series of deeply unpopular, disgraced former Conservative ministers isn't quite the massive vote winning strategy that was predicted

Trump cares so much about the Iranians being brutalised by the 🇮🇷regime that he's going to hand over the Iranians in the US to that regime. Probably a death sentence.

The hypocrisy on this is coming from so many different directions.

Farage & the ex cons:

1999 onwards: We need to leave the EU
2016: Brexit will fix the problems of this country! The EU will give us everything we want, no downsides!
2021: Brexit
2022 onwards: The country’s broken, let us back in to fix it.

Sod off!

Tories had 14 years in power. Labour have had 18 months.
So when ex Tories like Braverman say “We can either continue down this route of managed decline to weakness & surrender. Or we can fix our country, reclaim our power, rediscover our strength” it is hugely insulting and very bloody irritating.

In his arrogance Musk thought he was untouchable but the authorities are closing in, as seen by the EU launching an investigation into Grok under the Digital Services Act today.

Meanwhile the Centre for Countering Digital Hate estimated Grok produced 23,000 CSAM images in just 11 days.
