Err, sorry to rain on parade and all that but looks to me as if LDs are still trailing according to the bar chart. Just saying. I would love nothing more than to see LDs right up there: after all, this is the party that wants to rejoin EU. Why not make a pact with the Greens? That could be sizeable!

The thousands of mindless morons that will vote for this dumbfuck, and therefore will let him take residency in No10 care little, if any, about his selling of Brexit. All they care about is hanging flags, painting roundabouts and expelling immigrants, even if they’re legally here.

Nigel Farage could never be trusted to run Britain after getting Brexit so

'Farage could never be trusted to run Britain after getting Brexit so wrong'

No Brexit champion, particularly Nigel Farage, is worthy of high office after proving so conclusively wrong on such a seismic issue, says Mirror Associate Editor Kevin Maguire

This whole episode stinks. So, PPE Medpro was placed into administration a day before the ruling. How convenient. There is zero chance of full recovery, just token gestures. With full ownership (Barrowman) and aggressive lobbying (Mone), they need to be in jail until full repayment.

Limited liability is one of our weird silences. It's a massive free gift society makes to plutocrats, seldom remarked upon, let alone contested.
Shareholders should have to buy limited liability, like any other insurance. The insurers would then be liable. 🧵

Will UK taxpayers get their £122m back from PPE Medpro?

The high court told the company linked to Michelle Mone to pay up over the supply of defective gowns, but there appears no clear route to reclaim the funds

Morning all. If Trump is declaring Antifa to be a terrorist organisation, does this mean he is admitting to being a fascist? If true, it’s apparent that Antifa (this imaginary cell of highly trained operatives) are infiltrating the Portland Massive and inspiring the leaders to dress as frogs!

So true!

I feel ashamed and sorry for you to be subjected to this racism. Being forced from your family must be agonising. I hope you know we’re not all like these mindless thugs and bullies. The divisiveness caused by Brexit and Farage/Johnson is getting worse.

Trump embodies the very notion of peace by declaring an economic war! If that doesn’t define total irony, what does?

James Medlock @jdcmedlock.bsky.social · 3d

“I’ll declare war on you if you don’t give me the peace prize” is an incredible bit

How are the gov’t going to check that water companies are investing in improved infrastructure and not paying out bonuses to fat execs! HOW!! The Guardian article didn’t say. If we believed the companies would, it might help to soften the blow. But like politicians, I don’t believe them.

Trump can designate Antifa a major terrorist threat all he wants: he’s still running scared of the dreaded files! Long may he live this way until their release.

These Portland rabid cutthroat anarchists are a scourge to decent society.They need to be dealt with expeditiously! Ms Noem exhibits the highest bravery in the face of total annihilation.The authorities need to show stealth and resistance to overcome these mass hordes.That chicken guy looks scary.

It tends to go horribly wrong when football people get political. Stick to football they say. Aren’t they supposed to have a political opinion, just because they do or used to play professionally. If Neville were a supporter of flag waving, they’d say nothing. But he isn’t so the media condemns him.

It’s a crying shame they don’t throw them both in jail. I guess it’s hard to attribute any loss of life to their subsequent greed. Making money at the suffering of others is unforgivable.

Let's hope the Government now finds the courage to go against the proper VIP Tory Royalty who also made tens of millions at a time of crisis supplying PPE which was not fit for purpose. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

And yet, when you call Farage groupies and flag shaggers, fascists, they get upset and hide behind free speech. That is until you claim your right to free speech; criticise them, and then you’re banned.

Her and Chris Mason need to get a room. What for? So they can replay right wing rhetoric on endless tapes where they featured as interviewer: kowtowing to Farage et al. What do you think I meant them needing a room for?? Tut….tut…

A massive congrats to the England women’s rugby team. That’s both football and rugby crowns. The girls are showing us all how it’s done. I know this is not now politically correct, but you know what; I don’t care. Well done ladies!

Dr. Tottenham strike again. I bet Wolves could not wait to play Spurs to get their season up and running. They sure love playing Spurs, either home or away; they’re not fussed. They know 3-pts are up for grabs. How do Spurs beat Man City?! A total mystery. Spurs are too predictable.

BigLittleLad @biglittle1.bsky.social · 15d

And what do you think they will be used for, eventually? There are rarely innovative ideas, just good intentions. If the far right get into No10, they will weaponise them.
