Zack Polanski stood outside Palantir HQ to demand that the spy-tech firm - which has supported deadly ICE raids and enabled genocide in Gaza - gets out of our NHS

Say no to Palantir in the NHS ❌👇

If you live in the UK and you were shocked to see the US ICE seize a 5 year old boy, don't forget this is what Nigel Farage and the Reform Party UK want for our country.

In a meeting today the US House Speaker Mike “I know nothing” Johnson met with the UK Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Lindsay “do you want to go for an early cup of tea?” Hoyle, to thrash out who’s the wettest and most useless.

I suspect Jenrick's read this. The idea that Farage, *any* Tory who backed Brexit/Johnson/Truss or the media that cheered it all on can somehow disassociate themselves from the messes they made is palpably nuts...
So in Brexit Britain it will almost certainly happen.

Glad Jenrick has been booted out in disgrace, rather than being able to saunter over to Reform whenever he felt it would benefit him most.
But honest to god. These dismal, dismal people.
All conniving to screw the county over for their own power and enrichment.
Repulsively corrupt and inadequate.
BREAKING Kemi Badenoch has sacked Robert Jenrick from the shadow cabinet, removed the whip and suspended his party membership.

She says she was "presented with clear, irrefutable evidence that he was plotting in secret to defect" to Reform

Neil Coyle MP has written a brutal takedown letter to Nigel Farage for his breach of parliamentary protocol, because Farage visited Coyle's London constituency without notifying him. 10/10 no notes.

Imo “Nigel Farage doesn’t believe in Covid vaccines” would tank his polling if more people knew about it (though you could say that for a number of his policies)
Farage: "I believe in vaccinations when they're vaccinations. I don't think what happened with Covid were vaccinations. You have to keep having them every 6 months."

Conspiratorial nonsense.

Some vaccinations like Covid shots require multiple/seasonal doses because immunity fades & viruses change.

Because our politics is in such a terrible place, I think we downplay quite how awful Kemi Badenoch has been.

In any other era the leader of the Conservatives saying 'only migrants commit sex crimes - mass deportations now' would have not just been career ending but would've sunk the whole party
