So tell me again how Nigel Farage, who just took the largest ever political donation, from a Tory mega-donor, and another donation from the Viscountess wife of the non-dom owner of the Daily Mail, is planning to "take on the establishment"

It's sometimes easy to forget just how horrible Hillary Clinton is. But her recent vocal speech claiming that Israel's genocide is really 'tiktok lies' is just the latest by this warmongering neolib. And because she's so clearly corrupt, it added fuel to MAGA and catalysed the trump chaos of today.

Today, the occupation targeted several areas across Gaza, including the Al Tuffah neighborhood. This is a developing story, and the numbers of those killed and injured are expected to be updated shortly. Since the so-called ceasefire began on October 10, at least 360 Palestinians have been killed.

This is why we need different leaders. Pushed into warfare while millions live in poverty and hunger. And who will die in those tanks? Not Starmer's kids I'm sure. And why is it they always push the military agenda, and ignore things like the national emergency briefing www.nebriefing.org

This family have been fleecing our nation of its assets for far too long. Dysfunctional toffs who live in mansions, going to parties and the races like they're in a Jeeves and Wooster novel, while approximately 16 MILLION British people live in poverty, hungry and cold. #EndtheMonarchy #UKRepublic
The King’s brother, Prince Edward, enjoys his Surrey mansion at a peppercorn rent, it can be revealed, after The Times forced the disclosure of documents held by the Crown Estate.

Brilliant takedown of on of the Torygraph's "Labour's mansion tax will ruin my life!" bleating rich people articles. Read the full thread.
Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.
Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph
Because this does NOT add up!
No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

They had saved up £4000 for a visa for their 8 year old daughter to be able to join them in the UK, and had applied back in June. And even now, when the child and her grandmother are left homeless by a hurricane, our shitty UK Labour government won't help reunite her with her parents. Disgusting.

When a nation's army shoots to destroy ante-natal ultrasound machines, it's clear they want pregnancies to fail... which is...yet MORE evidence that it is GENOCIDE not just 'war crimes' (as someone tried to very aggressively argue to me just yesterday). #SavePalestine & protect it from Trump & Blair
The IDF didn't just strike near a hospital. They systematically targeted and destroyed the equipment at the only cancer treatment facility in all of Gaza.
Let's be perfectly clear about the depths of evil we are witnessing. This is your US tax dollars at work.
