Saw this on X.

Merlin Strategy, run by Scarlet Maguire (formerly of JL Partners) is Farage's favoured polling company. Until very recently, registered at the same address as the Brexit Party's old one.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

Rather than pursuing ICE policies, I want a goverment that is a NICE:

Not
Imitating
Criminal
Enterprises
Trump started it.

Reform and Tories are at it too.

And Labour already heading in that direction.

All cruel, potentially deadly and does nothing to fix the cost of living crisis.

Not just the image generation, but also the platforming, storing and sharing of them.
I am extremely confused as to why the UK government and police are saying Grok’s mass-scale CSAM generation is an issue for Ofcom.

This isn’t about X failing to moderate CSAM, which is an Online Safety Act issue. It is about the company and its technology being actively involved in its generation.

More ties and reliance on Trump’s America does seem somewhat unadvised at the moment. 🙄
Yet another huge contract, awarded without any competitive bidding process, to Wes Streeting's favourite NHS supplier, the Hard Right US surveillance tech specialists Palantir, for military decision making capability.
Palantir lands biggest ever UK defense deal
The £240 million contract with the Ministry of Defence has renewed a debate about Britain’s dependence on American technology.

The narrative change will be:

Insurrection > Riot > Protest > Fight for Justice.

Trump wants to set the scene that anyone who helps his agenda will be rewarded. Even if they have to fight police etc. to keep him as president.

Hes created, funding and emboldening private and unregulated militias.
Noticing that CNN is calling Jan. 6 a “riot,” not an “insurrection.”

PSA: It was an insurrection.

Even if EU leaders were made to chose, Trump would go back on his word and try to extort both anyway he could
What’s the betting Trump just straight up tells Europe to choose between Ukraine & Greenland?

Under the Treason Felony Act 1848, it is a crime punishable by life imprisonment to intimidate parliament or encourage any foreign power to invade the U.K.

We should be applying this law to every traitor openly calling for the U.S to depose our democratically elected government.

This is exactly what Labour are missing.
They've done well in passing a lot of practical bills recently that'll help, far more than the tories ever did.

It isn't enough they need more ambition, courage, better comms and morals (gaza).

Despite what we are often told, this line from Mamdani’s inauguration speech is what true pragmatism actually looks like:

“Beginning today, we will govern expansively and audaciously. We may not always succeed. But never will we be accused of lacking the courage to try.”

Measles is deadly, far worse than covid, this growth could lead to more deaths.

The epidemic could cripple the USA.

Who can fight an autocoup during a pandemic?

More spending with less oversight, corruption, enforced lockdowns, curfews, sweeping new "public health" laws all useful....

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator?

This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

Over the last 50+ years, it's Labour Govts that have held or increased defence spending relative to GDP - and Reeves' recent plans will take it to the highest share in 30 years.

It's Tory Govts that have left us vulnerable.

Not to the woeful Express though...

This retired couple in America went from $443 to $2,224 a month for healthcare after Trump and the Republican Party killed Obamacare subsidies.
That’s exactly the nightmare Farage wanted for Britain when he flirted with selling off the National Health Service to Trump.

Don't forget he's also a pedo.

People should be calling him every time he's in public.
The man who ran on a platform of "America First" and promised no involvement in foreign wars is now launching wars of choice in Nigeria, Venezuela, Syria, and Lebanon.

Meanwhile, he is verbally attacking our oldest and closest allies.

The oil belongs to china, that's where it was heading. They've reported to the UN but i doubt they will tolerate this for long. Trump will even start a conflict with china to hide from the EPSTEIN files.
There were plenty who said Bush didn't win a fair election.

What would America's response be if another nation had used that as an excuse to blatantly steal its ships and oil?

The man is an insane fascist. It's time global leaders started telling it how it is.

People always harp on about British Values.

I'd like to live in a country that values the lives of innocent children and babies.

Those are real British values we should all stand behind.

Instead those claiming to be patriots take money from elites, propose tax cuts and attack the most vulnerable.

Because a small group of powerful individuals benefit most when:

-The economy is unstable

-Societies are divided to distract

-Public institutions are weak ready for privatisation

-Market are unpredictable (for most)
The UK benefits most when:

- The economy is stable
- Society is cohesive
- Public institutions are strong
- Markets are predictable

So why are so many trying to disrupt this? And with lies?

Labour are a success story but are being made out to be in chaos. Why?

Also unquestioningly repeating this line, despite people who sign up to Reform not having to confirm they are UK citizens, as is required for membership to other parties…..
