Whenever i feel overwhelmed by Trump and the quagmire of reaction that is his regime, I remember the amazing left wing political figures and history of the States. I've just been reading about Big Bill Haywood and his role in the Labour movement , particularly the IWW.

While we should all be looking very hard at Starmer’s leadership, this week Nigel Farage decided that the people who vote for him would prefer to have cheaper beer at the expense of children being lifted out of poverty.

Nigel Farage is going to "save pubs" by cutting 5p off the price of a pint of beer...
The £3 billion cost will be funded by reinstating the two-child benefit limit.
This might be the worst policy anyone has ever come up with.

Trump depicts the Obamas as monkeys in one of his latest posts on his antisocial network. For him, this is merely a new low. He does what he does best as a degenerate, psychopathic, racist narcissist: he insults people. 1/2
