My dad was Irish, I was born in UK so I can stay in Reform’s Matthew Goodwin’s world as he considers me British due to skin colour..
My best mate was born in UK, his dad Indian, as he’s not white he’s “not necessarily British” says Goodwin
If that doesn’t make Goodwin a toxic racist what does❓🤷🏼♂️😡

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Do you have any non white relatives/friends, because mark my words if Reform gets in, they will be kicked out❗️
Once they have power, they won’t try to hide their white supremacy agenda.. but for now we just get the odd glimpse 🤷🏼♂️

Braverman is one of the most repulsive politicians out there. Vicious, fascistic, useless, without principle, loyalty or *any* actual genuine success to her name.
Just cheating, lying, letting people down and delivering failure. No wonder she feels she’s “come home” to Reform. It’s a perfect fit.

Johnson culled the Tory Party of all but its grimmest dregs & now the grimmest of the grimmest dregs are defecting to Reform. It would be funny if it didn't alllow them, along with Farage, to pretend that they're not responsible for the state of the nation.

If you don’t want politicians re-writing history for political gain please share this video widely - because the only way to stop that happening is to constantly call out this absolute rubbish with the actual facts. If UK news shows are not up to the job let’s do it ourselves
If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it.
We cannot allow him & others to rewrite history.

Trump isnt bothering with any pretence of legitimacy to save the blushes of his NATO allies. They have stolen Venezuela's oil and will sell it and keep the profits. It's a criminal enterprise, plain and simple.
Q: China, Russia, and Iran have interests in Venezuela. How does this operation affect your relationships with them?
TRUMP: In terms of other countries that want oil, we're in the oil business. We're gonna sell it to them. We'll be selling oil.

Trump has no strategic mind. Only sees what's immediately in front of him.
HAS to "win" a fireside chat with Zelenskyy.
Doesn't think about that meaningless "win" aiding USA's rivals. He's incapable. Too dumb.
This "win" against Venezuela gives the green light to Russian and Chinese expansionism
