She's still; bitter about not being able to bring back more air pollution for Londoners!

I see that woeful right wing extremist Susan Hall is waving a much smaller flag today than last night.

Has she become less patriotic since attending the GB 'News' party?

And does she now carry a flag around with her at all times?

Reality wins again in the latest 'Carole Malone vs Reality' challenge...

At the time of their arrest, the test was if China was classed as an 'enemy' as per the Official Secrets Act.

And the pair were charged in April 2024 (while the Tories were still in Govt), so presumably the CPS had sufficient evidence at that time.

There's certainly tons of customisable watches on Alibaba for around $30 (compared to the Trump watch retail price of $499).

"Buy one for yourself, buy one as a gift and put one away in the safe with the original box and packing for future generations to collect" as the website suggests!

Refukker Dazzler claims that his anti Net Zero stance at Durham 'is representing you', presumably meaning his voters.

Meanwhile his Refuk party his bought and paid for by the fossil fuel polluters.

And his voters will now spend even longer being subject to the polluters' profiteering.

Weren't the fash going on about cousin marriages the other day?

Perhaps I misunderstood them and they were arguing that was too distant a relation...?

Just skim-reading Lowe-life's new 'mass deportation plan' - the scale of his ambition almost matches that of the Nazis

No surprise that once he's removed all the 'illegal' migrants, he then wants to change the status of legal migrants to illegal so he can deport them too

Who would come after that?

Was Habeus Corpus a good friend of Magna Carta?

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · 1d

“Have you given any more thought to suspending habeas corpus?”

TRUMP: “Suspending who?” 🤷🏼

Aaand scene.

That's odd, I can't find any of Farage's posts from the previous 5 days showing no boats crossing...

Just thinking, wouldn't a digital ID, linked to the Land Registry, make it easier for someone to remember what houses they had paid for...?

Refukker Farage: 'I will not be having digital ID put me in prison'

I suspect if he did go to prison, the first thing he would be issued with is a digital ID though...

And would Refuk accept it as meeting their requirement to show ID to get into their conferences?

Refukker Yusuf forgot to note that Storonsky legged it to the UAE a year ago - in Oct 2024.

That's the month after Farage spoke at the Nomad Capitalist conference - a group that entices wealthy people to flee the UK for global tax havens.

Yusuf will surely be furious with Farage when he finds out.

'Honest' Bob must have forgotten that time when the Tories cut Stamp Duty, which lead to house prices rising far faster then the cost of Stamp Duty would have been - thus making owning a home even more of a distant dream.

Still, at least some poor people will suffer from the related Tory cuts.

After the devastation of Labour's VAT on school fees, the number of private schools in the UK has fallen...sorry...er...risen to a record high.

L: VAT-stricken Harrow School cuts...sorry...er...progresses its new Science Building, Dining Hall and Sports Centre

R: Labour get on with job of sorting out all those crumbling schools inherited from the Tories, with school-fee VAT helping with the cost

Let's not go backwards with Badenough.
