A right wing press and media are a danger to true democracy. Just look at the USA.

Private Eye exposing again the utter idiocy of our politics.
This sums up *exactly* how Farage and Reform get rocket-boosted by a media, drunk on sensationalist nonsense. Unserious and irresponsible but it’ll be up to us to prove them wrong.

TRIUMPH FOR REFORM AS IT SWEEPS INTO THIRD PLACE

by Our Political Correspondent
Hugh Kip

In the most seismic upheaval in the history of politics, Nigel Farage's Reform party continued its inevitable
march to Number 10 by spectacularly coming third in the Hamilton by-election.
After a disastrous night for Labour which saw the party only come first and win the election, it was clear that Starmer's days are numbered. If this result were replicated in a General Election, Reform would win a massive no seats, while labour would be consigned to the dustbin of history with another massive majority.
The records will show that our prediction that it would be a two horse race between the SNP and Reform became a reality - as the Scots rejected the discredited SNP and consigning them to second place. This proved, as we said, that Reform is the only option north of the border, apart from Labour.
A bruised and battered Starmer was clearly on the ropes as he addressed cheering crowds, and he must now only be days away from resigning - thus paving the way for Nigel Farage and his four MPs to sweep to power.

The actual proportion of migrants arriving by small boat is 4% of the total migration into Britain. That is 4%. Don't believe all the disinformation in the right wing press and by Farage.

If you're racist, stupid, with a low I.Q., then there's only one party to represent you. If you're a Farage lover and admire his wealth, and don't care a damn about The National Health, if you can forget what's just, and love the Upper Crust...... then vote Reform!

A few hours ago, Israel tried to kill Motasem A Dalloul at his residence, killing at least 10. When people came to help, IDF struck again.

He got out alive, miraculously.
For how long?

Israel has decided to speed up the elimination of witnesses before their “occupation.”

This is why we should all be angry about the use of asylum hotels. Private firms raking in millions while people forced to live in these hotels endure appalling conditions.

People seeking safety and UK taxpayers are losing out and the only winners are millionaire companies.
