This is obscene.

That others in politics can’t or won’t say that this is obscene hits at the heart of the problems we face.

We are the 99.999%.

Tax the super rich.

Tories “won’t go on the record saying Farage is unfit to lead the country, even if they suspect it to be true, because they also suspect they may be propping up his government, or pleading for jobs in it, by the end of the decade”

They never stop letting us down.

Lewis Hamilton #44

🗣️I’m pleased with today’s drive. We made good progress, overtook a lot of cars, and got ourselves back into the points. The two-stop strategy worked well so thank you to the team. It’s been a tough season, but the kindness and hard work of everyone at Ferrari means a lot to me.

This suggested move to no juries, digital ID (WHICH WAS NOT IN THE ELECTION MANIFESTO AND WHICH NO-ONE WANTS) and the Home Secretary’s shocking plans for vulnerable refugees- paints an ugly picture of a harsh, authoritarian
state. ( And this is a “Labour” gov!)

Racist.. Russian stooges working against UK / EU.. UKIP wasn’t about achieving a perceived fantasy independence.. it was about doing Russia’s bidding for £’s and a hatred of non Whites & Muslims..

Good job Farage and Reform aren’t any like them.. hold on a ssssssssssssecond❗️🤦🏼‍♂️🙄
Three more British MEPs in Nigel Farage’s bloc now alleged to have “followed the script” given to Nathan Gill by an alleged Russian asset, according to prosecutors.

At least eight UKIP and Brexit Party MPs were focus of efforts by Nathan Gill

I understand &sympathise with these opinions, but this is a sample of thoughtful young people with a rich IRL interest. It’s an experiment that needs to happen, given the youth mental health crisis. Of course social media isn’t the only driver of this. But let’s see what happens when it’s removed.

This story more than any other disgusts me.

Yinka was a little 9 year old boy

Farage was a swaggering bully aged 17

We all knew those bullies at school and in this case teenager Farage was a racist bully too
Yinka Bankole was 12 when Farage spotted him in the playground:

“He towered over me. ‘Where are you from?’ he asked. Within seconds of offering my rather confused and sputtering answers, he had a clear response: ‘That’s the way back to Africa,’.”

We have enough money to feed, house and provide education & healthcare to all.

We don’t do it because the 1% oppose it.

The billionaire class benefits from keeping the rest of us in poverty.

They hoard the wealth and blame immigrants & marginalized people for economic hardship.

Tax the rich.
