First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped.

Yet the Representation of the People Bill won’t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented.

Tell Keir Starmer to change this.

Two ICE-Gestapo killers have been placed on leave after lying under oath about a violent encounter they supposedly faced during their seige in Minneapolis. They face termination and criminal charges.

Good, they aren’t agents, they are terrorists. They should all be sent to jail.

Thinking about the NAZI Government in the USA and its GESTAPO (ICE), where are the people who believe in democracy and the Constitution? Where are the people who have sworn their oath to defend the Constitution?
What is happening?

“The time has come to bring Europe’s mutual defence clause to life,” von der Leyen told the Munich Security Conference, in a bold pitch for the EU to take on a Nato-like defence role

“As they say in Ukraine, you change or die,” she added. "We must adopt this mantra too.”

@rsf-interfr.bsky.social report on the Islamofascist Government in Iran, headed by Khamenei, the least Islamic so called religious leader in the Islamic world.
There is NOTHING Islamic about the Iranian Regime. They murder their own children.

There are so many fucked up things with the current administration that it's hard to focus on one but this recent move is basically a death sentence for the planet. I've been involved with more boots on the ground actions over the years than I can count and this really bums me out.

In case you're not sure, the politicians in Kentucky who made this 👇 happen should be charged with homicide.
But first they should be confronted with their ignorance and stupidity.
Maybe they should be held and treated in a secure psychiatric facility.

This 👇 repeatedly, along with the 1,200,000 lost Russians, persuades me that Putin will not die a natural death.
How can Russians justify Putin's terrorist invasion of Ukraine and total disregard for lost Russian and Ukrainian lives?
Putin is a psychopathic NAZI murderer!

Miller, Bondi, Noem, Homan, Vance, Hegseth and on and on and on.
The depth of hideousness in the Trump administration is breathtaking. How on earth does anyone gather a collection of such foul people into one place? Perhaps by being utterly hideous and foul himself!
