Class war its always class war.
My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

All in one day:

Immigration Minister lied about me with a slur.

Wes Streeting then tried a different attack.

And the Evening Standard write yet another attack piece because I dare to say we need to tax the rich.

In the last twenty years, mega-donations to political parties from the super-rich haven’t just doubled.

They haven’t just trebled.

They’ve gone up sevenfold.

And that money isn’t generosity.

It’s to buy influence so politicians serve their interests, not our constituents.

And of course Reform UK isn't a party it is a registered company. If they take control of the legislature this is literally a corporate acquisition of a sovereign nation - Let the flagshaggers try their "we want are country back" then
🔴 Nigel Farage’s Reform is more reliant on super-rich backers than any major party in modern British political history

75% of *all* Reform donations *ever* have come from just three rich men

Is this what democracy looks like?

“Some party hack decreed that the people

had lost the government's confidence

and could only regain it with redoubled effort.

If that is the case, would it not be be simpler,

If the government simply dissolved the people

And elected another?”

Remember. So much easier to corrupt one judge than a whole jury. Especially when they are already corrupted. We need to keep jury trials.

Ask yourself, how long would Keir Starmers premiership, or political career last, if this was "his" history?
Then ask why the media still use every opportunity to promote this vile human Farage, as our next PM...

Today, Labour is going to announce a return to PFI for the NHS- which is a total disaster. But they’ve renamed it the “NHS neighbourhood rebuild”. Don’t be fooled 🚨

Not in a hurtful way.

Robin Hood robbed from the rich to give to the poor, despite an exodus of barons to the Middle East. So obviously it can be done.

Does a resident doctor earn more than an MP? No. Let’s save the desperate morality grasps from politicians then. MPs have had umpteen pay rises since 2010 and they have quietly and relentlessly awarded these to themselves, regardless of what the public is going through.
