Just had dogshit put through the letterbox - a Reform UK letter.
This envelope was enclosed. Royal Mail will bill Reform with each of these envelopes delivered to them.
So I've printed this scan on 100 sheets of cheap paper and chopped them - 300 units - and dropped them in a letterbox.
Crack on.

A key part of the backlash to ending the two child limit is the idea parents won’t actually spend the extra money on their kids. Why not give them vouchers for food and clothes instead? critics ask.
Because it’s paternalistic classism that believes being poor means you’re a bad parent.

Welfare = pensions
Welfare = people in work whose employers don't pay enough
Welfare = job seekers in a market with more people out of work than jobs
Welfare = disabled people who provide multiple sources of evidence to claim the help they are entitled to.

Pressure e.g. this govt didn't want to scrap the two child benefit cap but they've been forced to

Imagine TV News covering this farmer protest - banned, but turned up anyway, grinding capital to a halt - if it were about Palestine or climate change, not inheritance tax. Would they present protesters as heroes? Or showing "I need to get to work" and "me auld mam missed her hip operation" voxpops?

Denying an entire group of people their identity and therefore existence, let alone science, is vile

the bbc changed their article from saying 'trans woman' to saying 'biological male who identifies as a woman'.
even if you don't care about trans ppl it should alarm you just how captured the bbc has become.
they will no longer even say 'trans woman'. that's not normal and shows massive bias.

Oh nothing gets racists more puce than having a better car than them. I have STORIES
Long time ago, local figure started complaining about asylum seekers and their Porsches. We were confused - there weren't any asylum seekers and they wouldn't have nice cars. Turns out it was locally-born middle class children of Chinese immigrants moving into the new builds.
