Clacton has the ⬆️ no of families in England & Wales with deprivation in all 4 measures - employment, education, health, housing. Economic inactivity & low productivity are serious structural issues. Farage is ghosting Clacton for the kind of £ they can't begin to imagine while their kids go hungry

BBC: “He’s polling well → so we must feature him.”
Normal People: “He’s polling well → because you keep featuring him.”

The national broadcaster should not be as obsessed with clicks and giggles as GBeebies

It'll be like Guy Fawkes- remember remember 5th of November-in 100's of yrs there'll be bonfires & fireworks to remind those that come next that dicking about with fascism is never a good plan- bit like blowing up Parliament back in the day

Instead of penny for a guy it will be penny for a trump
A life-sized Guy Fawkes effigy sits in a blue wheelbarrow on a neatly kept lawn. The figure is dressed in a white shirt, black hat, red scarf, and black trousers, with a painted white mask showing a smiling mustachioed face — the classic Guy Fawkes or “V for Vendetta” style mask. A small cardboard sign on the effigy reads “Penny for the Guy.” Behind it, colorful homemade fireworks and decorations are propped up, with a cardboard backdrop depicting London’s Houses of Parliament under a starry sky. To one side, a wooden stand holds a poster advertising a “Guy Fawkes Competition.” In the background are trimmed hedges, tidy suburban houses, and a small woodpile, suggesting preparation for a community bonfire. The scene references Bonfire Night (or Guy Fawkes Night), a British tradition held every November 5th to commemorate the failure of the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, when conspirator Guy Fawkes and others attempted to blow up Parliament. Effigies of Fawkes are traditionally burned on bonfires, accompanied by fireworks and the rhyme: “Remember, remember the Fifth of November.” The image captures both the festive and historical aspects of this enduring cultural ritual.

Fascism coming out of the closet
A political cartoon by Daniel Boris shows a deck of playing cards, with one card pulled out and facing up. The card depicts a caricature of a stern-looking man dressed in a brown military-style uniform with red trim and a cap featuring a skull insignia and the letter “T.” The text on the card reads “TERROR” along both vertical sides. The man on the card says in a speech bubble, “THE STATE WILL DEAL WITH YOU.” The rest of the deck lies face down, resembling standard red-backed playing cards. The image conveys an authoritarian theme, suggesting state repression or the use of fear and power against dissent.

All of the lies all of the time 🙄

“GDP per head has fallen for the last six consecutive quarters.”
“Record crime”
“Postal voting has allowed electoral fraud.”
“Labour didn’t even mention immigration”
Weston-super-Mare “City of Sanctuary”

Open their hate filled gobs & a lie spills out

Beetles be bonking 😂 oh my!

#InsectThursday #macro #MacroPhotography #photography #EastCoastKin
Two iridescent beetles with shiny green, gold, and reddish hues are mating on a green leaf. The insects’ metallic bodies reflect light vividly, and their legs grasp the leaf’s edges while a soft, blurred background highlights their bright colours.
