Nigel Farage has just said Reform will vote AGAINST lifting the 2 child cap, despite promising to lift it in May.
Reform doesn’t care about working class kids - or their families.

Love you Mark but I just don't agree with you on this.
There are parallels with 1939 but in terms of not being in a position to do other than bide time until we are in a better position.
I hate that we are here but I think this evil is necessary.

Ukraine still needs US support.
The UK also needs the US trade deals since we cut ourselves off from Europe & defence spending and resources are at an all time low and will need years to rebuild.
NATO doesn't exist (even with Trump's attitude towards it) without the US.
These are precarious times

Is anyone else having the 1938 moment when it was realised that there was going to be a war with Germany and her allies but Britain simply wasn't in any position to fight?
Echoes of now. All well and good to call Trump out, level all the opprobrium but the UK can't survive the tariffs.

After Venezuela operation, Trump haunted by his pardon for Honduran drug trafficker
Two Latin American strongmen were charged with drug trafficking. One was captured as part of a military raid, the other is free thanks to a Trump pardon.

Officers in USA just arrested a woman for protesting and saying "this is not just a foreign issue, it's our tax dollars being used to commit these war crimes," referring to Venezuela. Will you stop being a weakling and take down this regime?

Farage the Russian money loving traitor caused the problems that he rages about.
He caused them on behalf of Putin and Trump.
And has seriously damaged Britain, as Brexit intended.
