Just a pleb.

There are just enough selfish people in the world to make me despair for the future of mankind.

Trump says "drill baby, drill".

He won't be around to see the destruction, but in 50 years or so, large parts of the planet will be uninhabitable and terrible conflicts will result.

My son turns 21 on Monday, I just hope he has time to eke some pleasure out of life.

That's how bleak I feel rn.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

It's disgraceful that Rachel Reeves didn't take any questions from GB News! The fact that they claim to not be a news channel every time Ofcom find they have breached impartiality rules shouldn't stop them from pretending they are a news channel whenever it suits them.

This is the most extraordinary thing I've read about what's currently happening in the US.

It must be absolutely terrifying to have to live there under king Trump.

Anyone surprised that russian descendant with business interests in russia and ties to russian mafia advise russian mafia on how to better infiltrate US government?
No doubt it involved bribes, blackmail and other traditional russian politics tools.
Vitkov is nothing but russian agent.

Gill is being sentenced today for 8 counts of bribery from a Russian agent.

First, russians killed his mother in Mariupol, then they abducted him.

Thanks to his grandmother, who made the trek into enemy territory to retrieve him, Illia returned home.

He was one of the "lucky" ones — at least 19,500 Ukrainian children have been stolen by russia.

Russian strike on Kharkiv region killed Karyna Bakhur, 17, Ukrainian kickboxing champion.

She could have had a bright future but Russia killed her.

Deepest condolences to Karyna's family...

A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK...

78% are murdered by a partner/ex

Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this

Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety

In fact, they voted against them...

Day 1346 of my 3 day war. Pokrovsk had a pre-war population of 60,000. I've lost 120,000 casualties to capture half of it.

I remain a master strategist.

If politicians cannot honestly (without rhetorical or strawman arguments) win an argument that fptp gives most people a democratic say.

They should ditch it.

They know generations have had no meaningful say because of the constituency they live in

They know it suits parties in power not voters
Labour whining that PR will give Reform "legitimacy" is hilarious when current opinion polls give Reform the largest party in parliament on less than a third of the vote.

FPTP is a failed system that discourages democracy, I want to vote FOR a party, not AGAINST parties. Can't do that with FPTP.
So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform....

Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally.

It's time for Proportional Representation.

Worth bearing in mind as the King finally takes decisive action to untitle his brother, that he can only do so because he is the eldest.

Were it the other way round, Andrew would be King.

Such is the preposterous reality of hereditary titles.

You won't get a much better illustration of how many people in the Westminster bubble treat politics as a game without consequences than Peston barking about the growing climate of aggression toward millions of Britons like Kilroy introducing the final round of Share or Shaft.
Is the Reform MP who says she’s driven mad by TV adverts full of Black & Asian people a racist or realist? How many migrants would the Tories expel? & should the UK be selling fighter jets to Türkiye?

Protesting is a First Amendment right. No Kings is a peaceful protest in defense of democracy. Mike Johnson calling it a “hate rally” is pure disinformation He’s trying to seed violence. We see the playbook and we’ll make sure responsibility lands exactly where it belongs.

UK's Reeves should use budget to reform tax system, IFS says
British finance minister Rachel Reeves should use her budget in November to carry out a long overdue reform of the taxation system which could help her to raise more revenue while limiting the hit to the economy, a think tank said on Monday.

And yet fucking idiots still fall for it!
It's quite simple.

Very rich people are blaming immigrants and disabled people, for stealing all the money (exactly as Adolf Hitler did).

Because they are stealing all the money.

This trick is literally hundreds of years old, and it is the only one they have.
