👆👆 I hope RG is currently experiencing indigestion. He should be drummed out of the BBC and if the current government sincerely intended to actually win the next election (rather than just handing the gig off to Nige) they would have already made that happen.

If you’re reading this from overseas and thinking about coming to the US for the World Cup, stay home. It’s not safe here.

ICE is going to be trolling around these places. They’ll be under orders to harass anybody who isn’t white and at least third generation Americans.

Seriously. Don’t come.

He needs to check the facts (much of the necessary data is freely available online from reliable sources) before making assertions.

You really think that the technocrats are going to let their "technical/mechanical slaves" fund a life of leisure for the working class when it could be producing more profits for themselves?

Alternatively, WTF should the taxpayer subsidise the profits of companies that have an execrable business model?
