Meanwhile Robin Ince genuinely has been cancelled for daring to voice his opinions and for defending trans people.
Where's the outrage from the "cancel culture" lot?

Hi Nigel Farage you just said “I didn’t wear a mask last time and I won’t wear them this time. This is nonsense.”
Here you are, not only wearing a mask, but also getting vaccinated.

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.

Farage is speaking at Venue Cymru tonight.
Last revamped in 2018 with £1.8 million of EU development money and another £1 million in business development cash.
Original development also received significant EU funding.
Farage, by contrast, will give Llandudno nothing but hot air and lies.

Absolutely this.
Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

Looks like the "removal of statues etc is erasing history" folks are actually into doing those removals if the history being erased is the history of black people
Here are the two plaques that were removed. I am so ashamed of our racist current administration.

The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country.

Just found out that the “carbon footprint” concept came from an advertising firm working for BP to promote the idea that it’s not the fault of oil giants, but individuals. From 2016 to 2022, 80% of global carbon dioxide emissions were produced by 57 companies: www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/s...

Trump ordered a show of force on Oct 18th, directing the military to fire rockets over a California highway to intimidate US civilians. A rocket malfunctioned & detonated, damaging JD Vance’s security detail. Governor @gavinnewsom.bsky.social's decision to close the highway saved lives.
