The Illuminati is very real, we call them billionaires, just 5,000 of them own 20% of everything, and it is all the most important stuff.

They are responsible for everything but they get you to blame immigrants or woke or trans or rich pensioners.

'Listen to me as I come to your neighbourhood and tell your trans siblings they are subhuman or I will use the wealth of billionaires to sue you into oblivion,' is a very late-capitalism form of free speech right.
Total gaslighting. Anti-trans activist; chooses to speak in person, provoking students who want to protect trans rights; they exercise their freedom of speech to tell her she isn't wanted; she gets to speak anyway; the BBC dutifully platforms her again; and now she threatens to sue everyone.

His Daily Mail rantings are just love letters to his own ego. His little England fanbase is all he has left. He is the mascot for everything that’s rotten in our politics. And his legacy is a nation-diminishing disgrace.

I’m as happy & relieved as the next pro European & British patriot to rejoin the Erasmus scheme, this will help our disadvantaged young people.

However, this has cost us £200m. A scheme we were already in, a scheme we could’ve stayed in?

Boris Johnson’s destruction.

He should be in prison.

It’s exactly this kind of dismal, prejudiced bollox from the Daily Mail that’s got us into the ruinous Brexit mess we’re in. What a moronic response to us rejoining Erasmus and all the benefits that brings. If they’re really worried about cost, they should push to cancel Brexit altogether.

The “Trade Barriers” in question are food safety regulations and taxation to the tune of 2% on digital services from massive US tech giants - tech giants that make billions from UK consumers anyway.

This is a blatant shakedown.

Good morning lovely phone family. I hope you're all well. I'm full of festive spirit this year, but I've had many where that wasn't the case. If you're struggling, please remember it's ok to not be joining in. If you need support or someone to talk to, this may help (UK) 🙏

Trump doesn't honour agreements. It's about dominance.

Demands that UK ends digital services tax on US tech companies and it's food safety rules which bar certain US agricultural products.

The traitor United States is demanding that Ukraine hand over the Donbas region to Russia during the Berlin “negotiations.” According to the German foreign ministry the US is coordinating with Russia. The Donbas region is militarily essential for Russia to launch a 3rd invasion.

Point 1: Obviously it is evil to massacre civilians for being Jewish.

Point 2: Obviously Israel's genocidal atrocities must continue to be opposed, and will continue to be opposed.

Today the worst people in the world are trying to pretend Point 1 and Point 2 are contradictory.

Just an observation… but if Farage *was not* now a racist - genuinely… then he would really want to make up for the hurt he caused as a schoolboy bully. Definitely not make it worse.
Instead, he’s angry and accusing. So, he is racist. And raging with anyone who says so. Or thinks that’s a problem.

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.
