Can someone please explain why it is that too many politicians only seem to want the votes of the prejudiced and the ignorant? To the extent that they are actively repelling anyone capable of rational thought and decency. Why the pathetic need to appease the bigot vote, at everyone else’s expense?

Farage is an absent MP, earning a fortune from side grifts. His ‘party’ is in hock to fossil fuel donors. He’s pro Trump, pro austerity (DOGE) and his ‘policies’ are nothing more than ugly populist hogwash that have done real damage to our country.
Would that be so hard to point out #bbclaurak?

Remember when she (illegally) went on "holiday" to Israel to make a deal with the IDF to fund illegal occupation of Palestinian territory using the UK aid budget.
She is an Israeli asset.

“Priti Vacant has no memory of what happened yesterday, let alone 22 yrs ago. If she did, she might be aware of what can happen when a UK govt tries to hedge its bets on legal advice before going to war in the Middle East.”

Shadow foreign secretary. What a joke.

Reform “sends Musk-style DOGE unit” to Kent County Council…

Meanwhile, America starts to count the terrible cost of Musk and DOGE and arrogantly burning it all down without thinking or caring about the consequences.

Trump can surround himself with statues of history’s statesmen but it will never make him one.

A petulant orange fool in a baseball cap, lashing out at opponents, betraying his country’s allies and helping Putin in his murderous plans for Ukraine.

An international disgrace.

An epically disgraceful press conference from Vance and Trump with a beleaguered and entirely dignified Zelensky. Vance and Trump shouting at him about gratitude and telling him he’s in a weak position.
Fuckawful entitled bullies making a holy show of themselves and their country on the world stage.

Granting people refugee status but not allowing them citizenship. Come on Labour, make that make sense.

Imagine doing this - harming people’s lives - to impress the bigot vote. But failing anyway.
What a shameful abdication of responsibility and decency.

“Trump’s Gaza takeover plan faces global condemnation”

But not from Badenoch, Patel..
Or Farage who said
“The thought of a wealthy, thriving place with well-paid jobs, casinos, nightlife sounds very appealing to me”

Not a drop of integrity or responsibility between them. Forever unfit for office.

Isn’t this cosy? Badenoch and the pompous Clarkson foghorn having a fireside chat about how the Tories will help tax-dodging wealthy landowners like him.

God knows what she thinks her own govt did to *all* our communities, including rural ones.
Or to the public services that our taxes pay for.
