Wife, mother, grandmother and probably "woke". Although I still don't get why that's an insult. Christian but not a fundamentalist.
Lived & worked in Brussels for 20 years, eight in NY. Rejoiner, anti-Brexit, anti Trump.

Just read on Twitter that the latest pollster recording high polling votes for Reform was registered at exactly the same address as Reform. They quickly tried to change their address….. caught. This is why I don’t believe the Polls. They’re rigged to make you believe Reform are popular. They’re not

Far from being a patriot, Farage is a traitor projecting Russian and American far-right influence into the UK. He has turned the UK from an independent country into a battlefield in the international kleptofascist axis' war against democracy.

God honestly. Doesn’t this just sum up Reform. And their plastic patriotism.
Can’t even give a straight answer or follow the rules on their unbelievably naff merch.
So on brand.
Oh well. You sell or wear one of these, you’ve told us all we need to know about you.

The U.S. government just banned five people from entering the country because it doesn’t like their speech. This ban, according to the State Department, is necessary to protect free speech.

If that sounds insane to you, congratulations on your reading comprehension.

Welcome to 1930s Germany!
Made me sob for a different reason. Also features an SOB, which has some kind of pun-like quality that I ought to be able to enjoy, but can’t because … Jesus f***ing Christ.
Trump is now calling the New York Times a national security threat and says they “must be dealt with and stopped.”

The White House Strategy document says that Europe faces 'civilisational erasure'.

Has anyone seen any signs of civilisation on the far-right? Looking for civilisation on the far-right is like looking for life on Mars. It hasn't been found yet.

"The narrative that Badenoch is trying to spin is nothing more than a comforting fiction that allows men in our own culture to avoid responsibility."

"It is overwhelmingly perpetrated by men who are known to the victim - partners, ex-partners, husbands, boyfriends, colleagues, classmates."
The idea of “imported” violence against women and girls is a deeply comforting fiction - one that allows people to avoid looking at where it actually happens: within our homes and behind closed doors.
The Violence Isn’t Imported. It’s Domestic.
Kemi Badenoch’s attempt to blame violence against women on migrants doesn’t just collapse under scrutiny - it actively distracts us from where the harm really happens, and who is actually responsible.

PPE Medpro has been liquidated but because it has only £0.6m only £0.6m of the £148m debt will be repaid.

A Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (POCA), placed against Michelle Mone and Doug Barrowman (worth £500m+) would allow all the money to be recovered.

Why hasn't it happened?

They insist the files will be released in the next “couple weeks.”

"If leaving the ECHR is meant to be about booting out criminals, it will have the reverse effect and it will make it easier for criminals to come to the country. Just like Brexit, it's going to backfire. Remember, with Brexit, immigration was meant to go down, and trade".
