Fun Fact: the ‘People’s Party’ spent £16k on helicopter rides and even £5k on a chauffeur for Anne Widdecombe in 2024.

2025 spend is likely more. If you donate to them, remember ‘they understand working people’.

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Everywhere you look in London it's REALLY festive this year.

I genuinely pity the "they've cancelled Christmas" lot.

President Clinton is right. This is not getting as much attnetion as it should. The USA under Trumpstein is betraying this promise, which means any agreement involving Russia and the USA is not worth the paper it’s written on 🤷‍♂️ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapes...

Michelle Mone-linked PPE Medpro wound up after order to repay £148m for faulty goods.

Company has £600,000 assets. Govt is unsecured creditor, won't recover anything.

Hard to trace money in offshore bank accounts.

Govt could sue directors for fraud, will take years, what will it recover?

Rejoining Erasmus must be the first step on a clear roadmap to a closer relationship with Europe.

We need to see the Government negotiate a bespoke UK-EU customs union, and commit to a youth mobility scheme for benefit of the next generation.

This is obscene. Why can't other politicians say that?

This is good, but it's still fiddling at the edges. We don't just want to be "closer" to Europe, we want to be back "in" it – back at the heart of the EU project! Our return is inevitable. Everyone knows it. So why prolong the pain of being out in the cold? Take the first step and apply to rejoin!

🤔 Have you spotted it yet? Trump blockading Venezuelan oil makes the world more dependent on Russian oil, and raises the price per barrel. So in effect, Trump is helping Putin again.
