Zia Yusuf is busy patting Reform’s grassroots on the head, insisting there’s no need to panic about Tory MPs parachuting in — they’ll still get first dibs on the candidate list, honest.
The only thing is, the soothing bedtime story is being told by a former Tory. 🤨👇

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

Delighted @mrjamesob.bsky.social is doing what appears a full hour monologue on Nigel Lying Farage. A joy to hear someone talking about his overt racism and of course the cover up by those professing to be journalists 👏👏👏

Funny how @zackpolanski.bsky.social suggesting a raft of policies to try and improve the lives of the vast majority is ‘fantasy economics’, but when Brexiteers were allowed to indulge their lunatic fantasies about leaving the EU it somehow became ‘The Will of the People’. 🦄🤔

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix

Tesla

Duke Energy
DISH Network

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

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.

Rachel Reeves has announced a national living wage increase.

Nigel Farage, however, recently argued that the “minimum wage is too high for younger workers.”

Watch a Clacton constituent’s shocked reaction.

She practiced that didn't she. Since the age of 7 by my reckoning.
Utterly juvenile and unparliamentary antics from Kemi Badenoch during her response to the budget.

Desperate, undignified and ineffective.

Nigel Farage went to Dulwich college which charges £55,155 a year.

He then went on to be a Stock Trader like Rishi Sunak, he has never worked a day in his life.
