Wtf is wrong with people? We're all immigrants, descendants of immigrants.
Most decent British people used to be proud to live in such a wonderfully multi cultural place.
UK needs immigrants. MSM, Farage do know this, but again, his toxicity is dividing Britain.
Let's deport him, keep immigrants.

So true, yet we're all immigrants or descendants of immigrants.

Calling English a 'rip-off degree' is one of the most blatant exhibitions of personal barbarism I've ever seen. You've demonstrated nothing but the poverty of your own mind.

I was with @mrjamesob.bsky.social until Badenoch launched into her speech praising the people who broke Britain with Brexit, austerity and privatisation.
An apology for their 5 incompetent Tory PMS in 14 years? No. They were just warm up for her, Kemi.
Such a spiteful, tone deaf speech.
Fxxk off.

And the patron saint of Palestine. He was a Christian martyr, of Turkish, Palestinian heritage, and a Roman soldier who never visited England. 🙄

So, the plan is to cut English, the arts, and sociology - the degrees that actually study culture - while on another part of your platform claiming to “defend” British culture.

It’s performance nationalism with a reading age of seven.

Badenoch: Curb students taking 'rip-off' degrees such as English
The performing arts, sociology and anthropology are among the subjects the Conservatives would like to cut

Plenary Authority: "In USA constitutional law, plenary power is a power granted to a body or person in absolute terms, with no review or limitations upon the exercise of that power. It divests all other bodies & is not subject to judicial review. AKA its authoritarian NOT democratic power.

Brexit British cakeism brought to you by the same people who believe that Britannia *waives* the rules. Madness.

Once again, the Telegraph seems shocked that the EU is acting like… the EU.

This is exactly what sovereignty looks like when you’re on the outside.

Ruthless EU has just taught Starmer a painful lesson
Steel tariff threats are a reminder of how Brussels really feels towards post-Brexit Britain

💯 about a tragedy, the punishment that hurts us all.
But it was an advisory referendum.
The *win* vote to leave wasn't huge + lots of lies were told.
Same liars who wanted Brexit now say they're the saviours, aided by complicit r/wing MSM with selective memories.
Brexit broke 🇬🇧 Never trust Farage

I left when Musk bought it and immediately fired the talented people who built the successful social media platform he coveted.
His toxicity has trashed Twitter.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

“You described Reform and other parties across Europe today as among the 'right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s'. Why?”

“Because that’s what they are”

📞 Chris Mason, all r/wing MSM.
Reform UK MPs are liars. Who needs to know?

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there!
He wasn't there again today,
I wish, I wish he'd go away!

A Farage free 🇬🇧 is a happier, healthier place.
