"The politicians basically serve the rich, the wealthy, and their self-interest." Listen to this man in Nigel Farage's constituency.

Could someone please explain moderation lists and what it means if you have been added to one? Many thanks.

It's Schrödingers outrage, isn't it. If "I can't teach in a school because I'd fuck the kids" was a joke told by a drag queen, they'd be demanding they were crucified in a telephone pole but because it's One Of Them it's actually the height of edgy humour and the woke left can't stand that.

🗣️ PM @andy-burnham.bsky.social: "Britain’s prisons crisis has its roots in a failure to add sufficient new places between 2010 and 2024. Just 500 places were added and 23 prisons were closed. As a result, the system is now dangerously close to capacity and we are running the risk of...

What more fitting way to remember Rod Liddle’s life and work than by making nasty jokes about someone who can’t answer back

Yes I think that's the point Andrew is broadly making - if I understand correctly, he's advocating for closer EU alignment now and acknowledging that support for full EU membership would require building acceptance of Schengen and the Euro.

Fair assessment. The Shoah used as excuse to support liebenstraum. The well educated have no sense of irony. Entitlement is a hell of a thing. Lessons forgotten because they're "owed". The ancestors would be ashamed.

The scientist who discovered insulin gave it to the world, but in America - supposedly the greatest nation on earth - an entire family can become bankrupt for want of it, and people die, unable to afford it. And they call it the land of the free.

Nigel Farage (2016), "It's legitimate to say.. If people feel that voting doesn't change anything" "Then violence is the next step"

What has happened to ReformUK today? Not a single post on Facebook about the election in Manchester, but the usual number of anti-government posts? Are they hoping that if they ignore it their supporters won’t notice the utter beating that is coming their way?

Why is the American government having to upgrade a personal gift that was given to Trump from Qatar? The American government has Air Force 1 . This was given to Trump for his own use after his term, he should pay for the changes.

Mr Snodes comes out of the traps with his best post. Where to go from here?

It’s basic politics pr like starting your set with your second best song and finishing with the best. Starmer’s opening number of Winter Fuel Cuts was like coming on at the O2 and launching into the 8 minute dub and death metal b-side of a single you haven’t released yet.

Boris sharing articles referring to Ed Miliband as the worst possible choice for Foreign Secretary. A reminder that when Johnson was foreign sec he was busted getting a blow-job under his desk, had Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe jailed in Iran & got drunk & "accidentally" attended a KGB house party

Chris Bryant is the new Northern Ireland Secretary. I understand it’s a bit like being sent to Coventry landing that role, but I think he will do an excellent job, and that his sense of fairness will be just right for the role .

How the buggery bollocks has Lisa Nandy kept her job? Is it the north west connection?

Absolutely. Civic groups and political parties have already started the conversation and published policy papers, but without Irish Government planning, nothing will progress, but I absolutely agree on consultation with the NI public.

They're just in time for an annual event, the Changing of the Prime Minister.

And when reality catches up with impunity it never ends well. I would love to see Nazzi Farridge confined to the bin and then confined behind prison bars.

@carolecadwalla.bsky.social for @thenerve.news: "If you’re wondering why Reform was dumb enough to accept donations from the mother of a money-laundering crypto expert and convicted criminal, it’s because the lack of any serious scrutiny of Farage created a sense of impunity"

So Count Binface is pledging to do everything Farage doesn’t as a MP, utter genius❗️👌🏼 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 He will👇🏼 Hold weekly constituency surgeries✅ Answer all letters and emails within 3 days✅ Spend 10 days in Clacton for every day spent abroad✅ Outside earnings will be donated to Clacton charities✅

Count Binface goes for the jugular with Clacton pledges

Count Binface seems to have already stolen a march on Nigel Farage in the Clacton by-election by announcing some policies for the area.

I am proud to say that Marsha is my MP. Although she is a Labour MP she is not afraid to criticise the government where she thinks it is deserved. She is also severely visually impaired, and campaigns for people with disabilities. So if she is enthusiastic about this fund then it must be good.

This is fantastic news for disabled people right across the country. For too long, talented people have been shut out of work not because they lack ability, but because the system around them hasn't let them in. A £60 million Pathways to Work Innovation Fund that puts bold, innovative ideas (1/3)

news.sky.com/story/uk-wor... UK needs to get real and ban all trade with Israel. The genocide is Israeli government policy. American hands are also covered in blood, the poison of Israel is spreading throughout the Middle East with the support and assistance of Trumps America.

Having previously stopped short of endorsing a ban, the trade minister said there is a "very strong" moral and legal argument for such a prohibition.

This is chaotic and enjoyable at sane time. Bravo.

This is the night sky at 11.30 in Kintyre m, with the Atlantic Ocean and the inner Hebrides. If you zoom in you will see the paps (breasts) of Jura.

Absolutely fantastic quote yesterday by Ed Davey: “We take elections seriously, so I can’t back a joke candidate with ridiculous policies, so I hope Count Binface beats him.” Bravo sir! 🤣👏👏👏
