The review from the UK 👇

A pro-Palestine protester is arrested for holding a poster reading "l oppose genocide I support Palestine Action" Over 3,500 arrests have been made since Palestine Action was labeled a "terrorist organization" by the UK.

(🧵|🚨) BREAKING: *Three years* ago PROOF ran a long, well-sourced report confirming that Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu *knew* from Middle Eastern “grand bargain” co-conspirators that the October 7 attack was coming before it came—and let Israelis die for political gain. Now Haaretz has confirmed it.

I guess the line "I'll be dictator from day one" had already been used.

Nigel Farage’s promise of extreme authoritarian govt. Scum of the earth.

Birthday Boy! Seamus is 13 today.

I'm guessing that didn't come up in Kuenssberg's interview with Farage?

Is Farage now saying he was listening enough to know this overseas donation would look bad and at enough of the details to say with certainty no laws were broken...All I'm hearing is bullshit www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Farage says overseas donation row ‘looks bad’ but denies Reform broke law

Robert Jenrick says party has followed legal protocol ‘at all times’ as Met police consider launching investigation

Visiting older relatives yesterday. One a former union rep showed me this off BBC teletext. Not our BBC... it belongs to Reform.

My New Course Now Available: "How To Perfect The 'I'm Not Listening' Look" Featuring top tips and video demonstrations! Only £500, payable in Bitcoin via my Uncle's bank account.

If no other picture survives Reform UK conference this year, let it be this one. It is a teachable moment. #ReformAssault #Fascism

That’s Farages mentality.

Richard Tice gives a helpful demonstration of how he wants the army to march when Reform are in power.

Tonight's tipple, home made damson (from the garden) gin. Cheers!

Good morning silly sods of Wülferhampton, happy #Caturday

Norway's Prime Minister ripped apart trumps stupid letter. Love this! Every leader receiving a letter like this from TACO, should do the same. Thanks for your attention to this matter! ============================

That's exactly what the country needs. A Prime Minister who can't be bothered to listen to what people are saying to him when it involves a potential crime. Has he heard himself?

Farage says he was there but "wasn't even listening" to discussions about substantial, dodgy donations to Reform. What was he listening to instead? Wrong answers only.

Farage "I was there but wasn't listening to an offer to fill Reform Party coffers when we are skint and British people who can legitimately donate won't because we're actually not that popular" 😂😅😂😂🤣😅😂😅 ribs aching 😂😂😂😅🤣 on the floor😂🤣🤣🤣😆😂🤣😂🤣please send oxygen🤣😅😂😂🤣🤣😆😂🤣😅🤣🤣😂😅😂😂🤣🤣😅😅🤣😂can't breathe🤣🤣😂😅

Seems like Farage gets an intense grilling from Laura Kuenssberg in her show tomorrow. Hearing reports he inadvertently let slip his favourite colour after coming under sustained pressure.

In case anyone was confused about how to spot a terrorist 👇

Dr Anke Marsh@ankemarsh.bsky.social · 6d ago

Just so we are clear: The 83yo priest on the left is a terrorist. The balaclava-clad men on the right are protestors with legitimate concerns

Tories weren't appointed to top BBC jobs for nothing the British Establishment know that controlling the message and allowing no hint of #TaxTheRich #BlameMillionairesNotMigrants #WelfareNotWarfare UK arms manufactruing profits put before black/brown lives on our screens keeps their jobs safe

The difference between being called a protester and a terrorist seems to boil down to fashion choices, avoiding arrest protesting the genocide in Gaza just needs a wardrobe change to all black and balaclavas.....yes?

Russ Jones@russincheshire.bsky.social · 6d ago

If only there was some famous tale about the futility of being a Cnut who stands on the shore and shouts orders at the sea. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

*Distressing Footage* Share widely with a trigger warning. This is the real Farage, a psychopath, revelling in violence, without an ounce of compassion for this woman's suffering. Instead he laughs at her, encourages the audience to mock her protest and blames her for being assaulted.

Dave Vetter@davidrvetter.bsky.social · 7d ago

Content warning: Multiple men violently assault a female protester at Reform's conference at the Birmingham NEC, to the visible delight of Nigel Farage.

Let me get this right: if you're a retired vicar and peacefully hold up a sign opposing genocide, you're a terrorist. But if 1200 morons put on balaclavas and close half of Dover to stop people *escaping* genocide, police "constructively engage." Is that it? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Black-clad protesters in balaclavas block road at port of Dover in Kent

Traffic on A20 in and out of port grinds to halt as Kent police say they are in attendance and engaging with group

Who are the terrorists: rickety old pensioners waving placards against genocide, or balaclava wearing gangs of men in black blocking roads and intimidating the vulnerable? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Farage is getting increasingly desperate, keep rattling that cage.

Damning silence from Labour on their Napoleon III exhumation policy

We need to call this out for what it is - animal abuse.
