Excellent news. The bully boy has been held to account at last.

There is still hope for the world, when you meet an #Airedale called Bremner ☺️ #lufc

Might start a petition to get him a full refund from Yale.

Three-quarters of the responses to the 2023 UK govt consultation on the tobacco and vapes bill were machine-generated. 90,835 of the 118,756 responses were by bots. Corporations have a new tool for subverting polices and public opinion; to increase profits, spread addiction, health hazards.

Perhaps Nigel Farage should change the name to 'Reform Thailand' or 'Reform Monaco' or 'Reform Dubai' or just 'Reform Tax Haven for the Super-Rich' "80% of Reform UK donations come from sources recently based overseas" morningstaronline.co.uk/article/80-r...

Apart from Reform and the Tories… Jenrick cannot *ever* be honest about freedom of movement. He was a Tory immigration minister who oversaw a record high in net migration and who voted Remain in 2016. His whole political career is built on scheming bullshit. www.independent.co.uk/voices/andy-...

Trump harbouring a criminal? Who'd have thought www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cq... US says it will issue visa to Flávio Bolsonaro as Brazilian authorities question his whereabouts

Trump has now been rejected by more rock stars than a backstage groupie with a contagious disease.

So Farage thinks that Brexit has been a success and that we're "standing taller in the world"!!! He's as demented as his orange boyfriend.

If there are Choc Hobnobs in the house, I'll eat the lot in one sitting. So the last time I bought a pack was 3 years ago. They cost £1. Yesterday, in the same shop: £2.50. Inflation is 5% Not 150% Should cost £1.16 Not £2.50 Sometimes you lose sight of just how badly you're being ripped off.

By all accounts this is what most of the recent Reform media events have looked like. Bubble well and truly burst

Remembering one of British comedy’s most iconic sketches — with JOHN CLEESE — 87 Candles 🎂 today — RONNIE’s BARKER & CORBETT (co-written by MARTY FELDMAN). THE CLASS SKETCH (1966)

“Is this the right room for an argument?" MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS (1972) 87 Candles 🎂 today for comedy great JOHN CLEESE.

“The Dead Parrot” AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT (1971) 87 Candles 🎂 today for comedy great JOHN CLEESE.

“I don't believe this story. Doesn't make sense.” ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN (1976) For my money the greatest Political-Thriller ever made and one of my favourite movies of all time. #JohnMcMartin #JasonRobards #JackWarden #AlanJPakula

Such inner strength and #ethical courage www.bbc.co.uk/sport/americ...

A slowly-dying Far Right party.

Jenrick has set out how Reform would maximise our “Brexit freedoms”. And this is their list. This is the very best they can come up with. “Re-legalise imperial units” It’s truly pathetic that this is the pinnacle of their Brexit fever dream. And that anyone would still back this ruinous idiocy…
