In America, 1 in 3 women of reproductive age live in a state with an abortion ban in effect.

Donald Trump is the architect of this health care crisis.

Spare a thought for poor Count Binface this Thursday. Years spent establishing himself as a joke candidate for London mayor, and then the Tories run Susan Hall.

What a strange time we live in.. When a Nobel prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz has to point out to the Tories and Labour that public investment, increasing the power of workers and a healthy NHS are the only way for the UK economy to grow!

'Thames swimming race cancelled over sewage fears.'

It's been going since 1890 and now it's cancelled.

I'm being serious. Do the boards of Ofwat and the Environment Agency have absolutely no self-awareness at all?

It's time for change. It's time to go.

Reminds me of trying to see road traffic safety signs eg change in speed limit in especially but not only councils which are broke & have, it seems, decreased payment to their gardening contractors: Austerity, which had opposite effect from intended, still rules George Osborne ?

Boris Johnson was turned away from a polling station for forgetting voter ID under rules he introduced

staff initially turned him away as he only had an envelope with his name and address on it, according to a source

The absolute state of this lot

Govt spokesperson cheerily telling us that voter ID works, saying that at last year’s elections ‘99.75% of people were able to cast their vote successfully.’ That means 0.25% weren’t, which may sound small, but in an average general election that’s 200,000 voters.

Thanks everyone, Rishi Sunak is crying and refusing to get changed out of his pyjamas. I hope you're happy with yourselves. #LocalElections

It’s a cult.

Please share. Elon has set the algorithm in such a way that my tweets (amongst many others that do not align with his world view) are hardly seen, irrespective of “followers”.

When your voter suppression rebounds to hit you in the face.
(Locally it was almost exclusively the elderly who were turned away because of this ludicrous gerrymandering- Tories have managed to punch themselves in the face)

1. Many Jews are not Zionists

2. Many Zionists are not Jews

3. A central aim of Israel’s propaganda efforts is to convince people that to criticise Israel is to be antisemitic. THIS IS A PERNICIOUS LIE

Of course, the weirder course of events would be if a man who is obsessed with publicity, who is surrounded by advisors telling him what to do and people who tell him where he needs to be and when, actually did forget his ID.

General election anyone? bbc.com/news/articles/…

MWAHAHAHAAH

“This week, I shall mostly be forgetting my Photo ID”

Tactical voting works #ToriesOut

Woke up after couple hours kip. Thought I'd check how things are going. I don't need to look any further.... 😂

in 2019 people elected the village idiot because they thought he was funny
