If anything encapsulates how far we’ve been dragged down by the Tories over the past 14 years, it’s the line “enjoy the tap water Bradley”. What an achievement to gloat about on the eve of an election! #GeneralElections2024 #GE2024 #GTTO

My little brother asked me why everything suddenly seems so fucked - and this is about as simple an answer as I could give.

Well, this thug should be pretty easy to ID ... More of the 'Just Hard Working Law Abiding People With Genuine Concerns" etc.

“Ordinary people with legitimate concerns”

In case you are confused: NOT far right: 📣worried about immigration 📣pro-Brexit 📣angry about awful murders DEFINITELY far right: 💥Hate people on the basis of their race/identity 💥Use the murder of kids to attack Muslims& immigrants 💥Justify thugs attacking police

’It is offensive to the working class to suggest rioters represent ordinary people.’ ‘It’s usually middle-class commentators who suggest they do!’ @Lewis_Goodall criticises politicians who hijack ‘legitimate’ working class concerns and claim to speak for the entire country.

If you see an issue with the language being used to describe these riots as “far right” then I’m sure you can channel some of that faux outrage towards condemning some of the language used by the rioters themselves

The idea that going against the grain in itself is a virtue is very flawed. If 9 out of 10 people agree drinking bleach is bad, you’re not a free thinker by drinking bleach, you’re a fucking dumbass.

Since 1 Jan 2024, Elon Musk has made at least 50 serious false claims on this platform, and these were read more than 1 billion times. Financial Times He is the most serious threat to democracy out there. ft.com/content/bdd100…

Liz Truss Elon Musk X You’re mixing up free speech with breaking the law by inciting violence. Free speech is more along the lines of me saying ‘you are a brainless dimwit who shouldn’t have been put in charge of a chip shop, never mind a fucking country’.

Despite overwhelming evidence of Israeli war crimes, the UK government continues to export weapons to Israel. End this complicity. Immediately suspend all arms sales.

A pretty damning first five years of Brexit, quantified here rather neatly.
