Accused? She confessed to doing so. news.sky.com/story/tory-v...
the list of what israelis consider 'antisemitism' is constantly growing and has rendered it a meaningless term its pretty pathetic you are still clinging to these accusations
It seems relevant to ask why it is said to be important to leave the ECHR. I can get to ‘so we can abuse the rights of asylum seekers’; or ‘so we can abuse the rights of immigrants’; or ‘so we can abuse everybody’s rights’. Not the most attractive proposition.
😂😂👇🏼 When a pig ignorant, right wing, racist thug tries to intimidate local Muslims with a Union Jack on their Mosque.. And they turn it back on him showing they’re real patriots not Farage, Lowe, Robinson supporting #PlasticPatriots It’s time to make #BravoOurBritishMuslims trend✊🏼✊🏼
Either that or he is setting out to demonstrate that he is not the wunderkind as he likes to present himself. Clearly not intending to shape his opinions on easily researched facts as any half decent Engineer or Scientist would.
"The narrative around October 7 often overlooks the deep-rooted history of the Israel-Palestine conflict. This timeline reveals key events dating back to 1897, when the First Zionist Congress was held, through the Nakba in 1948, and decades of subsequent violence." youtu.be/LzOQ-vhF7Hg?...

Sad that political convenience might result in such a case being dropped.

IANAL but, as I recall, "... adhering to the sovereign's enemies, giving them aid or comfort; and attempting to undermine the lawfully established line of succession ..." is high treason. Would this apply to Farage in these circumstances?
The West are not just doing nothing to end the crimes of Israel in Palestine - that would be bad enough - but in fact they are actively supporting those crimes through trade and arms relationships with Israel.
Also the subject of a worthy read. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...

They have also got rid of many who would have acted as a moderating influence. The consequence is that the Overton window has become narrower and much further to the right within the Labour Party.
Procedural Concerns There are questions about how NHS England "signed a contract that isn't even finished" and then continued negotiating afterward, which raises procedural questions about proper contract execution.
The second comment alone should be enough to disqualify him and his company from any UK government contracts as being incompatible with UK policies and ethos.
We’re going up at a rate of 700 signatures an hour currently. In the time it took me to boil the kettle it went up by 50. Keep the message in minds folks. Fair coverage is what we want so we hear from ALL parties not just the narrative of one. Sign and pass on petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...
“They looked like grotesques from a Roald Dahl book. Shrivelled, pinched faces, every bit as nasty as they sounded.” This week: vandalised takeaways, racist pensioners, and the privilege of being a 6’3 white immigrant.
Does anyone with the technical expertise know if this blight affects LibreWolf?
"Hopefully" is not a scientific approach.
Liberals: “We could try to DO some things to reduce gun violence; ‘thoughts and prayers’ isn’t enough.” Republicans: “Outrage! Disgrace! They’re attacking prayer.” There’s no need to be polite or defensive in response to this. Invoking faith as an excuse to shun responsibility deserves no respect.
Sometimes.
Lessons from History that Starmer would be well-advised to learn. You don't meet despotic leadership half-way. If you do, they'll identify you as a fellow-traveller & use you as a stepping-stone for their own ambitions. For the whole of August, Farage has made Starmer look like a weakling PM.
Do explain what his plan is.
“That is what led us to the moment of moral collapse. It was not the Farage speech. It was not even the press coverage of the Farage speech. It was Labour's response to it” Nail on bloody head!👏👏👇👇
Angry at insinuations that judges who granted or overturned Epping injunction were politically biased. I've known both Cons & Lab lawyers who've become judges. Whatever their previous politics they take seriously their judicial oath to do justice without fear or favour
Gradual Expansion Rather than one large, headline-grabbing contract, Palantir has built its UK presence incrementally across multiple years and departments, making the cumulative effect less obvious to casual observers.
Nigel Farage has, inevitably, said that this ruling means “Illegal migrants have more rights than the British people under Starmer”. The court’s short summary makes it explicit in two separate places that didn’t even enter into its reasoning, which centred on criteria for injunction.
Performative politics again? Similar announcements have been made before but the oil pipeline from Turkey to Israel continued to flow. The pipeline seems to be absent from the scope of this announcement. www.al-monitor.com/originals/20...
Unconscionable.

Indeed. The "evangelist" who persuaded me was in the latter group.
Clearly he is not even capable of carrying out the most basic search online on what benefits an asylum seeker can expect from UK government. www.gov.uk/asylum-suppo...
All men 50+ should be demanding a PSA test. I had a friend who became something of an evangelist about getting tested and persuaded me to do so. I got tested and fortunately found out I have a fairly restrained form. I will die with it not of it. www.cancerresearchuk.org/health-profe... JFDI
And emphasises how utterly inconsequential Ofcom is.
Let’s clear up some facts. There is no such thing as an “illegal immigrant”. The UK DOES NOT grant asylum visas overseas, except for very limited schemes (except large schemes for Ukraine and Hong Kong).Refugees can only claim for asylum when in the UK. So their fate can only be decided, once here.
Reform Party aim to abolish all human rights "No-one will be safe"
... and Starmer's UK keeps arming Israel presumably because it wants Israel to kill more babies, children, women ... meme via David Dwyer
And so the BBC continues to breach terms of Charter with impunity.
Farage wants Britain out of the ECHR and the Refugee Convention, tearing up protections and deporting thousands to danger. Leaving would be cruel, isolate the UK, and wreck our ability to rebuild a positive relationship with Europe. This must be rejected.
If it was a technical legal term, surely indubitably would be the more likely response. 😉
Nothing unusual about that.
Sounds remarkably like socialism to me.
Quite a juxtaposition wearing a Hi-Viz waistcoat over combat fatigues. It gave me my best laugh this morning.
Can we have lessons for all the adults too?
It is our duty to defend human rights www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/08... Farage is going to announce his plan to end human rights in the UK this morning. We should all be profoundly worried.
Promoting a single limited company that purports to act as a political party, without any balancing perspective, seems to be a primary breach of clauses 3. (1), 5., 6.(1), 6. (4), 6. (5), 10. (2), 14. (1)-(4), of the BBC Charter. downloads.bbc.co.uk/bbctrust/ass... #BBC_Charter_breach?

How about the strange case of Pope Formosus, who was disinterred 7 months after his burial to face trial?
Clearly, she has decided to adopt the Trump strategy of descending into puerile insult of a standard that would be appropriate in a junior school playground. Presumably, she has no ambition to be considered a statesman,
Farage leaving the ECHR would take away YOUR right to ... 🔥 A fair trial 🔥 Fair laws 🔥 Protection from execution 🔥 Protection from discrimination 🔥 Protection from torture 🔥 Protection from slavery 🔥 Freedom of speech 🔥 Freedom of lifestyle 🔥 Freedom to decide if you want or don't want children
Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?
Eight months? Someone has really not been paying attention.
Now, Labour fast-tracks secondary legislation via delegated powers, dodging parliamentary debate, public consultation, and Press conferences.
A word on immigration. Don't prejudge this, just listen to the data, and then consider what the solution is. The UK has a falling birth rate. This means that - unless things change - each generation will be 25% smaller than the one before.
Please repost…tks
Somebody ask Starmer this question please, These numpties painting red paint on other people's property without permission, is that a terrorist act like it was for Palestine Action? Enquiring minds want to know
Thanks for the "heads-up".
Hi Brettuu, Below 👇 is a petition for deep (status-quo breaking) reform of the UN and its “Security” Council, which could well be of interest to you/others: www.change.org/ReformTheUni...
More insidious americanisation of the English language? In the recent past, it would have been described as "released without charge".
The UN is failing in it's primary objective of peace. My understanding is that there is a protocol that enables the General Assembly to override any veto raised in the Security Council and raise peace keeping forces. JFDI
They had the opportunity to experience innovations like roast acorns as a substitute for coffee and other ersatz ingredients.
Statutory paternity is 2 weeks after the baby is born. Men have little choice but to work more while women deal with children. Which reinforces the mother>father dynamic and perpetuates the cycle. That and men are often treated (and act) as adjuncts rather than parents.
As "independent" as my arse!
It is up to us to reign in Trump’s authoritarian regime when it oversteps its place. It is good to see that France is not scared to do just that. www.france24.com/en/americas/...
If you don't love Nigel Farage give this a Like. If you hate him, give it a RT.
But no comment from @greenparty.org.uk about the part Brexit played in creating this mess and what the Green Party would do ‘specifically’ and ‘urgently’ to undo it.
63% of people think net migration rose in the last 12 months 8% of people think it fell Yet it fell by 400,000 in 2024 vs 2023 [It is falling further in 2025] Public service broadcasters are doing a core part of their job on this topic badly if that 8% is not closer to 30% at least
What the Norwegians think about Trump's desperate quest for the Norwegian-sponsored Nobel Peace Prize, which makes him sound more and more like Gollum from the Lord of the Rings every day. Where are the fires of Mount Doom when you need them?
Is it taxed as a benefit in kind?

What @theguardian.com is ignoring is that Birmingham is host to 39 deregulated free zones that create the illusion of addressing municipal finance problems while actually being irrelevant to them. Special economic zones have proven to be a policy distraction. Thread theguardian.com/uk-news/arti...
Blair burning the party ties to socialism had alot to do with that as well.
... and Starmer. His "island of strangers" speech was seen by many as tacit government support for the re-emergence of racism.
Britain isn’t being “overrun” by migration — it’s being sustained by it. The Bear argues politicians on all sides owe voters honesty about this simple fact.
Canada is investigating all its Canadian citizens who have returned from serving with the IDF in Gaza. It is time every other country did the same.
Seems like "giving comfort to a foreign power" to me.
With insight and acute clarity, @bearlypolitics.co.uk articulates how interconnected our history and identity truly are and that the real crisis lies not in migration, but in the erosion of honesty. eastangliabylines.co.uk/opinion/brit...
Clearly they must like paying the idiot tax demanded by Microsoft.
Long overdue considering that officially Open Document Format was adopted in 2011. Had governments moved quickly to adopt open source software (the sector in which ODF was developed) there would not have been the farcical political shenanigans from Microsoft trying to impose their own version.
Who is pulling her strings? What are the sources of the necessary funding?
😡😡😡
How much additional money will transfer to private companies, individuals or foreign governments, from the NHS budget, as a direct result of policies implemented since Labour became the incumbent government? Seems a reasonable question to ask.
Seems a bizarre defence to assert that whilst operating in the UK, even though based in US, somehow gives the organisation exceptional privilege to operate without being subject to UK law.

Israeli newspaper makes a series of virtual tours through Gaza's hospitals and finds starvation everywhere. "What we saw there left no room for doubt about the scale of the horror." archive.ph/szHRS
fundamentally the problem is that if you think "hotels are where I stay on holiday and I like being on holiday so living in a hotel must be fun and it's not fair others get to do it and not me" then you have the intellectual reasoning of a little child and it's going to be hard to engage with you
We are founder members of the ICC. The USA is not a member. This is an unwarranted external attack on an institution of which we are important members. It requires a response.
And that went so well when it was implemented under the Blair administration, with hospitals paying significant chunks of their budget to service the debt.
Norway did not choose to use the "North Sea Oil Bonanza" as a war chest to emasculate unions as Thatcher did. Norway saw the wisdom of investing those funds for the benefit of their population.
"legitimate concerns" is the new "I'm not racist but.." britain & america need more Jonathan Millers.
