I grew up within the sound of the Lymington lifeboat. Having an issue with what they do is a form of moral insanity.

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

So, if I understand Nigel Farage's argument correctly it is: "Everyone I trusted and elevated into a position of responsibility is constantly doing crimes that benefit me but of which I somehow have no knowledge. I am a man with the character, judgement, and intelligence to run the country." Ok.

For all the emphasis on young people not in education, employment or training, the proportion of NEET youngsters is currently just below the 25-year average Not saying more shouldn't be done (and it's long been neglected) but recent breathless coverage suggests its a new problem or at record levels

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Don't worry about Data Centers. Don't worry about Climate Change. Don't worry about Mass Surveillance. Don't worry about Billionaires becoming Trillionaires. Worry about immigration, imaginary invasions and pensioners and people on benefits being too rich. That's the lie they expect you to swallow
