People have to do jail time. Powerful people, who thought they were untouchable. They have to be arrested, tried, stripped of assets relating to their crimes, and sent to jail. Because if it doesn't happen, it will prove to voters that democracy is a sham. And then we're seriously fucked.

Trump sued the BBC for editing one of his speeches. It makes you wonder why he's not suing people for directly, openly stating that he's a rapist and a paedophile.

Braverman is one of the most repulsive politicians out there. Vicious, fascistic, useless, without principle, loyalty or *any* actual genuine success to her name. Just cheating, lying, letting people down and delivering failure. No wonder she feels she’s “come home” to Reform. It’s a perfect fit.

“Farage had an uneasy end to the year” Where “uneasy” = exposed as racist with corrupt/traitorous links to Russia and useless at running councils. But no worries. They’ll just join forces with the failed Tories to “end the left wing tyranny.” They can all go to hell. (Sunday Times)
Josh Glancy
If support for Reform has hit a peak, a Tory pact looks a lot less distant

Photo of Farage

Extracts:

Another danger for Reform is tactical voting and the left uniting to keep Farage out, which is what happened in the Senedd by-election in Caerphilly two months ago..

Put all these factors together and it’s no surprise that there is speculation once again in Westminster about a Reform-Tory pact. If Reform has hit a plateau and can’t get there alone, what about uniting the right by teaming up with the rump of the Tory party? If Farage and Badenoch can’t get along — the pair have barely met and share a mutual antipathy — then perhaps a more Reform-friendly Tory leader, likely Robert Jenrick, could do a deal to ensure an end to left-wing tyranny?

Farage had an uneasy end to the year 
Such an arrangement could take many forms, from an explicit deal not to compete across the board to a quiet, implicit, “gloves-off” agreement in key seats.

Publicly, of course, both sides reject this suggestion — to do otherwise would be to admit their own limitations. Farage has called the idea “ludicrous” and insists his party will “swallow” the Tories, not join with them. Grubby deals with the hated Tories would dull Reform’s insurgent sheen.






Privately, however, the conversation has a different tone. This month the Financial Times reported that Farage had told donors he expected an election deal to happen (a story he later described as “fake”). Many Tory MPs also privately admit that some form of deal may be their only path to power.


“If Tory MPs are faced with a choice of going into coalition with Reform as a moderating force in government, or Britain being governed by some kind of rainbow alliance of the left, they will obviously choose power over five more years in the wilderness,” says the Tory source. “They can be as high-minded as they want in opposition, but if the opportunity arose they would jump at it.”

Rob Reiner directed some of the most beloved movies of all time, including Stand By Me, This is Spinal Tap, and The Princess Bride. His production company also made movies like The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise and Michael Clayton. The film industry has lost one of its titans.

“Racism has become thoroughly detached from “serious” politics” It has been reduced to language. So, instead of fearing accusations of racism, politicians now exploit them as petty, name-calling distractions from what really matters. It’s an ugly, cynical deceit. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The main story on BBC 6 Music News this morning is that a ‘boat carrying migrants is on its way to France’ Delivered in the same upbeat tone as England winning the women’s Euros. The migration ‘debate’ in this country is unmoored from reality, and the media-political complex is feeding it

I think the basic problem with the news at the moment, everywhere, is that someone's pub opinion becomes the headline, becomes the story, and a lot of the time, that's not a headline, it's not a story, and it's debatable whether most of that stuff's in the public interest anyway.

Isn't it crazy how a racist comment at a football match now means widespread condemnation, police action and probably a lifetime ban for the perp whereas racist bile now pours, unchecked and unchallenged, out of news broadcasts and the mouths of mainstream politicians on all sides?

Throughout history women have died in childbirth, died through illegal, unsafe abortions, or been left with children they are unable to care for when abandoned by feckless men. Unless you ever find yourself potentially in such a situation, you have no understanding. No one needs your shitty takes.
