Here's the message: Trump is terrorizing our communities with a campaign of inhumane un-American ICE brutality - and he's paying for it by raising health premiums on 20 million Americans. Effective because it's 💯 true.

We can’t forget that Trump once called members of our military "suckers" & "losers.” So, let’s be honest: he’s attempting to use our military as his personal political pawns and believes they owe loyalty to him and not to our Constitution and our country.

Morning all. You know, not so long ago I would have said that apparent media/BBC bias was just because their reports differed from my own political convictions. But since the Tories lost that GE it has become a blatant fact that the right wing msm is deliberately aiming to undermine this govt.

BBC coverage of Reform is becoming increasingly problematic. And goes beyond the usual white noise. Continuous soft balling is not balance, it is a fundamental abdication of duty. Farage's tax issues, cranks given platforms at their conference, climate change denial. All need coverage. Most haven't.

If you spend just 5 mins researching Nigel Farage's partner Laure Ferrari you will suddenly see clearly how much the media chooses to ignore the big stories for political gain. For a start no one seems to be asking where an unemployed former waitress found £900k to buy a house outright in Clacton

I heard today that the ‘small boats crisis’ was actually *caused* by Nigel Farage and Brexit. That before Brexit we had sufficient influence in the EU and could negotiate with France. The growth in numbers is linked to changes since Brexit. Farage is the *cause* not the solution.
