So Trump attacks Iran and completely f*cks up oils supplies through the Straits of Hormuz giving us all high petrol prices He’s now gone and secured oil from Venezuela for America meaning he can lower petrol prices for Americans Thanks Donald Cnut 😡

Ask Tees Valley Mayor Ben Houchen? He’s allowed £100ms to enrich local businessmen; money that could have been invested in the local community to perhaps prevent some of this?

To all those gullible people who think Farage and Reform have the answers to our Country’s problems, remember, the last time a charismatic “man of the people” told his Country their problems were due to minorities, this was the result

Have they given up picking on illegal immigrants and now chosen another group to attack and use as a distraction for the hard of thinking? Meanwhile the rich get richer ….

After being scared witless on Friday evening with a fatuous Emergency Alert (don’t light a bbq in these hot dry conditions 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️) I wonder how many, like me, have opted out of Government emergency alerts? What are they going to tell me next? Bears 💩 in the Woods? 🤷‍♀️

R4 Today - Another police officer being investigated for sexual attacks against women they visited as part of their duties Seems to me that women are safer sharing a toilet with a trans woman than reporting a burglary to the police 🤷‍♀️

To “punish” us for not joining his war in Iran, Trump has raised the issue of the Falklands The Argentinians, buoyed on by this are waking up How long are we just going to sit back and let him humiliate us?

I voted Labour for 2 reasons:- - I was sick of working people being made to pay “for austerity” and they promised to make those who could afford it, pay a bit more - I was fed up of all the political shenanigans of the Tories Labour promised to do both things better When are Labour going to it?

Trump attacked Iran with no consultation & no clear idea what the end game was It’s now developed into a fiasco with 20% of the World’s energy stuck due to Iran (foreseeably) blocking the Strait of Hormuz Now he’s demanding NATO dig him out of this mess because US gas prices have risen F Off Own it

Europe can issue as many statements of support for Greenland and Denmark as they like They mean F*** all. If Trump wants it, he’ll take it The only way to force the issue is for ALL European NATO countries to put a combined military force in Greenland “on exercise” until he’s out of Office

Excellent overview of the Good Law Project vs EHRC legal case. It makes it clear that the EHRC - pushed by a few ‘gender critical’ transphobes at board level - has gone rogue… Even the Equalities Minister seems to be recognising it now!

Equalities Minister tears apart logic of EHRC’s “trans-exclusive” guidance in High Court
The EHRC was irresponsible in rushing out "overly simplistic" and "transphobic guidance", the High Court has heard

Lots of attachments.

Yesterday, Parliament, led by Sir Ed Davey (not our invisible Prime Minister, Keir Who?), defeated the racist Farage who tried to take us out of the ECHR A monumental moment on the back of the Caerphilly defeat for Reform Today’s lead story on R4 Today - Rachael Reeves renting out her flat FFS BBC 😡
