Definitely think that recalibrating the welfare income that old people get so that there is a floor but increases will be more limited is fine and overdue. While we're here can we also abolish national insurance and stick it into income tax please.

Anyway, the good news is that you don’t need me or anyone else to tell you whether any of this is actually real. What you do is, you ignore what they say and you instead focus on what they do. And if what they do is at least close to the rhetoric, then you can conclude they’re on the level.

To all the Ireland international footballers that follow me on here: You'd be forever on the right side of history if you call the game off. And it could be a big step in ratcheting up international cultural pressure to stop the genocide and end apartheid and bring peace and justice to Palestine.

If an internationally-wanted war criminal (whose forces have killed Americans) comes to US soil, attacks Americans (including the mayor of the largest city), and then says "Remember the beepers" in reference to a terrorist attack he committed — how can that be taken as anything other than a threat?

The whole "small boats" issue is a problem created out of thin air by successive right wing governments and amplified by a racist media who don't want a single brown person in this country. It's so simple it fits in one post and I can add this sentence too.

You have to understand this: they weren’t sent any requests to take down anything. They weren’t informed of the decision itself. No law courts, no legal defence, nothing. They found out because Rubio tweeted about it.

People on Bluesky are mad about potentially being scammed out of five dollars by slaves while trying to help people again. A lot of malignancy towards not only those who ask but also for those who give. Assumptions that we don’t give in real life. You can just Not Participate and be done with it.

I am so tired of hearing about ‘scams’ on this topic. People are paying thousands to insurance & aren’t getting healthcare. Everyone is addicted to gambling because it’s everywhere. You don’t care about scams. You just don’t want to feel bad about not wanting to help. But it’s fine to not want to.

This is not a new observation, but whenever a politician is spouting some heinous fucking garbage directed at a minority group, it should trigger an immediate analysis of their finances because it's probably cover for some kind of fraud.

Step one has to be building consensus that a liveable, functional country must be paid for, and the idea you can cut your way out of that with deliberate vandalism is both deranged and incredibly destructive: cutting things that work just means expensively replacing them with things that don’t work.
