Just in case no one knows the UK doesn't have a record number of people on benefits, in fact we have higher employment than France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Finland and many more. It's all just a lie for the billionaires to blame poor people for their mess.

Richard Madeley compared Palestine to Nazi Germany, and then said that all the children killed were collateral damage of an essential invasion. RT if him and his hideous views need to be banned from UK TV. (Richard Madeley in October 2023.)

Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @london.gov.uk · 18/02/2025
This afternoon I met with Mayor of Kyiv Vitali Klitschko. I reiterated that London stands with the people of his great city. The UK will continue to support Ukraine to defend its security and sovereignty. There can be no negotiations on the future of Ukraine without Ukraine.

Tyranny is spreading its long shadow, again, over Kashmir. Interesting how the West does not make a sound of disapproval - yet another case of turning a blind eye on repression when practised by its allies www.aljazeera.com/gallery/2025...

"There will come a moment where the West has to say to Donald Trump, sorry, you're just spouting what Putin thinks, and we can't allow this to happen." But when will that be? articles.globalplayer.com/2GXqC8zftyQ7...

A Youth mobility scheme will foster cultural exchange, build trust between nations & help to rebuild a UK-EU relationship that will drive economic growth & bolster security - isn’t that exactly what the Labour government pledged to do in its manifesto? youtu.be/1y2RbbUg06c?...

A UK-EU Youth Mobility Scheme is NOT a return to freedom of movement. These are the FACTS

The US deep state has been detrimental to democracy (think mega donors), press freedom (think Julian Assange), Peace (think countless wars). BUT Trump is not dismantling it for these reasons. He is simply removing all obstacles to his own dictatorship chrishedges.substack.com/p/the-purge-...

The Purge of the Deep State and the Road to Dictatorship
Donald Trump’s dismantling of the deep state presages the formation of something far worse.

The MTA sues the Trump administration: "The Trump Administration’s efforts to 'terminate' Congestion Pricing are unlawful." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
18. The Trump Administration's efforts to "terminate" Congestion Pricing are
unlawful.
19. Neither the VPPP Agreement nor applicable law or regulations permit FHWA to
unilaterally terminate the VPPP Agreement. This makes good sense. If FHWA had the right to unilaterally terminate a VPPP program that had already been approved and implemented, it would create uncertainty around the future of such programs any time leadership at FHWA, USDOT, or the White House changed uncertainty that may make it difficult to issue bonds for other projects and would clearly undermine the purposes of the VPPP.
20. Defendants also provided no basis for FHWA's abrupt reversal of its position on the Program, despite having reaffirmed the FONSI and approved the Program only a few months prior. And, in stark contrast to the nearly four-year process that led to FHWA's VPPP approval, Defendants purported to take this agency action in a matter of less than two months, and despite having conducted no NEPA review of the effects on the environment from ceasing tolling and reintroducing tens of thousands of additional vehicular trips into the CBD daily, as well as from termination of the EJ mitigation committed to as part of the Program and to be funded through
Program revenue.

Donald Trump is calling himself the King of the USA. I bet he is so stupid that he doesn't know what the Revolution in 1776 was about.

At the end of the day, it's very simple. Trump and his oligarch friends want to cut programs that working class people rely on, and give huge tax breaks to the very rich

A lil tip for the folks with shoe polish on their lips today :)
Excerpt from Timothy Snyder's "On Tyranny:" 

"1. Do not obey in advance."

"Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do."
