I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

Matthew Amroliwala (BBC News): Prison overcrowding is an issue successive governments have been trying to find a solution to. You mean the Starmer government? And the Sunak government, which released 10,083 people early and called an election when it was looking really difficult?

If you add in £130m losses on “Reform TV” (aka GB News) the effective subsidy of Farage’s party from just four men tops £200m. You just have to join the dots app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/75017/...

Reform is the richest party in Britain. Its leaders are almost all millionaires. It is funded almost exclusively by billionaires. It has a supportive TV station and widespread media backing. So naturally, this donation comes with the usual attack on "elites". www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Odd that the police turn up in large numbers to arrest ordinary people as terrorists, yet here we have them 'engaging' with masked thugs blocking a major port wearing balaclavas and no arrests made. We're closer to the last days of Weimar than people think.
