If trump is unhappy then Zalensky did the right thing. Anything trump is happy with is clearly the wrong thing to do.

If only they would do the same for the social media and news companies facilitating and pushing the spread of this hate.

Their pay rises should be pegged to the average pay rise of the lowest 20% of the country, or something similar. Basically you get a pay rise if you make life better for the poorest.

Great being on the anti-fascist march today followed by house against hate in Trafalgar square.

If they have that level of awareness, then why the F do they do it? They clearly know it is illegal. WTF!

Shouldn't that be Rafeal Cruz? Surely, as a Republican, he doesn't believe in chosen names.

Shouldn't that be Rafeal? You know, to kepp in line with the wishes of his party. He should be called by his birth name and not his chosen name.

Whilst this is a welcome move, please ask yourself, "What would Mitch do?" Yes, you are the minority leader, but then again so was Mitch and yet he exercised more power than any Dem has. He was willing to jam up the works to get what he wanted. Time for you to do the same. Be the sand in the gears!

That is assuming you will have free and fair elections in the midterms. Watching what is unfolding in the USA from across the pond, I wouldn't be confident that will happen.

However, you will vote to hand your balls to a wannabe dictator though. You will vote to gut medicare and medicaid. You will vote to abdicate your responsibility and hand control to Trump and Elon.

They control all three branches of government. Don't help them destroy social security and the VA and all the other programs they are gutting in this CR. Do not appease them or collaborate with them. Make them solely responsible for the pain they will cause.

If only Labour would take the lesson from this that they can tax richer people more and that their threats and predictions of doom are empty.

Surely the second part of that question is who could they replace her with? The entire party seems detached from reality, lost in a right wing echo chamber. Who would be any better?

15 days into the new, as claimed by both the Labour and Tory governments, “easier” excise system. Now the reality is nobody in my industry thinks it’s easier, in fact quite the opposite. Its added complexity and cost to a system that worked well previously. But still media refuses to report on it.

Submitted. Removing GB News from the airwaves is not censorship. The poeple behind it are free to continue their 'free spewch'. Free speach does not mean consequence free speach and it does not mean a guaranteed platform. They are not silenced. The are free to blog, vlog or whatever.

Starmer is well aware of what needs to be done. Here is what he said when voting for Johnson's UK-EU deal. Services "a gaping hole", "lack of ambition", "Imperfect", "thin", "a basis to build on". Share, to show the PM that you back him going further and faster to improve our deal with the EU. ~AA

🔥 This. “Labour cannot simply manage the status quo. To defeat Mr Farage’s sham politics, it must offer more than technocratic governance. Without a compelling vision, including one for Britain’s place in Europe, it risks being outflanked” Perfectly put in @theguardian.com

💥 NEW: Labour voters are *84%* for a youth mobility scheme... ...with only 6% against. What's to lose? In fact, they might even gain some of those 59% of Conservatives and 34% of Reform that support it too.
YouGov table showing support for youth mobility scheme. 34% strongly support, 33% tend to support, 7% tend to oppose, 10% strongly oppose.
