I'm a history loving lefty in the UK who will do what it takes to rid our country of the far right. I also love my cat Boudicca and I'm a suicide survivor.

This Labour government could have responded to the genocide in Gaza in so many ways, instead they cut aid. This is a dereliction of duty.

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

Trump, you raped a 13-year old girl. To protect you, your CONSIGLIERI, mob lawyer Todd Blanche, is covering up the evidence. But you and other kiddie rapers like you WILL go to prison, sir. And you know what happens to kiddie rapers in prison, sir?

Even if you're not a hardcore Greenie, electing Zack Polanski would make UK politics more healthy because he would help to hold Andy Burnham's government to account. His influence from the periphery has already improved Labour policies. The Commons needs Polanski, so please help him to get elected.

So, Banksy bought a used yacht, repaired it and retrofitted it to serve as a rescue boat to save migrants in the central Mediterranean. The whole project cost the artist $860,000. Since 2020, the boat has saved more than 3,800 people. londondaily.com/banksy-funds...

All day Piddington's womminfolk have been telling news how they will be terrified of "hundreds of young men nearby, free to come and go as they please." NOT ONE JOURNALIST has asked: "How did you cope when it was an army base? Who came and went then? Nuns?" Soon as you ask that, all becomes clear.
