Because Trump thinks she’s royalty and an important member of his Royal Court? He’s acting like an Emperor. Says he IS the law. Doesn’t have to obey court orders; or obtain permits for his monuments; or Congressional approval to drop bombs, levy tariffs, etc… and no one is stopping him!

Andrew Neil, "The big problem we face is 6.7 million adults of working, who aren't working, and living on out of work benefits" #BBCQT

My view: Only 71,000 are actually on Jobseeker’s Allowance.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy.

The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

Remember this.

These figures shld be of real concern. Tommo was 'giving commentary to a live stream audience of more than 15,000 people'
That's 15k people encouraging endangerment to life.

They are examining the video 🤦🏽‍♂️

If this was someone peacefully holding a cardboard sign saying 'I support Palestine Action' they would have their door put in.

This is why fascist scum like him do this, because they get away with it.

He need taken off the streets.

I'm not a lawyer, but if you intentionally attempt to sink a boat with humans on board, how is that not attempted murder?

Endangering another during a journey by sea; criminal damage; carrying an offensive weapon; possession of a bladed article; conduct endangering ships or individuals; unlawfully and intentionally destroying a ship breaching section 11 of the aviation and maritime security act;
There are so many crimes in this thread you have to wonder what the police and Home Secretary think they are doing at this point.
Worrying scenes in the Channel today, for all interested in asylum policy and maritime tactics.

A small boat from Normandy spent more than 30 hours at sea. Those on board now on their 2nd rescue vessel as Border Force forced to play cat and mouse with far-right activists who have their own boat.

Jim Ratcliffe, tax-dodging Brexiter billionaire living in Monaco, says the poorest and most vulnerable should have their rights & benefits removed to bolster our economy.
Don’t bother telling us this rancid man’s opinions unless you say how much he’s avoided in tax and what Brexit is costing us all.

And they’re not illegal. Under international law they’re entitled to travel to the country where they plan to claim asylum. They’re only illegal if they’re refused and they don’t leave.

Everything is a real estate deal for these people. History, culture, nationhood are meaningless concepts to them. Kill as many Palestinians as you can, evict the rest and build a tacky beach resort. Who cares if these territories have been Ukrainian for hundreds of years, 2/

Andy Burnham ‘plans to refuse interview and article requests’ from The Sun over the Hillsborough hurt.

Good on him.

Its infamous front page blamed Liverpool football fans for the Hillsborough tragedy.

Now watch the Murdoch empire turn its guns on Burnham

This would certainly be a bold stance, it's understood that Andy Burnham is planning to 'grant no special favours' to The Sun newspaper.

What neoliberalism did to the UK.

25.3m people, including 14.9m working adults and 7.7m children, live below minimum income standard.

Richest 1% has more wealth than the bottom 70% of the population combined.

50 families hold more wealth than 34m people.

Can't grow economy on mass poverty.

Everyone still using X is using a website that produces and distributes CSAM. It is disgusting and immoral and nobody has any excuse for not being fully aware at this point.
Over six months, we tracked the appearance of child sexual abuse material on X. We found images from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's database, which is considered one of the most highly vetted and which many tech companies block on upload. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/11/t...

You're probably never going to get in the same room as him again. Seize the opportunity. And stand up and defend your colleagues when he gets abusive, especially if they're women because we've seen how he treats female journalists. He's on our turf now, don't put up with his shit.
