Entire country is on its arse, Minority groups are under attack by a new wave of Nazism, your Bills are going up 25%, but all you get, is wall to wall "Antisemitism" & how criticism of Israel is somehow worse than The genocide they're guilty of.
Aren't you all fucking tired?!

Unemployment is at a low level in Britain. Incapacity support has increased partly due to the Covid pandemic, and partly because the retirement age was raised - meaning there are more disabled elderly people of 'working age'.

Britain is now living with levels of worklessness that would once have been treated as a national emergency. Yet because so much of it is now recorded as incapacity rather than unemployment, we have gradually come to accept it as a fact of life. dailymail.com/news/article-1…
That cannot continue. We need a new generation of welfare reform that restores opportunity, breaks the cycle of dependency and helps people back into work.

An empty building burns down in France and there is non-stop front page news, global outrage, wall to wall coverage, etc.
A school full of children are incinerated alive in Gaza and not even a single report about it.
This is why the western decline will continue.
mon lycée est 2 fois plus vieux que cette mairie pourtant personne n'a parlé de ses 45°C par salle lors du bac et de ses fenêtres qui attendent un remplacement depuis 10 ans que la région ne nous a toujours pas donné. Un monument devient important que quand il brule apparemment

Most people in France can't afford housing.
They didn't blame immigrants, or transgender people, or video games, or avocado toast.
They blame the government. Because that's who's responsible. That's always who's responsible.

Donald Trump was 43 when his wife gave a deposition under oath that he ripped hair from her scalp and sexually assaulted her in 1989.
She also described a physically abusive marriage.
Donald Trump was 46 when Jill Harth accused him of sexual assault at Mar-a-Lago in 1992.
Donald Trump was 51 when he bragged about watching Miss Teen USA contestants change their clothes on Howard Stern.
Donald Trump was 57 when he chose NOT to file a police report after being informed Jeffrey Epstein had attempted to solicit a spa worker for sex in 2003.

"If you're Jewish or non-Jewish, please, let the world know:
Thousands of Orthodox Jews lined up in London to oppose Zionism while chanting “Israeli Government Shame On You!”
Our voice is silenced that’s why you don’t hear from us, but NOT because it’s not there.
Torah Observant Jews understand the dangers of Israel’s false claims of representing Jews and are pushing back strongly!
Help us get our voice heard!

Disney and DreamWorks are churning out CGI sequels every year, while animators at LAIKA spent 11 years in an Oregon warehouse hand-weaving tiny coats for puppets to make Wildwood
LAIKA’s last movie lost nearly $75 million in 2019 and any other studio would have pivoted to cheap animation.
God bless Nike founder Phil Knight for funding his son’s stop-motion passion project so we can get actual hand-crafted cinema.

In his conference speech, Andy Burnham said that crude cuts to welfare are not the Labour way. That we need to invest in people and their success.
He’s right.
This should mark a reset in our approach to welfare, including to benefits for disabled people.
I recently signed @NeilForPoole’s letter calling for Labour to protect the living standards of disabled people by rejecting poverty-inducing cuts.
This is an opportunity to show disabled people who’s side we’re on. A return to the Labour way.

Burnham didn't mention screwing pensioners when posing as man of the people.
Britain's £12,547 state pension is less than half the minimum wage and well below the EU average. Many rely entirely on it.
If Burnham scraps the triple lock, young people face poverty in retirement.

Comparison of state pension in G7 shows that the UK state pension is the least generous.
Countries have wide variance in how retirement incomes are funded and how returns are calculated.
Purists might want more nuanced data but this is what we have.

This is an extraordinary story of extortion and hypocrisy.
The U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle — a close Trump ally and former fiancée of Donald Trump Jr. — admitted that the United States helped bring down governments that stood in its way.
During a private dinner in Athens, while discussing the collapse of Romania’s government, Guilfoyle said: “We can do this to any country we want. We can do it here too.”
The Greek energy minister pushed back, saying the United States cannot simply replace a government elected by the people.
Guilfoyle insisted that they have already done this in Romania.
On March 31, Guilfoyle met privately in Bucharest with senior Romanian Social Democratic officials. The discussion included the Vertical Gas Corridor and energy cooperation.
Weeks later, the Social Democrats joined the pro-russian AUR party in a no-confidence vote that brought down Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan’s government. Bolojan had resisted a proposed arrangement involving expensive U.S. gas imports.
So, according to Guilfoyle, Trump administration engineered the collapse of Romania’s government in a clear extortion attempt. And to do so, they have collaborated with a far left party - the communists as MAGA calls them.
Anyone who still has any illusion that MAGA is a “conservative movement” needs a serious reality check.

Bank of England (BOE) governor says soaring energy prices could trigger interest rate rise.
Forces people to hand wealth to banks, boost their profits for no reason.
How about curbing profiteering, supply-chain problems, taxing those with surplus cash?
