71% used at least one negative term, with the most common being "racist" and "liar"

Now ask yourself…
Where’s the equivalent draft Bill for the NHS?
For social care?
For housing?
For schools?
For policing?
For the cost-of-living crisis? 3/9

The trail of lies and corruption is growing larger by the day.
Liars get caught out. Then they lie some more to cover it up.
But eventually it becomes so difficult to remember where it began … it all falls apart.

The fact is, Reform & “hitler was right” Farage get a pass the Greens don’t as they’re no threat to power & privilege.
The Greens represent a real threat: they want to make the rich pay up so the rest can have a decent life. That’s the threat that requires such transparent double standards.

I think the sooner we reframe our expectations around the fact that we live in a consequence free world, the better.
Particularly in the UK. Especially in politics.
Long gone are the days of the Nolan Principles of Public Life.
We're barrelling towards a Mad Max style country where rules don't apply any longer.
Societal breakdown led from the top.
Nigel Farage spends more time in the USA shilling for cash and Trump, than doing his 'public service' job. Only to pop up in our feeds and media every day, lobbing grenades at the country he was elected to serve.
Consequences — zero.
A pet peeve of mine is driving respect. I spend more time avoiding speeding lunatics than relaxed driving now.
Consequences for them — zero.
Our media, similar to Farage, spends more capital and man-hours on attacking its own government than reporting the news. They prop up the wealthy and moral free. Fabricate lies constantly.
Consequences — zero.
Social media and big tech are actively working to manipulate our very consciousness by spreading disinformation that is never fact-checked. They allow graphic media to be propagated unabated.
Consequences — less than zero — they are rewarded by the very government put in place to protect us.
We're actually already living in a dystopian era, but most don't see it because we're told to focus inward on ourselves, become more selfish — by the tech billionaires.
If we start to understand the world around us, then we might be able to make some changes that are so necessary but, until the return of consequences for actions … we're stuck.
Sorry for the moan, I didn't sleep much, and it may have crept out in this post! 😆

BBC World Service compiled evidence on 160 cases of children shot in Gaza by the IDF.
It found that in 95 cases (60%) the child was shot in the head or heart.
In most cases the victim was under 12.
Targeted murder of young children by Israel.

An official petition calling for a public inquiry into pro-Israel influence on politics & democracy has been growing rapidly.
The petition is nearing 10,000 signatures at the time of this post, where by the government will be forced to respond.
The reasoning behind the petition expresses “concern” behind reported Israeli state-linked pro-Israel lobbying activity in UK politics.
“We feel that the horrific devastation in Gaza, the ongoing suppression of Palestinians in the West Bank, and the UK’s political response underline the urgent need to scrutinise how pro-Israel organisations, networks, and lobbying efforts may shape government decisions, party policy, and public debate.”

Because the billionaire owners of our media would benefit from a Farage government that demonises & punishes foreigners while letting the rich off any accountability or paying a fair share of tax.

Andrew Saberton (@UNFPA) after his visit to #Gaza/#WestBank: "I was not fully prepared for what I saw. One can't be. The sheer extent of the devastation looked like the set of a dystopian film. Unfortunately, it is not fiction. There is no other way to put it: Gaza has been flattened. Mile upon mile of rubble and dust with few buildings left intact. This is not collateral damage, and I cannot unsee what I have seen." Later adds: "There is no normal birth in Gaza now. Women cannot get access to a hospital. They often don't even have access to a private space in a tent. We have stories of women giving birth actually in the rubble, beside the road."

Zack Polanski, "Reform UK's Zia Yusuf was full of b*llocks and I think it was important to call that out on #BBCQT"
"What has become clear about Reform UK, they're a bunch of cowards"
"Ever since Thursday night Reform UK have repeatedly attacked me online, including an interview with Piers Morgan"
"Piers Morgan is combative, but I don't think anybody can watch that interview and not conclude he comes across as anything other than silly and ridiculous"
"It's just constant culture war nonsense"
"Also when I mentioned Nathan Gill I thought I might lose the audience as many will not have known who he was"
"It's a real national scandal"
"Nathan Gill is guilty of 8 charges of bribery, of being a Russian asset, was clearly a confident, a friend of Nigel Farage"
"When Zia Yusuf was asked about him he said Nigel Farage doesn't know him"
"Nathan Gill was an MEP with Nigel Farage, he was a leader of Reform UK in Wales"
"Instead of dealing with the allegation, they have gone on culture war stuff"
