It’s a shame no one pointed out the Tories removed NHS bursaries for new nursing, midwifery, and allied health students in 2017.
'It's not normal!' Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch asks why 'we cannot staff the NHS with home-grown people?'

Australian kids ALREADY learn about this. As someone who went to school in Australia, I learned about this, as well as horrors closer to home, which is sensible. Cambodia, Rwanda, etc. And atrocities committed against First Nations Peoples. This is not new
Australian students will be learn about antisemitism & the horrors of the Holocaust from next year as part of a new national curriculum. By the same standards, the curriculum should cover the genocide occurring in their lifetime - the Genocide In Palestine abc.net.au/news/2026-11-05/e… #FreePalestine #auspol

Jeffries and Schumer bear responsibility for the astonishing passivity of Congressional Democrats in the last two years. They could have organized local and state resistance efforts to rescue programs killed by DOGE and Trump, to keep scientific research alive, to organize universities, law firms, media, and corporations to resist Trump's intimidation. They could have held press conferences and posted videos every single day to call out Trump's corruption and present an alternative vision for the country. Chris Murphy did it, others did it. But not the leaders. We will have no presidential candidate for 18 months. The task of presenting a vision that will lead America back from the darkness will fall to these two men. I wish I felt more confident they are up to the task. nytimes.com/2026/11/04/us/po…

Letting Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, and Nancy Pelosi back in charge is like signing up for Trump 3.0. These three are famous for being Israel first, corporate bought, and insider trading. Which is why we got what we got in 2024.

Pritzker: "The rising cost of everything at the grocery store and gas pump, all of that, JD was out there promoting. And he was out actually sticking for Vivek Ramaswamy's terrible ad attacking a woman who had been raped when she was 12 years old. He has a lot to answer for. I don't think he can run from what he's been, which has been a MAGA loyalist and bootlicker for Donald Trump."

Millions of dollars worth of food grown in illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank has been shipped to Australia labelled as “produce of Israel”, a new analysis of trade data has shown. #auspol theguardian.com/australia-ne…

Is @UKLabour and @andyburnham going to do anything about the scourge of fascism and frankly, frightening ethnonationalism that is sweeping this country? 👇
Restore's growth has been unusually rapid in British politics - going from a fringe movement to a significant impact at the polls in less than two years. Sky's @Chesh investigates Restore Britain campaigners' links to white nationalist and ethnonationalist views

Impeachment and removal is not optional It’s the law . It’s the duty of the congress to enforce the law

Call me crazy but I don't think it's a good idea to make someone Speaker of the House if they do things like have secret meetings with Kushner (a literal traitor that paid a hitman to kill a journalist) to plan how our country can serve Israel. Especially considering the rebuke of pro-Israel candidates that gave us the majority to begin with.....

The Dems are truly fucked if Schumer and Jeffries are at the helm. What is this nonsense their spouting?!?!?!

72-year-olds didn't stare down ICE officers armed to the hilt for you to say shit like this
Hakeem Jeffries on Morning Joe: The American people don't want us to get even. They want us to get things done on their behalf because life is way too expensive. We ran on affordability, we won on affordability, and now it's our job to govern on affordability.

Chuck Schumer needs to go. Bloody hell. No more of the same. What is this @TheDemocrats . You guys just got one of the biggest wins and want to piss it away with Schumer and Jeffries. Total joke.
HELL NO. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? If Schumer thinks Trump is someone Dems can work with after all the pain, suffering, and even death he’s caused, he’s delusional. We want accountability and an end to his corruption. Not more weakness. QUESTION: How are you going to deal with Trump? Can you actually work with Trump? CHUCK SCHUMER: Look, it’ll be up to him.

Are these assholes seriously going to let things slide? We're not even a few days from the midterms. What the fuck. Jeffries and Schumer have to go.
“🇺🇸 people don't want us to get even, they want us to get things done…” Who’s gonna tell @RepJeffries holding crooks accountable isn’t about “getting even”, it’s about preserving our democracy? Is this what he talked about with Kushner? @TheDemocrats don’t blow this

People losing their minds because they are so dumb lmao
BREAKING: Abdul El-Sayed is expected to require ALL Michigan Elementary school students to learn ARABIC numerals. As a Jewish American I still support this 100%.

Totally delusional.
Trump, in his first public appearance since last night’s Republican wipeout: “It’s going to be the most beautiful ballroom anywhere in the world.”
