When Suella Braverman lays her hateful anti refugee bill in parliament today, she’ll say refugees should take legal routes, or we will wash our hands of them. When she does, think of Yosra, a 52 female Afghan judge, refused safe travel to the UK. #r4today independent.co.uk/news/world/mid…

A river of boiling shit flows through your town. You haven’t seen a tomato for 18 months. MOTD is 3 minutes long and narrated by a parakeet. Your salary is paid directly to British Gas. You solve a riddle to speak to a GP. You feel people come here because they want an easy life

Just a guess. If you agree with Gary Lineker, you... Didn't vote for Brexit Are not a racist Possibly not a tory Disapprove of Boris Johnson Don't like to see human suffering Don't watch GBNews Want the BBC free of tory governance Would very much like a #GeneralElectionNow

Great article about #Highstreets from Dan Thompson It’s Not The Internet, It’s You open.substack.com/pub/danthompso…

I don’t speak of this often but listening to Nigel Farage in tonight’s debate I must. My dad was an immigrant. From the moment he arrived in this country he worked hard every day in labouring jobs. My most vivid recollection is of his tired & weary eyes and oil stained overalls

Nigel Farage is in Blackpool today. And after a long night, so is this.

Clacton girl says it as she sees it. Fagash Farage offers Clacton nothing.

Nigel Farage held public office once: Worst attendance of 745 MEPs, missing 60% of votes Attended 1 of 42 fishing committee meetings Fined £35K for misuse of expenses If you want a work-shy, self obsessed grifter #VoteReform if not #VoteLabour #GeneralElections2024 #Clacton

This is excellent 🤣🤣🤣

Leaving this X cesspit of hate. If you want to follow me (I don't assume anyone does) I'm on threads under the same name. ta
