Welsh Tory David T.C.* Davies is 100% convinced the Nastiz can win the next General Election. I can sleep with Brigitte Bardot; the probability I will is vanishingly low.
Typical Tory, he rants against the Welsh Labour government for building no new roads in Wales and for trying to enforce a 20mph speed limit replacing the urban default of 30mph.
I don't share political views with the conservatives on the SCOTUS, but I was under the shameful misapprehension that they were not unintelligent men, that they were capable of rational thought.
But I was wrong. Because not a single one of them managed to figure out that a President who is immune from prosecution for assassinating a political rival cannot possibly HAVE a congress who might impeach him. Do they imagine congresspersons do not fear death? #SCOTUS

In its death throes, this UK government is being run like failing YouTube Channel; 24 Hour Churn of instantly forgettable sound bites, culture war clickbaiting, policy-free posturing.

I was talking to my Argentinian cousin about their newly elected president.
He’d been in politics for 4 years, and gone into it with a lot of energy and principles he wanted to see carried out.
He realised after four years that the only people left around him with the ambitious ones.
With no principles.
Just ambition.
That is where we are.
When you reach the bottom of the barrel, those types start beating it like a drum, to summon their imaginary army. 😞
This was built back in the day when the lord of the manor could convince the village idiots he was wonderful by taking an extra shilling off them and giving them a penny back. It was a roaring success, they even built this column to his honour. Now, of course, the village idiots can communicate via the internet and worship the lords of the manor muchly morey and be even more stupid and put them in charge of the whole bloody country.
Just in case anyone thought that the "Cost Of Living Crisis" was a crisis for everyone, this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-68776913 It is a deliberately engineered transfer of wealth and power towards the already rich and powerful and drive more people into poverty and servitude. #ToriesOut#Fascists
If anyone should be criminalised for causing a public pong it should not be the homeless - it should be the bosses of the privatised water companies who are filling the Untied Kingdom's rivers, lakes and coastal waters with our shit...
“A revolution in the way Britain does politics has begun in Devon. Tory MPs should be afraid”
by George Monbiot in the Guardian @TheGuardian_uk
“This is what democracy looks like: hundreds of people queueing in the rain, seeking to take back control of a political system that treats voters like an afterthought. Last weekend, a remarkable democratic experiment reached its first conclusion. A process that began here in South Devon and is now spreading to other constituencies has allowed voters to reclaim the initiative from centralised and self-interested political parties. It directly confronts our unfair electoral system.”
Seems @kayeadams thinks the Tories are a distinct race or ethnic minority. She compares the slogans of competing political parties with Nazi genocide!!
Sadly, she is supporting a party that condones genocide in Gaza and advocates deportations of "undesirables" to the camps.
Is it morally wrong to offer £3000 to failed asylum seekers to be transported to Rwanda instead of being a continuing burden on the public purse? asks this failed government and #LBC's Tom Swarbrick.
Yet another false dichotomy from Rishi Sunak's Nastiz: if refugees cannot be returned home because their safety would be at risk, why not allow them to work here, filling long-standing vacancies and paying taxes.
