Populism (aka Fascism) is securing power by telling people:
- the lies they desperately want to believe
- what they should fear
- whom they should hate
- how much they owe the leaders for the salvation to come.
It always ends in human destruction. The only question is how much.

My daughter is one of the many who spend most of their working lives travelling, nationally and internationally.
She has a real job, not just posting shite and claiming to be a journalist.
Postal voting is essential for such people if they are to exercise their right to vote.
A key part of the Hester story seems lost among the racism and misogyny.
His firm wins ยฃ135m in NHS contracts. He then donates ยฃ10m to the Tories (from taxed income?)
How obscenely high are his profit margins?
What competitive tender process was applied (if any are left now)?
Four senior Tory MPs, Truss, Braverman, Jenrick and Anderson, have made Islamophobic speeches this week.
Truss has also called for the destruction of our democratic institutions at an extremist gathering in the US.
Sunak must expel them now if he has any worth as a party leader.
@Jacob_Rees_Mogg
Steady on, people. Heโs not suggesting it be taken back into public ownership and regulated properly as a public service. He wants it readied up for sale to funds like his.
If that happens, we will still have shite in our rivers and reservoirs.
@AdamBienkov
Iโm so bored with this Rayner story.
I couldnโt care less where she and her husband lived.
What I do know is that the paltry amount of tax possibly involved would be swallowed up by the annual CGT free allowance that then applied.

Trump sees this as a win-win. If they jail him, the cult will claim him as a martyr. If they donโt, they look weak and heโll get worse.
Can NY courts impose a daily fine for contempt until he withdraws it and apologises?
A modest fine - say $10m a day - might shut him up

Now I have a dilemma.
Do I watch C4 for proper coverage?
Or do I watch BBC1 just to see Kuenssbergโs growing grimace as the Tory losses mount?

Iโm sceptical of the value of Oxford PPEs, especially when attached to someone like you - minister for Primary Care and Public Health.
The state of it.
Sunak is on dangerous ground calling for greater numeracy.
People might start questioning how a 43% vote gives an 80 seat majority.

I have lived in Britain for 47 years and raised a family here. But I have had about enough of Tories slithering towards authoritarianism and isolation. If it is not reversed within three years, my 50th year here will be my last. Iโll be off.

Thatโs a lie. Youโre in court for libel. Nothing to do with football.

You may not be personally responsible, but you must be aware that Eton past pupils in the Tory government in recent years have been exceptionally mendacious.

So, back in 2007, Sunak and his hedge fund pals push RBS into buying ABN, a bank creaking with subprime debt. Then they stake huge bets against it.
Sunak makes a fortune but the taxpayer is left to bail out RBS.
Later the Tories anoint him as PM.
People, we need to get a grip.

White collar crime can always be passed off by mugs and liars as โpaperwork violationsโ.
But if the laws say they are crimes, they are crimes. Thatโs the law.
Laws protecting the integrity of business reporting, tax reporting and electoral systems must be enforced as any
@MatthewStadlen
It seems that only Sunak is out campaigning nationally - and making a complete hash of it.
The rest are either stepping down or staying low, well away from Head Boyโs national campaign.

Sunak says he has a clear plan for implementing national service.
He doesnโt.
He picked the idea out of his arse at yesterdayโs pre-mortem meeting of ministers.
This morning, Jim Dimly couldnโt work out if itโs compulsory volunteering or voluntary compulsion.

I almost dropped my British coffee on my British grapefruit.
I canโt deal with Sunakโs nonsense any more.
Do we have to suffer another 3 weeks of it?
Canโt we just throw him in a bin and wheel him out?

This old fella, Max, came to us as a rescue puppy, after he was abandoned on the street by his previous owners. He was very boisterous at first, but eager to please and we soon all worked it out.
For more than fifteen years, he has brought great joy to us. He has his ailments

My paramedic son had to work during the pandemic for a long time with wholly inadequate protection, while Mone and her husband were profiteering fraudulently.

Sadly, this chart displays the warped values of Tory Britain.
Nursing at the bottom- economics at the top. Thatโs daft.
I have a degree in economics - itโs worth less than horseshit. I did all right in my career, but it had little to do with that degree.

@castlvillageman
Irelandโs purpose in joining the EEC/EU was to open new markets and escape economic domination by the UK. It has been a hugely successful strategy, helped by the ineptitude of Brexit. It should push on rapidly with further investment in ports and ferry routes. Finish the job.

You mean, Harris advocated the US joining the most civilised and advanced nations on Earth by providing comprehensive healthcare to all its citizens.

Good. Truss must go in a fraction of her time as PM.
They should now get more letters ready for three more racists who have displayed blatant Islamophobia this week:
Braverman
Jenrick

This cannot be ignored or tolerated any longer. Sunak must act.

Who in the Tory party thought this was a good idea?
The party that has destroyed and looted the economy and public services for 14 years?

So, Bob, Labour must immediately produce a leap in defence spending, something the Tories failed to do as they smashed and looted the economy and our public services over 14 years.

Otherwise, it will become an elected dictatorship and, very soon, an unelected one.

Is Susan Hall the worst mayoral candidate ever put forward by the Tories in London?
Itโs a hotly contested title, but she might just be edging Shaun Bailey.

The next big step, her VP choice, could make it even worse for Trump and his big-tech poodle running mate.
She needs someone articulate and personable who will fire up the Dem base, especially the younger voters.

I feel a severe cringe when I see Tories creeping like this for the young vote.
Especially while theyโre pushing conscription.
What do they take our young people for?
Ireland has received 2200 refugees to date from Ukraine (over 400 yesterday). This would equate to nearly 30,000 in the UK, proportionately. Say it quietly because, you know, Britain is leading the world. Yeah.
