Democracy doesn’t survive on allegiance to one individual. It survives on integrity, transparency, and the courage to uphold the Constitution no matter who is in office. This administration doesn’t seem to understand that concept and are all in violation of an oath they swore.

The comments are full of "tsk tsk bloody Reform" when Labour is the GOVERNMENT RIGHT NOW and they, get this, are in charge of the NHS.

I highly recommend that everyone follow artists. If you do, your feed is filled with art every day. Real, original art. It's bonkers that you can even have this. Amazing. Undeniably cool.

And then support those artists, when you can, because that helps the delight continue.

Starmer should immediately & unequivocally ban access to British airspace to US warplanes. The UK should not be accomplice to a US President who is threatening more war crimes. Period.

We're on the verge of a genocidal, nuclear war that our supposed "ally" has said he's ready to unleash.

Would it be too much to ask for the Prime Minister to have something to say about it? Or do?

Suspend US bases on UK soil now.

Donald Trump has threatened to destroy every bridge & power plant in Iran, vowing to bomb the county “back to the Stone Age.”

We warned our government it was dragging Britain into an illegal war — and that the consequences would be catastrophic.

Enough. End UK complicity now!

Donald Trump wants to spend $1.5tn on 'Defense'.

$1.2tn would provide Universal Healthcare.

No more stupid wars and no more poverty and death.

Get a President who will choose Healthcare and not War.

We are spending an estimated $1B per day on the war on Iran.

Now Trump and Co want an extra $200B from Congress to fund the war.

But healthcare? Cut.

Food stamps? Cut.

Education? Cut.

Cancer research? Cut.

Environmental protections? Cut.

And of course, taxes on the rich? Cut.

It's obscene.

It's only worth going back to the Moon if it makes us look properly again at Earth, and appreciate how beautiful, precious and fragile what we have here is. The most famous images from Apollo aren't about the Moon - they're pictures of Earth. We need to stop taking our home for granted.

Cancelling Doctors is not just a punishment for Doctors.

It is mostly a punishment for YOU.

They will be replaced by Private Healthcare who are more expensive and provide worse care, because they are only bothered about profit.

Or they will be replaced by nothing at all.

Why can’t THIS be the lead story in the news tonight?
Humanity has this incredible planet & most don’t even care.
We’d rather compete with each other & murder each other.

If I worked at a bank and I took a £55k donation to give preferential 'loans' to certain companies I would go to jail.

Please tell me what the difference is when you are a politician and you handout corrupt contracts.

Why should any political donations other than a standard annual party membership fee (say £25) be permitted?
All other options allow wealthy people disproportionate political influence.

AOC: Companies like Palantir are mining endlessly the data and privacy of the American people—keeping track of everything that they say and do. And sending it to a militarized government.

So weird that a couple of hours before the markets open in NY, Trump announces that the war is basically over without being specific. And then, as a completely random event, the Dow futures are up a thousand points. If I didn't know better, I'd say exploiting the market is all that matters to him.
