The real two-tier scandal in the UK is the relentless double standard approach of a media which lets one party leader get away with financial dodgery that would drive them into a frenzy if it involved someone their billionaire owners didn’t want in power because they believed in things like fairness and equality
@MirrorPolitics It would seem influence in UK politics now comes in crypto backed packages from outside the UK. And that’s supposed to help ordinary people exactly how?
@SkyNews Musk's been taking shots at the UK government, and plenty of others across Europe, almost non stop since he bought this platform and turned it into a complete cesspit. Ask yourself what does he have to gain, he obviously couldn’t care less about the people of the UK ?

@archer_rs Not to mention droughts, crop failures, water shortages, rising skin cancer rates, and crumbling infrastructure under extreme heat, plus things like wildfires, flooding, heatwaves, coastal erosion, and more frequent storms. 🤦🏻♂️

The number of visas issued to foreign workers has halved since its peak in 2023.

@LBC Reminiscent of the 80’s conversations about how many jobs would be lost if the conservatives closed all the coal mines … which they did anyway 🤷♂️
@TimesRadio I can’t help wondering what, or who’s, Blair’s motivation is here. Throwing more rocks in an attempt to destabilise the UK Government.
Could it be linked to Starmer standing up to Trump and Netanyahu over the Iran war? Blair’s made it pretty clear he was pro USA from the start.
Nearly 10,000 foreign national offenders have been removed from the UK since July 2024 - up 36% compared to the previous 21 months.
That includes nearly 100 murderers, 600 sexual offenders and hundreds of violent offenders, alongside thousands more convicted criminals.
