GB News has said that no-one cares what Carol Vorderman has to say.

So here is a Poll.

If you listen to Vorders RT
If you listen to 'News' from the swamp Like

[Roger Gall @Shambles151]

Nigel Farage - the leader of Reform UK - is under investigation for failing to declare a £5 million 'gift'.

Please RT this until the BBC gives this story the same level of blanket coverage - as it would for the leader of any other UK political Party.

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Nobody should.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

You'll want to be sitting down for this bit.

Water companies are currently £82.7 billion in debt, have paid themselves £85 billion in dividends, leak over a trillion of litres of water per year, dump sewage for almost 4 million hours per year, have been convicted of over 1,200 criminal acts since 1989 and an average of 35% of your bill goes on nothing but paying more interest and yet more dividends.

And not a single company has ever lost their operating licence. 👇

You spend millions every year so well paid MP's and Lord's can get subsidised alcohol at work.

There are 27 alcohol serving taxpayer subsidised bars and restaurants in the UK.

ALL of them in Westminster.

It's time to make it 0.

Like/RT if you agree.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

And there is the reality.

All of the promises, all the rhetoric, all the empty, meaningless words.

Welsh Water at its finest.

Mick Lynch "Nigel Farage is a racist."

RT if Mick is right.

#Tory MP #HelenWhately earns £114kpa. Despite only living 50miles from Westminster, she claims £39kpa 2nd home allowance. Her travel costs are paid for. She dines & drinks in restaurants & bars we subsidise. Then she calls people who have to claim #benefits scroungers. #Hypocrisy

650 MPs are getting the following government benefits-
Free rent
Free council tax
Free utilities
Free childcare
Free travel
Free fuel
Free insurance
And more!
On top of almost £100k salary!
All paid by working tax payers!
But hey let’s go after pensioners

[Lazzyyyyyy @em_Lazzy]

The fact we are going to have our first trillionaire before everyone has access to clean drinking water is proof our current system is not for the greater good but for the greedy.

[SophieSpring97 @SophieP25397]

Hope you can afford it.

[Mark Cockerton @CockertonMark]

‘Like’ if you don’t believe that a Thailand-based crypto-billionaire would give Farage £5 million and expect nothing at all in return.
‘Repost’ if you think the donation should have been declared in accordance with parliamentary rules.

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Hannah Spencer speaking to PoliticsJOE,

"You can smell the alcohol when people are in-between votes"

"As everyone is going in to vote, some people have been drinking in-between"

"I can't imagine if a cleaner did that, or someone working in a bank, had a few drinks then went back to work smelling of alcohol. That wouldn't happen"

"So many recent cases of questionable behaviour allegedly from MPs, an unprofessional culture. Life doesn't work like that"

"Why does this happen where some of the most important decisions are made?"

"I wasn't prepared for what goes on in the rest of the chamber where there is a lot of jeering going on from different sides of the bench"

"It is like a pantomime, like a laugh and a joke"

"We're making decisions about people's lives, we're here to do a job and to serve people"

"And it just feels like a pantomime"

"If we were having a team meeting we wouldn't be able to behave like that, so why is it happening in Westminster?"

[Stuzi 🐝🐝 @stuzi_pants]

Like clockwork all the usual right wing throbbers have come racing out to defend MPs’ rights to be arsehole pissed in Parliament after frequenting their massively subsidised Westminster bars, and before heading to vote on critical legislation

Here’s Gove

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Michael Gove turned up at work to vote completely off his face.

It's totally unacceptable, if you turned up to work like that you would be fired on the spot.

[GreenJJNews @GreenJJNews]

The Starmer–Mandelson–Palantir story raises serious questions about how power is being used.

A private meeting, a £240m contract without competition - the public deserves answers and full transparency now.

Can we get this story about Farage and his dodgy tax Retweeted 10,000 times?

You do not earn a billion dollars. You steal it. Nobody works a billion times harder than a nurse, a teacher, or a farmer. That money comes from underpaying the people who actually did the work. Stop worshipping hoarders who are just really good at wage theft.

A final piece of advice from Holly Butcher - written the day before she passed away from cancer at just 27:

“It’s a strange thing knowing you’re going to die young.

At 26, I thought I had time…
To fall in love.
Start a family.
Grow old.

But cancer doesn’t care about plans.

Now, I understand how fragile life really is. Every single day is a gift, not a guarantee.

I’m not writing this to scare you. I’m writing to remind you: really live.

Stop stressing over little things. Be kind to your body- move it, nourish it, stop criticizing it. One day you’ll wish you had appreciated it.

Go outside.
Look at the sky.
Feel the sun.
Just be.

Spend less time chasing “stuff” - more time making memories. Don’t skip moments with people you love.

Laugh more.
Write a note.
Tell someone you love them.

Complain less.
Give more.
Helping others brings more joy than anything you can buy.

Be present.
Put your phone down.
Show up - really show up.

You don’t need to have it all figured out. You don’t need a perfect body, or a perfect life.

Just follow what makes your heart light up. Say no to what drains you. Make changes when you need to.

And please - donate blood. I wouldn’t have had that extra year without it. And that year gave me memories I’ll hold close… forever.

Thank you for reading this.
Live your life well.

And maybe… we’ll meet again someday.”
