🇺🇸🇺🇸🧐🤔“AND YOU STILL DARE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH…”

Sasha Legerman: This is too accurate not to share.

This Australian’s response to Trump’s rant that “NATO does nothing for America” is absolutely devastating:

“Mate. You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight.

A country where 40% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money.

A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive.

A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy.

A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages.

You imprison more of your own citizens than any country on Earth.
More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea.

In the land of the free, 2 million people sit in cages, and a quarter of them haven’t even been convicted of anything.
They’re simply too poor to afford bail.

Your life expectancy is declining. You’re the only developed nation where that’s happening.

Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba’s.

Your children practice active shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell defense stocks to your friends.

Your minimum wage hasn’t changed in 15 years.

Your teachers work two jobs, your veterans sleep under bridges, and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you.

And now a convicted criminal — found liable for sexual abuse, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and running the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban — is thanking you for yet another disaster.

And you call Greenland badly governed?

Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world.
Nobody there goes bankrupt because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because insurance refused treatment.

‘NATO wasn’t there when we needed them.’

When exactly was that, champ?
September 11?

Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU.

Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU.

Australia wasn’t even in NATO, and we still showed up. For twenty years.

And then you left at 2 a.m. without telling anyone and left everybody else to clean up the mess.

You don’t care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend, and you haven’t shown it a single ounce of sympathy.

So maybe before calling other countries badly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum siding salesman with a spray tan.

The only thing badly managed in this picture is your damn mouth.

And you still dare to lecture the rest of the world?”

Ban All MPs' Second Jobs!

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

BREAKING: I've secured a parliamentary debate next week on banning all MPs' second jobs.

Farage has pocketed over £1 MILLION from outside "work" since the General Election

Being an MP is a full-time job. No MP should be out chasing lucrative second jobs.

Let's end this racket!

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Greedy privatised water companies treat our rivers and seas like an open sewer.

And they've ripped off the public with higher bills while handing nearly £90 BILLION to shareholders since privatisation.

In Parliament, I called for water to be brought back into public ownership.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

The gravy train continues.

Failed former CEO of Ofwat, David Black has reappeared at a consultancy company called BRG where he will "Advise firms and investors across regulated industries as they navigate shifting regulatory frameworks".

His boss? No less than former head of regulation at Thames Water one Colm Gibson.

As @PrivateEyeNews would say "Trebles all round". Well actually that's exactly what they did say. 👇👇👇

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

At what point do we stop pretending our newspapers are ‘news’ and start calling them what they are…

Promotional pamphlets for the billionaires who own them and the agendas they’re selling.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

"SNP Government 'pressured' Scottish Water not to publish sewage dump data before election"

Well, well, well, would you look at that. What have they got to hide apart from 1,000,000s tonnes of sh*t?

Dear God is he still around? Barber has retired I see. Wonder if he said all this to his pal Lebedev at “that party”. This guy is a walking talking living breathing Misconduct in Public Office. And never forget Brexit was a strategic goal for Russia

[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. 👇

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

There is clearly only one real answer to this, it's time for public ownership.

[Geoff @geoff_peake]

@WakeUpPatriott Yes

[Paul Lewis @paullewismoney]

Of course it does. Always book direct with the train operator if you can.

More now then ever, in a world in which truth and honest reporting is dying in front of our eyes, let's put a fire under weak politicians and get a decent, brave UK press. https://t.co/JVQfcEujGa

@afneil Yeah and solar's pretty good today !

The only 3 people to benefit from Brexit were.

Johnson - got to be prime minister
Farage - got himself a cult following
Putin - got himself a weaker UK and Europe.

The rest of us just got poorer, more divided, less rights and for some very angry at the world.

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

The bullet train in 🇯🇵-as glorious as everyone says. A reminder the Japanese built their first high speed train for the 1964 Olympics and it became national by the 80s. They’re now building Maglevs (floating trains).

Meanwhile in 🇬🇧 we can’t be sure we’ll connect HS2 to Euston.
