@PoliticsJOE_UK What war?

[Jack Dart @JackWDart]

A reminder that the Brexit party, which later became Reform UK, didn’t stand candidates in the 2019 General Election, so Boris Johnson could win. Farage was leader of the party at the time and made the decision.

So when Reform spokespeople are touring television studios today to shout about cowardice and democracy, remind them of this.

"Don't tell me if we try to tax them, the country is finished, because for people who don't have fancy jobs like us, it's finished anyway"

What a quote, and completely true.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Nigel Farage is the epitome of the establishment.

He makes millions at the expense of the poorest, while blaming the most vulnerable to protect his wealth and power.

We cannot afford a society that feeds the expensive ego of Nigel Farage. Clacton deserves better.

[Adam Pearson @Adam_Pearson]

Currently the Clacton By-election appears to be a choice between

A) a novelty act with no real policies
B) Count Binface.

Salah is disappointed that the referee keeps helping Messi and Argentina. Salah was through on goal and the referee blew a foul against Egypt for Parades failing to get the ball.
Truly Pathetic.

[Dale Johnson @DaleJohnsonBBC]

Egypt's disallowed goal was completely against how this tournament has been refereed.

You can't have a light touch where you don't give fouls for minimal contact and then rule out a goal through VAR for a very minimal hold of the shirt.

Again. Farage *Is* the Establishment & after a decade of this shit, you'd have to be a fucking Fool to believe otherwise.

she called kylian a coconut milk drinking chimpanzee and is somehow demanding an apology from him. racists baffle me everyday.

Overturn this. 🧏‍♂️ #USABEL

Over the years, FIFA has suspended the likes of Nigeria, Kuwait, Indonesia, Pakistan, Congo, Sierra Leone, and Guatemala over government interference in football.

But the US president ringing up to get an on-field decision overturned?

Absolutely fine. Nothing to see here.

[HLTCO @HLTCO]

Superb. Let’s be honest.

@MattP1Gallagher I’ve blocked will Buxton for wasting that hype on indicar

[Merlin. @merlinfperlo]

@MattP1Gallagher Thanks for confirming the announcement time 😉

[Michael Spicer @MrMichaelSpicer]

The only scandal that would cause Nigel Farage to lose voters would be the discovery that he's actually a compassionate human being who has been using his wealth to fund refugee charities.

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

If this were black or Asian people doing this, the typical accounts on here would be calling for them to be deported, and Elon would reply saying "concerning" or "so true."

[Iain Cameron @theiaincameron]

Ivory Coast v Norway is the World Cup Round of 32 match that best shows the absurdity of the Mercator Projection.

Despite Norway being shown on most maps as far larger than Ivory Coast, the two countries are actually almost identically sized. Ivory Coast is 322,463 km², and Norway: 323,802 km².

Stay tuned for more cutting-edge, geography-based World Cup analysis.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Sure

The top 50 mega-donors already spent over $1.3B on the midterms.

Only 20% of that is for supporting Dems.

9 of the top 10 mega-donors are supporting Republicans.

Last cycle, Elon Musk alone spent $290M supporting Trump and Republicans.

But you wouldn’t know that by reading the Republican-billionaire-owned NY Post.

This is what a system rigged for fascism, backed by propaganda, looks like.

How much billionaires spend in an election isn’t a conversation that should be had in a Democracy — it’s time to overturn Citizens United.
