As the price of natural gas spikes across Europe for the fourth time in the last five years remember those extremely clever people in Reform and the Conservatives who want to abandon renewable energy and rely even more on gas 🤡 🤡
It’ll be 18yrs tomorrow since getting seriously injured in Afghanistan as a young Royal Marines Commando.
Happy to fight for my country where me and my parents were born, raised.
No regrets. I’m British.
However, fast forward 18yrs and you have people trying to make others believe I should have no say in this country because my skin is dark.
Some of these voices are actually trying to get into a position of power.
I’ll never be made, or make my kids believe we ain’t good enough. 🫡
John Davidson’s team shares that he’s reached out to the studio handling #Sinners in order to directly apologize to Michael B. Jordan, Delroy Lindo and production designer Hannah Beacher.
Here he is, giving his account, in his own words.

'After the 2nd World War and without a penny to spend we built a National Health Service, we built council houses, we found jobs for 600,000 servicemen, we introduced pensions for the old, free education... and at the end of it unemployment was only 2.2%'
@LukeEdwardsTele Your having a laugh most fans are realists and know that Eddie needs time to have a good run of transfer windows without all the drama that’s been pushed on him give the man the tools and he will produce
If you booed at the end of the game don’t come back. I’m as frustrated with that result as everyone else is but come on seriously. How on earth is booing them at full time going to help kickstart confidence.
I honestly can’t hold this in anymore.
Donald Trump and Nigel Farage are not aberrations. They are the same project, running in two countries, with the same backers, the same tactics, and the same end goal.
Both wrap themselves in flags while looting the country they claim to love. Both posture as champions of “ordinary people” while serving billionaire interests. Both scream about morality, family values, and patriotism while embodying corruption, cruelty, and hypocrisy at a scale that would have ended any serious political career a generation ago.
Trump has been found liable for sexual assault. He has a documented history of misogyny, racism, and outright contempt for the rule of law. He is repeatedly linked to Epstein’s circle, praised authoritarian strongmen, undermined democratic institutions, and treated public office like a personal cash machine.
Farage plays the same game in a British accent. He gets a free pass despite his proximity to the same toxic networks, the same culture-war opportunism, the same pattern of scandal that would destroy anyone else. Reform isn’t a grassroots movement. It’s a fear-driven marketing operation, propped up by billionaire money, bot-amplified engagement, and relentless misinformation.
Immigrants. Minorities. “Woke elites.” Trans people. The EU. The media. There’s always a target, always a threat, always someone to blame. Not because it’s true, but because fear is profitable. Fear keeps people angry, distracted, and voting against their own economic interests.
And that’s the real point. While people argue about flags and pronouns, vast amounts of wealth continue to move upwards. Away from workers. Away from public services. Away from communities. Straight into the hands of donors, allies, family members, and friendly corporations. Deregulation. Tax cuts. Asset stripping. Corruption dressed up as populism.
The most grotesque part is the hypocrisy. The people who claim to care about faith, family, freedom, and national pride are cheering for men who violate all of it openly. Lying, cheating, assaulting, scapegoating, enriching themselves, and laughing while they do it.
This isn’t about left vs right anymore. It’s about whether we’re willing to admit what this actually is. A billionaire-funded con that feeds on fear, corrodes democracy, and treats ordinary people as expendable.
If this is what you’re still defending, then stop pretending it’s about values. At least be honest about what you’re supporting.
SIR IAN MCKELLEN. He is doing so many things here at once: giving an acting lesson, giving a history lesson, emphasizing the power of arts, AND eloquently speaking against ICE & silencing anti-immigrant bigotry.
Wow…..
