Why did England's #HS2 rail project run so wildly over budget?
Partly because of crap like this. A few scrappy dog kennels and a well-told sob story adds up to a £5 million payout and a fat legal bill.

Why is your MP not banned from Israel? 🇮🇱
Only 11 of the UK's 650 MPs have been banned from Israel.
If your MP isn't one of them, why not? Why is Netanyahu not angry with your MP?
Shame on the 639!

Quakers are calling on political leaders of every party to condemn the intimidation and violence seen in Dover and Portsmouth this weekend.Quakers
So you dont know why a gang of farnright lunatics descended on the town of #Dover and the city of #Portsmouth over the weekend for what looks like the world's shittiest teenage mutant ninja turtle convention?
But you don't want to look like a #ThickyThickyDumbDumb in front of all your mates??
#CodyDahler has some answers.
UK centrists are worked up about donations scandals in #ReformUK.
Surely voters will now see through #Farage? He flagrantly broke the rules!
But finance of #UKpolitics is an open sewer. Labour & Conservatives openly collect millions from fat cats. Farage's alleged crime is to run the wrong sort of sewer.
People who vote for the quasi-fascists aren't looking for compliance with rules of the sewer. They want disruption. Dodgy money helps them disrupt.
Small print won't defeat fascism.

Report: "The British state has lost the argument, even as it rigs the trials of genocide opponents".
The state rigged the trial of Jewish peace activist Tony Greenstein to get him jailed for up to 14 years for so-called “inviting support for Hamas”.
Greenstein spoke directly to the jury, demolishing the sham charges & exposing the political show trial.
The jury unanimously acquitted him.

#HolbornAndStPancras by-election imminent, so check electoral history. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holborn_…
The rightwing vote is in long dec!ine, from 30% in 1983, down to a combined 13% for Tories & ReformUK in 2024. The Conservative 7.2% in 2024 risks a lost deposit in the by-election.
But the LibDem trajectory is worse. In 2005, a good 2nd on 29.3%. Then they lurched to the right, and by 2024 they won only 5.8%. By-election deposit at risk.
The Libs recovered in the suburbs, but not the city.

The British media has a guide on how to impartially cover the extremist gay bar steward who won't even support #ethnicCleansing and #genocide.
Thuis professional impartiality involves a lot of rocks being hurled. Large rocks. With great vigour. At the monster who opposes genocide.
It's a free press. Which somehow happens to be almost unanimously furious about the anti-genocidal Jewish guy.
Tony Greenstein won his case by choosing to tell the jury its context (his barrister could be punished for doing so).
Once given a chance to hear all the facts, the jury accepted his arguments, incl that the UK judiciary were readily conniving in the state's growing authoritarianism.
Tellingly, Greenstein’s victory was almost entirely ignored by the msm.

Israeli forces this morning killed Fathi Khazem, a retired colonel in the Palestinian National Security Forces, during a raid on his home in the occupied West Bank.
Al Araby TV reported live that Israeli soldiers stormed the family home and ordered his father to strip. When Hazem refused, asking, "Who are you that I should undress for you?" Israeli forces shot and killed him on the spot before confiscating his body.

#Matt in tomorrow's #Torygraph is as ever clever and quirky. He unsettles people in several camps.
But still, even 30 years ago, the Telegraph would have refused to publish any hint of a suggestion that the toyal family could be a burden.
The British monarchy has lost its halo. Even the high citadel of Tory media is comfortable with the idea that royalty is a blot on the landscape.
These are the people the US has been supporting for the last 70 years, across party lines...
“I think targeted killings should be carried out in Gaza every night. Kill 30 or 40,” Ben-Gvir said, “not only those who pose a danger to you at that particular moment”.
“There are people there who are not worthy of life. They shouldn’t live. They’re not even people,” he added.

At least 50 Palestinians were detained in Qabatiya in the occupied West Bank and many returned home with numbers on their forehead and arms.

#AndyBurnham's post this evening about ending #roughSleeping is communication like no UK Prime Minister early since #TonyBlair.
Blair was initially popular, tho I found him as fake as a threepenny coin. But #Burnham might actually mean it.
Yeah, this £440 million is peanuts compared to tens of billions wasted on war toys. This won't build the backlog of a million houses, and it won't kill any billionaires.
But it may end the obscenity of people sleeping on streets. Goodonya, Andy.
In the months leading up to his election as #LabourParty leader and Prime Minister, #AndyBurnham collected almost £350,000 in donations.
£185,000 — more than half — came from a trio of #billionaires.
£160k came from one billionaire, Lord #DavidSainsbury. Some of Sainsbury's cash was for "staff working on policy".
What do you think are the chances that #LordSainsbury is paying for a plan for #Burnham to abolish billionaires and #SmashTheRich? 🤣

Israel’s far-right National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, said Israeli forces should kill 30 to 40 Palestinians in Gaza every night.
“Not just those who pose an immediate threat – there are people there who are not worthy of life. They shouldn’t live. They’re not even people,” he said in a recent podcast interview.

#ScottishLabour seizes another opportunity to miss an opportunity.
#MonicaLennon waa the left candidate to replace #AnasSarwar as leader of #SLAB. She is experienced, articulate, opposes transphobia, and above all is smart enough fo recognise that it's long past time to solut from London Labour.
So of course, the blob squeezed Monica off the ballot. The 2026 Scottish Labour leadership election will be fought between 2 stale, male, pale rightwingers, both loyal to London. 🤮

Cross about Toilets?
This is not #art. This is a photo of a sign in a restaurant, directing customers to the place to relieve themselves. Sure, it's an artistic sign, but its primary purpose is functional.
The photo waa taken 4 years by in irish friend on holiday in #Bilbao. Where else on earth would do this? ❤️😅🤣
But in 2026, the sign deserves a new purpose. It is a brilliant illustration of UKania's sick obession with legislating about toilet use by #trans people.
The alert that should tell you about wildfires, floods, earthquakes, volcanoes eruptions, floods, Israel bombing the “Islamic Republic of Britain”, and where to find shelter is now being use to tell you to stop doing barbecues, you moron, and causing us to have a COBRA meeting for that while we have important decisions to make, like drilling the North Sea and finding water for our golf clubs.

It's 2086. You are over 100 years old, trying to explain this headline to your v smart 12yo great-great grandchild.
"Count Binface rebuts claims he represents the establishment".
How long will it take you to explain?
Just the headline. Digital rot took most of the digital images & videos, and the rest went in the Great Wildfire of 2041. But the child found a wee clipping off a printout, tucked inside your favourite anthology of poets.
Until 2041, see video at bbc.co.uk/news/videos/c62x1edj…

Yes, rhe #FibDems used AI. But they chose to publish the image, at facebook.com/share/1G4qJBPBQk/
Why is #Binface kidnapping #PaddintonBear? Can anyone make sense of this?
Funny how the West paints Iran, which is leading the armed resistance against genocide, as evil. All while declaring itself to be civilized as it actively and openly supports that genocide, while being led by pedophile rapists. Make it make sense.

This is NOT what I wanted. I backed #Binface.
But it is what the people of Clacton made happen.

Compare 2026 with 2024.
Turnout FELL by 23.6%, from 45,958 to 35,111.
Nigel Farage's number of votes UP from 21,225 to 22,239. A gain of 1,014.
Farage's share of the votes rose UP from 46.2% to 63.34%.

Clacton backed the MP who they know had trousered millions.
That scares the hell out of me.

#CodyDahler has some answers.
Apparently, Niggle Farage has spent more than £10,000 to get himself re-elected in a needless by-election he called in a nugatory attempt to whitewash himself innocent of political corruption.
But don't worry, that means Nigel still has almost £4,990,000 left from the bung he failed to declare (getting him into parliamentary hot water in the first place)
