Pensioners in poverty skip baths as water bills rise.
Full state pension (received by 35% of pensioners) is less than 50% of minimum wage.
2m UK pensioners live in poverty.
In 2024-25, 88,000 pensioners died in poverty.
Govts don't curb profiteering.
Poverty is a political choice.
I wasn't intending to turn this into a thread, but it seems to have happened anyway.
It's about the great plague on our lives: the extreme wealth of a tiny number of people.
And what to do about it.
The rest of the world:
βChildren are being blown to pieces in an illegal war, this is unbelievably evilβ
America:
βWhy has the price of gas gone up, itβs unbelievably inconvenientβ
Fuck you America and Israel.
Why I loathe the Crufts and Kennel Club circus of hypocrisy and exploitation of dogs.
βThis yearβs Crufts Best in Show winner Lee Cox was convicted of animal cruelty more than 20 years ago for keeping a cocker spaniel in terrible conditions.β
It was an isolated incident said the organisersβ¦
My thoughts exactly. Once an animal abusing creep, always an animal abusing creep.
Getting caught was an isolated incident?π€

Canβt argue with that. The Middle East needs to see this as an opportunity to kick the Americans out of the region for good.

Parliament voting against a social media ban for under-16s but then giving a government minister the power to do it on a whim anyway perfectly illustrates how Labour is incapable of taking any responsibility for its own policies.
The Pathetic Party.
Utter nonsense, unless the royals are stood in the Mall signing autographs for money, they personally bring no revenue to the British taxpayer.
One of France's top tourist attractions is Versailles, guess how many royals live there?!
Sometimes you come across a piece of music, or visuals, that totally hit home. Something so esoteric it defies explanation. This is it.

As long as they aren't planning one themselves as a false flag.
It will happen. Either a genuine foreign based attack, or a domestic false flag operation.
Either way it will happen. It fits the narrative.
Please be in no doubt. Trump and his coterie are actively hoping for a retaliatory terrorist attack inside the US.

My opinion of the Royal Family is about as low as it could possibly be. If the mad German King goes to America, to feed Trumps ego, it will fall to a level below loathing.
Oooooooo I do hope so

They're all complicit. Every single one.
Or the Russians!
You really have drunk the Koolaid havenβt you. And donβt patronise me about womanβs rights you offensive bloody idiot.
Oh donβt talk rubbish. People come to see the buildings, the infrastructure, the baubles and the trinkets. They never see the sponging family. You might catch a glimpse once in a blue moon. And as for democracy in the UK, you are having a laugh.
At some point in your life you wake up and realize that actually your country is not one of the 'good guys' in fact it is one of the worst countries in the world and it uses all its power and wealth to abuse weaker countries and poorer people
If you haven't woken up, you should
The world is about to find out what the Middle East looks like with no American presence or influence in the region. One of unintended consequences of this illegal war will be the Gulf States throwing the Americans out completely, and for good.
Lindsey Graham @LindseyGrahamSC The American Embassy is being evacuated in Riyadh because of sustained attacks by Iran against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is my understanding the Kingdom refuses to use their capable military as a part of an effort to end the barbaric and terrorist Iranian regime who has terrorized the region and killed 7 Americans. Question β why should America do a defense agreement with a country like the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that is unwilling to join a fight of mutual interest? Americans are dying and the U.S. is spending billions to dislodge the terrorist Iranian regime that threatens the region. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia seems to be issuing statements and doing things in the background that are marginally helpful, but unwilling to participate in military operations to end the reign of terror coming out of Iran. Hopefully Gulf Cooperation Council countries will get more involved as this fight is in their backyard. If you are not willing to use your military now, when are you willing to use it? Hopefully this changes soon. If not, consequences will follow.
Lindsey is pissy that the Saudis don't want to become full belligerents in the war that Lindsey started with little consultation with the Saudis.

The cruel HRT ban for trans kids is for one simple reason, and one simple reason onlyβ¦
It is to trans the kids for life, so that they will be forever marked by the effects of an unwanted puberty. So they will forever stand out as a different, and to be marked for a bigotry.
