It’s absolutely beautiful to see the meltdown on twitter from all the right wing caaaants about Trump being indicted.

Owning the libtards by virtue signalling their inalienable right to breathe actual poison unhindered by a ‘face nappy’.

This is a very strange world, it really is.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

We’ve seen late stage capitalism - perhaps this is late stage ‘freedom’. We’re about to see the power of the collective as China take the baton in the second half of the 21st century and the problems that come with that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s funny the battles they choose to pick in their relentless campaign for Pure American Freedom:

- Freedom to purchase and open carry weapons of war
- Freedom to incite violence and discrimination through hate speech
- Freedom to spread a deadly virus as wide as possible and place an unserviceable burden on the health system

But somehow not:

- Freedom to allow the boards of public libraries to stock whichever books they see fit to
- Freedom to allow women to make decisions about their own bodies
- Freedom to allow pantomime acts to perform in front of children
- Freedom to allow medical practitioners to follow the science and apply best practice in treating children with gender dysphoria

The most important freedoms to protect and widen appear to be those which enable acts capable of imparting direct physical violence and suffering on other human beings.

Yup, hence why the only logical destination for late stage freedom is mass gated and segregated communities, forced religion in schools and people being treated as assets by people with property - which leads to fascism which is such a deliciously horrific irony.

Russia did
----------------------------------------------------------------------
highly unlikely they'd bomb a dam in territory they control, and deprive Crimea of drinking water

Use your head man
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Russia is losing and running away, they raised the water levels in the dam in the month before they sabotaged it.

In line with their terrorism of Ukrainian civilians throughout this war they're also shelling the flooded area to kill more Ukrainian civilians while the Ukrainian forces try to evacuate them

Use your own facking head you dribbling little perv

See labour are backing down from their green pledges now too, slowly slowly roll to the right guys, no one will notice..

"Honestly, it's the Tories fault we need to follow centre right economic principles, they crashed the economy with their right wing economic principles"

Austerity: fails in almost every way conceivable.

“Oven-ready” hard Brexit: ditto.

Trussonomics:

Inflation: “It’s OK, the BoE and the markets will sort it out between them.”

Public debt, economic growth, income and wealth inequality, cost of living, wage growth, consumer debt, inflation, inward investment, productivity, innovation, green economy, infrastructure, housing market, absolute poverty…

What have they actually scored a win on in the last 15 years?

Just an abject failure fiscally and economically.

^ This reads like it’s pointed at the Tories (and it is), but really it’s about the unmitigated and spectacular failure of neoliberal economics.

Britain doesn’t need more of the same from Labour. It needs a new economic model.

Labour have still committed to the £28 billion per year, just extended the timescale of that size investment to 2027 due to the current cost of living crisis.

Rosso, what are your opinions on nuclear power? Seems to be something that has cross party and cross ideological support from many people. Surely that’s the way forward?

Realistically and reluctantly, we (global we) probably need a couple of generations of fission power (including, unfortunately, plenty of new capacity) as coal, oil and gas is completely phased out.

Strategically, it’s where all of the spend on fossil fuel exploration which isn’t instead invested in renewable capacity should be going.

Nobody should be undertaking new fossil fuel exploration now. There isn’t any absolute human need for it to be happening, it must end, and it must end now.

Reeves is saying they will "ramp up" to half that amount halfway through the next parliament.

With the provision that she won't break her self imposed "fiscal rules" (suggesting it might be put off again)

Their fiscal rules also being an actual policy they have suggested previously they could make law, to prevent any future left wing governments spending money to invest in the economy (they call it a "fiscal anchor"

Apologies for what follows, Insert...

Royal Mail: SHIIIIIT AS FACK JOKE

Posted a letter to the UK with a 3-5 day service with the Portuguese post office on 29 May, 5.15pm. The letter managed to make it from our small village, to the sorting office in our closest city, then up to Lisbon sorting, then scanned out in Lisbon airport, all by 9am the following morning. The Portuguese postal service managed to do its end of the deal in 16 hours.

Then....... FACK ALL!

Should have been delivered close to a week ago, and hasn't even been scanned in at Heathrow yet.

PrIvAtIsAtIoN dElIvErS bEtTeR sErViCe To CuStOmErS!

Fack right off it does. It's the biggest lie the British public have ever been sold, right up there with Brexit.

Fack any non-employed shareholders off and renationalise the facker, right now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Your mistake was thinking that royal mail, as the monopoly mail carrier in the UK, would care in any way about letters.

Tracked and special delivery is all they care about, everything else is left to rot, or gets done when convenient.

Huge staff shortages, low rate of applicants now they dropped the wage £1.50 for new entrants and we had poor staff retention before.. walk 12 miles a day for £11.00 a day?? 🤣

See they just had a second refusal from the government to cut the USO to 5 days too, that's going to be a huge blow.

Washington Post: MBS threatened Biden to smash American economy on disagreement over oil production cuts.

His time is up or he is untouchable ?

Beyond time the West facked them off, for multiple reasons.

Yesterday: Weather forecasts warning of the dangers of high temperatures.

Idiots on Twitter: STOP SCAREMONGERING!

Today: A shop-and-go Aldi supermarket in London.

Idiots on Twitter: DIGITAL TYRANNY! BOYCOTT ALDI! SAY NO TO WEF DIGITAL PRISONS!

If these people aren't bots or trolls, and they actually think like this, how on earth do they get through life?

Just imagine the realities of this espionage charge for Trump. We know his son in law took billions from the Saudis. Now imagine Trump sold nuclear secrets to them. If that was ever proven to be the case … I honestly don’t even know what the fallout (no pun intended) for that would be.

I had guessed that a tracked letter would be dealt with with some degree of consideration.

But obviously not.
