Hey @Nigel_Farage.
Remember in 2011 when you condemned "opportunistic" rioters who had "nothing to do with any political reason" and called for the "army on the streets?
You seem to have changed your tune when it's the far-right opportunistically rioting in 2024.

This is an open letter to Gareth Southgate.
Dear Gareth,
Play 2 out and out wingers, play foden as the 10 and Bellingham and rice in the middle. And tell Harry Kane he’s a striker not a centre back.
Kind Regards
Every England fan

Lads, the country’s going to shit. Energy prices have caused the sharpest increase in absolute poverty in 30 years. Councils are going bankrupt. Backlogs in the NHS & courts will take an estimated 10 years to clear. 4.3m children are growing up in poverty. But yeah, you crack on.

3.6m children in the UK, more than 20% live in poverty.
Denmark 2.4%
Finland 3.2%
Norway 3.6%
Sweden 3.6%
The UK is richer than all these countries, poverty is a choice made by Government.

Kids starving, pensioners freezing, rent doubling, racism, sexism, poverty, NHS backlogs, criminal corrupt police. But the ONE thing that unites the 3 main political parties is a tiny cross on a football shirt.
How can you not be ashamed of this backward little fucking island.

Bradley getting a yellow for being pushed twice and Caicedo avoiding one for a reckless challenge perfectly summing up the standard of refereeing in that first half and as a whole.

Every single Hospitality venue across the UK is being crucified or closed by untenable energy bills.
Yesterday British Gas posted record profits of £751 million.
10 times the previous year of £72 million.
Anyone else angry? Morning @ofgem.

Rishi Sunak has just published his tax return.
He earned over £2.2 MILLION last year. But he paid just 23% in tax.
That's the same rate of tax a teacher pays.
Our tax system is rigged in favour of the super-rich. It's time to make them pay their fair share!

The UK has the highest retirement age in the world, the lowest pension in Europe, the longest working hours in Europe, one of the lowest minimum wages, the highest energy costs, the biggest profits, and the lowest taxes for the richest.
It all needs to change.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The UK has one of the highest minimum wages in Europe & averages a 35.9hr working week, compared to EU avg 37.5hrs.
The state pension in the UK is broadly average or slightly above average for Europe.
UK retirement age is the same as many other European countries.
