Musk is working with the Russians to sabotage NATO and the US military.

There isn’t a court in the fucking world that would accept “I believe John Smith raped back me in 2009” as enough evidence to convict, including the UK.
Americans seem to be falling HARD for Russian disinformation campaigns about us so to be clear;
- Brand texted one of his victims confirming he’d assaulted and hurt her
- There were multiple witnesses and contemporary records of sexual assault for several different occasions
- The allegations were discussed at the time and there ARE records of this.
There was OVERWHELMING evidence. More evidence in fact than in most cases for other crimes.

Omg you guys, it's true. Ilhan Omar came here on a student visa, then quit school and just started working. Total immigration fraud, blatant.
Oh wait, that wasn't Ilhan, that was Elon.

Privatisation in a nutshell:
1) Steal from us something we own.
2) Sell us back an inferior service
3) Charge us a higher price.
The pattern is the same everywhere: royal mail, water, railways, the NHS, public services, council services…
Failures of privatisation.
Royal Mail to cut up to 2,500 jobs
RM doesn't meet letter delivery targets. Regulator keeps lowering them
Postage: 1st class, £1.80, 2nd class 91p.
When privatized in 2013: 1st class 60p; 2nd 50p.
Poor service, triple price.

An extremely relevant paper, given the renewed concern that wealth taxes lead to massive out-migration:
The Norwegian wealth tax "exodus", discussed in global media, never happened. At most 100 individuals left. Tax revenue increased by +71.5%. No changes in business activity.
Norway's controversial 2021–2024 reforms nearly doubled the tax on business wealth. Firms of affected owners did not invest less, and outmigration was limited to the very top, from @Mariusring nber.org/papers/w35854

In 2015 David Cameron privatised the National Fostering Agency, it's now being paid £160m a year straight to a New Jersey tax haven to manage the fostering of just 2,616 children
A tax free profit of £61,000 per child, and they don't even provide any care, that's the fosters job

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1
CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1
CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1
Trickle-down economics was always a sham.
Nothing has ever trickled down.

NEWS: Jason Arday Lied About Having a Masters From Birkbeck University
I filed a freedom of information request to Birkbeck University to check the claim Jason Arday made in the video below in 2022 that he had a masters in psychodynamic practice from the university.
Birkbeck told me today they had no records of Arday ever being a student there.
What's more, the university didn't even offer a masters in psychodynamic practice.
There is no mention in Arday's memoir of his having received such a masters.
The clear conclusion is that Arday was lying when he claimed to have earned a degree from the university.

Some people insist on giving only half the story about Dave Harris, the Professor who first uncovered large amounts of plagiarism in Jason Arday’s work. The Emeritus status was withdrawn in September 2025, largely because of publishing a critique of CRT, but *reinstated* in February 2026. He was supported by @ComAcFreedom and @SpeechUnion

The third article in a series about the fantastical claims made by Jason Arday. Claims testicular cancer + months in a locked-in coma after a car crash.
Neither made the book.
He had no degree in sociology.
Cambridge still made him Professor of it.

Indonesia has Christian officials. Malaysia has a Sikh cabinet minister. Pakistan and Bangladesh have non-Muslims in parliament. Jordan reserves seats for Christians. Senegal is ~95% Muslim and had a Catholic president for 20 years. Lebanon literally requires its president to be Christian. You asked for ONE.

I seem to have upset the @Nigel_Farage fan club - so let me be clear.
This man sows hate, lies and division.
He is a grifter and a conman.
He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.
RT if you agree
P.s. multiculturalism is great.

Wow. All the chickens are coming home to roost. To everyone who believes the current story about Farage’s £ is magically different from the one I was destroyed over - & a large chunk of UK press remained completely silent about - please take a long hard look at yourself
Exclusive: Prominent Reform member Arron Banks hired private investigators to look into Sunday Times journalist @Gabriel_Pogrund after his reporting on Nigel Farage’s finances.
Banks is a multi-millionaire businessman, and was a major Ukip donor. He co-founded the Leave.EU pro-Brexit campaign and, in May 2025, he stood unsuccessfully as the Reform candidate in the West of England mayoral election. Last month, an investigation led by Pogrund, editor of the Sunday Times’s Insight team, revealed that Farage had been secretly funded by convicted criminal George Cottrell, known as “Posh George”.
