Hey Canadians, don't look at the early voting data and think "ah the conservatives are for sure gonna lose" and not vote. Early voters usually swing liberal, then the old people who always vote conservative show up the day of. VOTE! Don't make the same mistake Americans did

Giggling hysterically here.

I keep seeing posts from HopeNotHate and the like pointing out the fascist connections of Reform and their spin-offs, while Labour and the Tories are doing everything the US christofash money they've taken could ever ask of them.

Say what you like about Corbyn's Labour, and a lot has been said and I've criticised him about plenty while I was walking streets to get him elected. But we were a democratic party back then, and he followed the will of conference, and he told the truth and would never go out of his way to hurt people. And that will of conference was never to kill minorities or suck up to the Fourth Reich.

From where I'm sitting, the UK parties to the right of the Greens and on a very good day, the LibDems all look like different flavours of far right.

Campaigners from #Greenpeace and @GreenpeaceUK lit up London’s Tower Bridge with an anti-billionaire protest, calling for people to “resist Donald Trump and his billionaire bullies."

“Donald Trump and his billionaire bullies are using their wealth to silence dissent, roll back decades of social and environmental progress, and manipulate the game in their favor. Enough is enough. It’s time to fight back. It’s time to resist. The time is now!”

Fight the billionaire takeover - Greenpeace International

If you think billionaires should not be deciding our rights and freedoms? Sign now. Using their vast fortunes, they weaken regulations meant to protect people and the planet, fund candidates who serve their interests, and gain control of the media to shape the stories we hear. It’s time to resist!

As a parent who was told their child may have ‘high functioning aspergers’ on their final day of preschool…to finally getting a clinical face to face diagnosis for #autism in Yr 5, I can say categorically #Farage has no comprehension of how longwinded the system is in the UK in terms of diagnosing #neurodivergent conditions.

And that’s just 1st stage…then you have to fight for #EHCP.

Block Trump from addressing Parliament

I've just signed 38 Degrees' petition calling on Trump to be banned from addressing the UK Parliament during his state visit later this year. Will you join me and add your name too?

The infrastructure to "onshore" that production simply doesn't exist presently.

It would take years and millions of dollars to create that capacity, and the company has no incentive to commit to a capital expenditure that massive when the powers that be keep changing our national trade policy on a weekly basis.

No, we have little choice at this point but to either shop around for cheaper (and likely lower quality) suppliers or just pay the damn tariff.
