When someone says: "I don't know how to help"?
But all I'm asking is for people share and leave a dot.
3 replies — even dots — can save my children 💔

Nothing says “ordinary patriot” like a BitMEX co-founder who pleaded guilty to US anti-money-laundering failures, got a Trump pardon, then dumped a record £36m into Reform and front-loaded it specifically to beat forthcoming donation rules.
If a Labour or Tory donor did this, you’d be screaming oligarch, democracy for sale, and “get around the rules.” When it’s your side, it’s “hero, legend, I just love my country.”
That’s not patriotism. That’s a billionaire buying political firepower and you dressing it up as a folk tale. Same scrutiny you demand of everyone else. Or is that only for the other team?

He is told a free speech protestor young woman has had their hair pulled and beaten by a crowd of men and he says “oh boohoo” ???

Farage is a Grade A hypocrite. He won't do surgeries because of security fears, yet he struts around Clacton trying to garner votes to defeat a dustbin. He reports Polanski, yet he platformed Lucy Connolly as a political prisoner. Vote Binface & throw out the trash once & for all

Crossings are down 44% year on year and even the Express had to report Labour plans are working.
The failing one trick pony has nothing left............

Quite funny Nigel Farage calling for a general election and claiming Andy Burnham has no mandate when he isn’t even an MP and is locked in an electoral struggle with a bin.

Call me old fashioned but I like presidents who didn't have to pay $5.6 million for raping a woman.

Nick Robinson to Zia Yusuf: "You say this is all about standing up to the establishment.
"You're a multi-millionaire. You made your money selling luxury helicopter charters and rare wines to the super-wealthy.
"Nigel Farage is a public schoolboy, a former commodities trader who gets £5m gifts from his friends and lives in a 5-storey house next to Buckingham Palace courtesy of a man convicted of fraud.
"Do you really think you are in a position at Reform UK to claim not to be part of the super-wealthy, self-serving establishment?"

Please don't forget the Trump family is barred from ever running another charity in NY because they stole from a Children's Cancer Charity. A Children's Cancer Charity. A FUCKING CHILDREN'S CANCER CHARITY!

The greatest trick coffee pod companies ever pulled was convincing people to pay more for cheap coffee wrapped in trash.
Tens of billions of single-use coffee pods and capsules are used every year. Many are made from mixed plastic, foil, aluminum, filters, lids, and wet coffee grounds, which makes them annoying or impossible to recycle through normal curbside systems. Even the 'recyclable' ones often require special collection programs most people don't have easy access to.
The pod gives you one cup of coffee, then leaves behind a tiny piece of manufactured garbage that may outlive you.
A French press, drip maker, moka pot, pour-over, percolator, or reusable pod can make coffee every morning without throwing away a plastic capsule every time you wake up. The grounds can go in your compost.
This is one of those environmental swaps that is not complicated. You don't need a lifestyle overhaul. You don't need to become a coffee snob. You just need to make the switch.
