The income per person in the UK’s richest local authority – Kensington and Chelsea (£52,500) – now stands at 4.5 times that of the poorest – Nottingham (£11,700).
A stat to make your blood boil.
”Thinking” is a pretty high bar for most Reform-ists, I doubt many of them engage in it.
It's amazing how this comment didn't break the 'be civil and nice' rule (also weird that hexbear doesn't block non-admins viewing removed posts, imo Lemmy should do this by default).
I don't know what we can really do about this, other than warn new users about ml
's campism and tendency to remove criticism of anti-Western governments.
Would highly recommend reading the article in full, my splicing really doesn't do it justice.
Careful or you might run a fowl of the goose stable.
Can't wait for their article advocating for Farage to become chancellor.
It's time lads. We will overthrow those pretenders at !memes@feddit.uk and claim our rightful place on the feddit.uk sidebar.
"HMRC, I can assure you the OnlyFans subscription is a business expense. Yes I had to get the 36 month package, who knows what this mad woman will take off, er, I-I mean pull off next!"
This should be put up in a museum

I love how he's the only one that looks uncomfortable, really adds to the surrealness of the scene.
The bellend unfortunately has a point. Labour has declared a number of ultra-safe seats battlegrounds due to how much they've fucked up on Gaza. We're probably stuck hearing from this raging bigot for some years to come.
I was making my own post about this, but I'll just post what I was going to write here instead of having two posts about the same thing.
Two Corbynist have been barred from standing by Labour party, with a third suspected to be also soon be barred.
Lloyd Russell-Moyle, MP for Brighton Kemptown, has had what he described as a 'politically motivated' complaint made about his behaviour eight years ago. He notes that the complaint being made so close to the election that there isn't time for him to clear his name before then.
Meanwhile, Faiza Shaheen, candidate for Chingford and Woodford Green, announced on Newsnight that she had been deselected over a collection posts and likes she made on Twitter. She says one of the tweets brought up is one describing her experiences of Islamophobia within the Labour Party.
One that she apologised directly for is this tweet of a John Steward sketch captioned with "every time you say something even mildly critical of Israel, you're immediately assailed by scores of hysterical people".
Leaked Whatsapp messages have revealed that Poplar and Limehouse MP Apsana Begum has had a complaint made to the NEC about her by her CLP calling for a selection vote, supposedly from friends of her abusive ex-husband.
These announcements come on that back of Starmer allies being parachuted into seats, including director of think tank Labour Together Josh Simons, and NEC member and director of Labour First and We Believe in Israel Luke Akehurst.
The north has fallen on hard time. Well, not hard times but rather um… Well, you get the idea.
I like the implication at the start where he implies Reform voters are a bit thick.
Update, Sharon Graham, head of Unite, has released a statment criticising this. Important to note that Labour had met with unions before and promised not to water down worker rights reform any more after u-turning on a number of policies back in September. The main point of criticism is the number of caveats that accompany many of the proposals.
Positivity? In a UK politics community??? What is the world coming to.
Can someone get me some of whatever Nichi's on.
Why did they ask about COVID but not Palestine? Galloway was able to win a by-election on the issue alone, its omission is strange and kinda suspect.
Many won't realise the PM is there, the delay is them trying to find a stool for him to stand on.
You might be wondering how Farage is justifying everyone in his Company/Party being absolutely terrible. He's, of course, just blaming someone else.
