To absolutely hate this government, and what they are doing to our country?

Strong words but is is how I feel at this point in time. All of them make me feel physically sick. The latest example -

No wonder Labour won't cut benefits. More than half of Burnham's MPs represent seats where claimant count is higher than their Commons majority

Half of Labour MPs in seats where PIP claims are higher than majority

Some 212 Labour MPs in England and Wales have more constituents on Personal Independence Payment (PIP) than their winning margin at the 2024 general election .

I would - to fit in - but shorts do nothing for me. So I make do with bright pink cord culottes.

No I am thinking of the Pink Ladies. Google them, they have a website. I think they are having some sort of demo soon. I don't use Reddit. Hate it.

Google them, they have a website. I won't link to them here though as I wouldn't want to give them the clicks.

They would be in good company of Antifa fans then. They like hitting women they disagree with.

Yes and harassing them. Wrong kind of woman in their eyes.

And all those 'trans activists' (men) who spit on / hit women. And carried signs saying hang the terfs. That kind of thing. Lovely!

Giving out addresses of people who think differently to them. Bit like lefties harassing MPs on their own front doorstep, in front of their kids I suppose.

Yeah but, there's a difference.

Because I was genuinely interested to know if cov was a member, given her stated preference for pink culottes over black shorts. She isn't but asked who they are. I explained.

What does 'doxxing' mean?

Doxxing (or doxing) is the act of publicly revealing private or identifying information about a person online without their consent, usually to harass, humiliate, or harm them

Lovely people, pink ladies and tommy robinson

Which is also very wrong.

I see the government are going to borrow more money. Not reduce spending which is what anyone would do in any other scenario. Stop giving money away that you don't have.
