"YouTuber. Christian. Trump Advisor. Husband and Father of 8 children. Here's my Podcast link..." 🤮

Free-market capitalism: the more dumb, unhinged, provocative, & outrageous the claims, the more the rewards (in heaven, but especially on earth!) ImageImageImageImage
In 2018, Trump appointed Taylor Marshall to his campaign’s Catholic Advisory Board. A Texan & convert to Catholicism, Marshall has long used YouTube to propagate a version of the faith that combines hard-core traditionalism with cloak-and-dagger intrigue.

“From the year AD 33 to 2020, Catholicism has not changed one iota,” he stated in a recent video, those who disagree are: “algae, bacteria, goo.”

He has a book, "Infiltration: The Plot to Destroy the Church From Within" - like a conspiracy novel written by an 8-yr-old on acid. ImageImageImageImage

Tory donor Bassim Haidar is the latest multimillionaire to say he'll leave the UK to avoid paying £millions in tax following plans to scrap the “non-dom” regime, which has allowed him & 68,800 other non-doms to avoid paying UK tax on overseas income for 225 years.
Image
Image
Haidar, who owns “more than 10 properties” in central London, including a £20 MILLION flat near Sloane Square, "gave" the @Conservatives £450,000 last year - including £10,000 worth of advertising to Lee Anderson in November, who promptly joined Reform UK.

Image
For decades the UK news media, owned by fellow non-dom billionaires, regularly run stories warning how 'superrich wealth creators' will leave Britain.
It's a bold & often-made claim, but is there any truth in it? Will many - or indeed any - of our 68,800 non-doms leave Britain? Image

The #Rwanda Plan, based on deterrence, is ineffective, expensive, & thoroughly neoliberal: based on rational choice theory, it assumes people act based on the costs & benefits of different actions. But the Plan ignores the evidence & the complex reality of the situation. Image
Tensions are rising between the UK and Ireland, as asylum seekers cross into Ireland from Northern Ireland, reportedly fearing that if they remain in the UK, they will be sent to Rwanda. But all is not as it seems, as Matilde Rosina demonstrates...

theconversation.com/is-the-rwanda-…
Rishi Sunak has claimed that this shows the Rwanda plan is working as a deterrent. For over two years, the government has insisted that the policy to remove asylum seekers to Rwanda would deter potential asylum seekers from making dangerous journeys across the English Channel. Image

How NOT to be a PM!

Batshit Truss was stopped, “ambushed” & held “at gunpoint” by the “Deep State”, the “anti-growth coalition” & “declinists” - defeated by a progressive & Marxist alliance which includes Joe Biden &, er, Michel Foucault!

theconversation.com/liz-trusss-les…
For all this, however, Truss’s book offers some important lessons for future PMs, albeit more in terms of what NOT to do than how to do the job well.

Prime ministers, for a start, need to listen. All PMs stop listening eventually - but it seems Truss never even started. Image
Even before becoming prime minister, her own husband warned it would “all end in tears”. Truss reveals that even her agent said “I should run – but he thought it would be best if I came second”!

The Queen warned Truss to “pace yourself”. As we also know, she didn’t. Image

In 2022, the Home Office considered giving Gideon Falter a role advising the Commission for Countering Extremism, but antisemitism tsar John Mann told Braverman he'd quit if Falter was appointed.

However, the MUCH BIGGER story concerns CCE Commissioner, Robin Simcox...
Image
Image
This is a thread about how the UK Govt appoints extremists to influential positions in order to manufacture a perception of impartiality, while in reality helping to push through harmful ideologically extreme free-market policies which serve the interests of the rich & powerful. Image
Robin Simcox, who has worked for the Henry Jackson Society AND the Heritage Foundation - two of the most ideologically extreme 'think tanks' in the western world - downplays the threat of far-right terrorism while talking-up the threats from Islamism AND environmental protestors.

The barbaric, divisive, ineffective & eye wateringly expensive #RwandaBill has finally passed.

However, legal expert Natalie Hodgson, Assistant Professor in Law at University of Nottingham, has found that multiple obstacles still lie ahead...

theconversation.com/the-obstacles-…
The government claims to have secured the airfield and charter flights necessary for removing people to Rwanda. However, campaigners who oppose the scheme are targeting these elements of the policy in an attempt to make flights logistically impossible.
bbc.co.uk/news/uk-688718…
In October 2022, the charity Freedom from Torture successfully convinced the airline Privilege Style to withdraw from the government’s Rwanda scheme.

In 'free-market' societies like ours, consumer pressure in the form of protests & boycotts often work.

Today is one of Britain’s most shameful days ever: a stain on Britain’s reputation as a tolerant, fair-minded, lawful, democratic and welcoming country.

The barbaric #RwandaPlan was dreamed up following the #PartyGate scandal, as part of ‘Operation Save Big Dog’. Image
The #RwandaPlan was announced on 14th April 2022 by disgraced lawbreaking liar & former PM Boris Johnson, who in a speech at Dover falsely claimed it could potentially see Rwanda “resettle tens of thousands of people in the years ahead”, & claimed it would cost £120 million.
In reality, the capacity of the proposed facility in #Rwanda is 200 people/year, representing 0.7% of 2023 small boat arrivals.

The ACTUAL cost will be £1.8 MILLION for EACH of the first 300 deportees. There is ZERO evidence it will have a deterrent effect or be value for money.
