People only hate Elon Musk because he comes from an emerald mining fortune made in apartheid South Africa, he buys ideas and pretends he’s an inventor, he’s a white supremacist, union-busting, abusive employer, he’s hoarding $1T in stolen wages, he makes us ashamed to be human,

Boris Johnson the most deceitful slug in modern UK history. He knew full well when he wrote those 2 articles that Brexit would be horrendously damaging to the UK but he put career and personal ambition over the future of the UK by choosing the leave option. Modern day traitor

Nigel Farage - the leader of Reform UK - is STILL under investigation for failing to declare a Β£5 million 'gift'. Please RT this until this until he no longer is. Thank you

I don't blame Healey for frustration. I blame him for failure of perspective. The bastard Tories stole all the money & left the UK in a parlous state. We should all be frustrated, but the money that should have been spent over 14 years simply wasn't. Not easy to conjure it up now

I think it is time we told American politicians and tycoons to shut the f**k up and keep their noses out of our business and concentrate on looking after the health safety and welfare of the good people of America!

Ian Wright is an absolute hero for saying how we all feel about this World Cup… β€œI've just read that the Somalian referee has been denied entry. Every few hours it's another story, another story about fans denied, players denied, officials denied, journalists denied, now refs," Wright said. "You know something I'm laughing but it's not funny, it's actually not funny and something has to be said. "The expensive tickets, the most expensive tickets ever, expensive accommodation, transport through the roof. It has to be said. "Is this how the hosts behave really for the greatest game, the greatest tournament in the world, is this how the hosts behave? "Are we not hearing more? Are we seeing how Qatar got dragged, are we not hearing more? Is this the spirit of football, really? "You know who I feel for? I feel for the American fans who are desperate for this, American soccer fans who are desperate for this, how embarrassed they must be. How embarrassing for them this must be. "This is the World Cup, this is a World Cup of chaos. Whoever wins this World Cup is going to have to go through some serious chaos to get this done. "I hope we can do it, but something has to be said now. This is the World Cup."

⛔️⛔️ EXCLUSIVE: Ruud Gullit calls on Gianni Infantino to resign amid growing World Cup controversy‼️ "I have stayed quiet for a long time because I wanted to judge this World Cup on football matters. But the deeper we get into the preparations, the more it becomes clear that football is no longer the main story. For that reason, I believe Gianni Infantino should seriously consider stepping down as FIFA President. ⛔️A World Cup should unite people. Instead, this tournament is becoming a symbol of division, political disputes, travel restrictions, and administrative failures.‼️

"Every few hours there's another story fans, players, officials, journalists and now referees being denied entry.” β€œTickets are the most expensive ever, accommodation costs are huge, and transport prices are through the roof. β€œIs this really how hosts should treat the biggest tournament in football?
