(🚨) BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump No Longer Remembers That He Was President and Controlled the FBI on January 6, 2021, Confirming Americans' Worst Fears About His Advanced Dementia

Where is this "Britian" of which you speak?

Shout out to the #WRWC commentators on BBC who are helpfully explaining rules idiosyncrasies. Much as I loved listening to Bill McLaren, I was often clueless. I'm actually learning the game in context, and a cracking game it is #CANvENG #WRWC2025

If you, or anyone you know, has doubts about the story of Farage's allies taking Russian bribes... 👇🧵

This is an excellent point. 👇

I feel this is probably quite important information. You wouldn't want to get it wrong.

I'm not even going to ask what happened last night, Steve...

Bunnies, like Daleks, appear to have developed the power of flight. This is only one small step away from the Terrible Beast of Aaaarrrgghh!! #MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

We need many more politicians telling this truth.

A reminder from @ledbydonkeys.org of the extraordinary hypocrisy of Nigel Farage - about time the BBC challenged him on this every time he's interviewed or appears on a panel : www.youtube.com/watch?v=SA8T...

People are exhausted. Our high streets, public spaces, whole communities left unloved. Blaming migrants won’t fix this. Tackling inequality will. Tax the super-rich. Fund public services. #DrawTheLine www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Anyone thinking of voting Reform, give one good reason why you don't think this would be tolerated, or even openly encouraged, under a Reform UK government? #Reform #ReformUK #FarRight #Trumpism #UnlawfulActivity

If you aren't following @monkemma.bsky.social already for her forensic dissection if misleading headlines, may I suggest you read this thread and re-evaluate your timeline. Thank you for your attention(span) in this matter.

BREAKING NEWS: Small sea otter contemplates the big wide world.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Rayner resigned. Your move Farage.

The most powerful message I’ve seen

Turns out Kier Starmer understands and agrees with racists, as he accepts the premise of their anger. He doesn't want the hotels closed because he wants migrants applications processed swiftly so they can get on with their lives. He wants hotels closed to placate unhinged racists!!! 🙄

Kevin Maguire: "If you're put up in a hotel & you get meals you get £10/wk.. all these terrible myths.. free iPads.. myths & lies have gone mainstream & we've got to challenge them.. we've gone back to the worst aspects of the 1970s where racism is becoming mainstream" Well said

A judgement passed without an audience is one nobody can be expected to abide by. So we should be thankful to the people who take the trouble to read, explain and publicise our laws as interpreted by our courts, for without them we may lack the understanding of why the law functions as it does.

Great Yarmouth is set to host the biggest neo-nazi music festival in over a decade. The Home Office has the power to block entry of overseas bands, which will scupper the promoters plans. But they won’t act unless we demand it. Email the Home Office now: hopenothate.org.uk/2025/08/28/g...

Just noticed this on the checkout notification I get from the Chicago Public Library. I think it’s new and I love it!

Why is anyone giving Farage airtime? He has 4 MPs. Labour have 398. What is the statistical probability he could ever gain enough seats to be Prime Minister? Any statisticians done the maths? State of the parties - MPs and Lords - UK Parliament members.parliament.uk/parties/comm...

Backtracking over the Good Friday Agreement means that he could not denounce the ECHR - a key element of the plan

Paying money to Iran or the Taliban to take asylum seekers back could put UK citizens in danger, as well as potentially making UK an accessory to torture and murder. That money could be used to finance attacks on the UK or our allies. What kind of 'patriots' could propose this?

“When you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything … Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything." America can’t say it wasn’t warned.

My current favorite bit of right-wing Christian hypocrisy is Ken Paxton, a man whose wife is divorcing him for adultery, forcing Texas schools to unconstitutionally post "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery." www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...

@pimlicat.bsky.social - CEO of Best for Britain: ⚠️“Stoking fears over immigration as a way to remove our basic rights is right out of the authoritarian playbook We cannot allow the same to happen here. Rights are not something we can trust Farage to rewrite." www.bestforbritain.org/farage_can_t...

"The idea she was the PM's political prisoner, or had an 'unfair trial'? She pled guilty!" Lucy Connolly - jailed for a race-hate post after Southport - is being used to criticise the British judicial system by the right.

The ECHR creates a backstop of legal appeals against changes to UK Laws. Without it the Government could scrap the State Pension, Minimum Wage, Working Hour Limits and Paid Holiday in 1 day and there is nothing you could do. This is exactly what Farage would do.

Making them wear high-visibility vests over camo is such a good joke you couldn’t write it

Lucy Connolly: 1. Committed an offence under legislation brought in by the Thatcher government 2. Pleaded guilty 3. Was sentenced according to guidelines set out by the Johnson government 4. Freedom of speech doesn't extend to incitement to violence 5. 1A to the US Constitution says exactly the same

It's simple, if you throw paint on a plane then you get proscribed and any 80 year olds defending you get arrested. If you ask people to burn down hotels, and they try, you get an interview in the Telegraph and positive coverage in the BBC. That's sensible, proportionate policing.

I really wonder what would need to happen to disrupt the British media‘s current obsession with immigrants. I am serious. What would it take to talk about something else? Putin invading a few more countries? Another Prime Minister being hounded out of office? Global economic collapse? A tidal wave?

Weirdly, the far-right isn’t calling for the burning down of churches, cathedrals, and any building housing members of the Anglican Communion.

My advice to people, take I'm angry at people not being paid as badly as me. And turn it into, I'm angry at being paid badly. Median wage 2008 - £24,769 Median wage 2025 - £29,600 Inflation from 2008-2025 - 70.51%, your wage should be £42,231 We should all be angry.

NEW BLOGPOST: Why did the jury acquit Ricky Jones? thesecretbarrister.com/2025/08/16/w...

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.  That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Read this 👇 thorough debunk of this ATROCIOUS piece of so-called journalism from the Daily Fail, that is now being used by the Conservative Party to attack the very things they oversaw when in government. You couldn't make this up... except that they have! 🙄

Well if £49.18 is a huge sum every Tory & Reform MP & Lord can have their pay reduced to £49.18.

Right now it feels like we all have been doing the same!!!

How precisely does the UK government feel that being a lightweight version of Reform will head off the real thing. People already voting for Reform won't vote for this parody, and people who oppose them will be turned away. Why won't a career barrister step up and make a case for what's right?

“… chatbots such as ChatGPT and Google’s Bard responded to the researchers’ questions with a range of misconceptions and falsehoods about Black patients, sometimes including fabricated, race-based equations…” 💀

Well this is really scary.

How disinformation infects debate: 72% of Britons who want immigrants to leave, and 47% of all Britons, think there are "much more" or "somewhat more" illegal immigrants in Britain vs legal. Numbers? Legal: 10.7m (2022 UK Census) Est. illegal: 750,000 (Oxford Mirrem Project) So, legal 14x higher

I am so beyond missed off at what was supposed to be the more humane alternative to the previous 'nasty' government. Government's should, first and foremost, be FOR things and people. This one is so intent on being defined by what it's AGAINST, it may as well merge with the Tories!!
