Starmer slinging that civil servant under the bus was the latest in a cluster of data points demonstrating that expediency, cynicism and disloyalty trump honour, responsibility and accountability. The slimiest, most conniving and utterly unprincipled PM since er…the last Tory one

The market correction at the end of Trump’s term is gonna be catastrophic.

Here’s an idea: parachute Bibi and Donald into downtown Tehran to speak to the Iranians in person about their policy decisions. One (unarmed) bodyguard each, obviously

My grade 3 piano exam was a massive disappointment. Some howling fuck ups during the pieces, despite daily practise. Now we wait.

Been looking forward to this @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Isabel Oakeshott always looks like she’s sucking on something she hasn’t decided she likes the taste of yet...

I guess the Board of Peace got bored of peace

@zackpolanski.bsky.social changing his name to reclaim it from anti-semites isn’t even in the same fucking postcode as Steve the Waxy Lemon changing his as a marketing stunt to improve his appeal to nostalgia-drunk flag shaggers…

Farage’s bleating about ‘family voting’ and ‘an Islamist victory’ in G&D seems not to have correlated the blatantly anti-Muslim stance of his party with their poor performance in that demographic

Clear message to Starmer. Don’t chase Reform to the bottom for 20% of the vote. Be progressive, left of centre and environmentally focused for 35% of the vote. Oh yeah, and do better on social media, you’re losing to the bot farms.

The Greens win Gorton and Denton. @zackpolanski.bsky.social - well done Seeing the shit-eating grin get wiped off Farage’s face is gonna be delicious

People of Manchester, fuck Reform. Please vote Green!

Is this turkey tail please?

Giving this one some love tonight

Can any of Kier Starmer’s advocates explain how and why Andy Burnham should be blocked from becoming an MP? Genuinely interested in the rationale

I’ve always thought that stones and pounds were an inbred system of measurement, but 10lbs does sound better than 4.5kg Oh yeah, the new eating regime is going well…

One of the best things about the internet is that it’s very easy to claim credit for things you had no part in. It’s one of the reasons I invented the internet.

The differences between Carney and Trump’s speeches at Davos were…stark

I just found out that Melania met Donald when he was out on a date with ‘Celina Midelfart’, heir of a Norwegian fortune. The fact that there was nearly a Midelfart-Trump union fills me with more glee than I can possibly describe…

“French intelligence, working with Ukraine, deliberately fed false high-level intelligence to Trump’s regime to test whether it would leak. That information quickly surfaced in Russian channels, confirming their worst fears” www.meidasplus.com/p/sunday-aft...

The Bone Temple looks like A Clockwork Orange. I’m not keen

Odds are Kate Hoey to join Reform. Associated with Arron Banks, Eurosceptic, pro handgun, anti immigration. She was left wing by association, not by belief. Another spiteful, cynical, hatchet faced opportunist for Nigel’s battalion of bastards

If you poured boiling water over the Reform Party, you’d have a new favour for Pot Noodle

I’m gonna open an ‘80s glam rock themed delicatessen and call it ‘Jambon Jovi’s’

Anyone nodding in approval at Jenrick joining Reform should remember his unlawful involvement in a £45m tax dodge with one of his property developer mates.

I often wonder if the only way you know how loved you were as a child is when you have kids yourself

ABRSM Grade 3 piano 🎹 in 2 months. Fuuuck

Looking at US foreign and domestic policy right now, I wonder how much of it is Trump at his most sociopathic, lobbyists at their most influential, or economists screaming histrionically that the dollar is inches from collapse and only sledgehammer politics can save it. Probably a bit of each…

Trumpty Dumpty sat on a wall…

Despite Laila Cunningham’s dubious political allegiances, she’s an extremely talented speaker. I have faith in London’s resistance to rabble-rousers, but I’m concerned that Reform is developing enough clout to field credible candidates endorsing awful causes

The psychopathic bully states are decloaking. US in Venezuela, eyeing Greenland. Israel eyeing Lebanon and the whole ME. Messrs Putin and Jinping? Your move.

Who the fuck would go to an AI engine and ask it to create images of an adult without their clothes on? Even less, a child? Why is Musk so quiet about it?? Where are Grok’s guardrails for this?

Trump’s grab for Venezuelan oil is the latest in a long line of attempts to preserve the sovereignty of the dollar. Short version, Maduro has been transacting oil in Yuan and crypto, and China isn’t interested in government bonds. This means the US is $3tn in the hole and the dollar is dying

People of America, for the love of God, DO SOMETHING

Venezuela has 300 billion barrels, bro

My prayers are with the hunger strikers remanded without bail, and my admiration for their resolve in pursuing free speech. Heba Muraisi is close to death, and it‘s a travesty.

I’m coming to believe that a person’s attitude to Shamima Begum is a litmus for their politics *and* their personality

Happy New Year Blue Skiers! May the far right on both sides of the pond incriminate itself into irrelevance in 2026

So if I make a disparaging comment about Trump in here, then I can avoid mandatory stateside work events for five years? Just checking, you vulva-necked orange travesty…

This is brilliant bylinetimes.com/2025/12/10/n...

Kier Starmer - “I’ve always wanted a Labour government but I’ve never worried about the future of our country under a Tory government” I want a PM with Nye Bevan’s opinion of Tories: ‘Vermin’

The new US security strategy absolutely in accord with Russia’s aims in Europe, coupled with Russian assets in both the European and (arguably) the British Parliaments could be the greatest example of geopolitical sleight of hand in history. When Farage said he admired Putin, I think I know why now

With Labour rendering themselves unelectable for a generation, The Green Party needs one thing now: redundancy. It needs more capable speakers like @zackpolanski.bsky.social and Rachael, and an unshakable commitment to core principles I’d even say it could really use @zarahsultana.bsky.social too

Farage’s history of racism Is patently a dead cat. We need to talk about RUSSIA

Given that he’s widely known to hate it from his school days, I don't understand why people don’t pronounce his name ‘Fromage’

“Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel” Samuel Johnson, 1775

Jeremy Corbyn has solid Democratic Socialist convictions, but he’s a mealy-mouthed cocksucker. Describing his relationship with Sultana he managed to sound slimy, just like when he patently lied about calling Theresa May a ‘stupid woman’ The tattered remains of the left need to regroup. Quickly.

Nathan Gill - “poking the Russian bear is very dangerous.” Nigel Farage - “when you poke the Russian bear with a stick don’t be surprised when he reacts” Nathan Gill is in prison Nigel Farage is not. Can anyone help me out here?

‘Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken’ is simultaneously the saddest, most hopeless and yet optimistic line in all of pop…

Telling racists that the person they most admire used to be *even more* shamelessly racist is a waste of time
