Labour's Anas making a... ...well making an arse of it. Appropriately named then!

Not only that, but more than 10 generations of our descendants will be paying tens of £billions for this idea and the radioactive clean-up it makes necessary. Madness. indyposterboy.scot/nuclear-lega...

SMRs ‘Anas Sarwar challenges SNP to support nuclear power to ‘end reliance on dictators like Putin.’ But, it emerges that SMRs require a richer blend of uranium fuel and Putin’s Russia has a complete monopoly on the commercial production of that. talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2025/12/29/t...

Something can be both sad and funny, right? Because the defacement of the Kennedy Center and the financial hit that performers are suffering are both very sad. But Richard Grennell’s temper tantrums are very, very funny. www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

Excuse me while a take a “Trump.” 😂 🤣 🤪 😂 🤣 🤪

This article gives an insight into the close links between Russia, Farage’s connections and MAGA. Also, Nathan Gill, Farage’s friend and colleague, former Brexit Party MEP and Welsh leader of Reform, is now serving a 10.5 years prison sentence for Russian bribes open.substack.com/pub/democrac...

I love the fact ‘fat bastard’ size sold out straight away 🤣

So Reform are using the Made in Britain logo but don’t have permission. The ’factory address is just a one person office’. No rows of weaving machines, no rows of sewing machines. Looks like it is all imported to me. Oh and Reform selling black shirts - that is not going to end well.

God honestly. Doesn’t this just sum up Reform. And their plastic patriotism. Can’t even give a straight answer or follow the rules on their unbelievably naff merch. So on brand. Oh well. You sell or wear one of these, you’ve told us all we need to know about you. (iPaper)

'You shouldn't be getting a medal for being robbed by your own government' 92 year old Betty Brown, the oldest surviving victim of the Post Office IT scandal, told #BBCBreakfast she was 'very honoured, but angry' about being made an OBE in the New Year Honours

Otto, nicely put. It’s worth remembering the folk this doctrine is meant for (see image below) often have very short logic algorithms. Note, the guy on the left is struggling to hold his phone and find his middle finger.

The man who potentially brought down the West by buying X and helping get Trump elected to a second term

US Tech giants and Trump trying to impose their absolutist interpretation of the First Amendment on free speech on us lethal as them trying to impose their crazy Second Amendment gun laws on us. Europeans won’t accept it

3/3 After explaining the impact of a court beyond reach and reform, the article offers a way for States to protect their people and a reminder that the Court’s authority comes from the consent of the governed - without which its rulings become illegitimate as well as irrelevant.

2/3 This paragraph, rather usefully for a non-expert like me, explains the five conditions that maintain the Supreme Court’s position beyond the reach and reform of those affected by its rulings.

1/3 Good article. This paragraph strikes at the heart of the matter. It follows that law from an organisation this corrupted, and doesn’t have the consent of the governed, doesn’t deserve compliance of the governed.

By accepting gifts from billionaires in the hundreds of thousands of dollars while ruling on decisions that directly affect their benefactors, the corrupt SCOTUS has become virtually indistinguishable from their corporate donors. They lost whatever moral and legal authority they had long ago.

"Even if America and Europe are not interested in the war, Russia’s war is very much interested in them," writes Andrew Chakhoyan, an academic director at the University of Amsterdam, in this op-ed.

Here's the CBC News segment where I explain why the Trump-led "peace talks" on the Russo-Ukrainian war are a charade: www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

BREAKING: A Russian newspaper today — “America no longer sees our country as a threat… The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World… he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold that must be destroyed…” Read that again.

As I was saying, Trump isn't a mediator in the Russo-Ukrainian war, he has sided with the russian aggressor.

Reuters continue writing headlines indistinguishable from TASS and RT. Ru is the aggressor and the one rejecting peace every single day since 2014!

for Ukraine and its real allies to look for an alternative framework for negotiations with an objective mediator, or to simply invest fully in seeking Russia’s defeat. www.policymagazine.ca/the-russia-u...

From my latest column: "Ukraine continues its effective military resistance on the battlefield and- shamefully for all of the free world that Donald Trump pretends to lead- now has to take part in the diplomatic charade that Trump and Putin are orchestrating. It is time...

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

They're in the same crime syndicate. It's basically mutual admiration award for a fellow gangster.

They're including the names of some of the victims while redacting the names of the perps. Could Trump make it any more obvious?

Marjorie Taylor Greene must be called to testify before Congress regarding this conversation with Trump about the Epstein files “everyone in the suite of rooms could hear [Trump] yelling at her as she listened to him on speakerphone..According to Greene, Trump replied, ‘My friends will get hurt’”

He knows exactly what he did. Down to the numbers. Don't Let this disappear. EVER 🤬

McSweeney impressing starmer with his analysis of the labout membership that you could get for free by reading the comments on any stephen bush post...never give up children one day you too can be responsible for labour hitting 3rd on polling

Every piece about McSweeney's genius moves are like: McSweeney then said that this group of voters was actually deeply suspicious of "people who poop their pants in public" and only a narrow segment of the public would ever support a public pooper. The MPs he spoke to were deeply impressed.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

The grasshopper gets it — divide and conquer. Today’s robber barons use the same playbook. But together, we have all the power. Watch.

One good thing about me is that my brain works and I don't fall for Orwellian, propaganda nonsense like this. The Israelis are breaking the ceasefire and NBC News is actively running interference to support the Israeli government (as are most other American corporate media outlets).

Israeli human rights group B’Tselem and Amnesty warn Gaza genocide is not over...

Why not attempted murder charges? 📌 NBC News: An Israeli reservist soldier has had his military service terminated after he ran a vehicle into a Palestinian man praying on the side of a road in the West Bank, the Israeli military said, an act they called a “severe violation of his authority.”

🔴‘The Trump Administration Must Abandon Its Delusions About Destroying the EU’ The European Union is far stronger and more united than those inside the Trumpian echo chamber have fooled themselves into believing, argues @alexhh.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/12/12/t...

Brexit’s natural home is the Museum of Failure.

America doesn’t care about Europe any more and it’s left it to Russia as it draws up a new autocratic world order with it and China. Breaking Europe apart with scams like Brexit was the prelude to that. Labour won’t be forgiven for not pushing to mend fences with Europe earlier.

When I see people tweeting about how they tried to like Bluesky and just couldn’t (which is pretty frequent these days) I assume that’s the crushing weight of guilt for propping up a violently misogynistic, white supremacist platform speaking
