Thank you @zackpolanski.bsky.social for giving us so much this year. Happy Christmas!

Simon groans every time I share this but I love it! HAPPY CHRISTMAS everyone! #GeorgeMichael #LastChristmas #indiemusic

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! May all your Christmas wishes come true! xxx

Single handedly just put the ‘Great’ back into Britain 😂🫡

True. Why won't people blame outrageous greed as THE problem?

Kinda liking Grok right now 😂😂😂

This is almost beyond comprehension. Am guessing they’d prefer gun control to a second round of thoughts and prayers.

What a man! What a leader! #slavaukraini 🇺🇦

With a small number of exceptions, it’s always women calling out Trump’s misogynistic attacks on women journalists doing their job. When are the men going to join the party and speak out or leave the room next time Trump attacks a female colleague? #trump #misogyny #journalism

Alexa, Show me the effect of corporate greed.

14 years on and a good time to revisit this @mrjamesob.bsky.social interview with Nigel ‘whataboutery’ Farage. At risk of incurring Farage wrath for speaking a foreign language, could this possibly be the month of deja vu?

my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing. they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors. their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen. their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

He’s bang on and I wish that all European governments would be as honest.

Can’t wait for this!

Like a 5 year old getting a school merit badge. The President of the United States, Leader of the free world. Embarrassing and pitiful beyond compare.

Watching the President receive the FIFA Peace Prize, I'm struggling to think of a more obvious attempt at placating/grovelling to a tyrannical man-baby than by giving him an entirely made-up award that makes literally no sense whatsoever.

How I picture Zack and Daisy leaving the #bbcqt studio tonight. Thank you. You were magnificent! @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @libdemdaisy.bsky.social

I don’t understand who would leak this kind of info and why. Everyone knows Putin & Trump don’t need encouragement. Surely @theguardian.com @spiegel.de don’t want to further endanger Ukraine? With so much at stake (literally world peace) why are loose lips risking sinking ships?

A genius way to expose greenwashing. Bravo Ollie! @olifro.st #socgen #societegenerale

2 in 3 of Nigel Farage’s current and former partners do not speak English as their first language.

Boom!

In case you needed even more motivation to vote in the Midterm elections... #AccountabilityIsComing

the only thing Rachel Reeves needs to do for more favourable coverage on BBC News is threaten to sue them for £1 billion

Keir Starmer, "Tax rises do make life harder for people, I understand that, it's obvious" It's also obvious that a wealth tax of 1% on those with £10m+ would NOT make life harder for the rich - thats also obvious 🤷‍♂️

The World needs more of this. And she’s right, through their silence the other journalists were complicit.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

What an incredible life and career this amazing man has had and what a powerful last report. Thank you for everything Paul. We hear you and we’ll keep on fighting ❤️ @theguardian.com #environment

Takes a few seconds and this is definitely needed so please do your bit. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

Has the BBC decided freedom of speech is no longer worth the hassle? Every BBC license payer should listen to this and decide if they want to pay for a service where moral cowardice and censorship of guests speaking truth to power is the norm. #bbc @rutgerbregman.com @newsagents.bsky.social

Dale stating the bleeding obvious. Such a shame it’s not the bleeding obvious to our PM and chancellor.

President Macron: "We want peace,but we don’t want a peace that is in fact a capitulation- meaning one that puts #Ukraine in an impossible situation,that gives Russia complete freedom to continue,to go further,including towards other Europeans,to put the security of all of us in danger,"he said.

"I think as a percentage of GDP, we're ranking behind Canada in our support for Ukraine." Trump's former National security advisor John Bolton gives his thoughts on Trump’s Ukraine-Russia peace plan and if the US should appease Putin. #Newsnight

Let’s start calling it as it is please. Russia is not murdering and kidnapping Ukrainians at their invitation. #slavaukraini

Not surprised. The heat in France this year & last was brutal and we watched grapes turning into raisins on the vine. There are now gaps where vines used to be. So many main party politicians bemoan the cost of taking climate action but none of them acknowledge the cost of not taking it.

NEW There's no overstating how significant the Nathan Gill case is. On Friday, the close associate of Nigel Farage was jailed for over 10 years for taking bribes ultimately from a friend of Putin. It's a complex, detail-heavy story that raises questions about Farage’s claim Gill was ‘one bad apple’🧵

Call me old fashioned but since when did chancellors start seeking the ‘popular path’ like they’re trying not to get voted out of a reality TV show?

Seems a good time to get this circulating again youtu.be/bf725n9KILA?...

Baroness Jones, "The problem is that labour have not created enough safe managed routes" "If we had safe managed routes people could come here, justify their arrival, start to work, start to pay tax, start to create business" "And actually be a huge benefit to our society"

I keep hearing respected journos say the British people want tough measures to resolve the immigration ‘problem’. Who are they asking and where do they find them? I’ve voted in every election since age 18 and no one has ever surveyed me about my political opinions. Am I unusual?

Zack echoing the fury of every decent British person today. Thank you Zack 👏👏👏

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

This looks very much like a rat fleeing a sinking ship. This particular rat needs to be held accountable for so many abominable acts. Lets start with her arranging her husband’s disgusting attack on Zelenskyy in the White House 😡

2 weeks ago I lost Treacle. She was under my desk at work, beside my bed at night & there when I traveled. She even fell in love with Simon before I did. Every day was unconditional love. I’ve never experienced grief like this. Thank God no-one has been stupid enough to say ‘she was only a dog’.

Great post. I hope to God she’s right!
