Please do not embarrass Farage by reposting his 'Happy Birthday Mr President' tweet. Be careful not to draw attention to the fact that he's holding a bottle of Trump wine, it would make him look like a fawning sycophant, and we wouldn't want to do that ... would we?

Matt is doing an excellent job here of convincing us that he is in absolutely no way bitter at all about his failure as an academic.. 😉

Mark Kermode is a Brit film critic (if you are not aware of him, he also writes books on cinema). A listener offered a donation to charity if he went to see it. Spoiler alert : he didn't like it. youtu.be/DTyUni8dbkE?...

When the BBC get it right, they get it really right. This is an important article about the murdered victims on Vladyslav Heraskevych's banned helmet. The fact that some are children makes the IOC decision even more despicable. - www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is good news. It would be a mistake if Labour MPs bowed to pressure from the Tory press to oust Starmer.

Some of us are old enough to remember this from Badenoch…

@inspiralcarpets.bsky.social Amazing what you can find when sorting through your singles!

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

17 breaches of the MP’s code of conduct. 30+ past allegations of racism. Still not answering Qs about Nathan Gill. Still not answering Qs about Russian influence. Still not answering Qs about his Clacton home. Still taking sides with Trump. The least patriotic man in Britain

I’m confused by some of the posts on this site. Do people want Starmer to act in concert with the EU when it comes to Greenland or not? Because if they do then they need to stop comparing Starmers approach to Carney’s.

Brilliant!

As if he’s that thin

Putin is pleased.

Poor Honest Bob 😂

There's always a tweet ...

There's always a tweet. In this case, one so embarrassing that the original tweet Zahawi was responding to has been deleted.

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

“Let’s be clear about this scandal: Birmingham City Council’s so-called bankruptcy was caused by catastrophic miscalculations & errors at its pension fund & the huge contributions it demanded from the Council. This dwarfs the Oracle & Equal Pay disasters.” blogsfromtheblackstuff.com//bftbblog260...

This is how Labour have spent the last 18 months. Laying the foundations to their 10 year plan to improve our Country. Making it safer, wealthier and more tolerant. A toast to Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves. More of this in 2026!!

In the past month 3 transport routes have collapsed - but they aren't roads so don't make national news. All 3 have the same root causes, climate change, and Tory austerity passing responsibility for critical infrastructure on to charities and councils. This will happen more, and people will be hurt

While in the 6th form, Nigel Farage would smoke on the "Belsen Bus", when a black person appeared on screen, would loudly exclaim, "Are you English?", repeated chants of the National Front: "The National Front is the white man's front", and "There ain't no black in the union jack".

Well done #EnglandCricket, we have only travelled half way around the world to watch day 3 of Ashes test in Perth 🤣

It is indisputable that Brexit has been an economic disaster, and notable that none of its political architects have paid any price.

The Covid Inquiry’s findings are devastating. So many families suffered unimaginable loss, and their experiences must never be forgotten. We must take these findings seriously and ensure we are far better prepared for the future. My thoughts are with all those who suffered.

Nine bands for a tenner. Four venues packed with Cambridge talent over 3 weekends. Every note played helps save one of Britain’s last great free summer festivals – the Strawberry Fair. Details ⤵️

Donald Trump’s demand for a billion dollars from the BBC comes from a local Florida law firm. It was sent to the wrong address, and the writer didn’t know what ‘salacious’ really means: ‘Due to their salacious nature, the fabricated statements that were aired by the BBC…’

Ha. Some just said these tweet was a lot of words to say 'arsehole'. So I fixed that

#RachelReeves Yes Prits! Apart from cocking up Covid, Implementing Brexit, Partying whilst people died, Cutting local Govt funding by 40%, Running down public services And increasing levels of poverty. We Conservatives were NEVER business bashing, job destroying or law breaking!

Labour are delivering actions, not words. Here is PM telling you just a little bit of what they've done in the last week.

@thecharlatans.bsky.social Simply stunning!

@thecharlatans.bsky.social Album on the way and tickets bought for Norwich as no Cambridge gig this time. Not been to Norwich so looking forward to it 👍
