Dark.

Objectively false. Daft, performative nonsense unless it's also a pathway to people pointlessly shuttered in hotels to be able to work.

'US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that the US is considering a USD20 billion ($30.0 billion) swap line with Argentina and that it is prepared to buy the South American country’s dollar bonds.' Remember this if Europe ever has a dollar shortage. www.capitalbrief.com/briefing/us-...

Farage: "when it comes to science, I don’t side with anybody." I mean, he really should. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

In April Bessent - when asked - said a credit line to Argentina was "not under consideration." "...as this administration...stays the course on their economic policies they should eventually have enough foreign exchange inflows..." Chainsaw economics failed. 2:45: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuNo...

Too much news getting missed because of American noise pollution. E.g. "The company has been unable to produce cars since the cyber attack at the end of August forced it to shut down its IT networks, and fears are growing that the company's suppliers could go bust" www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Does any1 know what Zia Yusuf's problem is?

BBC's top 5 visited pages - 4/5 are indicative of a psychosis.

It's a shame for the resort to the season that Lando Norris choked in qualifying. #F1 #Azerbaijangp

Half a second off per sector is disgraceful for Tsunoda. #F1 #Azerbaijangp

Chris Mason: Delight and relief in government after state visit CNN: all for what?

Rubbish. We've spent 20 years failing to raise growth and some dude comes along saying he can plug in the thick end of 2% growth a year. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The photo. The banner. Don't get it. And I don't just mean the outfits. There must be a mass psychosis going on amongst the very online nutjob right.

"Charles who is now King is my friend" "They've never used Windsor castle before...they say Windsor Castle is the ultimate..." Jesus wept.

It's claimed that Trump is annoyed that Mandelson was fired before his "good vibes" trip to have tea with The King. Doesn't understand how he can't shake Epstein.

What this country needs is a ketamine addict telling a bunch of coke heads to overthrow the government!

What's Peter Kyle going on about the financial crisis for like it's relevant?

Many thanks to those who wrote in here and elsewhere to note that Elon Musk is also calling for a civil war in the United Kingdom, now. I just do not know where all this leads—but I have the same fear you all do.

Eff off back to where you came from. People used to say stuff like this in the 80s. It's like - is that seriously the best you can come out with.

First I heard about it was when welders came home saying ‘there’s people painting white crosses on black people’s doors on our street’. Fucking disgusting. That’s what it is. And that’s what politicians need to call it

Not certain how obvious this is to non-Brits, but every single person pictured at far-right marches in England looks like somebody you would cross the road to avoid on a Friday night, especially if they were in a group.

Anyone heard from the Prime Minister?

When I moved to the U.S., almost 20 years ago, there were two things I thought the country had over "Europe": freedom of speech and optimism. Both have been killed by the far right.

Ppl have taken their poor kids for a day out to this. You can't choose your parents.

"Keir Starmer needs to be assassinated, someone needs to shoot Keir Starmer." I think this might be incitement to violence rather than Free Speech.

FWIW, I think Klein's piece is unnecessarily complimentary about Kirk's achievements. Just as it undesirable to speak ill of of the recently dead, it is not obligatory to be nice about them. But the fundamental truth in that final line is what matters.

If you haven't read the news for a few days you'll have no idea what this is about or why you're being pushed it.

I think that should be enough of the wall to wall coverage of the Kirk murderer manhunt on British sites. I would understand if he was an elected official (to my surprise he isn't) or well known here. The BBC and Sky are particularly egregious offenders here.

The suspected shooter is white, but that is irrelevant, as it was always about the racism.

"Starmer allies, trying to shift the blame from the prime minister, suggest it was his chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney, who was instrumental in the original appointment and who pushed to defend him this week." Funny how much that name comes up. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Let's not be daft #F1

🇵🇱‼️🇭🇺

Through his clownish weakness & mendacity, Trump has already incited: 1. Russia to intensify its bombing of Ukraine. 2. Russia to start bombing NATO member Poland. Does Article 5 exist any longer? 3. Israel to bomb Qatar. With Trump as president, the US is no superpower.

The White House appeared to contradict Binyamin Netanyahu’s assertion that America knew about the attack beforehand ⬇️

I’ve written about the way Donald Trump tells lies – and why it so often doesn’t matter – since I wrote Post-Truth in 2017. Saying this didn’t exist is the single stupidest lie he’s ever told. It’s visual. It’s simple. The picture would always emerge. And crucially, his supporters care about this.

Nigel Farage's hero.

“It’s a fair assessment. It’s a bit of a funny sport,” he said. “I am struggling to comprehend how Verstappen can be 40 seconds off the win and Bahrain, and then win by 20 seconds here and at Imola. It’s pretty impressive. ---- Monza and Hungary can be jokers. #F1 www.crash.net/f1/news/1081...

While Russell has burnt up his tires chasing Leclerc and has to pit early before Hamilton gets into his DRS. Be interesting to see if Hamilton has the tyre life to keep a higher pace than Russell. #F1 #italiangp

Hopeless performance from Tsunoda yesterday and today. #F1 #italiangp

Hamilton seems to be actively holding back. #F1 #italiangp

More than 400 people have been arrested at the Defend Our Juries protest against the ban of Palestine Action in Westminster Police said the majority of arrests were for "supporting a proscribed organisation" but more than 25 people were arrested for assaulting police www.nytimes.com/2025/09/06/w...

Tsunoda's lap time delta to Verstappen : Q1: 0.05 Q2: 0.3 Q3: 0.7 #F1 #italiangp No amount of slipstream would have solved that problem. www.formula1.com/en/video/p10...

Final sector for Hamilton was immense #FP1 #italiangp #F1

Had to.

Immigration is the 6th biggest issue for Americans and the 3rd amongst Republicans (behind inflation and jobs/the economy). Yes it's the centerpiece or Trumpism.

Not often Hamilton stuff it on his own. Collectors edition #F1 #DutchGP
