Yeah, yeah. I know. America is important. But I'm so fucking sick of it absolutely dominating the UK news cycle. I get it. You voted in a turd and now you're swimming in fascist shit. But we have our own rightwing wanklord problems that need more national coverage.

Rory McIlroy has donated his entire $10.9 million bonus from the Ryder Cup 2025 and sponsorship earnings to fund a series of homeless support centers in Northern Ireland, his hometown area. The initiative will help create 150 housing units and 300 shelter beds for those in need.

Decent goal that, to be fair

The Chief of Staff for the French Army, Gen. Pierre Schill, has stated that forces must be ready "as early as tonight" for high-intensity warfare, warning of a potential direct military confrontation in the near future with Russia over the defense of a NATO Ally in Eastern Europe.

Come on the Toon!

How not to illustrate the similarity of bone structures between humans & horses.

If you're rich and need to dodge tax, then you're not as rich as you say you are. You're just cheating - like being top of the class but only because you were "smart" enough to sneak the textbook in. You're just screwing over the rest of the class/country who actually work hard

Israel is committing genocide, is a legal fact.

I see Charlie Kirk is still dead:

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

Rayner made a mistake yes, but it also perfectly shows that the working class can't get away with anything while the rich keep avoiding tax like the plague. She avoided tax through negligence and pays a high price. Billionaires avoid tax intentionally and carry on as normal.

ECHR offers protection against unfair dismissal from work, protects pension rights, maternity leave rights and protects women getting divorced. People who think it's a good idea to leave should be ridiculed like flat-earthers. The ignorance is astounding.

Ha! He’s nailed Farage’s there! The hypocrisy, double-talk, contradiction and nonsense of Farage laid bare. Absolutely spot on too - Raskin has excoriated him there in a way British media largely, and shamefully, does not… #Farage

Never liked that cunt, Milner

Via Full Fact -

My advice to people, take I'm angry at people not being paid as badly as me. And turn it into, I'm angry at being paid badly. Median wage 2008 - £24,769 Median wage 2025 - £29,600 Inflation from 2008-2025 - 70.51%, your wage should be £42,231 We should all be angry.

Rayan Cherki scores less than 10 minutes after coming on for his debut and the rout is on for Manchester City. ‼️

If you had $1 for every year the UNIVERSE has existed, you wouldn't even make the top 100 on the Forbes list. (you'd be 191st) Tax the rich, or eat them, whatever floats your boat.

Worth reading this short thread. Darren is an amazing man and really did break new ground with The Osbournes.

Let’s be clear why there’s a “tsunami” of pensioner poverty ▪️ Final salary pensions destroyed (but MPs kept theirs) ▪️ Council homes sold off, many pensioners now at the mercy of rip-off rents ▪️ Wages suppressed for decades while profits soared This is what 40 years of non-stop Thatcherism gets you

What a test-match! Well played, England. Well played India! Ben Stokes… talismanic

That ghoul Tebbitt will not be missed

Bob Vylan and Kneecap are the problem 🤔

"When 8 men have more money than 4 billion people combined, folks relying on food stamps or Medicaid aren't the problem."

Awful news about Diogo Jota. His family must be devastated

Italy court sends 11 executives at a chemical plant to jail terms of up to 17 years for polluting water, a total of more than 141 years. Puts UK to shame. UK buries corporate crimes - water, Post Office, Grenfell, infected blood, bank frauds. Govts/Regulators serve corporations, not people.

Well, that was shit, but at least they can get a couple of weeks extra rest. It's been a long, long season

Was Rodri injured? 😕

This is a gaslighting FREE-ZONE #FreePalestine #auspol #PalestinianHolocaust #IsraelIsATerroristState #Glastonbury #BobVylan

It’s okay to admit it was wrong.

This is a barn-stormer. The part about Keir Starmer is boggling.

So they want us to believe it's about nuclear weapons. As ever it's about Western greed.

Iranian culture and history is actually some of the oldest in the world and that 250 year old brat of a country is once again bombing away our world heritage.

Sure as eggs, up she flails…

Kier Starmer… please grow a backbone FFS 🙄

🚨 “Not For EU” Label. Check your asparagus. 🇲🇽 Mexican asparagus in @sainsburys may be grown with pesticides banned in the EU, including carbofuran and paraquat. 🥵 No EU label = No EU safety standards. 🇬🇧 Post-Brexit, UK rules are weaker. 🧪 Lower testing. Less traceability. More risk.

The BBC is explicitly, consciously pivoting right to pander to a party with just 5 MPs. Where's the outrage? Where's the coverage?! They are converting our national broadcaster into a mouthpiece for the far right and no one is doing anything about it! bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...

I'm old enough to remember when the BBC was a synonym for professional, accurate, intelligent programming. Now it's becoming a mouthpiece for far right gobshites.

Gary lineker sends parting shot to BBC with George Orwell poem

@channel4news.bsky.social so you going to do a huge report on the Lib Dems, Greens, Scottish Greens, SNP and Plaid later this week? They’ve all got lots to say. And why are you busy framing a GE 4 years out? Demand plural coverage now. Sign here petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

CBS reporter Scott Pelley: This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”. If you haven’t already shared this, please do.
