As we near the 10th anniversary of Brexit, with evidence the damage to our economy is even worse than predicted, time to remind ourselves of Brexit Battalions ‘Media Corps’ who pushed for and celebrated this. Good time to tag them in. Any apologies?

The best part is that at the very top is an update that this happened again: “Updated February 19 with details of a second AI-related data leak, this one adding 2 million photos and videos to the 1 billion IDs, email and phone numbers already exposed by an AI-powered identity verification service.”

AI is the Torment Nexus, but please replace the phrase "Torment Nexus" with "Vonneguts Asshole." velvetshark.com/ai-company-l...

and you won't be able to see that that's what's happening. the park should not be full of broken glass. you can't just ban children from the play area and call the problem solved. 1) they now have no play area 2) everyone else is still getting cut to ribbons

Now that the Labour party of 2026 pretty much accurately reflect the Tory party of 2022, time to ressurect this from the pits of my hellsite archive.

I want to tax people who don't pay tax; the super rich and powerful. A more balanced system would mean hard working people would pay less.

We knew it wasn’t only ever about immigrants. That’s why the Left has been railing against ICE for over a decade. You lot just kept funding them. You created the tools for the Right to use because that’s what libs do — you’re enablers of fascism. Center-right gobshites without any common sense.

The dangers of disinformation. While the line appears valid, anyone paying attention will notice "Trump takes over" has been placed at Jan 2024, a year before he took over. Yet again it's a no reply/no quote (can't have anyone calling it out).

It's been shocking how obvious and unsubtle The Machine pivoting to "actually, Starmer is just a pure innocent and a victim to circumstance" has been. You could almost physically hear the grind of that gear change.

Pleased to see the jury make this decision. We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries. People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

🔴‘Peter Mandelson’s Fixing of Keir Starmer’s Visit to Spytech Firm Palantir Raises Serious Questions’ Palantir was represented by a lobbying firm founded by Mandelson, Iain Overton and Max Colbert report bylinetimes.com/2025/04/25/p...

This is specifically and exactly why the government wants to ban jury trials. A magistrate would have done exactly what the government wanted.

Don’t know how many more examples it’s going to take for people to realize that billionaires are an existential threat to democracy and its institutions.

The Sensible Centrists are, very sensibly, I'm sure, in full swing denial rather than admit that their leadership is corrupt top to bottom. Telling someone they were wrong for their "the people blaming Starmer of wrongdoing never blamed Boris of anything" led, of course, to an instant block.

If Starmer is serious (he's not, ofc) he'd introduce strict new anti-lobbying laws, bring in firewalls against revolving doors, and undertake a deep, unflinching investigation into financial and influence ties in politics, with criminal sanctions.

It says a lot about how government works in Britain that people will pretend you’re not a massive sleazebag for decades but the moment the calculus shifts to negative they will mobilise every resource to destroy you

Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

I've deleted a post concerning potential AI disinformation as the source was deleted. My post contained an image referencing the original, which would now be counterproductive as it would continue to spread the same disinformation contained within it.

A new survey shows 40%+ of execs say AI saves them 8+ hrs/week while ~2/3 of non-managers say it saves <2 hrs or nothing. This is the second time I’ve seen this split, and it explains the CEO hype vs rank-and-file worker ambivalence. LLMs excel at summaries and email drafts, aka exec busywork.

Compare & contrast. This is Trump’s demand for Greenland. And this is Hitler’s for the Sudetenland. There is no difference. The language. The unstoppable need to dominate. The megalomania. It’s the same. And Keir Starmer’s response is appeasement. We are in that moment. 1/

Keir Starmer did everything he could to be US poodle and his strategy has ended in total humiliation. Both him and Farage are puppets of a hostile foreign nation. It's obvious that if someone is a bully - you don't just keep appeasing them. Disastrous strategy by Labour.

the actual story here is that labour is too chicken-shit to regulate american tech corporations so they're just going to introduce censorship laws instead.

What is the McSweeney government for? The microcosm view: personal advancement for a cabal of middle-class mediocrities. The macrocosm view: protecting Israeli interests and ushering in an authoritarian technocracy.

If the water regulator exists to allow privatised water companies to gouge the public; the energy regulator is there to rubber stamp price hikes and the purpose of the press regulator is to say Tut-tut, but I guess it’s fine: what do we think the purpose of the Equality & Human Rights Commission is?

The BBC is nakedly peddling fake news - and refusing to apologise for doing so - in furtherance of its transphobic agenda. 🧵

right out of the nazi handbook

Jonh Rentoul, sitting in his own faeces, muttering 'rude' at everyone wondering what the smell is

The problem is that Starmer's Labour, the Democrats and their acolytes desperately want to continue with the apolitical, economistic, technocratic style on which they ascended in the '90s, ignoring the fact that politics (and history) are happening, with or without them, and will wash them away.

The year is 2026. Nobody can afford anything because the fruits of everyones labour is funneled off to further the eternal pissing contest of one of the paedophile nazis that own everything, while they threaten to replace you with an environment-destroying autocomplete that steals your ideas.

Originally I meant this in a tongue-in-cheek way, but without falling down a baseless conspiracy rabbit hole, how possible is it that this might be true? Seen in this light, Starmers unpopularity isn't a bug, it's a feature.

This is the canonically the best and only take needed on "journalists" quoting output from Grok on X's child abuse imagery scandal.

I've listened to enough from Labour creeptures that it's now reached the point that you cannot convince me that the Labour Party has not suffered from the worst case of right wing entryism in a generation. Look like Tories, act like Tories, quack like Tories.

The Galaxy Brained Sensibles are having such trouble getting why Starmer is universally loathed cos he's a *cipher for them & their politics* Bt cos they're so convinced abt how marvellous they are they're unable to acknowledge people don't actually like their economics of despair & politics of lies

I just happened to witness a YouTube sponsored advert blaming "The Deep State" for "planned electricity outages and rationing" It seems like AI vendors are happy to play an extremely dangerous game, acting to destabilize society just to deflect and spin the blame for AI datacenters.

Right wing politics, ladies and gentlemen: asset-stripping the wealth of nations for decades, hoarding it in offshore bank accounts, then telling you that the poorest people in the country are to blame for the stripped out infrastructure and the key to national success is described in Mein Kampf.

"Whenever people keep being given a platform to say they have no platform, or whenever people speak endlessly about being silenced, you not only have a performative contradiction; you are witnessing a mechanism of power". Sara Ahmed

Do I think he's worse, as an individual? No idea, I've met neither of them. Do I think he's a worse Prime Minister, judged by policy? Yes. While there's been small good that neither the Tories or Reform would offer, it goes hand in hand with a massive regressive push that is, frankly, frightening.

Today's UK Online Safety Act annoyance: I'm no longer allowed to view a (boring, technical, safe-for-work) screen recording *that I made* for a bug report, because the easiest way for the image-hosting service to comply with the new law is to give up on UK users: bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour...

Officials in Tennessee aren't just banning books, they're now demanding information on who checked out contested (largely LGBTQ+) books, including names, addresses, and "household composition." A librarian who was given the directive has come forward asking for whistleblower protections.

MPs laughed when Jake Richards dismissed Jeremy Corbyn’s request for a meeting on the Palestine Action hunger strikers. Laughed. This is who we’re governed by, people entrusted to represent a nation, yet so insulated by power they respond to human suffering with indifference and mockery.

I'm older than you and they're right. Starmer has been the worst PM in my lifetime. His Government is introducing harmful policies that would have been beyond the pale even for previous Tory Governments. And he's laying perfect groundwork for an overtly fascist regime next time. And this:

No, ChatGPT is not conscious. Are the journalists who keep writing these fucking articles?

I've never seen a thread quite so replete with such blatantly obvious strawmen. Not even trying to be serious at this point, just working that shaft for money.

The cruelty is the point.

Labour policy is being celebrated by Tommy Robinson. That's it. That's all you ever need to say to explain who Labour are.

The Labour Government reeling off the same far-right talking points on immigration. And look who is celebrating. The far-right. There is a political alternative that won’t ever scapegoat those fleeing war, persecution and torture join.greenparty.org.uk

Seem to be an awful lot of "centrist" dipshits right now insisting inflation is the be all and end all of politics and nothing else matters at the ballot box. With the budget coming up, I'm sure it's not due to vested interests and trying to influence policy, right?
