Two big opposing rallies in Hungary today. Orban’s pro-Russia one got fewer than 30k. His rival Peter Magyar got more than 200K.

Refuk’s fiscal prudence appears to extend only as far as their next vanity project, their Nottinghamshire council leader, Mick Barton, blew £75,000 on flags while public services rot. It’s less ‘responsible governance’ and more an extravagant circle-jerk of faux patriotism at the taxpayer’s expense.

Our planet’s first catastrophic climate tipping point reached, report by 160 scientists from 23 countries warns, with coral reefs facing ‘widespread dieback www.theguardian.com/environment/...

“You described Reform and other parties across Europe today as among the 'right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s'. Why?” “Because that’s what they are” @vicderbyshire.bsky.social asks Lord Heseltine about remarks he made at Conservative Party Conference. #Newsnight

Am wondering if all of those suddenly deciding they’re against communities living “parallel lives” might reconsider their support of religious schools? Or indeed private ones?

I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian. Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kunesberg during their conference. Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say? Let's keep growing: join.greenparty.org.uk

The Jarrow Crusade, in which 200 unemployed men marched to London calling for government intervention to restore jobs, began on this day 1936. Unsuccessful at the time, but helped to shape postwar attitudes to employment and social justice.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social is asked about the Home Secretarys comments that yesterdays protests about Israels actions were dishonourable (she also said they were unBritish). Zack is spot on.

Not all Muslims are terrorists. Not all Jews are terrorists . Not all Christians are terrorists. Let’s not forget this

So was *The Sun* ‘inciting violence’ against Nigel Farage in 2014 when its editorial described his racist comments on my show as ‘racism, pure and simple’? And would somebody who interviews these ghouls on a regular basis at least ask them this question!

Please RT this so Donald Trump sees.

Useful reminder from Peter Kellner on the problems we refuse to acknowledge are getting better, and the politics of hopelessness that this breeds open.substack.com/pub/kellnerp...

Wow GMB on a roll this morning. Kirk supporters are ‘disciples’, October 7th was a pogrom & Journalist Stapleton’s family have superior genes . The hyperbole is astounding

My Gramma used to say, "Honey, when someone shows you who they are, believe them."

Thank you for coming to my Teddy talk.

"Just your regular reminder that public ownership is hugely popular in the UK" via @weownit.org.uk ... including with actual & potential Reform voters not yet aware that Farage & his billionaire backers want even MORE privatisation including dismantling what's left of our NHS #SocialistSunday

Just days after Fox News host Brian KILLmeade called for euthanizing homeless people, there has been a mass shooting at a homeless encampment in Minneapolis.

The man who killed Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their dog Gilbert was also a Trump supporter.

The Charlie Kirk assassination is that little dot on the map of gun deaths in 2025.

🚨 BREAKING: GANTRY CLIMBERS NOT GUILTY A jury found Sam, Isobel and Rachel not guilty of public nuisance at Guilford Crown Court today, after they climbed gantries above the M25 in 2022. The jury decided they had a reasonable excuse for taking action.

I don’t give a shit if JD Vance doesn’t give a shit about the Constitution. Striking civilian boats in international waters is both unconstitutional and a war crime. The party of “law and order” clearly doesn’t care about respecting it.

In the past 24 hours, Israel has bombed: • Palestine (Gaza) • Syria (Homs, Latakia, Palmyra) • Lebanon (Hermel, Bekaa) •Tunisia (aid flotilla) and now • Qatar (Doha)

Don’t let this image be covered up

Aaaand they’ve just covered it up. Which is just another layer of irony… …given that this is state action against protest about state action against protest.

This is called scattering. Particulates in the air turns the sun through phases of red. “Red skies at night.” It’s about wavelengths and light. It’s not a good sign.

Wonder if this will get the same coverage as Angela Rayner's stamp duty...

A little bit of perspective on Angela Rayner: www.theguardian.com/uk-news/arti...

We’ve arrived at a place where we now can feel confident in the knowledge that Epstein and Maxwell were running much more than trafficking. Yes, Trump is running scared but I believe it’s way worse than raping young girls. I’m guessing Epstein Trump Maxwell and Melania were/are on foreign payrolls!

resistance through art

Nigel Farage is unpatriotic. Nigel Farage has reportedly flown across the Atlantic to call for economic sanctions against Britain. Nothing could be less patriotic than actively encouraging a foreign power to take action to make the British people poorer.

This is vile. Local guy speaks to Sky News about the impact of asylum seekers protests. Watch what happens and share widely

Farage flies to US to complain about UK but gets absolutely torn to shreds in his introduction metro.co.uk/video/farage...

One could interpret military flyovers purposefully scheduled by Trump for this time and unrelated to any other major event as an implied threat to the survivors. Nothing says “I will wield the full force of the federal government against you to try to silence you” quite like a military display.

@kemibadenochmp.bsky.social What a complete soulless hypocrite you are.

Government are proposing a ban on sales of energy drinks to kids. We applaud this. Ministers say they want to shift the focus from treatment to prevention. Sign here and tell them to go further and faster on reining in #BigFood. 👇 https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/make-sugar-the-new-tobacco

This should be headline news - the implications are horrifying …

I was shocked when I first saw these results from standard climate models used in IPCC reports: for high emissions, the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC shuts down in all 9 models that ran past 2100, and is well on the way to shutdown by 2100. Our paper on that is out today.🧵

The Taliban has said it is “ready and willing” to work with Nigel Farage. Just think about that www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/202...

So anti-vaxxers have gone from “My body my choice” to “No Covid vaccines for anybody.” newrepublic.com/post/199515/...

It’s clear who’ll sort the Tory shitshow. And it sure as fuck isn’t the ugly twat guzzling gin with Russian oligarchs and slobbering round the global elite, but Labour’s Security Minister Dan Jarvis, who served in the Parachute Regiment. #ukpolitics

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.
