The idea of “imported” violence against women and girls is a deeply comforting fiction - one that allows people to avoid looking at where it actually happens: within our homes and behind closed doors.

If he wants them back, he can stop invading Ukraine at any time

The 6 richest men in the world are all Trump allies. They control your algorithms and data on X, TikTok, Twitch, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Threads, and YouTube. Just in case you’re wondering why more isn’t done to stop right-wing bots and misinformation on social media.

Cheating, again??? bsky.app/profile/repb... Whoda thought 🙃

I see the peace negotiations are going well. The EU needs to take all that Russian money (Russian state mob cash) and give it to Ukraine. If Orban vetoes it send him back to Putin with a one way ticket as he is a Putin owned asset. The same with Fico. If they object put them in a diplomatic bag.

Maria Shriver, niece of JFK: He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial. C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

Imagine how many times Trump's name appears if it has taken them this long to do the redactions!!!!

Exactly because Orban and Fico should be forced out of the room during the discussions. They are both Kremlin owned agents.

"This raises bigger questions about the future. What do young Scots want beyond Brexit? Some see independence as the route back into Europe. Others want to focus on reforming Britain as a whole. What is clear is that young people do not want to be left out of the conversation again."

impeach the orange paedophile. . . yes, lock him up!! grubby little scum-man #Trump

how much longer, eh! like Dylan's verses about a pony named Lucifer! we're on the verge of hell . . .

I'll say it again "no vision, no passion" . . . that's it! #Starmer must go

“People rightly and rationally realise that mainstream politicians aren’t being honest with them, and they become sceptical or even cynical. That in turn leads them to look for something different – often looking towards populists, sometimes on the left but much more often on the right.”

I know, I know, is it because they're not really terrorists? news.sky.com/story/terror...

If Americans are going to be spending substantially more on health care then they are going to be spending substantially less on everything else. This looks a policy designed to induce a major economic crisis.

New article from me today about the new study of Finland's basic income experiment that found recipients of unconditional income had 33% better mental health than the control group that got the same amount of money with conditions. I also dive into a lot of other evidence about UBI and mental health

Two legal opinions prepared by international lawyers contradict Belgium's claim it could be on the hook to pay substantial damages if the EU moves ahead with plans to use Russia's frozen assets to help Ukraine.

When you offer Russia peace they don’t see peace, they see weakness and someone leaving themselves open to strike again. Peace with Russia cannot happen without overwhelmingly crushing the Kremlin and asserting dominance. That’s the nature of fascist regimes and death cults.

Great! Now do a Customs Union!

Urging Trump to destroy the BBC is unforgivable. Truss, Badenoch & Farage would rather betray this country than offer the BBC or the British government their support against a narcissistic foreign liar and a threat to democracy. It’s an appalling betrayal. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/trump-...

He'll start a war to: 1. Distract from the Epstein Files 2. Steal oil 3. Justify emergency powers 4. Justify use of the AEA for deportation/internment 5. Help the drug lord he just pardoned

As predicted: Here comes the Epstein-Venezuela war.

how about the #Brexshit referendum

Want to see billionaire brainwashing in action? Seven out of ten Brits are big fans of renewable energy and want to see lots more of it. But they think the majority of people DON’T support it. That disconnect isn’t an accident. 🧵

Donald Trump’s $10bn claim against BBC mentions Liz Truss as ‘voice of authority’ Hahahahahahhahahahhahahahahah…… Hahahahahhahahahahaahahahah! www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/don...

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

I will just point out the Doctors have asked for a maximum of £800m, that's for 71,000 doctors who run all the hospitals. That's 'too expensive'. But when the Water Companies asked for £5bn, they were given it. Broken Britain, money for thieves, no money for you.

there are good people around, they make little orange buffoons like sad #Trump look even more pathetic --> BBC News - Couple win £1m lottery jackpot for second time www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A Labour Culture Secretary, Lisa Nandy, is promoting idea of advertising on the #BBC and/or a part subscription model for its future funding. I despair. How can the BBC's *unique* *precious* blend of universality, independence, freedom from commercial pressure and trust be maintained in this way?

Good job, #Europe et al! Progress despite Trump’s betrayal. All territories stolen from #Ukraine must be returned. #Putin cannot be rewarded for his crimes. If not, they must become neutral, democratically governed zones protected by the international community—never legalized as part of Russia.

Tomorrow’s strike is still entirely avoidable, Wes Streeting should work with us to come up with a credible offer to end this jobs crisis and avert the real terms pay cuts he is pushing in 2026. We're willing to work to find a solution if he is

not that I'm thinking of going, while the bent orange banana is attempting to run the show

Trump has no case. The simple reply from the BBC should be Fuck Off. And release the Epstein Files as you are legally obligated to do and then we can talk about reputation loss. PS that post about Rob Reiner.

Now, why didn’t Trump’s lawyers just include the sentence in the quote, like Michael Prescott did? It’s because Prescott omitted a chunk of quote too. Trump’s lawyers have managed to cut it out of their filing, too, but they’ve done it more cleverly than him. Here’s the missing bit:
