Renters' Rights Bill becomes law Described as the biggest shake-up to renting in England for more than 30 years, a new law to give renters more rights was formally approved on Monday www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hours before this he was bragging about how he supposedly aced a cognitive exam.

Three further members of Reform’s “flagship” Kent council expelled for “dishonest and deceptive behaviour” www.itv.com/news/meridia...

Agree with this obviously. But don't forget *the government* has also proposed vindictive, unpopular and economically damaging restrictions on ILR which could affect 100,000s of people here now, legally, mostly working. This is now the more immediate issue..

I don't know who to credit this image to, but anyway, they got the price wrong. That 2/9d should read £122 million

Ah delightful. Danny Kruger on #r4today telling us that Pochin ‘clearly meant something else’. I don’t think so Danny. ‘It’s concern about DEI!’ - also no. ‘Nigel has concluded she’s not racist, so she’s not’ - v much not how it works. Insulting to all of us that they churn out this ugly nonsense.

They were wasting their time on that one...

Hahahahaha!

Russia still considers the UK one of its prime enemies. And what’s the best way to bring ‘Britain to its knees’ again as the former Russian Ambassador to London once boasted? Repeat the talking points of Farage and Far right activists - key collaborators in Putin’s mission

🧐

The President of the United States thinks a test for dementia is an IQ test, and none of his sycophants will tell him he’s wrong. Let that sink in.

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up. I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies. If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

This article was so bad the Times have removed it.

Love to show how smart I am by bragging about my score on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment.

Sami Hamdi, a British political commentator and critic of Israel, was detained by ICE while he was in the U.S. on a speaking tour. The Department of Homeland Security said his visa had been revoked.

Farage: epic grifter

The Washington Post thinks the White House Ballroom is a splendid idea and anyone who thinks otherwise is a NIMBY. In other news Post owner Jeff Bezos is helping to pay for the Ballroom

I love this! Brilliant idea 👏

Collins is on TREMENDOUS form atm.

Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

Nothing on the BBC Radio news this morning. Nothing I could find on their website. This is an MP from the party whose lead in the opinion polls normally ensures them wall-to-wall coverage. She spouts racist nonsense for which even she feels obliged to apologise. What on earth are they playing at?

Another day, another unspeakable act of cruelty by the fascist American Gestapo.

So many lies

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Oh no! 😬 🐸🐸

Of course, that’s not what he was saying. He was pointing out what was obviously true to anyone alive then - there was a big backlash against Muslim-Americans and anyone with an Arab-sounding name right after 9/11. But Vance has to be an asshole 24/7 for his MAGA troll fans.

It's hard to overstate how fully engaged Chicago and the surrounding suburbs are in this ICE madness. There are neighborhood watch alerts, spontaneous crowds gathering outside schools at pick up & drop off plus madly blowing whistles and honking car horns, this city is fighting back and hard.

Excited by the possibility that over the four-year local election cycle Reform will end up expelling so many councillors that it gets back to zero.

“.. perhaps the most cruel and unlawful offense the Trump administration has perpetrated yet — freezing funding already enacted into law to feed hungry Americans while he shovels tens of billions of dollars .. to Argentina and into his ballroom.” @politico.com #SNAP www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Reporters are obsessed with asking Trump “why did you do this” instead of factual questions like “what’s the name of the person you pardoned”

Absolutely everything to Reform and Farage is “simple” Brexit? Easy Stopping the boats? Simple Finding savings for local councils? Piece of cake It’s all easy, until it’s not. People would do much better to not allow themselves to be conned into simplism - we have seen and heard this all before

Beth Rigby: "Keir Starmer has changed his top team more than I've had hot dinners." In two years before Starmer we had 3 PMs, 4 Chancellors, 3 Foreign Secretaries, 5 Home Secretaries, 5 Education Secretaries, 5 Cabinet Secretaries, etc. - total 221 ministerial departures. Maybe Beth is on a diet.

This is how Trump does everything. Reporting from reliable sources says he’s going to do something outrageous/ridiculous. He immediately claims it’s fake news. Then a few days or weeks later he does exactly what was originally reported.

So your Nan's wheels on meals will be cut, but don't worry, you can pay higher taxes and she can look at a flag instead.

RFK Jr to urge Americans to eat more saturated fats, alarming health experts

Whoaaaaa www.nytimes.com/2025/10/25/u...

Billionaires shouldn't be able to buy a bigger voice in politics. Add your name to ‪@electoralreform.bsky.social‬'s call to cap how much they can donate and get big money out of politics action.electoral-reform.org.uk/page/179420/...

That's racism. Plain and simple. No other word for it. It's shocking beyond belief that this sort of thing is somehow acceptable.

People kvetch about the chaos-inducing serial comma, but you can also do a lot with a colon! Beware, biographers!!

it's hard to Nazi what's going on here

Would have loved to see the due-diligence on this one. 🤡 @financialtimes.com $UMAC www.ft.com/content/4ced...

Bit of an eight here, really. But aiming for a seven tomorrow 🙂

every passing day, rightwingers are inventing new and unexpected ways to signal to the world they may be the dumbest iteration of humans so far

It's not lost on me that the part of the White House we are destroying is the part that has to do with women's history in the White House.

I would hope that one of the many MPs who benefits from Sunder's tireless work would take up this case - the defamatory video needs removing urgently, and the person responsible needs to be found and held accountable
