The SNP have secured the first Commons debate on Gaza for two years

I strongly suspect that a guilty verdict in this case was going to be @yvettecooper-mp.bsky.social's long-awaited Big Reveal: "you see - this was the special knowledge I had proving that Palestine Action are terrorists". Because frankly she had nothing else. And now she has nothing.

I wish the BBC would remember the quotation marks for "Scottish" Labour. Very disrespectful to imply they are an actual party rather than a regional accounting unit of an English registered party meddling in another country's election process.. #holyrood2026

Do they understand how mad they sound? As if anyone has ever decided to cross the Channel in a small boat because, if they make it, they might get to take a free taxi to a doctor's appointment? "Pull factors" on steroids. www.bbc.com/news/article...

"Is Morgan McSweeney safe in his job?" Steve Reed: "Yes of course he is" Reed is a long time political ally of both Mandelson & McSweeney, and all three of them worked together in wrecking, smearing & lying to regain control of the Labour Party.

Also morally wrong.

Alex Burghart MP has now called for a review of the circumstances around the award of Palantir's £240m defence contract, and asked why Mandelson's visit to Palantir's offices in Washington was kept off the books while the company was being represented by his firm, Global Council.

Kiddies who made it out of the ICE dungeon report sighting a schoolmate. Before this, the school district had no information on their whereabouts. The family has now been connected with a lawyer. Youngsters who escape a govt dungeon are the only way to track abducted children? This is fine!

Shell plans up to £4.6mn pay rise for chief executive. Most people will not earn that in a lifetime. Real wage cuts for workers but no curbs on exec pay, dividends, share buybacks, profiteering. No workplace democracy: Workers have no say in how wealth is shared. archive.ph/d1CWZ

🚨🚨 #Mandelson falls even more in disgrace as @ec.europa.eu is examining and will likely conclude that British politician broke the EU Ethics code due to his contact with convicted sex offender Jeffrey #Epstein. This is welcome news: 🧵 www.politico.eu/article/mand...

Gorton & Denton by-election winner - best prices Greens 10/11 Refash UK Ltd 7/4 Labour 9/1 Advance UK 200/1 Social Democratic Party 750/1 Conservatives 1000/1 LD 1000/1 Rejoin EU Party ?

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

Labour’s action over PA should outrage people just as much as Mandelson’s betrayals. It was/is a ridiculous overreach that has seen nearly 3000 people arrested as well as a hunger strike by those accused in the primary case. All this heavy-handed control on people of UK in support a genocide in Gaza

Gestapos opened fire, striking Martinez 5 times in the arm, chest & both legs 1 gestapo had body cam ... Martinez has said in court that it shows an officer shouting "do something b--" The gestapo who shot her, in a group text: "I fired 5 rounds & she had 7 holes. Put that in your book, boys."

The way people quote posted me like I am stupid as fuck when I said the Dems were fucking us with their 2 week extension

So apparently there are alternatives to zoom - one Norwegian and one French. Guess what I will be researching today? I think the only US loose end in our business now is Notion - we have done really well xx

Voterfraudfraud will now be aimed at women, not just people of color. Why? They tend to vote Dem. That's it, that is the sin that leads to disenfranchisement.

As temperatures plunged across the eastern U.S., a breathtaking cloud pattern took shape off the coasts of Florida

Starmer is the 5th prime minister since David Cameron. And David Cameron was the last prime minister to complete a full term in office. May, 2016-19. Johnson 2019-22. Truss 2022-22. Sunak 2022-24. Starmer 2024- ?

Supreme Court leaves California’s Prop 50 maps in place for 2026 midterms www.sfchronicle.com/politics/art... #GoodNews

I didn’t have on my 2026 bingo card the possibility that we might feasibly see Starmer destroy the Labour Party, Mountbatten-Windsor destroy the monarchy, Mandelson destroy the House of Lords, & Johnson (& a few others) destroy the Conservative Party. 😬

Melania made just £32,974 in its opening weekend in the UK. It didn't even make it into the top 30 films despite being on its opening weekend. 🤣

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. 1/3

Remarkable: Trump's planned migrant prison camps are hitting deep resistance in red areas. In Virginia's partly rural Hanover (+26 Trump) opposition is intense. GOP leaders in other states are opposed. Voters are rejecting mass deportations big time. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2060...

Farage wants to deport 600k from UK - where & when will the nimbyism break out here re his camps! Will the press ask him about the how, the who and the where ?

This is what Reform will do, return UK to sick man of Europe and possibly life support

Garcia: I want to remind the American public of Stephen Miller. There's probably no single person in this government that has done more damage and more harm to people across this country than this man right here. It's our job to hold him responsible

The Times podcast saying Farage still on track to be next PM - they wish…. Folk need to look across the pond to see the utter chaos that will be visited on the UK with even more cronyism, corruption and collapse from the far right. Fuck Labour for allowing this to happen. #YouYesYet #SNPPlaidGreen

Another instance of ‘the human rights lawyer’ & PM fucking up. Mandelson OK, legitimate protest not. #YouYesYet

Remember the reports of Palestine Action activists swinging a sledgehammer at security guards? It didn't happen. This is the 'evidence' Starmer used to label the group terrorist. This is why you can get 14 years in prison just for holding a placard supporting them. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

If Mandelson is being investigated for his Epstein connections, he must also be investigated for his Thiel connections, because they ran a joint fund when Mandelson fixed Starmer's visit to Palantir bylinetimes.com/2025/04/25/p...

Quick explainer on why Epstein file releases may bring down UK PM Keir Starmer: Releases revealed that Peter Mandelson as a govt minister leaked non-public govt info to Epstein, including advising him that JPMorgan should “threaten” the UK finance minister over a proposed banker bonus tax in 2009.

The French investigators said the search of X’s premises was part of an investigation opened last year into X’s alleged algorithmic biases.

"Comments about Pat McFadden’s announcement have been those of disbelief, and his tone towards 1950s born women has been very misogynistic, sexist and ageist. Not what you expect from a parliamentary secretary!" @teamlabouruk.bsky.social #WASPI

Garbage Labour statement in Wm just now re Mandelson - gist being that Mandelson & Mandelson alone is responsible for his appt going tits up. This when it was clearly laid out to Govt in this session that it could only have been a political appt by the PM which flew in the face checks & advice

A brief, recent history of the Washington Post: 1- Trump wins in 2024. 2- Bezos and minions make series of Trump-friendly changes to paper. 3-Readership tanks. 4- Bezos and minions fire tons of employees while telling them the audience just doesn't like what they're doing.

One problem with billionaires is that they're so rich they no longer have rational incentives. To someone like Bezos, the financial performance of WaPo is wholly irrelevant, and so the only "incentive" is to satisfy emotional urges, such as breaking something just to show he can.

BREAKING: Lithuania has launched a human trafficking investigation related to Epstein files

Hmmm, wonder which country’s tactics they are copying by using war zone tactics on a civilian population….
