Captain Petty hated that Mexico won the opening World Cup match. With any luck the tournament could have several opportunities to get under his skin.

Love this as a prevention case study: - Low cost, even revenue raising in the short term - Improves health outcomes and reduces costly hospital admissions Shows political leadership is key: - Politically costly for Khan to implement - Did it despite cost savings landing outside GLA

The most disgusting behaviour I’ve ever witnessed in public spaces was directed at Sadiq Khan by ‘anti-Ulez’ protesters, who of course received way more coverage, much of it friendly, than the scheme’s incredible success ever will.

The United States military has struck three vessels in the Strait of Hormuz this week, killing three Indian sailors.

Farage to LBC on Trump: “He is an extraordinary and remarkable human being.”

Pro-Palestine activists believe ‘sea change’ coming in Labour’s approach to Middle East

“It’s vital ministers recognise that the signalling effect alone of the UK’s intent to apply for EU membership would rally the pound and boost investment, creating the fiscal headroom they need to ease the affordability crisis - and that’s before the growth that would be on offer through membership”

John Swinney accuses Reform UK of inciting racial division in Scotland

It's time for Elon Musk to pipe down.

In order to get England's immigrant population down to Belfast's level you would need to deport millions. Something that rarely happens outside of fullscale war. The whole article is insane.

Smart chap.

Mexico gets football in a way USA will never understand in a million years. Worthy hosts of a World Cup. Wish they were the sole hosts.

PLEASE PLEASE I would pay 💵 to see this debate!

UK Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch admits she’ll make Farage PM if Reform come close. In an interview with The Spectator: “This country cannot have another left-wing government.” A fascist one is okay though.

We definitely see them as one of the greatest enemies of mankind www.reuters.com/business/onl...

CANADA COMES TO THE RESCUE OF SOMALIAN REFEREE OMAR ARTAN! 🇨🇦🇸🇴 David Eby, Premier of British Columbia, has announced that his province would welcome Omar Artan. He stated that Artan should be allowed to referee World Cup matches within his jurisdiction, specifically in the host city of Vancouver.

Kim Leadbeater echoes her sister Jo Cox's words from her maiden speech: "We are far more united and have far more in common than that which divides us."

A statement from the family of the victim of the knife attack in Belfast calling for the attack not to he used for division, and stating that many immigrants make a valuable contribution to the UK. A statement that will likely just be ignored by those wishing to exploit the attack.

UEFA said fuck FIFA.

The government continues to stick its head in the sand over X.

Upskirting, body shaming, groping, stalking, verbal abuse, domestic violence ... Just some sexist & misogynistic acts of Councillors who passed the stringent vetting of Reform UK which pretends to care about violence against women and girls "So what?" www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Bunch of Bastards.....

BRITAIN, GET IT SORTED.....

People who behave like a feral violet mob do not need radicalisation. They were already racist. They only need someone to give them permission, a spur. Two em, MP's and a violent thug backed by Musk is enough, I'd say. It's time for our government to step up, please. MP's to step down. X banned

That. And this.

If Muslims or members of the Asian and Black community had set fire to white people’s homes with children running for their lives, do you think we would be discussing legitimate concerns or focussing on who radicalised them and ideological and contributing cultural factors?

Convictions for far right terrorism and incidents, are far higher than convictions for any other terror incidents in this country, but if we only ever listen to politicians, mainstream media and right wing pundits, we would never know.

I hope we're going to see many charges for incitement to racial hatred, incitement to violence and incitement to riot, all of which have been happening blatantly and prolifically on social media. Or will two-tier policing in the UK, favouring the right and the far right, prevail yet again?

Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums. Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?

Gwyneth Paltrow is paid $10 million to promote the sale of luxury condominiums in Israel. She was paid $588 for each of the 17,000 children killed in Gaza. What a disgrace to Hollywood, to Judaism, to women and to humanity!

This transition will affect roughly 2.5 million civil servants as part of a 2026 strategy to achieve "digital sovereignty." France already has a successful precedent; the national police force has operated 100,000 computers on Linux since 2008, proving that such a massive shift is feasible.

WHY HAS NIGEL FARAGE NOT BEEN ARRESTED FOR INCITING VIOLENCE?

That's a pogrom. She's describing a pogrom

I've been a broken record on this for three years and I'll be a broken record for as long as that fucking website exists: X is a viciously racist far-right organising platform that ONLY WORKS because a huge number of centrists, lefties and progressivs cannot stop propping it up

www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba... We all thought after Blatter, FIFA would become less evil. Nope under Infantino, they are just after more and more money. This sham of a world cup should just be called off.

www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j... The days of believing anything that Israel, or the USA, say are over for good. Israel should be under international sanctions from everyone, they should have been for years, but surely now?? This route to fascism has been in progress for a long time. Horrific

What are the Government, police and security services doing about the people who are quite clearly in the pay of a hostile foreign state, and using their platforms to whip up actual pogroms on our streets? This is a major national security issue and absolutely nothing seems to be happening about it

This has nothing to do with stopping crime. It is to do with a global far-right movement, coordinated on X, organised by some of the most powerful men in the world from Silicon Valley to the White House inews.co.uk/opinion/fara...

Referee denied entry. Officials denied entry. Players denied entry. Fans denied entry. The U.S. is proving exactly why it never should’ve been chosen to host the World Cup.

Condemning riots isn't enough. We need policy action, including an immediate appraisal of X as a vehicle for coordinating far-right disorder. And we need political leadership, to challenge white nationalism as an idea, not to validate it daily and then complain when it turns violent.

My ambition is clear: I want London to become the world’s leading city for environmentally friendly, low-emission, high-efficiency data centre development. Innovation must not come at the expense of our natural world.

It was a really stupid idea to host the World Cup here. There were plenty of opportunities to change locations. Yes it would have cost a lot of money but at least non-white players, officials & fans would be allowed to play coach & attend the games. The president of FIFA should be ousted asap.

Palantir's co-founder claimed "the NHS makes people sick" Yet this US tech giant now runs the NHS data platform. There are serious concerns about its access to patient data and human rights record. The Government should use the break clause and kick Palantir out of our NHS.

Commercial terms agreed in principle for a new data centre on the south bank of the River Tees show how the publicly funded regeneration of one of the UK’s most deprived regions has turned into a half-a-billion-pounds-plus enrichment scheme for a couple of local businessmen.

Immigrants & asylum seekers are not our enemies. They are not responsible for the austerity, privatisation, erosion of civic life, thinning of democracy and concentration of power we suffer. But they're being punished for these things. Punished at the behest of the very people who *are* responsible.

An event is planned to be hosted in London proudly promoting the sale of land on illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank. This is obscene. I've called on @london.gov.uk and @yvettecooper-mp.bsky.social to stop the event and for this govt to take real action on illegal settlements.

"There's a stench of menace in the air here." Mobs of men in balaclavas. Cars on fire. Chaos on the streets. Andy Hughes was on the ground in Belfast as "lawless" anti-immigration protests tore through the city. @thecrimeagents.bsky.social

But but but he’s already completely obliterated them. And negotiated a glorious ceasefire. And leveraged them in to total surrender. And completely obliterated them. And negotiated a glorious ceasefire. And leveraged them in to total surrender. And completely obliterated them. And negotiated a glo…
