Jacob Frey: "If we are now at the point where the federal govt is deploying agents on legal American citizens with a goal of uprooting people who have formed lives here, have families here, started businesses here, definitively made Minneapolis a better place, everybody should be speaking out."

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

It's all bad but hadn't seen the bit where Farage says: "The European Union is the prototype for the New World Order." That is a seriously, deeply problematic term that taps into Illuminati and antisemitic conspiracy theories. How the fuck did this man direct the course of our politics?

This is not just John Birch Society stuff. It's worse than that and that kind of dangerous language should have absolutely no place in British politics. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.

👏 Keir Starmer PM: "How Brexit was sold and delivered was wrong. Wild promises were made to the British people and not fulfilled." "The idea that leaving the EU was the answer to all our cares and concerns has clearly been proved wrong."

👏🏽"We must all now confront the reality that the Brexit deal significantly hurt our economy. We have to keep reducing frictions. We have to keep moving towards a closer relationship with the EU. And we have to be grown up about it. To accept that it will require trade-offs."👏🏽 Music to my ears. ~AA

Got the band back together at mine and Paul’s surprise wedding reception. I love these people so much 🥰 @sturdyalex.bsky.social @rostaylor.bsky.social @dorianlynskey.bsky.social @iandunt.bsky.social and Ingrid Oliver

OMG!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Trump is fucking Ukraine. I’m ashamed to be represented by this regime. People fighting for their lives and country and this government sides with the aggressor. Sad.

Richard Tice, March 2025: "I have never met Nathan Gill, and he has never had anything to do with Reform,"

The same people who convinced the British public to back a catastrophic Boris Johnson premiership are now pulling the same trick again with Nigel Farage www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/the-confid...

Well, this is pretty terrifying. The Daily Mail is buying the Telegraph. One massive consolidated right-wing media empire controlled by off-shore interests at a critical moment in global politics. What could go wrong? www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

Colombia and the UK have ordered the suspension of intelligence sharing with the United States, until Trump stops murdering civilians in the Caribbean. At least 75 innocent people have been murdered. Their murders filmed and redistributed by the Trump regime as entertainment.

The BBC isn't perfect, but it belongs to Britain not Trump. Political leaders across the UK must unite in defending its independence from the White House.

Trump has executed six more civilians in a small boat. The death toll now stands at 76.

I agree with @arusbridger.bsky.social about BBC governance. Although v hesitant about another rearrangement, the single corporate-style board is massively flawed, not least because there needs to be some distance for the governors/board members from editorial decisions

Trump and his cronies have the BBC in their sights. Leaders can’t stay silent while one of our great institutions is attacked. We must defend its independence, end political appointments, and remove Robbie Gibb from the Board.

The world must not look away from the genocide in Sudan.

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

Remember—if you gather an armed mob blocks from the seat of your government at a time it's closed to the public, a crime to trespass on, and accessible only by overwhelming cops, then tell them that unless they "fight like hell" at that building they'll lose their country, it's not inciting violence

Creative pals, we need you! A group of us are running an auction to raise funds for the Emergency Response Rooms in Sudan. Sudanese people are dealing with the worst humanitarian crisis since records began. Can you donate mentoring/art/signed books etc? SIGN UP HERE: www.sudancoup.com/auction

Can anyone help Pete? Worthy cause.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten. "I don't think that we should allow ourselves to be bullied into thinking that the BBC is only any good, if it reflects the prejudice of the last person who shouted at it." ~AA

They weren't terrorists. They weren't cartel members. They had no fentanyl. And they weren't coming here. They were transporting cocaine. To Trinidad. Most importantly, they were human beings. And they were murdered. By the government of the United States of America.

Organizing crime and starving people in poverty is tiring

The Sociopath-In-Chief couldn't be bothered to even turn his head in the direction of a man in the midst of a medical emergency who collapsed in his office. Completely incapable of empathy, the EPSTEIN Files can't be released soon enough. 25/47

This is so horrific. So painful. So despairing.

Laurence Fox is never again going to be able to threaten to sue anybody for calling him, an increasingly overt racist, racist

When I was first elected, evidence showed it would take 193 years to bring London's air pollution within legal limits. Due to our policies, we've done it in 9. In Brazil this week, we showed that cities are giving the world reason to hope when it comes to tackling the climate emergency.

Dear GOD if you want to save money in the asylum system 1. LET ASYLUM SEEKERS WORK 2. FAST TRACK STATUS FOR EVERYONE FROM CLEARLY UNDAFE COUNTRIES like Sudan, Syria, etc 3. Run an asylum accommodation system that is NOT FOR PROFIT #r4today

I spoke to Bloomberg at the C40 World Mayors Summit about how we can turn the climate crisis into an opportunity - building greener homes, creating new clean energy jobs, and protecting our planet for future generations.

Hope or despair? That’s the choice facing the world at COP30 in Brazil. On the final day of the @c40cities.bsky.social World Mayor’s Summit, local leaders made it clear where we stand.

Sending warm wishes to Sikhs in London and around the world celebrating Guru Nanak’s birthday today. His timeless teachings of equality, compassion and service continue to inspire millions. Gurpurab di lakh lakh vadhai!

You absolutely would not want to be, or be anywhere near, any bottle of ketchup in what remains of the White House today.

A train driver managed to get his train onto a slow line and stopped at a station to facilitate speedy law enforcement. A train guard put his life on the line to protect the passengers. Remember that next time they talk about rail workers' wages or rubbish like driverless trains with no guards.

Ascending From The Bridge, by Simon Palmer, 1994.

These poor kids didn’t stand a bloody chance… 345 vulnerable kids, seeking asylum and then lost by our authorities 50 still missing Likely to traffickers How could this have happened? Unforgivable from now-Reform controlled Kent County Council. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Violent mobs are intimidating communities across the region – waving flags, harassing women, and beating a man almost unconscious. Police, councils and government all look the other way. When did fear become policy? @peterthurlow.bsky.social

This is absolutely right. It’s about creating a permission structure for violence, whether that violence is conducted by the state directly or simply permitted by the state.

It is horrifying that Netanyahu has bombed Gaza, a clear violation of the ceasefire. The unimaginable suffering in Gaza must end. We must demand justice and reparations for all victims of atrocities.

This man is being Gorilla Channel'd with a rotating selection of AI slop riot porn by several known white supremacists who are secretly running the government.

No one still alive has seen as much of the Tory party as Heseltine. He was involved in Concorde negotiations… When I research More Jam Tomorrow, he keeps popping up. Watching the Conservatives’ extinction must hurt him profoundly in ways it’s hard for Bluesky to imagine.

Honestly I hate Jenrick more than Farage. Far more sinister because of the speed of his transformation from off-the-shelf Tory mediocrity into dead-eyed National Front race-baiter

The Dáil heard cross-party condemnation of the raid on the boats today, with a number of TDs describing the taking of the activists by Israeli forces in international waters as "piracy and kidnapping". http://jrnl.ie/6832715
