Ghosted one and two by OA is amazing. He’s a total genius.

Is it Spurs-sack their manager-o'clock already? #SPURS #FRANK

A wee Saturday night push for our business. We’re a husband and wife team from rural Aberdeenshire. We make linocut prints inspired by nature, folklore and wildlife. Things are a bit slow, just now, so likes and shares would be massively appreciated. www.cutfromtheland.co.uk/products

That would be Will Lewis. Knighted, inevitably, by Boris Johnson.

Just a quick note to @greenparty.org.uk and @greenpartyhan.bsky.social - I was not consulted on being quoted on your leaflets and I have not endorsed your campaign (or any campaign in this seat). I think this note, like the bar chart next to it, is misleading and out of context.

@edaarons.bsky.social You’ve twice now said that Arsenal v Chelsea was their first game in front of their fans since losing to Man Utd. On 25.2.26. However, Arsenal 3 Kairat 2 on 28.2.26. Please be accurate.

Is Gary Neville @skysportpl.bsky.social in a secret contest to be the world’s most tedious commentator? #ARSCHE

The Green Party has claimed figures from a projection show “only the Greens can stop Reform” in Gorton and Denton. This is misleading. The model cited suggests Reform and the Greens will increase vote share the most, but currently projects a Labour win.

Small things which drive me spare. Number 8 million in a series. Why use "liminal" when "in between" is what is being said? Why? It's a plague. Also "curated" when "chosen" does the job. Why? Orwell was right.

Andy Burnham - apart from looking like a character called ‘Andy Burnham’ from a 9:00 pm BBC2 drama from 1998 about an ‘ambitious Manchester mayor’- also somehow looks like *every single member* of The Smiths and New Order mashed into one.

You did not bear the shame. You resisted. You bestowed the eternally vigilant symbol of change by sacrificing your impassioned lives for freedom, justice and honour. — The German Resistance Memorial in Berlin

CNN put together a clip of JD Vance claiming ICE agents have "absolute immunity" followed by him two weeks later claiming "I didn't say that officers who engage in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity"

youtu.be/o7u8nUFH6C0 Just remembered how great this is.

Natalie Palamides at Soho Theatre Walthamstow @sohotheatre.bsky.social tonight was absolutely, jaw droppingly, incredibly brilliant and hilarious. Go see.

The Knobhead Piece Prize.

Should say "gloves"

Looking forward to spending that extra £6 a month.

Incredibly, no-one on Nigel Farage’s team has got round to deleting this post. It’s still live as Robert Jenrick gives his big defection speech.

Jenrick saying he's "put aside personal ambition" too join Reform is the single most shameless statement I've ever heard. If he "put aside personal ambition" he'd disappear. That's all there is.

I’m on a train where today’s contest seems to be: who can inflict the worst injury with their unnecessarily large suitcase.

The narrative about London crime is truly so BORING to Londoners. Those of us who walk & travel around our city safely every day, every night. The likeliest daily risk to Londoners is of being ripped off by our landlord or somewhere charging us £4.50 for a coffee. #r4today

First band + venue. Finally some credibility.

Happy 53rd birthday to 'Whatever happened to the Likely Lads?' 🎂

Good Morning From The Drummer, My Friends.

Ex-Meta chief AI scientist Yann LeCun has Lunch with the FT and in one of those instances so rare that you know he didn't sign an NDA, says exactly why as.ft.com/r/e503690d-8...

The Government coming off X is the bare minimum and realistically at this point I think we should seriously be looking at taking enforcement action against the company, in line with the Online Safety Act and VAWG Strategy. I will be pressing the Government on this when Parliament returns next week.

I’ve raised the question of whether Southwark Council should be using X a couple of times now. I’ll be raising it again tomorrow.

How big exactly is a “thumb size” piece of ginger?

Man who bought up 33,000 acres of farmland to avoid tax and moved his business to Singapore after the Brexit he voted for wants your sympathy.

What is the charge? Posting a meme? A succulent shitposting meme?

Nothing says "smash the political establishment" quite like begging the Prime Minister to put your mates in the unelected House of Lords.

Seems like a long time to wait.

The proud parents.

Charlatans were great at the Roundhouse tonight. One of Manchester’s great live bands - and without stupid surge “dynamic” ticket pricing.

EXEK are great.

Hey @gwr.com. Today I had a lovely chat with Jonny who did the trolley service on the 14.54 from Castle Cary to Paddington. With his car out of action, he walked 2hrs from Burnham to Slough at 2am to start his shift. Many would have thrown a sickie, probs me included. You have a hero in your ranks.

KHAN HAS BANNED CHRISTMAS

Farage the politician *is* Farage the schoolboy losing his shit over seeing the name ‘Patel’ on the school roll and telling black pupils to go back to Africa. There’s really no difference. Except now he wants (and may be bought) the power to deport those people. It’s not the past. It’s now. #NeverPM

Nigel Farage won't apologise for his history of racism because "if he apologised, he would be turning to his own support base and saying, ‘You’re all guilty too,'" a Reform source tells the Times. So essentially he was a racist and he believes his supporters are racists too

😕

Farage has been dismissing evidence of Russian ties to the Salisbury Novichok attack since 2018 🧐

All of these.
