#lbc #LBC I’d say ‘wind your beak in, Streetin’

Don’t let the faragists get you down They will soon crash as a result of their inadequacies, and sanity will prevail #bbcnews #skynews #lbc #elections

You are doing brilliantly, don’t beat yourself up, you are human #wisdomafterafewglassesofwine

#snooker looks like a question of who will outlive the other…

Waiting For Godot: famously a play about waiting for something that eventually turns up.

🚨China has issued a direct warning to the United States in response to Trump’s threat to blockade the Strait of Hormuz. Chinese Defense Minister Admiral Dong Jun: “We have trade and energy agreements with Iran; we expect others not to interfere in our affairs. The Strait of Hormuz is open to us."

"Hello, yes, I'm a doctor. Normal doctor. Try not to notice that winged angel warlock thing up there. This is a regular sight in hospitals. Perhaps he's the registrar? I'm sure that's a hospital word. Also, the birds. They're just vultures. But you'll be fine. Now, eat this light bulb."

Surely this will shake up and wake up quite a few people out of the cult. He is clearly a narcissist having religious delusions and cannot be in charge of whether we have WW3 or not

These people have a funny way of saying "Environmentalists have been proved right yet again."

#PoliticsLive How about we turn off social media worldwide to cut energy use? Starting with Truth Social obviously… Most of the clowns in charge of this shitshow wouldn’t be in power without these platforms

Can someone tell Zia Yousef that he isn’t on the Zia Yousef Show Hopefully Reform plc will be losing many voters as he clearly has no respect for anyone on the show and even less respect for the truth or the actual country #PoliticsLive #bbcnews #politicslive

#politicslive - Alex Burghart constantly interrupting and shouting people down. Might I suggest that after 14 years of incompetence, showing yourself to be just an arrogant Tory gobshite is not the best way to win friends and influencing people.

Burghart is so dazzled by his own self-judged brilliance he can’t compute that he has to listen to a woman and a younger man who are (by his judgement) so thick that they dare to disagree with his ill-informed Conservative Party lines. I bet he thinks this is going well #politicslive

Hegseth has God on his side, as do the Iranians and just about all the war mongers God help us… #bbc #skynews #lbc #politicslive

Does Kemi have any other gears except smug, uninformed and unserious? #pmqs #politicslive #skynews #lbc

It’s not difficult to imagine what Winston Churchill would have made of Donald Trump…

All Hail, the patron saint of ‘Unhinged Headlines’ received g the respect he deserves.

Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.

Don’t let Trump see this

They defend Kyle Rittenhouse and blame Alex Pretti. We cannot go down this road. We cannot have Countrymen against Countrymen, Citizen against Citizen. This is not the America that we believe in. We must unite together, against this very dangerous splintering they want to incite against us. - AOC

Not going to end well is it.

There's a real pleasure in refusing to do things you really don't want to do - I call it a nopamine hit.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Just visited with Liam and his father at Dilley detention center. I demanded his release and told him how much his family, his school, and our country loves him and is praying for him.

“I am grateful that I was in a position to be there for my community. To stop the lies and the madness, and allow there to be proof.” Stella Carlson, who filmed the killing of Alex Pretti up close, speaks out.

New low for Trump approval today, at 39% of U.S. adults on average across dozens of pollsters. fiftyplusone.news/polls/approv...

I'm starting to think the Trumpist mastery of propaganda is failing them. The DHS agents posing this way makes it look like they're ashamed of themselves.

Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera. Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

An Injury To All: The Unmaking of the British Working Class will be published by Verso in October! Today I submitted responses to last comments from my editor and worked on the blurb. It's getting closer and closer!

🤣

It's easy to get inured to this. But it's genuinely shocking. These are just untrained, hyped up hooligans terrorizing people.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot. "They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets." "They had the professional demeanor of criminals." ht: @paulgraham.bsky.social

Schumer calls for Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller to be removed from their jobs.

Here's Billy Bragg's contribution to the genre.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Every evening Mnsgr Hugh O'Flaherty stood on the steps of St Peter's Basilica in view of armed German soldiers, making himself available to Jews, dissidents, deserters & Allied soldiers. More than 4,000 escaped occupied Rome with his help. www.dib.ie/biography/of... #HolocaustMemorialDay #DIBLives

🎬 Watched the film "Number 24", a Netflix film on the wartime career of Norwegian resistance leader Gunnar Sønsteby. Excellent depiction of life under occupation in #WW2, the issue of collaboration/resistance and the wartime legacy - plus there's a Radiohead track, too.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Murdered in the street by ICE while peacefull standing up for democracy, as was his right. He leaves behind people who loved him. America, 2026.

Walz: "There's a whole lot of Republicans who for whatever reason cannot find their spine, but they might find the ability to know they're not gonna win another election as long as they live unless they stand up for what's right, the rule of law, and human decency."

Walz: "I call on all Americans to see the decency this state is exhibiting, and the horrific cruelty, unprofessional, absolute abomination that is passing for what these f--- ICE agents are doing on our streets."

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Very dark times but I have hope that there are far more decent people who will speak up and stand against these atrocities than those prepared to commit or support them We see this in our own lives, although the media makes the bigots seem more prevalent than they are #bbcnews #skynews #cnn #lbc
