Thank you to @mrjamesob.bsky.social for having me on, one of the v few people in the UK press to follow this story during what is now a decade of media apathy &/or complicity

Oh! Wait! 🤔

A sticking point of summit with Donald is whether Ukraine will be allowed to defend itself next time we attack it.

Have to say, it’s no comfort AT ALL surveying the Brexit wreckage knowing there are other (lesser) reasons for the damage. Just makes Brexit all the more irresponsible and idiotic. Along with the stubborn refusal to properly fix it. It’s all so tediously stupid. liveapp.inews.co.uk/category/398...

Funny old thing the TikTok algorithm. You post a short clip of stand up you think is quite funny. It does over 720 views in under half an hour, then someone in Beijing notices it mentions politics:

Alexa, Show me page 5 of the Fascist playbook.

Another day and yet another example of just how unfit Reform are to run this country. I wouldn’t even trust them to run a bath never mind run the country

Good to see @eddavey.libdems.org.uk being more direct about the disaster that is Brexit. No solution exists to Britain's economic woes that doesn't involve a reversing major parts of the Brexit deal and eventually reversing it altogether.

“Saudi Arabia has one of the worst human rights records in the world,” thundered the Daily Mail in September, slamming comedians like Jimmy Carr and Jack Whitehall for performing there. 🧵1/4

Ah! Good morning, reality. And welcome. We’ve been expecting you…

Best thing I did in my police career was join the dog squad. We have the highest capture rates. We're also feared more than the armed police, which works to our advantage. And of course you get to spend the day with the dogs, the most trustworthy, loyal friends you'll ever have.

“The UK has a system in which a TV channel can pay a political leader almost half a million pounds a year and give him an hour an evening to react to his rivals without breaking a single rule.”

Feeling a lot of love for Brum at the moment for some reason.

Nigel Farage now says that any suggestion he's been soft on Putin is "just nonsense". Here's a quick reminder of what he's said in the past

Meeting Trump in Budapest is perfect. That's where we promised never to invade Ukraine in the first place.

I sprint train 5 days a week and have gotten my one mile tome to 5:49. I WFH and my son's school is 0.8 miles away. If the bombs start falling I want to get to him in time to at least hold him tight. This all sounds crazy but 5 minutes reading the news makes me stick with it.

Age 7 on my way home from school I'd stop by our local shop. Before I went in I'd suck all my fingers, then go into the shop, run my fingers through the open boxes of sugary, fizzy pick n mix sweets and leave the shop and suck all the fizzy goodness off my sticky little fingers.

Dubai Dicky was outraged when Lucy Connolly was convicted of the same offence. Sounds like he's in favour of two tier justice.

The collective noun for a group of Russian oil refineries is a "combustion".

The fact we signed two treaties, one concerning German reunification & the other with NATO and never mentioned it in either, is another clue. By facts are imperialist.

OTD in 2016 Gorbachev stated quite categorically that he never received a promise by NATO not to admit new members to the alliance. He said the idea that Russia was betrayed is a myth. Which triggers my trolls.

Trump: Putin and I are having a great phone call and he told me Russia is ready for peace. Russia:

🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon who incites political violence, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did 🩸🩸🩸

Accidentally hit the car next to me with my trolley when unloading in a supermarket car park. The woman who owned the car wasn't happy. Began yelling at me about the tiny, barely visible scratch, threatened to send her brothers after me if I didn't pay, etc. Anyway, married her.

OTD in 2002 🇺🇦 began decommissioning its nuclear capable Tu-22 strategic bombers & Kh-22 cruise missiles, as per the Budapest memo. 30 bombers & 230 missiles were destroyed over 2 & half years in exchange for promise 🇷🇺 would never invade. But you can believe our promises now

When you ride in a Tesla, you ride with Yaxley-Lennon.

There are 6,000 children trapped in illegal schools in England – many hidden behind claims of ‘part-time’ education. In reality, they’re confined to cramped rooms, forced to study scripture for hours each day. Donate today to stop this.

That’s why we spend so much on propaganda. Not to make you believe something but to make you believe nothing. So you do nothing. It works.

OTD in 1906 Hannah Arendt was born. "The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact & fiction and the distinction between true & false no longer exist".

Husbands just told me he's been brushing his teeth in the shower for past few months as new routine. When a toothbrush appeared on the shower shelf a few months ago I thought it was to encourage us to clean the grout on a more regular basis.

Carole Cadwalladr was right and we’d be in a better world if more people had listened.

“I’m old enough to remember when mainstream British politicians, who should know better, stirred up racial hatred as a path to power. You’re old enough to remember too because it was last Tuesday. And it was Robert Jenrick” Cathartic anger at flag-flying racism. www.thenerve.news/p/stewart-le...

"Do you still get paid in Roubles Ted?" 🐢💨

We've all heard that there is no free lunch. Well, guess what? There is no free 747 either.

It’s ironic to hear the rights rhetoric about what is and isn’t an insurrection. Mike Pence could have used the National Guard that day—perhaps before they erected gallows.

Wife text me a small household request. I replied okie dokey which was auto corrected to ok donkey. Now I'm making my own tea. Fuck you technology.

Incredible. Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

Portland residents twerking in inflatable costumes at an immigration centre must be the best protest happening right now – and possibly ever. www.thepoke.com/2025/10/09/p...

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs: 1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt? 2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies? 3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

In an attempt to show Gary Neville how wrong he was to suggest that middle aged white men are putting flags up to make a point, some middle aged white men have put flags up outside his hotel to make a point.

"15 years ago, Polish workers came here to find opportunity. Now Poland is growing twice as fast as we are," says Kemi Badenoch. Any ideas what may have happened in the interim?
