@theguardian.com This article made want to visit Cafe Metro! The food & people sound lovely. I feel sorry for the staff at Gail's though, they must feel unsafe on a daily basis & it was horrible to see the store smashed up in the way it has been: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Whoever made this, it’s BRILLIANT. Trump’s “Board of Peace.”

Culture isn’t a luxury, it’s our common ground. Deeply moved by Dame Tracey Emin’s extraordinary new exhibition, "A Second Life," at Tate Modern. Her work reminds us that even in divided times, art can bind us together and strengthen our communities.

This is fun. By 1400 I am struggling.

I just want to say that I would like less Donald Trump & more Gladys Knight please: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Actions have consequences & in the war against the trans community, imported from the US via Tufton St & foolishly engaged in by the government, all women lose. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

This is a stunning victory of the centre left in Portugal, they got double the votes of the far right & what is the Guardian's take? A focus on the far right getting a large vote share of course, even though it was tine compared to the opposition. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

@theguardian.com you didn't share this, so I am. It's a reminder of just what the priorities of the press & media are & how they don't include the needs of the majority of people in the UK, this time focusing on the tiny 'mansion tax': www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Takes a few seconds and this is definitely needed so please do your bit. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

Always worth a read... eastangliabylines.co.uk/pecksniff/pe...

No asylum seekers arrive in the UK 'illegally'. If I wanted to vote for the Tories or Reform I would have done so last year. I didn't, I voted for Labour & I expect a Labour government, not this Reform Lite shite.

Transgender women are gradually being turned into non-persons, aren't they. Any news about the IOCC views on transgender men, or don't they exist for the current purposes of the alt.right culture war being aimed at the LGBTQ+ communities? Shameful behaviour, not that they or the Guardian care.

@theguardian.com Non Crime Hate is now fine is it. I guess we can now expect threats of violence, harassment & abuse aimed at the trans & LGBTQ+ communities, different ethnic & religious communities, women, children, whoever too then. The UK just became unsafer www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

See the difference? 👀 #NoKings

Linus is right. Release the Epstein files!

I wish I could honestly say this is a surprise but given the enthusiastic way Trump has marched the Republicans to the far right, pardoned thugs, expressed himself many times in speeches, I'm not. There's no excusing any of this, though I'm sure MAGA will try.

The near silence from the UK press & media, BBC included, is extremely telling. One thing is for sure, Farage is starting to get a bit nervous as his finances & Russian contacts start to catch up with him & he tries to do a Trump & distract, distract, distract...

I asked about getting a covid vaccine booster today. Not eligible for the NHS any more, their restrictions are too tight even though they throw £Millions worth away each year. Private cost? £110. Cases going up rapidly. Make it make sense: www.england.nhs.uk/2025/10/nhs-...

That horse was eloquently saying what the majority of the British people were saying about Trump & his visit to the UK.

Excellent article that addresses the concerns of the people claiming asylum & gives them a voice, one that is currently drowned out by Farage, the UK press & media & as the author notes, the increasingly hard line taken by Labour, shamefully. Over to you Starmer & Cooper, you are not helping.

What makes Labour's behaviour really bizarre is that they have decided to alienate those supporters that decided to carry on supporting them after Corbyn left, which is the majority & the people that voted them in. It is an extraordinary display of self harm apart from anything else.

@theguardian.com Why is this deeply depressing piece about 'trad' families who want to murder opponents by dropping them from helicopters & strip women of their rights, with smiles on their faces, in the 'Lifestyle' & not 'Politics' section? www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

This is brilliant! 😂 (From @diaperdiplomacy at the other place)

The internet, can sometime be AMAZING !

Gaza: Doctors Under Attack review – this crucial film is the stuff of nightmares. But the world needs to see it

Nigel Farage says abortion laws are “utterly ludicrous.” MPs are watching. We have days to show them: the public backs abortion rights. Join me and sign the petition now! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/de...

Brexit is crap, unpopular & crap, yet the people of Thurrock apparently think it is because it somehow wasn't done right & I suppose Blue Labour will try & pander to them rather than attend to the majority of people wanting to rejoin. I'm sick of it. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I see the re-launched Observer that has just been flogged off to Tortoise Media has decided to launch with a nonsensical EU story written by Nick Clegg almost designed perfectly to piss off as many former Observer readers as possible. Well done & all that: observer.co.uk/news/opinion...

Apologies for the vulgarity but Trump is really shitting himself as his whole sorry tariff mess blows up in his face, isn't he. Good. Vile excuse for a human being: www.theguardian.com/business/liv...

Parliament debates rejoining the EU Perspective from someone who was there A lot more MPs expected. Most overwhelmingly positive about the concept of the petition (unexpected) It was discussed that rejoining EU would boost the economy, increase global influence, improve @northeastbylines.co.uk

The crapness of Brexit yet again. How long before the Labour government take action? After all, some 80%+ of Labour supporters want to ditch Brexit, let alone the rest of the UK & our finances are a mess as the cuts to the incomes of disabled people grimly shows.

This is not a surprise. Trump & Musk are loathed across Europe & in much of the rest of the world too.

This is an absolute disgrace. Shame on you America, shame on you.

The treatment of this young woman is just appalling & it confirms our decision to scrap our proposed visit to NYC this autumn. Trump's USA is simply too dangerous & unpleasant to consider visiting as a tourist.

Why does the @theguardian.com have this story about the appeal of Reform plastered on its online front page when the party is falling apart?? I'm sick of them being promoted simply because they provide engagement & clicks, dangerous stuff, look at MAGA FFS! www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This looks like a fab read! Whatever upsets the little orange emperor is a win in my eyes www.euronews.com/culture/2025...

I could not agree more. Not 1 penny of public money should be wasted bailing this failed company out, it should be re-nationalised immediately & any new money used to fix its problems not pay off its investors.

I see the porn bots are back with a vengeance. Block, block, block.....

This is an astonishing photo illustrating the relative weakness of Trump next to his benefactor & co-president Musk whilst the little boy holds his nose as he stands too close to the elderly convicted felon.

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom :point_down: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

@theguardian.com ‘They need a reset’: gloom in Davos as Trump boom leaves Europe behind. Trip boom?! He has only just entered office, there is no boom. I know who needs a fucking 'reset' & that is the UK press who continually promote the likes of Farage & Trump at the expense of good governance.

An all too rare bit of excellent news on this stormy morning: www.theguardian.com/environment/...

This is what the Tesla Gigafactory in Berlin looked like last night. Elon Musk & his Hitler salute was projected onto the building alongside the word “Heil”. Organised by the two campaign groups @ledbydonkeys.org & @politicalbeauty.bsky.social
