Good explainer

It is so embarrassing that it has taken nearly a decade for a British minister to say this, a statement of the absolute bloody obvious

Make Peter Thiel into the villain, Democrats. It's all there. He is the node that connects Trump, Vance, Palantir, Musk, Epstein, and so many other terrible players. Just expose it and make him and Musk the face of these psychopathic billionaires ruining our lives.

Married US women, make sure you have in date passports. Women fought so hard for the vote. Don’t let them down.

UK - Andrew Mountbatten & Peter Mandelson are facing a roasting. The Royal family are shamed. MAndelson is likely to face criminal investigation. We’ve also had a throw down with X over child & revenge porn. Meanwhile in France X offices were raided due to the same concerns. Meanwhile in the US…

Wow. From the mouth of babes

Hearing that red states have handed over voting information makes me worry that the wives & daughters of some unpleasant men may be about to have their free vote disclosed. If so, an underground road to safety could be needed. i.pinimg.com/736x/24/d6/c...

#booksky could anyone please give me a hint about a Celtic/UK story myth about a rowan tree/mountain ash? I know of the Norse (Thor) and Greek (Hebe) stories and the Lay of Fraoch but these are not quite what I need. Thanks and Imaginary biscuits for anyone that can help.

ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year! Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him. He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary. His health is declining. Public outrage might save his life. Say his name:

Dear M, we will dispatch one person to watch your ‘documentary’ for every un-redacted page (of you know what) that is released. Can’t say fairer than that.

What! What’s this! ???

NEW ANALYSIS: UK household electricity bills have risen over the last 5 years. BUT: Despite frequent claims that net zero is to blame: 2/3 of the increase is because of high gas prices shows new @ukerc.bsky.social report. Arguably without renewable energy the UK would see even higher bills today.

No comment from me Just his own words “I mean that we need to control the platforms, all the social platforms,‘ ‘We need to stack, rank the authenticity of every person that expresses themselves online and take control over what they are saying, based on that ranking.’ futurism.com/future-socie...

The posts that I made about Iran have been quietly deleted by Facebook. I’m used to Facebook deleting things I post but this one surprised me. We are not supposed to talk about Iran now?

If my family had been connected to the Epstein files and I hoped to make a documentary that could place me in a better light - this absolutely would not be my director of choice. Even the things he ADMITTED to doing were vile www.latimes.com/business/hol...

Nothing. Absolutely nothing excuses this! Every child is equally precious and deserving of freedom and safety.

I don’t believe that it’s only 5,000. The footage that is getting out has young people taking about massacres. Everyone, everywhere deserves freedom, safety and dignity. I’m not ever going to chose one human group over another.

Putin has never loved the USA more. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Leaving NATO at a time like this would be absolutely nuts.

British media would have you believe that Reform have our future in their hands. It was looking bad for a time but there is good reason to believe that they peaked too early. ygo-assets-websites-editorial-emea.yougov.net/images/Custo...

An internet blackout has left Iranians struggling to communicate with each other and to get news of the uprising, and the increasingly bloody crackdown, to the outside world

If this had happened anywhere in Britain or Europe it would be front page news.

Iranians are being so brave. Imagine if the regime finally falls! What a start to 2026 for Iranian young people. www.bbc.com/news/article...

75% slowing of disease progression! That’s life changing for entire families. And this comes just a few years after the new treatment that gives cystic fibrosis sufferers an extra 40 years of life. Science! If only we could have more of that and less of war www.uclh.nhs.uk/news/hunting...

Do both. And if solar parks are built near villages or towns, then offer the people who are potentially affected free electricity to offset their concerns. Solar panels are not nuclear power stations. They can be removed with little environmental impact and can actually benefit biodiversity.

UK govt says not enough money to do basic things. In 2023 Starbucks paid £7.2m in UK corporation tax on sales of £548m in Britain & global profit of $5.8bn. The UK has become a colony, its resources and people are harvested by international corporations. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I opened a TikTok account but hardly ever use it. Now I get anxiety provoking messages like ‘you’ve always been a waste of my time’ at random moments and it takes me a second to realise that it’s just a post headline. Not enjoying that!

These young men fighting for justice receive so little coverage as compared to the Epstein victims. I can’t help wonder how many perps are named in both sex trafficking cases www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Happy Hanukkah to my friends who celebrate. This is not a political post, so please refrain from making it one.

Remarkable kindness and empathy from the Jewish community of Bondi and abroad in light of this horrific anti-semitic shooting. Instead of pouring fuel on the fire and joining hatemongers to condemn all Muslims, they are openly and loudly rejecting it. We stand in solidarity against hate and terror.

Why would some British Indians find allies in Tommy Robinson and Reform? The uncomfortable answer is Islamophobia, writes Kiran Sidhu.

Boycotts - the hammer of democratic people. The term BOYCOTT originated in Ireland in 1880, named after Captain Boycott, land agent who was ostracized by his community (workers, shopkeepers, postman) for unfair rents & evicting tenants. Led to his total social & economic isolation.

Oh.
