I don't believe you can achieve anything by pretending concern over migration numbers is real. what they mean is that they are seeing immigrants, or people they perceive as immigrants, and that wouldn't change even if nobody new entered the country at all.

Good Morning

This is what authoritarians are never gonna understand: average, everyday citizens do not like watching paramilitary thugs brutalize children. All the vaporware memes in the world can't fix that for them

RW: The Departed (2006, dir. Martin Scorsese) #Filmsky 📽️ Big fan of this film. As US remakes of Asian films go, this is very much one of the better ones.

This is a powerful story for me. Several branches of the Women's Institute are closing across the UK in protest at the new trans-exclusionary ban against trans women. It cuts through the lie by the media and GC groups about speaking on behalf of women. Solidarity. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

liberals doing voter outreach on Bluesky

This fits a Hell of a lot into such a short film. The writing is excellent, and Henry Fonda was superb.

The people mocking Polanski for this are the ones who raved about the 'good Tory rebels' who got all teary in Parliament talking about how austerity had harmed their constituents before walking right through the door to vote for more of it.

City have a stronger team out than I expected today. Shouldn't have any trouble dealing with Salford.

Guess he didn't have me muted then lol

Drop the charges. 🇵🇸

Luke is part of a government that is selling off our NHS data to a US spy tech firm, Palantir. Luke is part of a government that is subservient to Donald Trump - a dangerous President who wants to annex Greenland. Luke is part of a government that is increasingly desperate & utterly rudderless.

If u get a traffic ticket and don't pay it the court can and very often will issue a bench warrant for your arrest by the police

Three sets of lies before most people get out of bed.

Luke Pollard wants to be allied with Donald Trump.

Nigel Farage can’t get the name of his own district Tendring right. His latest communication was addressed to the people of ‘Tendering’. As always it wasn’t printed in his constituency but in Middlesex by Hardings, yep the ‘whoops we forgot the imprint and broke the law’ printers.

The Conservative candidate for Gorton and Denton declared herself "not a fan of trans issues" at the hustings on Thursday. No attempt at the "complex issues/reasonable concerns" argument. Just disdain. Of course not - she's a trustee of Sex Matters (not a fact she chose to share with us).

Had such a gorgeous night with @bollyvvitch.bsky.social and @jacklikesfilms.bsky.social Ngl did a bit of a cry, darling thank you so much for having us, big love #TransRightsAreHumanRights 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

What the fuck is that person's definition of "embarrass"?? Being castigated by Sesame Street is embarrassing, what they're describing is torture!

Abolish the fucking police.

It's finally here! I've been looking forward to this for months, I can't wait for people to hear it. It's been amazing watching @bollyvvitch.bsky.social create this, and I'm so proud of her. Please given it a listen and share!

Wanna upset Pam Bondi? Be a hugely misogynistic piece of shit, that'll show her!

'perfect companion'

It's just absurd. Nonsensical, bigoted bullshit.

A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful. Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.

This is unhinged. He can't even be arsed to make something up to suggest there was any kind of a threat. He genuinely thinks its acceptable to say London is dangerous because a man was tired.

Listened to this through and can confirm it is a certified banger, Slurms Seal of Approval folks

Shabana Mahmood abstained on the original vote to proscribe PA. And a reminder that she has a majority of 3421. Independent candidate came second and currently being investigated for fraud so unlikely to stand again and Greens got 3,478 :)

Folks, it's out. This is not a drill 🔥🔥

So the court rules on trans rights, and the Labour government claims they are powerless, but the court rules on Palestine Action, and the government wants to fight it?

'Courts are important but I absolutely MUST be allowed to just ignore them'

This is a weak moment for our courts. In concluding that the action was illegal, but delaying in actually ordering that that illegal action be stopped, they become complicit in its illegality. This is a bone they've thrown the Government & its wholly wrong. The proscription should be quashed now.

“Palestine Action is the first civil disobedience organisation that does not advocate for violence to be proscribed by the British Government as a ‘terrorist’ group, in a Trumpian abuse of power which would have seen this Labour Government proscribe the Suffragettes": Ammori.

I share this only to help those contemplating whether to tweet "I support Palestine Action".

Love that the High Court ruled that prescribing Palestine Action as a terrorist group was unlawful but as they also ruled the ban must remain in place until a future hearing, the BBC must remind its reader that expressing support for them will get you arrested. Normal country.

This is wonderful news and now we move on to vengeance.

Breaking: on two counts, the High Court has ruled that the Labour government's proscription of the campaign group Palestine Action was unlawful – a win for its co-founder Huda Ammori, who sought a judicial review of the ban

Everyone with the tiniest ounce of understanding knew this. Everyone at Labour knew this, but the genocidal bastards did it anyway. It was a complete unjustifiable authoritarian attack and we've known that from day one. Yvette Cooper must go. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Unclear if the politician here is lying, or simply west wing brained so they think our Supreme Court is the same as the American one? Because the UK government can, in fact, simply change the law on which a judgement rests. It absolutely can do that.

NHS deal with AI firm Palantir called into question after officials’ concerns revealed. Govt officials warned that the contract would not offer value for money, but Starmer and Streeting still went ahead. Mandelson took Starmer to meet Palantir’s chief executive.

If Moderna is no longer bringing vaccine trials for Epstein-Barr virus (good evidence that EB causes Multiple Sclerosis), herpes, and shingles because of Trump appointees, I want prison time for those appointees. This might be dooming millions to disease they don’t have to experience.
