A huge betrayal. Won't lower bills. Won't give us more energy security. Won't insulate from price shocks. And sends a clear message to the world that we are backing new oil and gas drilling. www.lbc.co.uk/article/ed-m...

He gives himself too much credit. I'm not offended. I do think he's a racist old idiot.

That "corbynistas" are flocking to the party that Corbyn isn't even in points to the obvious conclusion that "corbynistas" are & always were a fiction of pundit brain & what people want is to be able to vote for a party with left wing policies

I just woke up and now I'm worried. 3 World Wars....?

Blue Labour will kill their party long before Corbynistas do the same to the Greens

Watching Shia LaBeouf describe himself as a “traditional Catholic” (converted three years ago via the TLM), and this remains undefeated:

Oracle just laid off 30,000 people In 2025 Oracle made $57.4B in revenue & saved $3.3B in federal taxes due to Trump's tax cut for billionaires & mega corps $57.4B revenue, $3.3B additional tax savings, 30K workers fired "Trickle down" is the greatest scam in history to rob working people

The Apollo 13 movie for this mission is going to be so dull

There's not much that's cooler than NASA

I thought Oracle sacking 30000 people was an April Fools this morning and I've only just found out it wasn't

Egg sandwich for lunch today.

🧵/ The NHS is about to undergo one of the most radical – and scandalous - changes in its history. From 1st April (the public are the fools in this), GPs will be contractually obliged to seek remote “advice & guidance” from hospital clinicians, making it even harder to see an NHS specialist.

April Fool! The bombers fly right from our runways.

Still absolutely stuns me that she knowingly did this...

Hey news media. Your April Fool’s articles aren’t any different from the disinformation you did yesterday?

This is like the Profumo affair if Profumo had just fucked all the spies, foreign military attachés and forces personnel himself

The Iran War is reminiscent of the Suez Crisis in the 50s, when the rest of the world realised Britain and France were crumbling empires unable to defend their interests anymore. Humiliating for these former world powers, as the Iran war is for the US Now. End of an era stuff.

Labour joining the war on the cost of living on the side of the cost of living

More people in public life (and private life for that matter) need to take this exact stance.

Genuinely one of the most refreshing things about Zack is that he despises the far right press and has no desire to pretend he doesn‘t

Just had a chilling flashback to sky news last night where fleet street fox person said Badenoch was displaying ever-better political instincts, by her saying burkas should be banned because it wins support from Reform voters and puts Labour under pressure

So just smears and bollocks then. Shame it got an airing on every major TV politics show. I imagine this rebuttal will get just as much attention though so no harm done.

In Space, No-One Can Steer Your Cream

Somehow the war started

the hardest part about separating the art from the artist is how i seem to have glued myself to this macaroni picture

what's wild is that every enslaver got their money

As time has gone on I've realized there is a still quite small but now non-trivial chance that the entire Iran War is simply an insider trading operation, creating repeated black swan moments and relying on markets continued willingness to gyrate wildly in the face of absurd and predictably ...

We’re tired of Daylight Saving Time! Bring back permanent Standard Time!

I hate Derby day

#nufc had to find £70m in a hurry two summers ago and sold two young players purely to balance the books. It is very difficult to grow when you are forced to sell good players who don't want to leave, to comply with regulations others don't follow and suffer little in the way of consequences for.

Absolute classic of late stage capitalist civilisation that the true shift to renewable energy wont come from not wanting to make the planet inhabitable but because fascists bombing for kicks and zealotry blocked up the supply chain

Sorry but it is insane that no matter how much clean energy you create you HAVE to peg it to the price of gas and only the response from the Lanyard class is "sorry change is too hard".

Early in Covid was when the penny really dropped for me. Lu had just turned 16, and I can still remember saying to the GP: Let’s face it, if there’s only one ventilator left and Lu and a non disabled kid both need it - that ventilator isn’t going to Lu. I’ve been against assisted dying ever since.

Appeal incoming about 1966

There appears to be a theme of cheats prospering in football circles recently

George Michael is the reverse Morrissey. Effortlessly talented, graceful, soulful, multicultural, and grew in stature with his age. Never a Wham fan, I grew to love his voice, talent and humanity. A massive Smiths fan, inevitably grew up to loathe the sight and sound of god knows he's miserable now.

I spoke with STV news today about the Assisted Dying Bill in Holyrood. Obviously, I had a lot more to say than they could fit in, so let me say it here. (I have limited replies because, of everything I'm involved in, this is the topic I hate the most. I am laying out my position, not debating) 1/

Quite remarkable that Chelsea breaking rules to sign seven players (+ three unknown) who during their respective times at the club helped win a Champions League, the Europa League twice, two Premier League titles, two FA Cups and a League Cup didn't merit a points deduction

THE BRIDE! is a flashy, post-modern hommage to the classics of the monster movie genre, by which I mean YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN, BONNIE AND CLYDE, THRILLER, ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW and what else have you got... HEATHERS maybe, THE PURPLE ROSE OF CAIRO, POOR THINGS...

Short Back and Sides please. No, a Mohican!

I loved this comparison of the two Menaces.

Like, none of the transphobes on the Nazi site seem to have realised this, but “Agent Forstater” has just completely shat on every single argument that her side make, relating to personal safety, to the threat they claim trans people present to them, and to which side is encroaching on whose spaces.

I thought it was quite meta that because this guy did not realise what Theroux had done to Savile, he also didn't realise that at that moment he was doing the same thing to him

Can’t trust anyone who’s said something irresponsible to impress a Sun journalist? No problem boss, I’ll update the filter on the Respectable Public Figures database… [tapping frantically]… wait, this can’t be right

I'd be interested to hear about any other leading politicians being less than honest in the last decade while we're on, because it feels like there was a fair bit didn't get the attention it deserved

Hundreds of MPs just voted to abolish one of the fundamental pillars of democracy (the right to jury trial), but yeah, let's reheat "hypnotits" that's important.

Grand, but I have more faith in Lord Fuckington of Dingley Dell will do the right thing than I do in the parade of former MPs who were booted out by the public, or the ones who were given peerages as a reward for suicide bombing their own political careers for factional reasons, or just out of spite
