Useful!

What is wrong with these people? Do they not their own customers? Spread the word, they must be punished 🤬🤦‍♂️

About bloody time! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Assault on human rights for not getting pork pies abroad. Liz Truss it's your fault!!!!!

As we head into the 3rd heatwave of the summer, *please* take just 2 moments to sign this petition calling on government to help our communities adapt & prepare for the impacts of #climate change. We are not safe — we need to be #SAFER @climatemajority.bsky.social

Another great trialogue. Real life is analogue - digital is a ghost. citizensreunited.substack.com/p/privacy-is...

Great discussion, including why mainstream media struggle to call a lie a lie - and why they need to change … citizensreunited.substack.com/p/big-tech-a...

Can the chancellor looking upset really tank the pound? With that kind of pressure, no wonder she normally looks robotic.

Interesting… A legal challenge in New York could reveal the truth behind allegations that last year’s election result was “consistent with vote manipulation”

By betraying his voters so comprehensively and so soon, Keir Starmer has done us a favour. He has given us 4 years to design the government we want. In this week's column I explain how it can be done. There's massive potential, but we need to start now. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Can I ask those many journalists who ignored, ridiculed or minimised Carole Cadwalladr’s revelations about Bannon’s Cambridge Analytica and Russian election interference — You won’t apologise. Journos never do. But please acknowledge and fight against big tech and disinformation

This doesn't seem like much on the face of it. Just a major breach of US and world security placing millions of lives in serious danger during war negotiations by a hamfisted, hapless US Administration. The accompanying thread reveals how dangerously useless these dimwits are. So easily played.

A surprisingly uplifting take on AI and creativity. Thank you, once again, @carolecadwalla.bsky.social and @the-citizens.bsky.social for a great discussion. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 kylechayka.substack.com/p/how-algori...

Looking forward to this. open.substack.com/pub/citizens...

Join us for a Live with the author of Filterworld @chaykak.bsky.social, founder of Metalabel Yancey Strickler & journalist @carolecadwalla.bsky.social How Algorithms Make Everything the Same Friday 9th May, 6pm BST ⬇️⬇️⬇️ citizensreunited.substack.com/p/how-algori...

An absolute masterclass in how the UK media platforms and normalises far right politics. This is how Farage wins.

More brilliant work from @carolecadwalla.bsky.social @peterjukes.bsky.social and @the-citizens.bsky.social This time on how Russia has infiltrated British politics and the curious lack of interest in investigating how much our democracy has been compromised. open.substack.com/pub/citizens...

This was brilliant, just brilliant 👏👏👏👏 Thank you @carolecadwalla.bsky.social for bringing these experts together to share their insights. substack.com/@allthecitiz...

Return of the Jed Please someone make this happen!

It should be obvious, but there are none so blind as those that will not see …

My take on AI: Rendering the planet inhospitable for humans by trying to render humans obsolete. There are some good uses, but the focus seems to be on using excessive resources to replicate human interactions (badly). What is the point?

Dystopia warning, but she is spot on 💯

Blair says net zero is "doomed to fail" – but to abandon a rapid green transition away from fossil fuels is to sentence millions to certain death . And he knows it . 12 days left to sign my petition to ban fossil fuel ads – please sign govpetition.uk/700024

🤦🏼‍♀️

Excellent little thread

So I'm attempting my first Substack Live tonight with @the-citizens.bsky.social & @peterjukes.bsky.social & Sergei Cristo, the Tory whistleblower who's at the centre of Sergei & the Westminster Spy Ring. We'll be answering any qs you have on Russia, UK & govt refusal to hold an inquiry. Do join!

Some personal news: meet my new replacement at the all new Observer newspaper. Yes, it’s Facebook’s very own Nick Clegg. Congrats to everyone involved in this absolutely stellar signing. Take a bow. observer.co.uk/news/opinion...

Local Elections May 1st If you’re keen to keep Reform out, make sure everyone you know sees this and puts in their postcode to find out who is best to vote for in the local elections on May 1st stopreformuk.vote

WTAF. Sack Carole and publish a shill for Meta. I think their intentions are clear. Fuckity-bye. 😢 bsky.app/profile/caro...

Sadiq Khan asked for exactly what the striking journalists were asking for: a pause. He was ignored, just like the journalists were ignored. GMG still have questions to answer about this corrupt ‘deal’. What happened to the promise that jobs were safe? They had to sign NDAs - that is all we know!

ASTONISHING result for "idiot", and a real "a new guy rode into town" vibe around "pimhole."

“is my calculator horny?“ our tech columnist asks. “i entered 5318008 into it and turned it upside down. what i saw surprised me”

Fuckity bye RIP, the Guardian-Observer 1993-2025. It wasn't a natural death. The biggest journalistic bloodletting in a generation. Rest in power ✊ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Last Observer article from @carolecadwalla.bsky.social and it is a doozie. The courage to return to Ted, and then call Altman a thief to his face (I paraphrase), she is just amazing. 👏👏👏🥰 www.theguardian.com/global/2025/...

This was a great episode. Thank Good Friday 😂😂

Dystopia is here. We need something beyond 1984 as a reference point. 😱

Everyone’s job was safe, remember 😯 This was about increasing the viability of The Observer, and definitely *NOT* an exercise in cutting costs and sacking staff. And yet, it does look a lot like it was - weird 🤷‍♀️🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Observer staff were ‘banged out’ of the building this evening. Our best wishes to everyone.

We made a comic about Antarctica.

I’m no financial expert, but I hope this is true, and I love it. 👏👏👏👏👏 “Trump talks tough. Carney plays chess. And right now, the board’s his.” deanblundell.substack.com/p/carneys-ch...

I thank god I wore my corset because I think my sides have split 😂

Starting now - a great line up of outstanding people who really understand what's going on, including Claire @cward1e.bsky.social, and Nina @ninajankowicz.com.

I love Bluesky 💙🦋

A rallying cry “I chose to come back to Ted because I’m reclaiming my story, my words” Has left me quite emotional, actually. Bravo @carolecadwalla.bsky.social 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 www.ted.com/talks/carole...

What about Ron Vara, the infamous China expert? Feet up, eyes front, popcorn popped 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
