Maybe he’d like to go to the front and show Ukrainian men what kind of weenie he really is? It’d be great is Russia kept them all…Daddy Musk, Tommy Ten Names and the Tate brothers

Boris Johnson: "We didn't have a plan for what to do next because we didn't think it was our job to have a plan." And we are all paying the price for that folly.

The arrival of Senegal’s national team in the United States compared to Spain’s arrival in Mexico really shows two very different World Cup experiences. It’s the full FIFA package — the travel, the security, the organization, the atmosphere — all of it combined into one global tournament experience.

Senegal player gives the camera the "You're filthy racists" look. At the USA FIFA World KKKup.

Not so much on FIFA on the sensitive and major issues that have started to plague this tournament but there is good news on the horizon… a new crypto partner 🥳 “Together, we look forward to exploring new ways to connect supporters with the tournament.” Entry into the country would be a start.

🔴 Reform Councillor Who Slammed Angela Rayner on Tax Owed HMRC Over £250,000 Through Failed Firms EXCLUSIVE: Wigan Reform councillor David Bowker railed against the former Deputy Prime Minister, whilst repeatedly leaving taxpayers out of pocket himself bylinetimes.com/2026/06/09/r...

Joe Mulhall is director of research for Hope Not Hate. Obviously this is unconfirmed as yet. But feels significant if it is. Robinson is long overdue a probe into potential foreign interference.

📌 ICYMI — Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s Daughters Are Still Receiving Rent-Free Royal Accommodation — David Hencke Beatrice and Eugenie continue to be housed in Kensington and St James' Palace, despite not being working royals, a new report reveals

Lib Dems propose energy price discounts for all UK households. Don't need gimmicks. Just end energy company profiteering. Decouple price of gas produced electricity from the rest. Abolish VAT on domestic fuel. Move all evies to general taxation. Nationalise energy.

Nationwide building society doubles CEO’s pay to £4.7m. Workers got 3.8% rise. Members denied a binding vote on executive pay. A member prevented from standing for board election by insiders. Nationwide should not be a private fiefdom. Need governance reforms.

"poor me"

Know your evils. TRUMP: CHAOTIC EVIL (evil intent and a joy in corruption, malice and destruction). MUSK: NEUTRAL EVIL (evil effect but all actions taken in service of self-interest, with the suffering of others immaterial). BEZOS: LAWFUL EVIL (mastery at using the levers of power for evil ends).

After 14 years in power, the Tories decide that the right time to abolish business rates is when they can't.

In 2019, a majority of trade unionists voted for Boris. People join a union for protection at work. It’s not a political club no matter how political journalism misrepresents it. Union members tend to vote in line with the population (controlled for demographics).

US evilness

Release The Epstein Files NOW!😡

- There is a very strong gender difference with woman seeming to be (from my limited experience) more willing to give Burnham a chance than men. - Having said all that, Reform have a huge presence everywhere, there are boards across most of the major roads, it certainly gives a sense of dominance

Spent the day in parts of Ashton and Orrell where Labour canvassers are targeting the 16% of undecided voters in Makerfield by-election. A few observations (from a single day) I found surprising - A lot of people who voted Reform just weeks ago say they are prepared to vote for Burnham

All the attention on the screwworm is making RFK Jr.'s brainworm jealous.

Westminster Voting Intention: RFM: 28% (-1) LAB: 19% (+1) CON: 19% (-1) LDM: 14% (=) GRN: 12% (=) SNP: 3% (=) Via Freshwater Strategy, 29-31 May. Changes w/ 9-10 May.

“Camelot!” “CAMELOT!!” “It’s only a model” “Shhhh…”

Imagine that. The stupidest president to ever occupy the Oval Office can’t stop the rolling disaster he started in the Middle East.

The BBC has gone full Reform. Where the fuck is Lisa Nandy??

Or she could just tell Vance to mind his own!!!!

After weeks of “just trust Trump” cope, he’s now helplessly watching a war he swore would be “over quickly” spiral—while claiming he “calls all the shots.” Trump begged Netanyahu not to strike Iran…but Israel bombed Tehran anyway. Trump screamed at Bibi: “You’re fucking crazy.” Master negotiator.🙄

Tottenham reach “basic agreement” With Man City for Savinho as £60m deal nears Tottenham and Manchester City have a basic agreement in place for the highly anticipated transfer of Brazilian winger Savinho to North London. Following a grueling campaign where Spurs narrowly preserved their Premier…

Enriching himself and impoverishing others seems to be working out very well for Farage

Trump's foreign policy amounts to Netanyahu holding the steering wheel while he honks.

A dishonest claim about self-defence was rejected. "This fatal and cruel act of violence has had a devastating impact on Mohammed Algasim’s family and friends. Nothing can undo their loss. I hope today’s sentence provides some measure of justice” - crown advocate. www.cps.gov.uk/east-england...

Go and listen to Fairfield Parlour’s album, From Home to Home. One of the best albums to come out of England in the early 70s and a brilliantly warped masterpiece. Just a cracking “sixties hangover” album.

letter to the Times today

Anniversary of "Tommy Robinson" celebrating the D Day soldiers who needlessly gave up their lives by running into the sea.

Tommy cares so much he can't even remember Henry's name.

Manchester Victoria station. I love the way this map makes Goole one of the north’s leading destinations. My first job was as sports editor of the Goole Times, 1976-78. Port town, population 20,000.

The famous Viking attack on Lindisfarne took place on this day 793, regarded as the start of the Viking age in Britain. ‘Never before has such a terror appeared in Britain as we have just suffered from a pagan people,' wrote the scholar Alcuin.

I don't know that I'd say Xanadu is my *favorite* Rush song but it is the one that most strongly makes me go "how the fuck is this only three guys"

The 30 seats that Reform should win most easily in a 2029 General Election - based on the 2024 arithmetic - if they were sweeping to 250-300-350 seats across the country to be the largest party Makerfield is 29th on the list of target seats by size of opponent's majority.

Trump tells Kristen Welker struggling farmers must wait because he "had to take a little bit of a turn" and raise prices. He admitted he chose to have "higher gasoline" and "higher fertilizer" for a vague promise, yet expects them to thank him. The delusion is off the charts. 🙄

The man with the nuclear codes

🧵An international footballer has been accused of trying to lure a 14yr old British girl behind a hedge for a 'cuddle' after approaching her at a 5* resort in Turkey The familys holiday was exciting in late May when they realised they were staying at the same hotel as a World Cup bound football team

I will continue to plant my flag in the "a PM with 3 years and 400 seats isn't going early" hill. Yes, things look set to get worse. I don't see how dealing with a worse context is easier if you've got a hung parl or a narrow majority and backbenchers angry many of their colleagues lost seats.

The president spent the World War II anniversary sharing AI-generated images and videos of himself.
