Brexit has made Gibraltar more Spanish Way to go Brexiters!

Watch the underwriters implore you to buy the dip…

Covid inquiry says 66% of Boris Johnson’s PPE purchasing was duff - better than his Brexit though, which was 100% duff

I see Susan Collins has concerns again

If you didn’t see a book immediately, that’s why we are friends

Elbridge Colby is such a dork

anybody checked in on this guy lately

“Based on highly productive conversations with Middle East leadership, I have decided to replace the 20% United States Reimbursement Fee with Trade and Investment Deals that the various Gulf States will be making into the United States,” Trump wrote. www.ft.com/content/359b...

"I can't afford security so I was given £5million, which I didn't spend on security, so I need the state to protect me, oh wait they're cops and will rat on me, oh woe is me"

Quel homme politique brillant et rassembleur

I made this because as far as I can see nobody else has?

European regulator advises airlines to avoid Bahrain, Qatar and UAE airspace - https://www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/live-blog-update/european-regulator-advises-airlines-avoid-bahrain-qatar-and-uae-airspace

It's incredible to think that a mainstream political position has emerged which is rounding up and expelling British citizens who - by definition of the so-called 'Boriswave' - are mostly non-european in their heritage.

Bring me your huddled masses

Incredible: Nigel Farage declined offer of taxpayer-funded security inews.co.uk/news/politic...

Thing that most mystifies me about Singapore is how British right wingers can come here and think “this is the sort of invisible night watchman state we need in the UK”.

Judge Kathleen Williams didn't just reject Trump's $1.776 billion "slush fund" deal—she dismantled it, step by careful step. It's one of the most consequential opinions of the year, and every page matters. I break down why. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Payable to his “library” presumably

Why don't most Europeans have air conditioning? Dumb? Woke? No - WE DID NOT NEED IT UNTIL FOSSIL FUEL BURNING CAUSED THE CLIMATE CRISIS More info 👇 www.carbonbrief.org/eight-facts-...

New in PN: Lindsey Graham and the rot of modern conservatism "Graham died a coward. From Gingrich to Trump, he embodied the movement-to-racket transformation of the GOP. Has America ever seen a capitulation so self-abnegating as his conversion from snarling Trump critic into swooning cheerleader?"

*Twelve* people arrested in a suspected far right terror threat. The scale of this is extraordinary. Goodness knows how many more are involved. We are in dangerous times. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

One ping only, Vasily

"So let me get this straight, Mr Orbison. You drove all night, crept in her room, made love to her and *then* thought to ask 'is that alright'?"

Reform and their supporters now trying to reframe all journalistic scrutiny of them as being dangerous political attacks, bordering on terrorism. A preview of what we could expect from a Reform government

Nicole Wallace ☠️☠️☠️ "Riddle me this: when Obama ran intelligence, the election was secure and Donald Trump won in 2016… But when Donald Trump and all of his boobs were running US national security, it got all effed up. Is that the theory?"

Rest in peace to one of cinema’s most outstanding artists; the legendary actor Sam Neill (1947–2026)

it's even dumber than you think

I have been expressing desire for an app that alerts me to the presence of pervert glasses in my vicinity. It exists and it's called Nearby Glasses! Immediate download.

Gutted re Sam Neill What a top notch guy

Oh well. Nevermind.

Drax really is a national disgrace Clean, green energy this is not ember-energy.org/latest-insig...

Odd he didn’t comment on the lack of Native Americans / First Nations in the US and Canadian teams

The French team of 2026 - as the best team in the World Cup - seem to be sparking more racist ethnonationalism from conservative politicians outside France (Paraguay, Spain) than they did in 2018 or 1998.

Like you, you mean JD?

I feel like it should be a bigger deal that the Trump administration clearly approved the Ellison takeover of WB/Discovery in part so he could manipulate the news and push CNN (more) to the right.

And Fox nut jobs are now spreading conspiracy theories about Lindsey Graham’s death…

11/ Also observe that anti electrification crowd is always very concerned about the impact on the grid yet never raise these issues in relation to AC. I wonder why?

My lasting image of Lindsey Graham will always be when he theatrically declared “Count me out. Enough is enough!” after January 6th — and then got back in with Trump more than ever before for Trump 2.0

Tim Scott pays tribute to Lindsey Graham: "They played golf together more than any other two folks in public office at any time I think in history"

I thought London was a knife crime hell hole and under sharia law, Nadine?

The determination of Farage and the right wing press to pump out the idea that Widdecombe’s murder was political on the basis of zero facts is predictable but execrable

🧵This story is insane in so many ways that others are more qualified to analyze. Can only add that viz US foreign policy, Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, acting as viceroy of Venezuela is derelict, unconscionable, & impeachable. The SecState's time is scarce, valuable, and not outsourcable. 1/

🤔👍

We've reached the "find out" stage, folks.

I love this video. The Syzran oil refinery is burning due to drone sanctions, and several Ukrainian drones are flying around like they own the place. Which is correct. They DO own the place now.🔥 Russia will say everything is under control. It is, but not under THEIR control.

Anyone remember this?

Reform is a crime scene

Trump is incapable of understanding this.
