🚨UPDATE🚨

joani reid walking around her constituency

The learnèd Sir Keir again maintains that Britain won't be dragged into America and Isræl's war as it stages the bombers doing the bombings in said war. I realise today it is April Fool's but FFS this is bad comedy.

Perhaps it would have been a good idea to come out and condemned the unprovoked war of aggression against Iran, rather than urge restraint and deëscalation from the attacked party?

@gallaethamatt.bsky.social Apropos of a conversation we had a while back, just seen this from Ed Zitron, saying that a big AI company bailout could be on the cards!

😬

For those wondering "how can Trump shit on the UK one minute & then be kissing its head of state's ass a few hours later?: • The UK is a piss-ant, moribund country with nothing going for it BUT • The King of said country is a billionaire with 1000-year-old houses & hereditary "class" That's why

When rightists (who I like) are accused of AS—this is unwarranted, weaponised hate! When leftists (who I hate) say things I don't like—Court Jew! See how it works? The wheel only ever spins one way.

🚨BREAKING🚨 Man who lets neighbour bang his wife not getting dragged into cuckoldry.

Ahhh yes. Good one.

Ah yes, the same United States that used negotiations in bad faith as a diplomatic ruse to forerun military action and assassinate negotiators.

Man, it's all so pathetically predictable. The wheel always spins as it should.

On Starmer's army of PMC blandroids: "Charity roles are one of the most common professional backgrounds of the new Labour intake. Analysis of...238 of the 257 new Labour MPs found that 72 worked in the charitable sector, 72 were political employees and 70 had worked in communications or lobbying."

The lib dems were always about splitting the left wing vote... but then they got into bed with the tories and now they split both equally so tend to hover around the same % all the fucking time. Just centrism on haemorrhoids.

Trump just now on Airforce 1 saying that the US has the best crime numbers since 1900 "long before his father was born." His father was born in 1905.

Terrific. Sensational.

Holy dogshit HAHAHA what a world.

The push in the mid-to-late 2000s by the Orange Book faction to turn the LDs into yet another centrist neoliberal party should come to be seen as a colossal folly.

Britain's newspaper of record proudly doing Infowars-level content with war criminals. Everything is rosy in the garden.

Most people will take from this polling graph the cratering of the two legacy party and the ascendancy of the Greens. I take from this: what the fuck is the point of the Liberal Democrats? Seriously.

This red-figure pottery cup attributed to the Euergides Painter shows a pup scratching away with a hindleg. The dog depicted here is likely a Laconian hound, which were the usual hunting dogs used in Greece. 🐕️ Attic red-figure stemless pottery cup, The Euergides Painter, 510–500 BCE. AN1966.447

The legacy media were only too eager to propagate the "Stop the Steal" narrative in Greater Manchester based on *zero* evidence because : a) Organs of the Monoparty Establishment will always join ranks to kibosh progressive politics. b) Farage is kompromat central & will be easy to bring to heel.

"L'état, c'est moi."

I think I just heard Trump in his latest rambling, verbally dysenteric speech saying that the royalty of Saudi should kiss his ass. I may have heard this wrong, but I don't think I did.

LAB 0 (-27) *In Wales* An extinction-level event, entirely self-inflicted. Red is dead.

Fucking Hell, he's so unchained and invulnerable that he's openly dictating exact times for the market rigging.

You're only allowed two flavours of politics in Britain: 1) Piecemeal, patronising declinism under Party X 2) Brutal, accelerated declinism under Party Y No more, no less.

A king won't involve himself on behalf of a vassal unless it is to his own benefit. "Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests."

The wheel spins as it should.

One of the most preëminent former lawyers in Britain here, telling you with a straight face that incredibly corrupt people would never try to hide the evidence of their wrongdoing. This would be an insult to people with a hamster-level IQ.

To anyone in 2026 who believes a single word that Keir Starmer says: I urge you to seek urgent medical help.

For the last five years or so, it seems like everything's been geared towards being bent as fuck.

Some images just define a premiership.

Badenoch takes us back to the 2010s & the Benefits Street-shaped cudgel used to bludgeon those on welfare as spongers & idlers. Starmer, whose govt has squashed benefits claimants with glee, proudly states that Labour tried to crack down further but were thwarted. The "Labour" Party, everyone.

"This is fine, beverythig's fine."

There's a lesson in there somewhere for the UK, just can't quite put my finger on it

Matter-of-fact, shoulder-shrugging reporting on another instance of global market rigging by the Commander in Chief of the world's largest economy. Banalising and normalising elite criminality is anathema to real journalism.

What's this? Openly criminal behaviour from the guy who illegally stored classified documents in his downstairs shitter? The same guy who allegedly stole furnishings from the White House after he lost in 2020? That guy? Impossible!

He could have just written: “I am a wanker.”

A real tour de force from a man with multiple credible allegations of antisemitism and racism against him from his school days onwards, uniting all the bigotries in a single culture wars statement to support an illegal US war. Blinding work.

🌮 The only thing to actually decipher from this mafia regime is whether what you're hearing is lies and/or bluster.

Labour's aim since Blair has been to supplant the Tories on the centre-right of politics, not revive the centre-left. Hoping that they'll rediscover social democracy is a delusion, the purpose of which is to excuse the Guardian's support for this aim. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

12 reference across 200+ pages?? That is an obscenity. There are *more than 30* hyperlinks to sources in the last article I wrote for @bylinetimes.bsky.social. The book is billed as "drawing on a huge amount of data, rigorous analysis". Bad comedy, that.

What in the wide, wide, world of fuckery??

More evidence that the UK is on the cusp of French-style politics: a Left bloc and Far Right bloc with the legacy parties dessicated and insignificant. Either end of the spectrum wanting root-and-branch change, the self-contented centre happy with the Monoparty status quo.

This guy got upset about Palestine cookies being given out at a school

I wish to God I'd been proven wrong on this, but I haven't been and won't be. The wheel spins as it should.

An AI-enabled Sinclair C5. What a future we're having.

The wheel spins as it should

Yes, of course they fucking do. In fact, the entire Monoparty Establishment does, as evidenced by the political reaction to the illegal war in Ukraine versus the genocide in Palestine.
