I see the plan there - campaign as long as they can, go to as many protests for photo ops, head off to picket lines, shout solidarity a lot and avoid any of the complicated part about real solutions with really hard choices - same as the last 40 odd years then

Though really, they should be going by Omnibus 🤣 #TheArchers

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

it finally happened to me -- reviewing a manuscript that cites a paper by me that doesn't exist

I’m sure Matt Goodwin will be along shortly to tell us all whether LNER Customer Service Host Samir Zitouni counts as British or not. news.sky.com/story/train-...

Next time someone tells you that train drivers "just push buttons" show them this from the BBC

PSA.

This is the kind of Labour push back I'd like to see more of

I don't know who to credit this image to, but anyway, they got the price wrong. That 2/9d should read £122 million

To be clear: deportations to increase cultural homogeneity is the text book definition of ethnic cleansing. Demands that come even close to this are so far outside any democratic norm and the rule of law. What has happened to a country when this is not condemned in the strongest possible terms?

Apropos of nothing, I really do think UK journalists and politicians need some reminding that mass deportation of LEGAL immigrants, particularly those with permanent status, is far more extreme than even Trump's America and would basically place Britain completely on its own among democracies.

No, it's not all just good honest patriotism: this appeared on our daily dog walk on Lancing Beach Green. Don't worry, Spitha, you're going nowhere and neither am I.

Nothing to see here. Just Nigel Fartrage keeping a look out for those pesky immigrants.

"Significant contribution to the field" often translates to "first person to care about this very specific thing"

Over the last 24 hours Reform, with just a single policy announcement, have put fear where previously there was none into the hearts of millions of UK residents. No 10 and the Chancellor have said nothing about the ethics of this. I have no words left for them.

Reform are filth. They represent hatred, extremism, ignorance and irresponsibility. They'd make us a wretched vicious hateful little island. If people don't stand up to this, they won't stand up to anything.

The hardest part of academic writing is remembering which synonym for important you haven’t used yet

Harper Moyski. It's worth knowing more about her, her life and legacy, rather than more focus on the guy who basically got what he wished for others as "an acceptable price to pay"

Here’s a poem called ‘English Roundabouts’.

Husband took dog for a long walk in the rain but there is evidence to suggest some of that time was in fact spent in a pub.

I suppose if Russia invades your (NATO) airspace and as a 32-member alliance you spend days arguing the hell about whether or not it was a proper invasion or not before doing very little in response, yeah, sure, they will do it again.

This is really interesting

Every person who says "of course there are some uses for LLMs" should be forced to immediately list what those uses are, taking into account that: a) they cannot be accurate and there is no way to make them accurate b) they have been repeatedly shown to make users dumber and worse at their jobs

“You can’t live in fear” - no, you totally can, I have for years. You need to manage and challenge your fears, but eliminating all the things that scare you is not a reasonable solution 7/

This is how it's done. It made me cackle out loud with the random accusations. Yes, this is bad, but so is everything that comes out of the White House these days.

As Europeans, all this is self-evident, yet many US citizens tie themselves in knots trying to deny these simple facts. It's baffling and heart-breaking.

For most Europeans, it's utterly incomprehensible

people love bringing up japan when it comes to deporting immigrants/ creating a homogenous society, but if you bring up japan's anti-gun laws it's "woah woah woah"

Total abdication of their moral responsibility to call this out

Turned on #r4today. That man and his hobby horse is being talked up again. I can't bear it. I can't bear that the BBC is helping put in power someone who will destroy it.

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

Someone once told me being diagnosed autistic at the age of five must of been a heavy burden. It’s not. My autism is part of who I am. People like me have value. We belong.

ChatGPT 5 boasts it can function at PhD level, “ask me anything”. Spouse inputs the title of his own PhD, says please write me a PhD on this topic. ChatGPT5 immediately crashes. Recovers, then produces a page of articulate garbage citing plausible-sounding but incorrect sources.

The answer is 8

As someone once remarked to Schubert "Take us to your Lieder . . ." (Sorry about that!) What a man, and contribution to political satire

The fact that the President of the United States posts a fake video of a kneeling Barack Obama being handcuffed and we’re supposed to pretend it’s perfectly normal, everyday stuff shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

If they think Superman is woke, wait until they learn about Jesus.

“Canute was making the point that he COULDN’T control everything, that was literally his message but now everyone’s like ‘duhh, Canute’ and it’s really unfair.”

He's just like my little grandson, and that's the whole point. May we never think we're immune from this evil. Whether as victims or torturers.
