I wonder how many of these have tenancy agreements stating no signage can be erected within the curtilage? 🤔

“I’ve never been more creeped out in my life”, said the poltergeist.

Why do I have to go to the local news section to find this story? Where are the protests demanding an end to the epidemic of white Brits murdering minorities? Will there be a national debate on the ills of cocaine abuse amongst white men?

So the police force accused by Nigel Farage of "anti-white racism" is over five times more likely to target black people for stop and searches than white people The figure is higher than the average for England and has got worse over recent years www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

On this date in 1995 the final episode of The Hanging Gale was shown on BBC One. The period drama starred the McGann brothers: Mark, Paul, Stephen and Renault.

If you suggest police officers shouldn’t kick people in the head, you’ll get the chief of the Met condemning you on national television. If you say the police are institutionally racist against whites and suggest people should riot, you’ll get invited onto a BBC couch to expand upon your theories.

The same people who tell me I can’t ever be British because of my name are saying a guy named Nowak is British, but just for a few days while they hold riots

Impractical, intrusive and inhumane - @rachelmillward.bsky.social responds to the ECHR guidance on behalf of Green Party leadership.

A reminder of what Nigel Farage said following the murder of Sarah Everard by a serving police officer.

A picture that captures your essence.

Personally I don’t want to watch the last moments of a young man’s life. I barely want to read a description of it. Something has coarsened in our public life - using graphic violence to encourage more of the same. Snuff movies used to be an urban legend, now death is shown on the BBC.

This is Nigel Farage’s equivalent of Trump’s Jan 6th “army” It’s a clear strategy: say something highly incendiary, knowing full well scores of thugs will react exactly the way you want them to. You can then claim to “speak for the people” and our media will amplify it every fucking time.

The ramping up of establishment attacks on disabled people, trans people, Black people and protestors means we must internalise, and quickly, the commonality of our experience of being outside, marginalized. And come together in political solidarity. There is no other way.

There are some people who make you want to give them a good, old-fashioned beating up. Nothing lasting, necessarily, just a kick in the balls, a good tie-yank into a hard surface, punch in the chops for a split lip, swift punt in the gut sort of thing. People who want it to be the 1970s again.

What Reform did today was an incitement to rioting and an insult to a grieving family. This bloke should have hung his goddamn head in shame.

Today the Supreme Court, found in favour of the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care to, once again, allow for removal of rights and undermine protection for marginalised and vulnerable people, in this case disabled individuals. This is part of a wider erosion of human rights in the UK. 1/

important to remember, since the press will rarely remind you, that the UK supreme court is not supreme in the way the US one is. Parliament is sovereign and can overturn or legislate counter to court decisions, they just choose not to

Solidarity to all those affected by the sickening reactions and behaviours that have arisen as a result of the behaviour of one individual.

The Supreme Court has today "strip[ped] fundamental human rights protections from potentially hundreds of thousands of severely disabled people" say a group of National Charities for disabled people. www.mind.org.uk/news-campaig...

The next time (because sadly it's almost inevitable it will happen) a Sikh person is racially assaulted, I want that fascist toad doorstepped every single day for his response and an apology for what his culture has done to the country. This, of course, will never ever happen.

Farage is obviously trying to stoke up race riots and exploiting a man’s murder to achieve that. Henry Nowak’s dad said outside court that he does not “want the murder used to create further hatred, division or tension. This is not about racism this is a case about murder." Farage doesn’t care.

Just got an email from a colleague in HR, as I'm a colleague network chair, seeking our endorsement because they want to reduce the ED&I training - 45 mins a year, online - because "people find it a chore." SHE'S THE FUCKING ED&I LEAD.

🚨 NEW: 27 Members of Parliament have signed a motion to reject the EHRC Code of Practice edm.parliament.uk/early-day-mo... Ask yours to join them: equalrecognition.eaction.org.uk/rejectthecode

Really enjoying seeing @callumandersonmp.bsky.social being ratioed into a fucking career grave for this hypocritical, cynical, dishonest, un-self-aware fucking insult to the LGBTQ+ community. If any Labour delegate shows up at Pride they'll be taking their careers in their hands...

I'm not sure it can be argued, "it's a huge thing we're giving you," when the tickets are £85+ a pop. Sure, it's poor etiquette, agreed, but the whole rant is so self-indulgent, condescending and lacking in self-awareness. Expect a backlash more lashy than this... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It is shit like this which is why I get so angry at the people who try and defend or dismiss Labour's rampantly xenophobic and hostile policies on the basis "Reform will be worse". Yeah, they will, it doesn't excuse how utterly abhorrent Labour is though. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Motions concerning crime, children’s wellbeing, pensions, Northern Ireland, the King’s Speech, and even immigration have all been skipped by the Clacton MP www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/whe...

When Sarah Harris and the team took over the diary at The 1865 in Southampton, they expected the usual pressures that come with running a grassroots venue. What they didn’t expect was to receive a PRS invoice for £125,000 within their first year.

"Not bleakly, Not meekly, Beat me on the bottom with a Woman's Weekly!"

Look, plantar fascitis sucks but I think this guy has bigger issues going on

Bluesky says this label will leave in 22 days, so this seems like a punishment for some undisclosed bad behavior.

It's remiss of me for not checking, but I just realised that SEW more than doubled our monthly DD, five months ago, when compared to the same time in 2024. From £36pcm to £76pcm. No dramatic change in usage and no notable underpayment on the bill. Has everyone's gone up this much?

guys I just tried googling this to find the exact Andor quote and jesus fucking christ guys what the fuck is happening here

Here's the serious bit for anyone who'd rather skip the 4000 words of jokes

Starting to wonder if all this focus on young people and work, and various measures that have made it hard for them to find work, are lining up a suggestion about a return to National Service.

What's really striking about this clip is that I laid out some of the nonsense against me - and why it was disproportionate. Journalist agrees some of it is "overcooked." But none of my explanation nor the danger around my personal safety has made the cut....!

Meanwhile, the guy responsible for all the England flags half way up our lamp posts is charged with murder 👀 www.thecanary.co/uk/2026/05/2...

Who the fuck let Tony Blair out of his crypt again? We've talked about this!

Reform - the party where the Chairman has to hurriedly apologise for something one of their MPs has said because it wasn't racist enough.

"we're going in a new direction"

Simply contemptible, revolting, for a member of the Bar, Naomi Cunningham, to endorse the idea that trans women are trans "for reasons of sexual gratification" or because they "are fetishists".

Could there be a better example of "the trans debate" than 98% of women supporting trans people and then one single lone person voting against them and getting their way regardless. It's all such a fucking sham

As an ASB investigator for fifteen years, my personal view is that while a victim-centred approach to dealing with serious offences is correct, being a family member of a victim doesn't automatically qualify you to influence policies or laws on how or why the offence occurred in the first place.

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

Hope he’s ok.

Saw this on the motorway, yesterday (both drivers safe) and it made me wonder, if we're now allocating specific refuge areas, shouldn't we consider creating safety huts or something? Like sturdy bus shelters behind the barriers, to protect people from the elements as they wait for assistance?

Vote Labour, get Tory.
