I'm talking about my experience of listening to and watching the BBC bulletins since Trump delivered his unhinged one hour rant at the UN. James Landale covered some of the content here but the BBC neutralised its repugnance and mendacity of with a “tame” headline.

ScotRail’s train service, *renationalised* in 2022 by the Scottish Government, has the lowest cancellation level in the UK - just 2% compared with a UK average of 3.3%. That means a train elsewhere in the UK is +65% more likely to be cancelled. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

The truth: we need migration. The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it. Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality. Reject it. Draw the line.

Businessman Richard Allen exposed a Channel Islands export-import VAT scam used by major retailers, saving taxpayers billions. Despite his detailed evidence, HMRC suppressed it, letting the illegal tax evasion continue for six more years. 🧵1/3

It would be good if the only political pushback against Nigel Farage's plans to mass deport hundreds of thousands of our neighbours, friends, family and colleagues didn't just come from a handful of backbench MPs and one regional mayor

Reform are now coming after people with permanent residency. It'll be citizens next. No one is safe from authoritarian governments.

So Reform / Farage want to deport hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of UK residents, turning the country into an effective police state, breaking treaties, and impoverishing the economy and health service? Just focus on all that. The moral gutter of politics.

Christian persecution in America is best defined by this image: No actual struggle, wearing clothes that cost more than my entire wardrobe, polished cross instead of rugged, and surrounded by crowds of fellow hypocrites cheering on bigotry who believe they're the victims.

Ach, scoreline doesn’t lie. We had a few moments but ultimately we didn’t show what we are capable and that’s my biggest disappointment.

Baws.

‘Mon the Jags! We have absolutely nothing to lose in this game. No one expects us to get anything. Let’s get tore into them.

The people of Glasgow and beyond turned out. We made clear that we are united, we're together and, alongside the STUC, gave solidarity and support to all those facing hatred and persecution in our communities.

Huge range of movies to watch to celebrate the life of Robert Redford. For tonight I opted for The Sting. Something about getting one over on a horrible self-indulgent despot seemed worthwhile.

Pictured on this night 1921 is the Partick Thistle team which became 'champions of Britain' when, as Scottish Cup holders, they defeated Tottenham Hotspur, the FA Cup holders, by 3 goals to 1! Read all about it... 👀 👉 thethistlearchive.net/match-1921-0...

That's a Labour government minister berating university students and staff by saying that 'too often people go to university to "explore research and knowledge"'. I'm very glad of our students who study history to explore research and knowledge.

In fairness to this man, it can’t be easy making an incoherent vague point about immigration on national TV when you’re dressed like Fight for This Love era Cheryl Cole

Whitehouse grills Patel about if information regarding Fox execs calling Jeanine Pirro a "reckless maniac who makes insane comments" came up during her background check ahead of her becoming US attorney

Everbody has heard of Horst Wessel, right?

Still absolutely nothing to say about far right thugs rioting and attacking the police while a US tech billionaire calls for a violent insurrection on our streets

Right-wing activists are targeting teachers, workers for critical remarks on Charlie Kirk’s death.

Anyone heard from the Prime Minister?

I have no words for this.

I thought you said he was the only “leftist” in his family?

I half expect Starmer to come out with “I support Elon Musk’s right to call for the overthrow of my government.” Honestly, where is he? An utter waste of space.

Glorious.

FT’ Partick Thistle 2️⃣Airdrieonians 1️⃣ O’Reilly equaliser and Samuels with the winner. 3 points secured! #PTFCvAFC #WeAreThistle

Kudos to Mark Wilson tonight. Got his substitutions absolutely bang on.

80’ Partick Thistle 2️⃣ Airdrieonians 1️⃣ WHAT A TURNAROUND. Two in quick succession put thistle in front with 10 minutes remaining of the half. Alex Samuels slots home for the jags. #PTFCvAFC #WeAreThistle

YASSSSS!

YASSSSS!

The Government proscribed Palestine Action as terrorists by claiming that secret intelligence justified doing so Newly leaked intelligence report reveals that most of their activity: - Couldn't be described as terrorism - Isn't violent but focused on property damage -Most of that damage is "minor"

This is our poorest performance since Perth. A*rdr*e want it more than us. Hugely disappointing.

Outthought and outfought in the first half. Big team talk needed.

<spooky music plays>

"We extend our heartfelt sympathy to Saurons family and friends. Although we did not agree politically, we condemn this cowardly act of terrorism and the destruction of a historic landmark" - Keir Starmer

The semi-detached UK arm of Turning Point are likely to be in the news after the awful murder of Charlie Kirk. Worth remembering they're notably more extreme than when originally formed – their head, Nick Tenconi, has called for "millions" of deportations and has been praised by Tommy Robinson.

Tough choice for Starmer to sack Mandelson, but we can all agree it was masterful of him to only do this after 48 solid hours saying he would not sack him because he really really likes and trusts the guy who supported the most famous paedophile the world has ever known.

The least surprising outcome.

Charlie Kirk was killed for saying things "that used to be simple common sense," says Boris Johnson. Here's a few of those things

An absolute disgrace. Shame on Starmer. Shame on the UK government.

By me in the Manchester Guardian. No, I can’t believe it either.

📢 Staff at the University of Edinburgh are on strike against £140m cuts. Show your support to colleagues at Edinburgh university ✊

Scotland's richest 2% now have more wealth than half the population combined. We asked the First Minister why shooting estates owned by billionaires still pay no business rates. We’re losing millions of pounds that could go towards our schools, libraries, and hospitals.

I see the mysterious fully equipped cafe in Fountainbridge that’s never opened and kept clean is available to let. #Edinburgh
