Why should any political donations other than a standard annual party membership fee (say £25) be permitted? All other options allow wealthy people disproportionate political influence.

I am talking about my new book on NextGen collectors with @benlukeart1 on @theartnewspaper.official pod. Other items he discusses are The New Museum in New York with an expanded building and a Wardian case in Oxford. Listen wherever you get your podcasts. @lhartbooks @sothebysinstitute #nextgen

When I recently moved most providers made it easy. Not @sky. They were the worst providers I dealt with. Be aware!

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?

She’s learnt her lesson about wanting hotels full of foreigners and immigrants being burnt down. See. Prison does work

So did the $1 Billion Board of Peace membership fee come with a money-back guarantee? Asking for several Gulf monarchies.

Oh dear BBC has gone full Gala magazine (or any other of that type) - about Trump's visit and what Melania was wearing....such drivel "Her choice of bold punctuation of clashing colour palette states clearly Trump's modus operandi that he will continue to do things his own way,"

This shouldn’t be hard. Or rare. But well done all the same.

Some folks shouldn't breed. Bloody imbecile.

Your eternal reminder that Nigel Farage turned up to just one of 42 meetings when he was a member of the European Parliament fisheries committee

The Daily Mail complaining that immigrants have not the English too well. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

This is an incredible story when you read it and discover what actually happened was: - Lammy paid in advance - The driver tried to extort him for a massive tip - Drove off with his luggage - At somepoint clocked he was a VIP - Is now selling the story to The Sun.

superior Guardian correction

How on earth do you satirise this unadulterated mince?

Artnet seems to be finally changing its old-fashioned practices with hopefully a new board and investment. In @theartnewspaper.bsky.social

Breaking: Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Google and a convicted Corgi murderer, says that fact-checking is biased.

And so we move into the next phase of reality’s Squid Game: the end of fact-checking. From now on, what happened, what you think happened, and what you wanted to have happened, are all of equal value. Other than people getting killed, what could possibly go wrong? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

In other news, Nigel Farage didn't bother to turn up to the debate on grooming gangs in the House of Commons just now

He died as he lived, clicking “Forgot password,” then checking his inbox for a code, then putting in that code, then setting up two-step verification, and then waiting for the text message that doesn’t come, and then calling the 800 number, and then downloading an authenticator app, and dying.

Every single racist, rapist and anti-LGBTQ+ bigot is going to start claiming autism as a defence now, and the media are going to let them do it. Absolutely vile, both for their victims and for people with autism.

Absolutely go f**k yourself. Autism is not a "get out of jail free card" for being an arsehole. Do you know how hard so many autistic individuals work to fit in, to be treated "normally"? This type of crap makes it harder for all of us. Being autistic doesn't give you a pass to be a predator.

This is huge. The EFJ represents over 295,000 journalists in 44 countries 👇 www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/media/e...

An inspirational tale for aspiring journalists. Remember, if you're a sibling of the former Prime Minister, and close personal friends with the current editor of your favourite magazine, and his ex-wife, you too can achieve your childhood dream of becoming its columnist

I was already excited to click on a news story about Rudy Giuliani having a meltdown in court today and YELLING at the judge. But nothing prepared me for the courtroom sketch

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in. The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers. This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

Bravo! The Venice Biennale just closed - having sold 700,000 tickets (nice round number, that), plus the 27,966 visitors on preview days! #venicebiennale

OMG: "A recent study conducted by the News Literacy Project found just 18 per cent of US teenagers could accurately distinguish news, advertisement, opinion and entertainment. Nearly half said they believed the press did more to harm democracy than protect it." www.ft.com/content/228f...
