Why do we ignore women? millihill.substack.com/p/everyone-k...

I think we’ve found the most British crime: Four people have been arrested after custard and apple crumble were flung at a display case containing part of the Crown Jewels at the Tower of London.

Pretty striking to see these two pieces, side-by-side, in the Telegraph and Times last week. ~AA #BrexitDisaster

Nooooooo. RIP legend x

Broadcasters - especially the BBC - have been working hard to ensure they give a voice to the 25-35% of people willing to vote Reform (and harder groups within that, like anti-asylum protest and Tommy protest) Need to pay as much attention to the unheard majority who fear that form of politics

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... This is worth a share as it’s simply the most joyless, needlessly pretentious review ever written. Tiff Bakker seems to think that unless telly is made with her in mind then it’s not good enough. Dreadful writing @theguardian.com

Most of the replies on this post are proving the MP’s point about the levels of toxicity on social media pretty well….

This is beautiful! Tommy Robinson's decision to support banned Maccabi Tel Aviv fans by wearing was the 'final straw' for the club and it decided not to sell tickets for Aston Villa. Now Birmingham won't have to deal with the thugs. Starmer also looks like a fool (again). Beautiful.

Ange Postecoglou has Out-LizTrussed Liz Truss, and like her we also lost a Royal in that time. Nice work, #NFFC!

Goodness. Surely that was the best goal ever scored? #NUFC

Private Eye offers up an excellently scornful commentary on the relentless polling. It’s become ridiculous and has oversimplified our politics to dangerous levels of stupid and irresponsible.

I could not agree more. Labour have been left in the dust on their comms strategy and it will be unforgivable if they don’t address it - the whole country will suffer from their complacency in future.

Farage couldn't care less about the safety of teenage girls.

This whole thread is absolutely peak Bluesky. Dear Americans, not everything is about you.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

A thread of inspirational quotes from two of my idols: Kemi Badenoch and Ange Postecoglou (uh-oh, I may have gotten some mixed up... or have I??) 🧵

It helps to be able to spell the country you say only you are competent enough to run.

Spurs and Forest have swapped places in the PL table this season…. #NFFC

Awful choice of manager. One cup in a severely depleted league (the CL taking so many teams now, devalues the others) should never have overshadowed Spurs’s place in the premier league last season. #NFFC deserve better

You don’t actually have to both sides this. The Jewish community in the UK is not the Israeli government. You can just condemn the murder of two British Jews killed in their place of worship and you don’t have to say a single other thing.

Husband is reading a political biog which contains this fantastic anecdote about George Brown, the boozy Deputy Leader of Harold Wilson’s cabinet:

ID cards are to the left what the smoking ban was to the right. Five years after they're introduced, only crusty comedians in real ale pubs will still be complaining about them.

Agreed - this is worth reading

It’s so easy to be productive when working from home

I’ve been listening to a brilliant podcast on Hitler recently, so perhaps that’s an underlying reason… but I do think the similarities to Reichstag are striking. Plus all other discourse (Epstein, anyone?) seems to have been swept away. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is very good millihill.substack.com/p/right-or-l...

What Helen said. Nuclear blocks, blocklists etc, are only making the silo walls more impenetrable. It’s not healthy or helpful.

I could not agree more. This kind of normalisation of hatred is dangerous.

I wrote a thing. As someone who survived the 1970s and kept the receipts.

Brazil has just shown the USA how things should have been done. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Brilliant 🤩

“Inside the 50th-birthday book for Jeffrey Epstein—a man charged with sex trafficking—is a photo of a novelty size check, seeming to reference the sale of a human being from one powerful man to another. The man whose supposed signature is on the check is the current president of the United States.”

Christ, no. This makes a bad morning even worse #NFFC www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

I'm only surprised that anyone is surprised. Men aren't allowed to touch women, women are not allowed to raise their voice, & there are no women doctors or emergency workers because they all got fired (or worse) - so of course the female victims of the earthquake were going to be left to die.

I don't want to have to go back to the Bad Place to find my own tweet, but when the referendum was announced I said something to the effect that xenophobic rhetoric is a ratchet, not a slope: it can only ever become more extreme, de-escalating it is virtually impossible.

“It is a portrait of two Britains, one of which barely comprehends the challenges facing the other.” My ‪@theobserveruk.bsky.social column: observer.co.uk/news/opinion...

This thread is a gold mine of males with anime avatars, threatening women with violence

Just wow. Someone actually thought it would be ok to post this online, on a thread about women sometimes needing their own spaces.

Whatever we think is happening in Gaza, it is far worse. The war crime of the 21st century is being live-streamed to a world allowing it to unfold. Life is being quite literally extinguished. No-one will be able to explain this to future generations.

Lots of confusion around Epstein. Hope this helps!

🚨 A genocide is happening, but the Labour government is supplying weapons, intelligence and diplomatic cover to the perpetrator. Protesting this is not terrorism.

"The pandemic saw the biggest sacrifice from one generation for another, since the war. Then we said to children: off you go to navigate the [mental health fallout] on your own." An MP with empathy? IT'LL NEVER CATCH ON! Seriously, well done @chrismurraymp.bsky.social. A touching contribution. ~AA

Every day, the same story, the same moral pit. The fall of this murderous government can't come soon enough. The only suitable place for Netenyahu is in court for war crimes.

That isn’t a one off loss of £40bn. That is an ANNUAL £40 bn REVENUE ….the very long term trends are harder to predict but barriers to openness in trade costs. So decline is expected to continue.

Good luck to him apart from the games against us. The club decided he could go for a decent price. He made a massive contribution especially last season. For us now it’s all about who replaces him. #NFFC

Tell me your company has no Brits without telling me
