"Do you still get paid in Roubles Ted?" 🐢💨

Brilliant - from Private Eye Magazine.

Andrew has lied about his relationship with Epstein again and again. Charles and William have conspired to protect Andrew for over a decade. We need a Royal Epstein Inquiry NOW. #AbolishTheMonarchy #Epstein

Zia Yusuf doesnt seem to realise that the 'foreigners' who are on Universal Credit in this country are largely receiving it because they are working in areas of shortage, such as health and social care, where pay is notoriously and unfairly low. #bbcqt

Extraordinary that the government is going to go into the next election having spent tens of billions of pounds on an ID card system that will be unpopular *and* produce no noticeable improvements to everyday life instead of renationalising the water industry. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

NASA won’t admit it. but the real reason we’re going back to the moon is to raid antifa’s headquarters.

“We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks that are controlled either by large American entrepreneurs or large Chinese companies, whose interests are not at all the survival or proper functioning of our democracies.” defenddemocracy.eu/macron-democ...

When normal people get a ceasefire agreement they think "Good, this means we can finally stop fighting and killing." Whenever Israelis get a ceasefire agreement they go, "This means we have to hurry up and kill as many people as possible before it takes effect."

If the government really wants to scrap degrees which deliver no value to the UK and indeed have led to £ billions in damage to the economy and culture of the UK then it just needs to scrap the Oxford PPE degree and arrest everyone who has taken it.

Problems with pharma don't mean that quackery works. Problems in aircraft design don’t mean that magic carpets can actually fly. - Ben Goldacre

Despite the ceasefire news, Israelis are still shooting children in Gaza t.me/QudsNen/190555

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials. I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

Don't threaten us with a good time, Daily Express.

Not soon enough.....

I’d like to ask Omid how the comedy gig will stop journalists being abducted and beheaded. There’s a reason Steve Van Zandt wrote Sun City… https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/oct/08/riyadh-comedy-festival-omid-djalili-saudi-arabia

Democide in our times Austerity, wage & public service cuts kill, but are govt policy. Millions can't get good food, housing, education, healthcare, pension. Men in poorer UK areas live 9.7 yrs less than those in least deprived areas. Women 8 years. Govts silent on the human cost of fiscal rules

In summary…

What a great idea, after all who needs to read, or listen to music, see a play, or do anything they enjoy? Just get in that factory and work 15hrs a day and be thankful. FFS.

These days, if you study English, they arrest you and throw you in jail.

Over 75,000 people have now backed our call for fair funding for NHS dentistry. For a generation choices made at the Treasury and the Department of Health have left millions with no options. Our patients deserve better. Join us: https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/fund-nhs-dentistry-now

If you want to win over younger voters, telling them they can't go to university is probably not going to help.

J’ai bien une idée pour la nomination d’un nouveau premier ministre, mais je sais pas si c’est très constitutionnel.

This lurid headline is about British tourists no longer getting away with overstaying in Schengen. Or being 'illegals', as it's often called in the UK.

RISQUE GALORE

Shocked to hear that a populist radical right party is threatening judicial independence in the UK. If only there were a little academic literature on this topic. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

The purpose of putting these flags up consists of four elements: 1. To radicalise individuals by means of getting them used to carrying out clandestine, nighttime activities which may or may not be legal. On the left people call it "killing the cop in your head". It's a training exercise.

Another confirmation of the "everyone is twelve now" theory.

Never forget October 7th 2023, that fateful day when Israelis were brutally massacred by Israeli tanks and Israeli helicopters and Israeli drones and Israeli soldiers and Israeli bullets, and also by Hamas a bit. thecradle.co/articles-id/...

Someone looking at all this with a cold eye might say that Miller and Hegseth are seeking control over the power ministries before a Vance ally invokes the 25th Amendment.

‘left’ commentators when you suggest phasing out private landlords

Without explaining why, the US Supreme Court has declined to take Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal, which would have definitely drawn renewed attention to the Epstein files that the Trump’s administration is trying to downplay and keep out of the spotlight.

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

BBC runs scared from Polanski’s truth-telling with embarrassing Kuenssberg spectacle www.thecanary.co/trending/202...

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead. This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

She was arrested for holding a sign reading: “I do not support the proscription of Palestine Action” How that would warrant arrest is very unclear. I wonder if the police here even understand the boundaries of the bizarre law they’ve been forced to enforce.
