This is an absolutely terrifying escalation by the regime. They have now criminalized our freedom to fight the crimes they commit against us and our neighbors. These protesters acted with extraordinary courage and moral clarity.

Peak oligarchy: Nick Robinson interviews Tony Blair about how we solve the problems caused by the oligarchs Tony Blair tells us we should be nice to Trump, abandon net zero, and embrace AI Larry Ellison really got his money's worth

A disturbing account of the use of lies to spread hate and division by the Reform candidate in the Makerfield by election He is clearly not a suitable person to play any role in public life

Far right newspapers are trying to run a smear campaign against Misan Harriman. We can't let them. Add your name to the open letter, and stand against hate and division. goodlawproject.org/s/4ca10b

Immigration make Britain brilliant

The Trump supporters' logic:

The AI industry has inflated the U.S. stock market and the economy. What happens when that bubble bursts?

this graduation speech moment is notable, and her amazed shock at having failed to read the room feels instructive. when you're inside the bubble, you think everybody else is. but everybody isn't.

We need to be sure that those who work in public life prioritize the public interest and not their own personal interest We cannot be sure of this while they take money from companies who might benefit from policies they could introduce

Presenting the reopening the Strait of Hormuz as a victory is like the Greeks failing to take Troy but celebrating the safe return of their wooden horse

Spot on.

Devastating.

A year ago today, @labourlewis.bsky.social brought his Private Members' Bill on water to Parliament.It aimed to fix our broken system by giving the public a say over who should own it.Since then, the call for public ownership has only grown.Watch his speech: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gIO...

Your regular reminder 👇 🏥 81% want publicly owned NHS 🏫 78% want publicly owned schools 💧 73% want publicly owned water 🚂 70% want publicly owned rail ✉️ 70% want publicly owned mail 🚍 67% want publicly owned buses 💡 65% want publicly owned energy

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Trump’s government has unequivocally crossed a threshold now where even well -documented truth is irrelevant and the murder of US citizens by the state is formally sanctioned. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I'm at a loss for words. I'm glad someone else has them.

“Voters believe that politicians are corrupt. Trump proves them right by flaunting his own corruption; his success confirms their disgust with the system and the need for a champion who has mastered its rules” . www.nytimes.com/2026/01/25/o...

I insisted that Nadhim Zahawi delete this tweet before joining us, because one of our rules is that everyone in Reform UK has to pretend that I’m not racist.

Pastor: I said to this ICE agent, 'Take me, stop harassing her.' The agent got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, 'Are you afraid now?' To which I said, 'I am not afraid.'

Great to see the random headline news generator back in action

Elon Musk’s new pay package could amount to $100B per year. That's the same as 3.2 million cashiers’ paychecks combined. It’s more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks. It’s more than 2 million janitors’ paychecks. Billionaire greed is out of control.

Migration policy is being driven by fear of Reform not by rational thought 'a fall in net migration of 300,000 a year would increase deficit by c. £20bn' We will all feel poorer and Reform will just find another group to blame this on Labour need to find the courage to take on the racist rhetoric

BBC is the last bastion of independent news and Gibb has tried everything to push them to the right of politics. Sky will soon own ITV and GB News is an extreme right wing propaganda channel. Get him out and appoint proper journalists to oversee the institution.

Meh! BBC should apologise again and agree to air Trump's speech from 06 January, in full, for 'balance'. 😉

1/ Michael Prescott of Hanover Communications, whose leaked memo alleging left-wing bias led to the BBC meltdown. You could be forgiven for thinking that a corporate lobbyist & former Murdoch press hack may not have the best interests of public-service broadcasting at heart.

Notable that the supposedly “patriotic” wing of British politics wants to destroy / defund almost all of our national institutions

This morning I laid a wreath of red and white poppies at Bristol’s #RemembranceSunday service. Every November, I choose to wear both a red and a white poppy: red to help those who have been affected by war, and white to work for peace.

Exclusive: Racially and religiously aggravated crimes have risen *67%* on transport networks in England, Scotland and Wales since 2022 - I also found there was a *47%* rise between 2022 and 2024, and a *10%* rise from last year to the same period this year:

More disturbing reporting from The Nerve. How can a scrappy startup in 3 weeks leave BBC trailing in its coverage of Russian interference in our politics?

British.

The Pentagon Press Association said: “...designed to stifle a free press and potentially expose us to prosecution for simply doing our jobs”. US news outlets refuse to sign new Pentagon rules to report only official information www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

“This isn’t some tinpot scandal of bent (politics or dodgy dealing). It’s a portal into a network… seeking to destabilise (Ukraine & US elections). …That UK’s oblivious to (its import & why it matters) fills me with a new wave of alarm.” @carolecadwalla.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Nigel Farage is a Russian asset and traitor to the United Kingdom. For more than a decade I’ve been pointing out how Farage is a creature of fascist Russia as Oswald Mosley was a creature of Nazi Germany.

"The original #NoKings protest was 250 years ago. We've had democracy since then. Now we have a would-be king who wants to take it away—King Donald the First. Fuck that. Stand up and be counted in the nationwide No Kings protest on October 18." 👉👉 nokings.org

We're pleased that the loathsome comments carried by GB News, which equated being LGBT+ with being a paedophile, have been found in breach of the Ofcom code, following 71,000 complaints collected by @goodlawproject.bsky.social. pressgazette.co.uk/the-wire/new...

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Let's not forget ICE just shot and killed a man in Chicago. Silverio Villegas González was his name. A cook. No criminal history. Father of two young kids, whose dad will never come home. A human being, a human soul, another victim of political violence www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

Farage squirms as Rep. Jamie Raskin obliterates the "Putin-loving, free speech imposter, Trump sycophant". Let's share this video so much that our wretched news media and hapless politicians are forced to tell the truth about Farage.

Trump repays Starmer's "hospitality" (grovelling flattery) with an incendiary attack on Sadiq Khan, a man already subjected to an endless stream of racist abuse & death threats. Appeasement of fascists only serves to encourage them.
