Really important win for journalism but it’s the last paragraph that really struck me Palantir has to pay 95% of the Swiss magazine’s costs - which are $11,000 A case like this in the U.K. would cost *millions* in legal fees. Why it’s so easy for rich to suppress criticism

Viginum chief Marc-Antoine Brillant said Thursday that BlackCore’s election interference extended to New York City, Scotland, Angola, and Togo beyond France The firm was first linked to smear campaigns against three pro-Palestine France Unbowed candidates www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A society with one trillionaire and millions of people in poverty is something to be deeply ashamed of, actually

Thousands have turned out for an Anti-Racism rally in Belfast city centre, organised by United Against Racism and supported by Trade Unions

Hundreds of strangers in Belfast working together. Doing shopping, providing accommodation, driving kids to school, people to hospital appointments. Have just been told of a woman close to us who hasn't left her house since Monday so we'll be sorting her out today and getting her anything she needs

There's no bigger U.S. scandal right now than the human beings dying needlessly in ICE gulags. I took a deep dive into the April death of Philly's Tuan Van Bui, Amerasian child of the Vietnam War Cellmates say ICE's version of his death is total BS My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/tuan...

It's good that Reform UK have won more councils. It will provide even more evidence of their total incompetence when governing before the country decides who should be the next national government. This is an opportunity to expose Reform UK's ineptitude & shallow populism to the British electorate.

The prosecution of Rajiv Menon KC marks a dangerous escalation in Britain’s response to anti-arms trade protest and political dissent aoav.org.uk/2026/the-pro...

A please @labouruk.bsky.social, stop saying that it's up to us to stop Reform. YOU could stop a Reform government in 2029, by introducing the proportional representation so many in the country have been clamouring for. The only way Farage can win is through our crazy first-past-the-post system.

“businesses consistently report rising costs, disrupted supply chains, loss of EU-based customers & new barriers to trade, recruitment, & growth. Many have been forced to restructure, shift operations abroad, or reduce services just to stay afloat.” #Brexit www.europeanmovement.co.uk/business-sin...

If your push for Celtic freedom doesn't include freedom for all Celtic peoples, it isn't worth anything. If your push for Celtic freedom doesn't include freedom for all peoples, it's no good at all. These are easy principles. None of us are free until all of us are free.

We're now into full bracken season in West Cork, which means I take my Opinel no. 12 and cut any stems emerging around young, self-seeded wild native trees, their positions marked with stakes or stones. Such a joy to spend time immersed in nature, helping to release a natural ecosystem in this way.

This is depressing mostly because it shows how powerful pop culture is compared to education. The Flintstones helped normalize the image of humans living alongside dinosaurs, and if someone grows up with that as a “default mental picture,” it can stick even if they later learn otherwise.

When even one of the architects of the Soil Association’s salmon standards says he’s ashamed of them, the game’s up. I’ve co-signed a letter urging the Soil Association to sever its ties with the salmon industry.

Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez: “The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.” 🍿

Just wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Dems just had one of their best election nights since Trump returned to the White House. Again. The results in the battleground states are the latest repudiation from voters of Trump and his agenda and a warning for the GOP heading into the midterms.

BREAKING: Iran’s Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf says the U.S. has already violated key clauses of Iran’s 10-point framework before negotiations even begin — citing Lebanon ceasefire breaches, a drone incursion, and denial of enrichment rights. He calls talks “unreasonable” under current conditions. 1/

Before I became an American, I was Lebanese. Parts of my family live in Lebanon. Anyway, you don't need those bona fides to feel this way, but what is happening in Lebanon right now is a complete outrage. The people there, who mostly are just trying to carve out a living, don't deserve this.

This afternoon, I used Claude to circumvent ChatGPT's safety protocols so I could hack into Gemini to learn how to take over Grok, which I then used to destroy Twitter. It's over. Twitter is gone.

I challenged Labour MP Mike Tapp on the government's harmful proposed immigration reforms. In response he tried to tell me what my *own* constituents think about immigration 🤔 Sooooo, I dug up the receipts on what the people of Bristol Central actually think 🧾👀

So, who else thinks the world cup in the United States will be a bust, as well as the 250 anniversary of the nation? Discuss.

Most honest reporting in the past few weeks.

My heart goes out to the Jewish community in London, given the news. Attacking any group of people based on something that they cannot change is totally unacceptable.

Gool Gwinear Lowen! Today is the Feast of St Gwinear, possibly an Irishman 🇮🇪 who spent time in Breizh ➕before coming to Kernow 〓〓 with other Irish companions where he was martyred by king Teudar.

To The United States of America: When your President & his staff don’t know how to spell the word ‘which’ on a missive as important as this then you know you’ve elected a bit of a dick. 😊

I'll be chatting to Julie Skentelbery on Radio Cornwall later today about this amazing standing stone on Goonhilly Downs.
