Lord Sugar says Boris Johnson & Michael Gove should be 'in jail' for 'lies' they told about Brexit the Sunday Times. The businessman said Brexit was the 'worst thing I have experienced in business.' - Brexit shackled British businesses across all sectors. No patriot should support that.

“Respecting” the result of a referendum held 10 years ago, when it’s increasingly clear that it was won on the basis of a pack of lies and that Brexit is doing massive damage to Britain’s economy, status & influence in the world, is a total abdication of responsibility.

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

Golden eagle introduction in England is about government PR, not conservation The removal of driven grouse moors will do more to encourage the recolonising of golden eagles in the UK than artificial re-introduction | Ross McNally @rossmcnally.bsky.social @sussexbylines.co.uk

Pope Leo XIV previews his encyclical by attacking Silicon Valley’s “unbridled promotion and implementation of technology at the expense of human dignity.”

First Brexit, then immigration and now this. What, if anything, does Andy Burnham actually disagree with Keir Starmer about?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social is very well read. I wonder has he seen this new title?

Water privatisation has been outright theft. Whoever is next PM must commit to ending this scandal and take our water back into public ownership. No more failed regulation. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Yes it's a definite thing.

Sarah Beeny's Property Ladder, a 2000s show in which each an amateur developer would make a series of terrible decisions and then still somehow end up in profit, has been unexpectedly catastrophic for the British economy. Welcome to my TED Talk.

"With Trump advertising his willingness to make 'deals' w/ China that pose grave risks to the US, the question once again arises whether he is a fool, traitor, or both. But at end of the day the answer may not really matter, since either way, Trump is a menace to the country he was elected to lead."

In the first months of 2026, the orange felon traded on the stock market 3,700 times including in companies he promoted. This isn’t just corruption on steroids in broad daylight, it’s unbelievably criminal. He and his officials belong in jail, not in the bulldozed White House.

Red CANZUK - yes that sounds like a *genuine* movement

"The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) warned Yvette Cooper that publishing an article justifying the proscription of Palestine Action might risk prejudicing the criminal trial of activists from the group – but she “went ahead anyway”." www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

The UK data watchdog is all bark, no bite. From failing to investigate complaints to forgoing regulatory action in favour of a slap on the wrist, the ICO isn't doing its job. It's time that the regulator is overhauled, because data protection laws only work if they're enforced. Read our blog ⬇️

John le Carré described Boris Johnson as a "mob orator" who fired up people with nostalgia and with anger. He said "What really scares me about nostalgia is that it's become a political weapon. Creating a nostalgia for an England that never existed, and selling it as something we could return to"

"Reform's just a word for barbarism" www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJkK... Brilliant from @iainoverton.bsky.social

Hawaii just enacted a law that effectively neuters Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

"It might take our producers five minutes to find 60 economists who feared Brexit and five hours to find a sole voice who espoused it. But by the time we went on air we simply had one of each; we presented this unequal effort to our audience as balance. It wasn't." @maitlis.bsky.social

Chinese newspaper cartoon (Today... 😂 )

On reversing Brexit: Starmer: We will be “putting Britain at the heart of Europe” & “incremental change won’t cut it” Streeting: “Leaving the EU was a catastrophic mistake” & “Britain’s future lies…back in the EU” Burnham: ”I want to rejoin the EU in my lifetime”

Immigration make Britain brilliant

Why the biggest lie in British politics is the claim that Nigel Farage, who has received more corporate bungs than any politician in our history, "cannot be bought" www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/the-cameo-...

Christopher Harborne is a new entry on the Sunday Times rich list top ten - worth £18 billion. He bought Reform for 0.1% of his fortune...

One of the biggest mistakes by the government was to tolerate and pander to this group. Far right extremist thugs posing as patriots, who should have been clamped down on from day one www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs. Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $270B. Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $210B. Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter the dire threat of a Reform UK government elected on a minority of the vote

This proposed MAGA-bro slush fund of money Donald Trump gets to hand out to his most loyal fans on a patronage basis, of money not allocated by Congress, is just an astounding new level of corruption for the most corrupt President in history.

Farage is a thin-skinned petulant creep. The pub bonhomie is a carefully-crafted act.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social : "Antisemitism and Jewish safety is not some abstract concept for me. In fact, in the last 6 weeks alone 2 people have been arrested in relation to antisemitic actions towards me and yesterday the Times newspaper published a vile antisemitic cartoon.."

It's not a political party. It's an engine of enrichment for greedy millionaire white men. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The dreadful OFS has had its terrible decision regarding "gender critical" reactionary Kathleen Stock quashed by the High Court. Will have more thoughts once I have read the judgment.

These are extraordinary findings for the High Court to make. Hard to see how the so-called Office for Students can survive in its current form.

Excellent and clear verdict on rigged and prejudiced predetermined attack on Sussex for standing clearly for equality and against hate.

NEW: The Israeli government has approved a $334 million plan to transfer thousands more Israeli civilians into the occupied Syrian Golan Heights. The decision, adopted by the cabinet on April 17, 2026, is a clear statement of intent to commit war crimes.

The Iran crisis will have lots of consequences but one of the biggest is that it's a further indication of how far the US has fallen.

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs. Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $271B. Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $231B. Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Great news last week: “President Sheinbaum signed the presidential decree on April 7, formally creating Mexico’s Universal Health Service, which she described as “a historic step” toward guaranteeing free public healthcare for all Mexicans regardless of which institution they are affiliated with.”

Richard Tice deputy leader of Reform ran four shell companies which did not pay any tax on profits between 2020 and 2022. He's now offering to "put things right". Go on then Richard - resign. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Reports of a third attempted arson attack on Jewish targets in North London this week. It's getting really scary and more people need to start taking it seriously.

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states. DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand. My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases. DOJ is now 0-5. My firm is 5-0. Lesson: When we fight we win.

It take weapons grade arrogance to invent popesplaining.

One man put us in this deadly quagmire. One man is wrecking our economy. One man’s immigration agents have terrorized our communities. One man has ridden roughshod over our system of government. We said "No Kings" 250 years ago. Congress must say "No Kings" today. If not, they must be replaced.

At pre-election rallies in #Hungary, the crowd began chanting: #Russians — go home! The historic slogan "Ruszkik haza" emerged during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and was directed against the #Soviet occupation 👍
