IMO very obvious to tell when a website / fun wee app is "vibe coded" because they all have the same boring clean vibe to the CSS

@c-aguilargarcia.bsky.social she did it!

Love an ICO decision notice in my favour ico.org.uk/action-weve-... (was for an FOI sent as part of this story last year www.theguardian.com/education/20.... I felt their reason for rejecting was silly enough to pursue an ICO complaint)

Wow! Looks like starmer has finally called time that's right, called time on wes streeting and his schemes by committing to remain as prime minister for the foreseeable

as a data journalist I am obliged to argue for a synthesis. a third way. We can create a world where both stories and spreadsheets support each other to thrive. A world where we don't judge a spreadsheet by its file extension but by the content of its cells

There are 40 English councils where Labour has seen a record drop in the share of seats, in some cases to its lowest level of representation since the 1970s - analysis with @alexjclark.bsky.social and @michaelgoodier.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-...

Sorry, the Murdo Fraser thing is hysterical

Great analysis of something I always wonder about in the polling booth

If your name wasn't near the front of alphabet you had less chance of being elected yesterday. 📊 For wards with 3 candidates standing per party, we can compare alphabetical name ordering with vote ordering by party If no name bias we'd expect all squares to have the same number of candidates. But…

@lexytopping.bsky.social on the pulse of course

For all the drama of so many councils changing hands, the irony is that in most places not much can actually change on the ground given the squeeze on local authority funding and the weight of statutory obligations on adult social care, temporary accommodation, SEND etc etc

shame for shaun murphy but wu yize a worthy winner

A great scoop from @annaisaac.bsky.social and not such a great look for the other newspaper involved in the story. One wonders whether they were played or aware of what was happening.

Finally is out! Our investigation on young children (including toddlers) sharing #skincare routines on Tiktok with Sarah Marsh, @michaelgoodier.bsky.social @prinashah.bsky.social Pablo Gutierrez, Tom Richards, Zeke Hunter-Green www.theguardian.com/technology/n...

We analysed thousands of TikTok videos and found children as young as two demonstrating their skincare routines www.theguardian.com/technology/n...

Five questions from Paul Lewis here which are rather serious www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Albert Douglas, a British businessman, was imprisoned in Dubai for five years over debts incurred by his son's company. Many others like him remain behind bars. My latest for the @theguardian.com Saturday Magazine www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Shabana Mahmood’s migration changes are expected to save just £600m – about 6% of the £10bn the home secretary claimed, according to the government’s own data. FOI data was obtained by @jdportes.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Is there a way to search posts only from people you follow on here (e.g. like the old filter:follows operator on twitter)? Can't remember who shared a great looking roast lamb recipe months ago

THE ASSET CLASS publishes today! The book is a roving investigation of private equity, a surreptitious realm of finance that has infiltrated almost every corner of our lives…

Every single US military installation in Britain or on British overseas territories should be shut down today

Genuine surprise for me this morning as didn't even realise Rob had entered our piece!

Great to see @stpguy3.bsky.social featured in the economist www.economist.com/britain/2026...

Didn’t want to get affected like this giving evidence. Caught me by surprise. We all lost so much. We have to act on the inquiry’s recommendations. We have to be better now, so that we can be better next time.

And this is the second: www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i... A great team-work with @michaelgoodier.bsky.social, @anlugonz.bsky.social Philip McMahon, Paul Scruton and the international team

Yesterday morning I stepped outside on my balcony for coffee with my wife and our neighbor. The drone was as low as it has ever been. We saw it over our heads. Below, our alleyway had turned into a parking lot for displaced people’s cars. A school next door is hosting around 1500 people.

Nigel Farage stops accepting Cameo requests after revelations about his use of platform; calls @theguardian.com reporter "a loser" for asking him whether that raised questions about trust #ReformUK www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Nigel Farage has called Welsh people “Foreign speakers” in a Cameo video. I hate to break it to you Mr Farage, but if you read a history book you would realise English is more foreign in the UK than Welsh. Big credit to the Guardian for breaking this story: www.theguardian.com/uk-news/ng-i...

Nigel Farage stops accepting Cameo requests after revelations about his use of platform

The Reform UK leader has produced videos that appear to have been used to drum up interest in memecoins, with names such as “Stonks Finance”, “NIG Finance”, “Trump Mania” and “Farage coin”. Latest Farage on Cameo story from @michaelgoodier.bsky.social and me

The first in a pair of articles is out mapping Jeffrey Epstein's email relationships www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i... with @c-aguilargarcia.bsky.social @anlugonz.bsky.social @seanclarke.bsky.social and team

Very snazzy video on what we found when we did a deep dive on Nigel Farage's use of Cameo

We didn't just find his videos - we also found Farage's outtakes, which show when his money-making sideline is interrupted by a text message or phone call, requiring him to re-record the video, he appears quick to anger.

exclusive: Nigel Farage has recorded Cameo videos in which he endorsed a neo-Nazi event, repeated extremist slogans and supported a man convicted over his involvement in a far-right riot. w/ @michaelgoodier.bsky.social

New with @direthoughts.com: We took a look at the entire history of Farage's Cameo account. We found he had supported a rioter, advertised a Neo-Nazi event, and much much more www.theguardian.com/uk-news/ng-i...

OK this is nuts. A vulnerability in the Companies House website that let *anyone* with an account view ***ANY COMPANY'S DASHBOARD***, see all personal info and - I think - modify company records.

I challenged ChatGPT to a writing competition. Could it actually replace me?
