Mick Lee gone today.

Mount Fuji from space.

Reform UK have lost 101 councillors in the space of a year.

It will get a rousing FUCK OFF from me

My favourite culinary accusation remains the one about how my love of "elitist cheese boards" caused Brexit.

Kraftwerk Belfast Fantastisch

Brexit isn't really about the EU anymore. For many who voted for it it never was. It's a proxy for racism. That's the dividing line now.

Something very dispiriting about the lazy assumption that a people in a place that voted a certain way 10 years ago would be incapable of reacting to new information (and of course plenty of the original voters are now in the great polling booth in the sky).

Actually, this photo is PROOF that gullible dimwits will believe a Shakira concert in Rio is London and it will be wildly shared and liked on Musk's X because it is designed to encourage and reward such lies and misinformation.

The alt text on this is 😂😂😂!

One of the interesting tangential aspects of Trump's visit to China is that he can't control the media output. Some of the photos are UNREAL. Had to check this carefully suspecting it was altered or AI gen, but I have found it on three known press outlets with credit to a global photo agency. 😱

Oxfam Belfast. Sound advice

I don't think political marches should be banned. But maybe they should end at Wembley Stadium instead of Parliament Square. That way, if anyone says "There were two million there" you could point out Wembley only holds 90,000.

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

Great idea. I recommend Colm Tóibín and M John Harrison.

Who looks at these flags on roundabouts and lampposts and feels pride? Far right thugs and racists. And who looks at them with fear and loathing? Everyone else. National flags are being used as Nazi bunting by Reform and the far right. Let’s call this what it is. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Hope Yer Weird FB Uncle doesn't overdo it on cocaine and daytime beer and fall down an escalator on his march today x

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...

People have the right to march, etc, but I'm with Sadiq. Those flag loving bores are not representative of our city, which they hate - largely because it disproves every dim witted thing they stand for.

Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.   Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us.

At the airport eyeing up another person's noodles thinking yum I'll have some of that...till I see it's Itsu. I cannot understand how anyone can eat their dish water soup. Makes me shudder to remember how awful their food is

I still hope there won’t be a leadership contest. If there is, it’s probable that Keir will stand himself and in which case, I’d be in his camp. What we need now is continuity. We need Labour to deliver on their manifesto. We haven’t even been two years into this government.

I just don’t think there should be a leadership challenge. Keir Starmer has a massive mandate given to him by the British people at the general election. I don’t think anybody in the Cabinet has a right to try to overturn that. www.telegraph.co.uk/gift/d0332ac...

frank.riot This poster has found itself on the route of tomorrow's 'Unite the Kingdom' rally.

The Kings speech was totally overshadowed yet put forward numerous Bills for the coming year. I’ve popped few on this List. Government under Keir Starmer still getting on with delivery. Which is what being PM is all about #DoingTheMediasJob #FixingBritain #LabourAchievements

Burnham and co need to stop their nonsense and join the fight against this sort of thing now. This and similar should be the headline news, not the Labour Party.. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Reform UK Councillors Gone Since Local Elections Lost Seat:5 Resigned: 7 Defected: 4 Suspended: 4 Andrew Harrison & Kenny Hope just resigned from Durham Council over leadership (Andrew Husband and Darren Grimes).

Trump hearing "cisgender" and thinking its "six genders" then getting all mad about it, thus forcing other Republicans to agree that the libs are now demanding there be six genders, is a perfect encapsulation of our Golden Age of Dickishness and Stupidity.

The idea that a press photographer is somehow posing a threat to Farage and that's why he needs £5 million for security is in addition some Buster Gonadian bollocks

Farage has shared an image of an NUJ card belonging to a photographer that has presumably been dropped nea (one of)r his properties. For someone so concerned about his own security, he seems perfectly willing to whip up his followers against someone who presumably has none.

Just to pin this down properly - Reform UK Party Ltd claim Nigel Farage wasn't in politics when he got his £5M "gift" from Christopher Harborne early 2024 Richard Tice was leader from March 2021 until June 3rd 2024 when Farage took over again, but Farage remained the person with significant control

So finally we know what “Brexit benefit” actually means.. A £5million payment to Farage. Our country is now deeply divided, poorer, unhappier, less influential, less secure, less welcoming and less democratic… But Farage is a multimillionaire. What a fucking disgrace.

I think this maybe the most niché bit of trivia I’ve ever heard.

How many dead American soldiers and others caught in the middle will this PR cost us, monsieur Bonaparte?

And, of course, the media will start laying into him, just as they have with Keir Starmer. And he'll be the leader without a general election mandate.

The media assault on Starmer was fierce, because they knew he was a figure that was dangerous to the right wing parties. They wanted rid of him and being replaced by a leftwinger, is just what they wanted.

If he becomes PM, the media will dig out all the old skeletons from his cupboard.

Nigel Farage bought £1.4m property in cash shortly after receiving £5m gift

Nigel Farage is a GRIFTER - pass it on.

Someone posted yesterday that the average cost of a re-run is £35k.

Elect a lot of clowns, expect a circus. Yet people still vote for these fools, every councillor for deform that resigns there should be fines to the party to pay for the subsequent by elections.

'Millions' of pounds saved by replacing Palantir tech in refugee system The government said its in-house IT system was "more flexible" while meeting "high standards" of security.

Anyone not calling it a wesignation is a coward

Why exactly would a Thailand-based economic migrant secretly give Nigel Farage £5 million as a 'reward' for delivering Brexit? I won't get to ask either of them this question but every single journalist & broadcaster granted access could...
