This is a superb piece. If there's a sharper writer about cultural issues in Britain today than Nesrine Malik I'm yet to read them.

Nigel Farage is a threat to national security inews.co.uk/opinion/nige...

"There are almost no truly public spaces on the internet. Everywhere we congregate is privately owned, even if it operates as a public space. But we seem somehow content to accept them as fiefdoms in their own right, beyond the reach of government."

Keir Starmer’s speech on nudity apps encapsulates much of Labour’s MPs frustration with him. “Ultimatums” rather than action. Talk big, act small. Perhaps you then eventually do act big but not without losing an awful lot of goodwill in the process.

From now on, any interview with him that doesn’t end like this should shame the interviewer for ever. And yet because he & his backers have corrupted so much of the media, it takes proper courage to do it.

This world cup has demonstrated FIFA's complete betrayal of the game of football and its determination to sell its soul to the highest bidder. The peace prize for Trump was part of a systematic pattern of corruption and exploitation of fans. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

‘One child was so malnourished the doctor thought they had cancer’ I talk to the UK Right to Food Commission about hunger in Britain in 2026: 14m people are in food poverty. They tell me about children so poor they’ve never seen a tomato in the 6th richest country In @heraldscotland.bsky.social

You know you’re doing something right when you attract contributions to your show of this quality - listen to this brilliant text sent in by Carl in response to why the notion of ‘two tier policing’ is gaining traction….

The Indian government seems to have forgotten hundreds of millions living in poverty many without clean water. This is what happens with fascist autocrats as the US starting to see. Money stolen by those who already have the most and stupid vanity projects like this for the dictators legacy.

Nigel Farage is a demagogue who has little regard for facts or the truth. Journalists covering him have no such excuse app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/73749/...

So when Farage said the £5million gift was so he could live in lifelong security he meant to say was it was so he could live in 2nd, 3rd, 4th home luxury .. "Nigel Farage's lavish '£700k' beach pad makeover after £5m gift from crypto tycoon Christopher Harborne" www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

Two-tier policing is real and ever-present. Black and Brown people experience it. Women experience it. Pro-Palestine and green protesters experience it. But the last people who would ever experience it are right-wing white men. They are the people with whom the police instinctively align.

How this is framed is appalling. BBC politics journalism is enabling the far right.

The "Patriots for Europe" name is a joke. This anti-globalist group serves Russian imperial interests, defending the Kremlin while Russia wages war. By starving Ukraine of aid and fracturing European unity, they betray their own nations. Real patriots don't side with foreign autocrats

More than half of the publicly identified donors to Trump’s golden ballroom have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion. Corruption at its finest.

Hegseth is using Nazi vitriolic rhetoric. Vance Trump Musk et al support AfD ‘the Nazis in suits’. If only there was some telltale signs of fascism in Trump’s regime and irony of biblical proportions in doing this in a speech about D-Day 🤔🙄😔 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

A new report shows that nearly half of U.S. households did not earn enough to cover their necessities in 2024.

Brexit bears huge responsibility for the far right strutting about our political stage today. It endorsed racism and ignorance as “legitimate concerns” and it promoted politicians who lied and dissembled because they couldn’t tell voters they’d betrayed them. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

JD Vance and the United States have no right to lecture the UK on law enforcement or how to police. Sort your own house out.

Don’t let pro-Russian traitors take power in European countries. A vote for those parties is a vote for Putin

It's hard to convey just how monstrous the privatisation of children's care homes has become. Highly vulnerable children have been turned into cash machines, with devastating impacts on their wellbeing. Please sit down before reading this week's column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Foreign money funding Reform UK. Another 7m from two overseas British crypto billionaires - £4m from Hong Kong-based billionaire, £3m from Thailand. Tax exiles shaping UK politics. Modern equivalent of representation without taxation. What have they been promised? Must ban political donations.

Welcome to Britain. A country in which an Asian-born man – Ben Habib – allies himself with racists who want to deport him, and a black man – Tony Sewell – battles against racial equity. Morning.

Impractical, intrusive and inhumane - @rachelmillward.bsky.social responds to the ECHR guidance on behalf of Green Party leadership.

Pedo president. One of the worst humans alive today. Shames all humanity and especially America. Shithole country led by such awful shitholes

Imagine being so unable to love your child that you set fire to the whole damn world instead.

Trump: “I understand Artists are getting ‘the yips’ having to do with their performance on Wednesday, so I am thinking about bringing the Number One Attraction anywhere in the World, the man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar, DONALD J. TRUMP”

1/ For the cost of one US Senate seat, a billionaire could buy a G7 country. Oliver Bullough makes that case compellingly in @bylinetimes.bsky.social this week. It deserves more than applause. It needs a strategy. Urgently!

🚨 Alarm bells are ringing in the Horn of Africa. Farms are no longer yielding, pests are spreading, and tropical diseases are emerging. Climate change is real, and it’s destroying lives. #ClimateCrisis #GlobalAction

Trump’s Truth Social posting over the last hour or so is completely batshit insane. Get a load of this nonstop nuttery.

In February, Trump purchased over $1 million in Dell stock. Just weeks ago, Trump told everyone to “go out and buy a Dell.” Its stock price is up over 60% since then. Now, Dell has been awarded a $9.7 BILLION Pentagon contract. See the problem here?

Brexit explained by someone who isn’t a liar and was there and who knows:

Politicians skirt around it. The media skirts around it. But, we have a very sinister far right, racist problem in the UK. Reform and Restore… two cheeks of the same hideous arse… flooding the zone with their hate, their lies and their howling inadequacy. If they’re our future, we’re done for.

Awesome. This process absolutely needed more dehumanisation and error. There was a danger of some lingering compassion. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Reform UK Councillors Gone: Updated James Sidlow has resigned as a councillor. That’s 30 in 3 weeks.

Big Oil is making a $30 million windfall profit every HOUR by using the Iran War as an excuse to rip off commuters at the gas pump. This year, Exxon will be spending $20 billion of its profits on stock buybacks. We must end the Iran War and pass a windfall profits tax — NOW!

Should we have a whip round? Drop a few million quid in his current account. Secretly. And then ask him politely to do his fucking job? Or shall we wait for the donors & disgraced Tories in his ‘top team’ to do it instead?

The Lib Dems have written to the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) saying it is 'unthinkable' that there would be no full investigation if Nigel Farage's phone had been hacked, as he claims www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

We're facing the second lost decade of the century. The far-right will blame migrants. Liberals will tell us the economy is working just fine. Meanwhile, bosses will keep making record profits - unless workers figure out how to take them back.

🚨Elon Musk has boosted the public profile of Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe on X, pulling Britain’s political discourse towards extreme content and amplifying his influence ahead of a knife-edge election in Makerfield More @FT: as.ft.com/r/80f4639f-0...

Nothing quite says “I have no plan” like threatening to blow up Oman, a crucial partner in the region.
