This is interesting - phenomenon of politicians cosplaying as Christian for cynical reasons but without the cultural hinterland to do it convincingly.

There is nothing the world needs less than more tech execs taking over journalism. Every example so far has shown us that that’s the stupidest, worst possible move for journalism and the public.

Who's gonna tell him?

THREE GOLDS in 3 minutes!!!

It's always the ones you least expect.

This is an extraordinary saga that Sunder is pursuing indefatigably. The BBC has repeatedly tried to excuse itself from responsibility for allowing Nigel Farage to lie egregiously about immigration without challenge. It is illustrative of a much wider malaise & so very important. Thank you, Sunder.

We used to call it “the shits hitting the fan” meal. When they fed you the good stuff, you were about to earn your pay.

Amnesty International say what is happening in Palestine is a genocide. The UN Special Rapporteur say it's a genocide. Countless genocide scholars say it's a genocide. How are we still doing this? And why is the BBC doing this? youtu.be/Es_wxH04bgs?...

Lol yeah and the nights watch falls the fuck apart cause they’re too busy hating the foreigners and stabbed their bold leader with progressive vision to death for not being enough of a gammon lmao

ANALYSIS: Working-age adults in England reported their health declined between 2011 and 2021. Adults in more deprived areas were more likely to report a decline. For the first time, linking Census data across two points makes it possible to measure changes over a decade ⬇️ https://bit.ly/4swwjHk

Good news, folks www.bbc.co.uk/weather/arti...

Wow. If I'm not mistaken, this marks the longest-range use of ballistic missiles in warfare to date. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

The list is as racist, homophobic/transphobic and misogynistic as you'd expect of a school book ban. Of course it was "AI-written," adding an extra layer of awful And... there were 2 Terry Pratchett books on it So: Discworld fans, assemble? 🐢

from a little publication to PMQs and BBC homepage in a month, London Centric stories get coverage. The issue now is whether coverage is enough for the people who are stuck in limbo at the hands of Asif Aziz's Criterion Capital despite doing nothing wrong. Government quote at end of this is telling.

How the fuck do you have a reporter free news room?

Sorry, but following their logic, The Passion Of The Christ at Trafalger Square scheduled again for this Good Friday, will have to be banned.

Jfc. Labour reveals they have already decided, secretly, to remove key legal rights of disabled children and families, in response to legal challenge to Gov SEND consultation. rookirwinsweeney.co.uk/government-r...

Democratic consultants: To replicate Mamdani’s success with the young people we must appeal to their short attention spans with memes and TikTok Mamdani (actual quote): In the fifth century in what we now know as Ireland, a British warlord named Coroticus had laid waste to the countryside

I am in a bar in London. There is a couple across from me. Woman is English, guy is American. She is teaching him to play scrabble for the first ever time. He is both confused, but also apparently winning. It is playing havoc with all my preconceptions.

the Attlee government nationalised healthcare, the railways, the energy industry, telecoms, the steel industry, and the Bank of England, and established the welfare state, introduced free secondary education, and built a million homes

NIH has long engaged the scientific community in a democratic way. That's a good thing, and it's under attack. Watch out. New post by me, about why NIH's peer review process and advisory panels are pretty unique across gov't, and why they're so important.

Centre aligned bullet points?!

Had this through my letterbox and I'm sorry but it's just fucking pathetic. I would say it's below Labour, but I actually don't believe that's true. I think this is exactly the sort of scummy, cynical, desperate tactics that the current PLP would endorse.

new scam unlocked!

fuck your desert island disc, I want to know your Guantanamo bay song. what song would the government use to torture you at a Black Site

As we know these are not serious people

I reckon the reason Labour are so fucked off that prescriptions for anxiety & depression are rising is because it is a pretty solid indicator that life in modern Britain is damaging the health & wellbeing of ever-increasing numbers of people.

I think my favorite part of this suit is where the guy who was suing because Afroman said he fucked his wife said on the witness stand that he did not know for sure that Afroman did not fuck his wife.

this applies to creative work too! I don’t outline my books because I don’t know what’s going to happen until I’m writing it. the process is what generates the ideas and you can’t fast-forward through it

Why is it always regular people shouldn't get ubi because they might stop working and never why do billionaires keep working when they don't have to.

one of the really gross aspects of the AI zombie resurrection thing we should (carefully!!!!!) discuss more is the fact that this is not what Val Kilmer looked like when he died. they don’t want the human Val Kilmer. they want a simulacrum of the idealized memory of him you have in your mind

How Kemi Badenoch's spokesman responded when I asked if she agrees with her Shadow Lord Chancellor that Muslims praying in Trafalgar Square is an "act of domination"

NBC calls the Illinois Senate Dem primary for Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton. 2027 is on track to have three Black women as senators, a new record from the current two. Only five Black women have ever been senators (four elected outright and one appointed). Three years ago there were zero in the Senate
