Some people are calling it the most racist World Cup ever...

Today I raised the need to consider involving the National Crime Agency in the investigation into Harrods and Fayed. Survivors have told us these crimes spanned multiple locations and perpetrators - we must ensure investigations match that scale and rebuild trust.

It’s impossible to take this government seriously over online harm whilst it remains on X.

Got into an argument on Sky a few weeks about about banning social media for teens. "But parents want it!" Sure, but that doesn't mean it will work or is a good idea! How about a serious conversation about what social media is doing to all of us, adults included? Or is that too difficult?

The BBC 10 o’clock news says the right wing idea of ethnic minorities being given preferential treatment in criminal justice is likely to become a “growing fault line in our politics” WITHOUT POINTING OUT THAT IT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE. What’s the point of the news if it doesn’t correct disinformation?

The top 2026 X accounts gives insight into the lie that X is the town square. These people are niche celebrities and their influence on X does not represent influence elsewhere. Your participation is not going to change this graph www.natesilver.net/p/social-med...

High tax Denmark is successful, why can’t we raise taxes (would have been more honest @thetimes.com) Also no mention of their proposed wealth tax that he government was elected on? @patmillsuk.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/article/33e2...

The idea English identity is confined to ethnicity & ancestry is more niche than abolishing monarchy/joining Euro But media elites skew & overcompensate to an imaginary caricature of public = weird assymetry: venerate niches on right as 'authentic' but would lecture progressives about median voter

Senior researchers at a meeting of the American Diabetes Association were handing out copies of an editorial, published in the association's journal, condemning Trump administration cuts to diabetes research. Police came to arrest them. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/05/w...

Ooh a lot greater if we have anything to do with it

🤷‍♀️

this is the sort of thing that inspired this noncensored promotional image

Imagine having a megaphone that large and pretending you’re silenced.

In these volatile times, the Government must move much faster. We’re urging them to commit to reaching 3% of GDP on defence by 2030, to adopt our £20 billion defence bond programme proposal and cancel their order of US jets to use the money saved to buy 12 new British-made Typhoon jets instead.

I wonder if Farage had heard reports from Makerfield before he decided to go full-on, out in the open racist. This poll was done before he did.

In nice things news, I know this man and he is absolutely as good a person as this story suggests. www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/06/04/b...

Beth Rigby, "Why should women in Markerfield vote for you when you said they can't drive?" *Reform's Robert Kenyon runs away*

But that would mean they had to think Henry might be telling the truth. In order to make the calculation that it would be better for their career to assume he was lying. And that makes no sense.

In order to think this is about antiracism you have to believe the police officer thought what Henry's claim was probably true but decided it was in the best interest of their career to act as if it wasn't. Which is insane and obviously not what happened.

A reminder of what Nigel Farage said following the murder of Sarah Everard by a serving police officer.

That sounds like one of Ted Rogers' old 3-2-1 streams of logic that somehow turned the clue 'This one is the bin' into 'you've just won a 2-week holiday in Benidorm!' [Sorry, you're probably too young!]

Yet again, an instance of journalistic framing that completely skews the issue toward far right talking points. Part of the problem is a refusal amongst many in that profession to acknowledge the role they can play in cueing public opinion rather than simply reporting it.

SIR Idris Elba of the Arsenal everyone 🔴⚪😂

According to this Harvard study, Elon Musk's cuts to USAID through DOGE are responsible for an estimated 400,000 preventable deaths of children in Africa. hsph.harvard.edu/news/usaid-s...

Roland is one of my favourite commentators on Brexit and much more besides. Chris, obviously, is an absolute boss. This'll be worth listening to.

I've written something about yesterday. ❤️

Stopping defenders putting the King of Brazil in a headlock will definitely stop Arsenal scoring at corners.

🚨🚨The “crazy world” shaped by US President Donald #Trump and #China is prompting #Norway to reassess its relationship with the #EU after two failed attempts to join the bloc. Again, the EU is becoming a very attractive option in this geopolitical turmoil. www.ft.com/content/5c8a...

If by "smashed up" you mean spouted a lot of bollocks and then quit government in a huff because everyone was ignoring him, then yes he did.

🚨 Since his penalty miss in the #UCL final, Arsenal supporters have made Gabriel the top-selling shirt name at the club. His printed name is up 350% since Saturday’s final. At one stage he was outselling any other name x2. @theathleticfc.bsky.social 🔴⚪️🇧🇷❤️ www.nytimes.com/athletic/732...

At the Armoury now and there are a couple of racks of shirts here that have only Gabriel on the back.

Omg 😭

Better to call this event a pan-European Nazi summit, because that is exactly what it is.

The first reporter who responds to Trump’s “You’re a terrible reporter” with “You’re a terrible president” deserves a Pulitzer on the spot.

Turns out you can lose the Champions League final on penalties and wake up the next day and enjoy an incredibly life-affirming experience. After all these years, an Arsenal fanbase united is something to behold. Soak it all up. Enjoy every drop. Don’t forget these moments. Cherish every memory. ❤️

Quite amazing scenes today. We’re all gutted about last night but I wasn’t even surprised by the turnout. This team and the manager deserved their moment and appreciation from us - which we were all ready to give. I truly believe it’s only the start for this group. ❤️🤍

Trump's the Michael Carroll of Presidents.

I feel more emotional about the time I’ve spent with my tribe than the result. Incredible days with people I have been going football with for over 25 years, new friends who’ve become good pals cos of the work I do, pod fans, & random people who have come up to chat. All The Arsenal. What a club ❤️🤍

“Arsenal fans, sir. Millions of them.”

It’s the Second Time he has done this for our State! Thank You Stephen Colbert….

A couple passed our area with a sleeping baby and everyone sang in whisper until they passed 😂 Sensational vibes today.

Hi, expert on far-right extremism here, a history of domestic violence and misogyny is one of the strongest predictive variables for violent extremism, especially on the right. We've been raising the alarm on this for DECADES but no one cares.

There is such a strong economic case for renewables it serves to demonstrate how degenerate politics - and certain political ideologies - have become.

just so weird that people think that if you need to borrow a lot of money, the lender somehow doesn't set the terms
