Stephen Collins in the Guardian nailing it yet again...

Yesterday, Jeffrey Epstein's former account testified, under oath, that the Epstein Estate paid a settlement to one of the women accusing Donald Trump of raping her as a minor, AFTER Epstein had died. This would end any other President instantly. But the press doesn't care.

Reform UK on the war - 9 March, Robert Jenrick: ‘this war needs to come to an end as soon as possible….that’s why Nigel Farage immediately ruled out suggestions that UK might deploy boots on the ground. Nor do we see why British aircraft should become involved in offensive action.’ Daily Telegraph

What a thread.

Labour's Julie Griffiths wins Durham County Council Murton by-election | The Northern Echo share.google/5xfnvUFhvOnG... OH... tucked away on page 17... Please God Farage mania is on the wane

"This rubble is of my first home. The home where my father also grew up. Where my husband and I said our marriage vows." What’s happening in Lebanon is a “human rights and humanitarian disaster in the making,” says HRW’s @lamafakih.bsky.social, whose family home in Beirut was struck.

Reform won big in Durham in May 2025 but a 10% swing to Labour here. * Reform have held one, lost two (LibDems, now Labour) in by-elections * Reform have lost four through defections (Advance, Ind), gaining one

Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran. No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles. Worth a watch. (🎥 BBC News/BBC Verify)

Oakeshott isn't in Dubai "as a journalist" or for journalistic reasons. By her own (and frankly slightly dubious) reasoning, she moved there because she didn't like paying VAT on her children's school fees.

Just listened to PMQs. M. Jeez ...you telling me that you would rather have polanski Badenough or god forbid Farage running the country instead of the serious, grown up and measured Starmer..? She in particular is a disgrace...

“Moved to Dubai for tax shelter and now I’m in a bomb shelter,” says someone quoted in the FT. UK Inland Revenue and wealth tax proponents glued to their screens...

Let me guess, wealthy people who moved to Dubai to avoid paying taxes now want the countries they moved from to protect them?

Reform ARE shameful. And racist. They will push hundreds of thousands of children in to poverty. They will cut wages for millions of workers on or close to the minimum wage. They want to deport our teachers, doctors, friends, neighbours, even our families, because they were not born here. 1/2

Nigel Farage thinks Britain isn't productive because nobody goes into the office anymore. Which will come as a blow to one particular MP ... called Nigel Farage.
