I swear, every election people on this website do 'people should stand down', 'there should be a pact', and then it turns out that, huh, voters didn't come down in the last shower and they can grasp how our electoral system works.

Still remember Farage joking about winning “without a shot being fired” a week after her murder. Total scum

so this incident in the pub, in which a "mob" bashed Nigel's car up so badly it was written off, but it seems no-one filmed it? for socials? and he didn't tell his insurer or the police or the media? gee whizz, i wanna know more about this, sounds terrible

Paul Nuttall looking down on him smiling. From nonce heaven

Calling a by-election over the sovereign right of every MP to take secret gifts from a convicted criminal. What a time to be alive.

This plus from the GB News yatch wanker tweets he’s convinced himself they can’t look into anything already covered in the year prior to his election & that is not true

All he ever does is whinge

"And that's why I've today decided to dress as the greatest warrior of them all: Liberace"

We asked the party leaders to speculate on what Farage's 2PM speech could entail Andy Burnham: Well, I- Keir Starmer: Fuck off Andy, you're not in charge yet Ed Davey: Hopefully he resigns Kemi Badenoch: My best friend was killed by a Sega Mega Drive

“I will make a statement on my future in public life at 2pm.”

It’s the true US football fans I feel sorry for. Years of satisfying moaning about the dodgy ref and how you’d have beaten Belgium if Balogun had been on the pitch denied by an autocrat’s whim

This is pretty fucking shoddy from King tbh

What kind of sociopath has EVER looked at a PDF document and said to themselves, "This could be a podcast?"

"everyone is stealing, so it's fine if i do" is fundamentally an antisocial ideology and you have to vocally reject it or you are, frankly, a bad person.

i think one of the biggest cleavages in politics right now is between people who genuinely like women and want them to do well, and between people who at best view them as a means to an end and at worst view them as a warm hole they get to keep in their house

authenticity is just another word for charm imo

Russia's latest batch of fake news posts targets parties in Germany from the far-left to centre-right, but stopping short of the far right, for obvious reasons. Note the very similar numbers of replies, views, and reposts, signs of bot networks boosting the post, but little to none real engagement.

haven’t seen America this thoroughly embarrassed on the world stage since we lost that war we started with Iran like 3 weeks ago

I think it looks more like Bernie, Warren, et al. lost a checkers game to a toddler

How do you not just fucking boot that into the sky. This is like watching me trying to do skill moves on FIFA

What the hell is this? They should have lost by 30.

I'm so disillusioned, I almost don't even care who gets the FIFA Peace Prize next year

'ha any American candidate would wipe the floor in the UK elections!' *checks the news* One high-ranking US Senator is currently being Weekend-in-Bernie'd whilst another (liberal!) candidate with a nazi tattoo is dropping out, and it's *not* because of the nazi tattoo

Belgium players mocking the US and Trump's meddling in the World Cup by doing the Trump dance after scoring the 4th goal against the USMNT

Well at least we all learnt something about each other

Very funny side plot right now is that SV people are blasting every substance known to man because they think that AI will invent drugs that will undo the long term damage within the next decade

The enduring image of their tournament is Rafael Leão's face here: bsky.app/profile/nath...

by the way, it is absolutely shameful that it took a month and this woman going public with more details than she wanted to share when the behaviour she had already described, alongside that described by several others, was extremely clearly disqualifying. screenshot from the early June NYT piece:

There was 29 of them I heard. Rounding up.

Mainstream US pundit here

Farage isn't going to make it another three years...

Thought that was the poshest cunt ever at the end then I realised he’s in it the whole way through

The "family" in this case being George Cottrell, who calls Farage "Daddy", so probably counts.

The Times has wrongly attributed all 2025 dependent visas (180) to people joining thousands of past arrivals from Cameroon to a tiny number (12) new arrivals, who are not connected to those dependents, to claim they bought a "ratio" of 15 each. bsky.app/profile/jdpo...

Thank fuck it can end now

*watching Spain-Portugal and a breaking story on this app* well I think rapists should lose things they’re trying to win

perhaps we should view nazi tattoos as disqualifying from here on out. i kind of assumed we'd already view them as disqualifying but was unpleasantly surprised so maybe from here we could all agree not to downplay nazi tattoos since they seem pretty indicative of broad disregard for human dignity

Fuck this campaign. What a bunch of disgusting mercenary monsters.

Every lifelong football fan I've ever met is like "I think players are supposed to serve their suspension" and every adult convert is like "the Archon of Constantinople's epistle on the Pentacostine rites of the eucharist clearly states handballs are mandatory."

This sort of behaviour: send out your MPs to defend you, knowing the line is unlikely to last the day, is a persistent death knell for both party management and political careers.

So any decision can be overturned by threatening to file an appeal to CAS? Not fucking likely - didn’t happen to Senegal

mitch mcconnell, mojtaba khamenei, iran and america have much more in common than they realize

The Celeste Amarilla stuff is pretty fucking disgusting, but this response from Mbappé is absolutely fantastic

correction on this post, Norway didn’t spend any GPFG money for the first 20 years of its existence, but they did tap it in 2016 for the first time, and repeatedly since then due to the pandemic and rearmament post-2022 www.ipe.com/norway-takes...

Ominous

The AIPAC thing has really transformed into “any association with that Jew money makes you evil” which doesn’t seem great
