I made the healthiest dinner in history. In a way.

this something is the shingles vaccine btw. evidence for its protection against all sorts of things is growing

Absolutely disgusting. Yes I'm unsurprised but how has our country fallen to a level where naked racism can be broadcast like this?

I think it’s great that people are finally asking Reform difficult questions but we shouldn’t get too excited by it. How many of Reform’s supporters will have watched this? How many will see clips of this on the outlets they get their news from?

If Zia Yusuf and Reform don't want to remove current protected characteristics, but address how white working class people have been left behind, they can add class as a protected characteristic to the Equality Act 2010. Colour is already part of "race". They don't need to repeal and relegislate.

1/2 Two things that Americans should know about this new US imperialism: 1. Empire is one big forever war. It costs the lives not only of those who have to be beaten into submission but of imperial troops. In the 2nd half of the C19 alone British & colonial … www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Happy Lunar New Year! I wish you all happy year of the Fire Horse. This is a great read on why the year of the Fire Horse doesn’t come around often, and what the traits of Fire Horses are in Chinese astrology. www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/arti...

Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, the Chicago-based Baptist minister, political figure and two-time presidential candidate whose soaring oratory and knack for capturing media attention made him a central figure in the Civil Rights Movement and national politics for more than six decades, has died. He was 84.

The leaders of both Reform UK Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire led councils have said Nigel Farage’s call to scrap working from home is not going to happen. It’s a huge slap down of another unworkable Farage nonsense policy by his own council leaders.

As Italy celebrates Festa del Gatto today, the story of the centuries-old bond between Rome and the city's beloved stray cats.

Our government has completely lost sight of the value of soft power, conveyed by the Beeb. It’s not just the loss of it, it’s the vacuum it then creates for others to step into. Imminent loss of funding for World Service is the next shameful step in hobbling the Beeb - which is to all our detriment.

Happy Pancake day, my Bluesky friends!

Wow.

Worth remembering. It's why my mum was okay.

Awareness campaigns like this work, I knew to call 999 when my husband showed signs of a stroke. Because we got him to hospital within an hour he recovered with only minimal loss in one hand - it could have been much worse.

REVEALED: Matt Goodwin, Reform UK’s candidate in the Gorton and Denton byelection, has been campaigning alongside racists and far-right activists in his bid to win the seat. Read the full story: hopenothate.org.uk/2026/02/16/m...

Rest in peace, Robert Duvall. You had many famous roles, but you tried, bravely, to capture Fred Waterford, The Commander in the original film of The Handmaid's Tale.

So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.

Restore Britain have their first ever councillor, Maria Bowtell, ex-Tory & ex-Reform a longstanding Lowe associate (& an employee of Restore). She told me she "fully supports" Conor Tomlinson's proposal to ban all ethnic minorities from parliament & propose a Restore Britain policy paper on it

Inspired by your brunch, but recognising my limited ability, I made this for dinner. Pretty tasty IIDSSM.

It’s a U.K. passport anyway If you want to make a political point, even a fascist or neo-Nazi one, get your facts right And Susan Hall is a useless politician who was roundly beaten at the last Mayoral election in London

Yay all of Matt Goodwin's weird posts on his substack are coming back to bite him, because saying insane reactionary shit for your subscribers is red meat (and easy journalism) for the papers

Susan Hall defecting to Rupert Lowe’s Restore Racist Britain?

It's the world view of rich white men who employ nannies and send their kids to boarding school

Start your Monday right:

No need to listen to a billionaire who moved to Monaco to save paying £4bn in tax. Caricature by @bjennings90.bsky.social.

I have a Wuthering Heights theory. Nelly (Ellen) Dean had a childhood crush on Hindley Earnshaw. #WutheringHeights #BookNotTheFilm

Even Reform are admitting now that it is a straight fight between them and the Greens. Labour is a wasted vote.

Racists for Rupert

These people are the standard-bearers for antitrans hatred: rape-apologists and latent kiddy-fiddlers, who because they’re life-members of the commentariat club, are treated by the rest of the commentariat as if their filth is normal.

A reminder that if you live in England or Wales & were born between 1970-1990 – or even before 1970 – you can help protect your community by getting the MMR vaccine free from your NHS GP now. I did last year. www.nhs.uk/vaccinations...

This, Small Prophets, is a lovely comedy drama series. Quirky, with humour and heart, and without the cliches of so many sitcoms. (Yes, I am looking at you, "Can You Keep A Secret".)

Why has British media not covered the General Strike in India? 300 million workers participated. www.thehindu.com/news/nationa...

can you imagine how disappointed you’d be if you knew nothing about this book and only picked it up for this particular cover

Roses are red Violets are blue Autism is nothing to be afraid of And antivax rhetoric kills children

Bring back global warming! There seems to be a growing political and journalistic class that want to simultaneously reverse any kind of social progress from the past four decades and push ahead with technological progress without any kind of breaks and guard rails. /1
