Jenrick lives in a village where 165 of the 166 inhabitants are white: “I do not want my children to grow up in a country where people of one skin colour live in one part of town, people of another skin colour live in another world, the Muslims, the Jews, the Christians have got their bits of town.”

Jenrick overcomes his reservations - let’s not say prejudices.

We wait with bated breath to see if Badenoch will sue @barristersecret.bsky.social for calling her an outright liar who uses pure fabrication to perpetrate a fraud on the public.

After spending an entire morning defending his suggestion that there are too many non-white faces in the UK, Robert Jenrick ends his speech with the line: "Let's take our country back".

@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk This Prime Minister, has as a consequence of his previous pronouncements and behaviours, rendered himself uniquely unqualified to pronounce upon these matters.

This is a lie. There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years. But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

I understand this. Please tell me you do, too.

Trump’s words are getting simpler, blunter, angrier. Our 2018–2025 speech analysis shows shorter sentences, a shrinking vocabulary, and sharper grievance rhetoric. Decline or design, the outcome is the same: harder populism that fuels violence and binds his base simplyputpsych.co.uk/global-psych...

Farage fails to comment: “Insiders describe the two politicians as being as “thick as thieves” as they plotted their exit from Europe and UKIP.

Putin up a smokescreen.

When will @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @itvnews.bsky.social @nickferrarilbc.bsky.social start asking Nigel Farage the important questions?

"Deported" is a very interesting way to say kidnapped, imprisoned illegally, abused, then released. 🤔

The home of South Carolina Circuit Court judge Diane Goodstein was set on fire and burned to the ground after she received death threats, following criticism by the Trump administration.

Kleptocracy

Yes, very weird. 🤷🏼‍♂️

It’s this - a failure of true moral leadership. 👇

@mrjamesob.bsky.social asks “why now?” This is why now.

SOUTH CAROLINA… “Judge Goodstein was walking on the beach when the fire started. Her husband, Arnie, was in the house with children and perhaps grandchildren. The family had to escape by jumping from a window or balcony...” www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Definitely right ,what are they all so angry about? , Look who's ryling them up & to what end ?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk discusses Gary Neville’s brave confrontation of the racism behind much of the flag waving that has been cynically whipped up in the UK. As James observes, he is “fulfilling his patriotic duty” “He doesn’t have to do any of this.”

If anyone needed proof: Farage is a political operator who actively embraces racism, figuratively - and in this case - literally. Oh - and he has the nerve to pity himself around some inchoate notion of threat after Starmer labelled his dog whistling racism for what it is. Craven conman.

More likely kicked in the head by the Horst-Wessel-Lied

Hitler came to power by mobilising and exploiting a protest vote against economic hardship, while using the cynical scapegoating of minorities as a tool to recruit support for, and direct anger away from, a kleptocratic hierarchy he was creating. Farage shows that this mechanism remains viable.

She was arrested for holding a sign reading: “I do not support the proscription of Palestine Action” How that would warrant arrest is very unclear. I wonder if the police here even understand the boundaries of the bizarre law they’ve been forced to enforce.

Labour have decided there's still a teeny tiny risk of getting too many votes. To be absolutely safe, they're setting fire to another big batch. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
