The tale of every single last Reform-led council so far is them discovering that there is no secret Net Zero Department for Pronouns that accounts for 45% of council budgets, panicking, ordering an entire budget surplus worth of flags, and then falling apart in acrimony.

Who’s paying for the roads?

Marjorie Taylor Green isn’t a known antisemite because she criticizes Israel, she’s a known antisemite because of all the talk about secret cabals, Jewish space lasers, Great Replacement theory, and Jews killing Jesus. Hope this helps some leftists who are mad at AOC for being right about her today

just got an ad of my own fucking wedding

this really does make me despair. this is a woman who has just got elected as a Reform councillor. she works for the NHS and wants to know “where the money is going”. it’s going on social care, babe

It'd be the same 6 dildos on the Supreme Court destroying our rights so can we PUH-LEASE stop this shit.

Really do think something quite profound occurred when Gordon Brown was hot mic’d back in 2010 ; at that point, everything certain kinds of voters said were irrefutable truths regardless of how exaggerated or simply untrue it was. But also, it made for great entertainment for tv news channels

ITV News just vox-popped an older northern woman who said that she had switched from Labour to Reform because she was angry that illegal migrants were “getting hotels when British people can’t get hotels”. At some point Labour surely just has to say these people are completely politically illiterate

So, the transphobia aimed at a newly elected [Trans] member of parliament has already started The national broadcaster [the BBC] uncritically using language to describe Trans+ people that Trans+ people 1. Do NOT use to describe themselves 2. Consider to be highly offensive, and dehumanising

Blue Labour will say “better to turn Camden into a marginal in order to win Barnsley” and then get absolutely destroyed in Barnsley.

Even before this….let’s accept for a moment that Labour do have more to fear from Reform. Labour have done essentially everything that Luke and Morgan wanted and it hasn’t worked. It’s like saying the fact you have to win football matches validates Igor Tudor!

Love to live in a country with a voting system that fits its politics so well.

YES YOU DO, YOU DO ACTUALLY DO THAT, ESPECIALLY ON LONG FLIGHTS. CHANGING PILOTS DURING A FLIGHT IS A THING THAT REGULARLY HAPPENS, DAVID

You couldn’t give me a million dollars to embarrass myself this bad.

not to be draconian, but i do think if you do this, you should be shot

"I know we're shit, but...please...please"

Unironically this was perfect comms strategy.

I'm hardly a puritan, but if friends told me either of these stories above the age of about 22, I'd be urging them to get help for their drinking problem.

"May your tits be ever in season" as the traditional British saying goes

The law needs to catch up on this, AND QUICK. This is HORRIFYING and totally covert manosphere shit. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It was a real shock when I realised so much of the US discourse on voter suppression/staying in line was because polling stations are huge and fairly centralised. I’ve always voted at a local primary school and I’ve almost always been able to see it from my house.

Just took 93yr Mum to vote, she's registered blind. In a very loud voice she said, "Which box for boob hypnosis?" A cheer went up from waiting voters

Rutgers School of Engineering canceled a commencement speech by Rami Elghandour—an alum and executive producer of an Oscar-nominated film about Hind Rajab, a Palestinian child killed by Israel—because "some" students complained: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... His response (via X):

Our aid cuts have been just as severe. It won't kill as many people because we spent less to start with, and focused a bit less on health/food programmes. But we've got nothing to be proud of here.

this is what you look like when you unlock all the pieces of your class legendary armor and then you’re idling in town next to the mailbox

important to point out the creator and showrunner of this is the babadook from the "adults drinking wine vibe" meme

we are in hell

TFW you're a completely real person who wants cHaNgE

Imagine if bipartisan education funding met the most basic needs first. Imagine if it prioritized students being fed and clothed and learning in schools with fully-functioning plumbing and heating and A/C. Imagine if we fully funded and implemented K-12 sex ed before funding AI training.

Being gay about to be illegal in Slovakia

Very concerning that Reform are proposing to build their concentration camps so inefficiently. Just not a sensible party of government.

Also this is a prime example of this era of Fascism as Trolling. Doing horrible terrifying real world horrors for the most inane petty reasons. Destroying lives and freedoms for the sake of a post to trigger the left that emasculated you

Greens should obviously retaliate by proposing LGBT crack dens in every Reform constituency.

Disabled people in the U.K. report rising abuse from the public over Blue Badges as anti-benefit rhetoric grows. Many told The Guardian they have been verbally harassed, with some even physically assaulted. My story in today’s paper: www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a... 1/5

I have no idea what's happening on Eastenders and this might be the funniest scene I've ever randomly tuned into

a lot of atrocious takes coming out about the random acts of violence being meted out against random Jewish people in London and i think sometimes you actually don't need a hot take, you can just say "shit this is bad isn't it"

this is literally a plate of potatoes, salad, and avocado

A young British neo-Nazi has been convicted of planning a terror attack Alfie Coleman, now 21, was arrested in September 2023 after exchanging £3,500 for what he thought was a gun and ammunition in a car park in Stratford, which he'd actually bought from an undercover MI5 officer

a straight man will eat pussy *one time* and make an entire post and lab test about it

This quote is making the rounds again and people are goggling at it, because on its face it makes no sense. It might help to consider that this is all a euphemism for "the only use case for our product is self-insert porn with an actress who did not consent to her image being used this way."

just google boobs please. so many boobs available to simply google. for god's sake please just go to any browser and type "boobs"

Sometimes people ask me why I still have facebook

Well, it’s the cancer.

Disabled people in the U.K. are facing harassment from the public for using a Blue Badge. Many said they have been verbally abused for “faking”, with some being filmed on phones, physically intimidated, or having their mobility aid pulled away. My exclusive: www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...
