Sat reading ‘The Traitors Circle’ by @jonathanfreedland.bsky.social and the reveal of who the traitor is has made me so irrationally angry I want to travel back in time to kick said traitors ass. Maria Von Maltzan is a legend though.

Late to #BBCLaurak Who’s this prick?

I really need the back story of the old dear who just referred to the former Prince Andrew as a ‘daft lad’ on BBC North West Tonight.

Quite glad that the big story in British politics is whether Andy Burnham will apply to stand in a by-election and not people being gunned down by state militias. Solidarity with Minnesotans resisting this barbarity.

It’s a minor thing but why the fuck has the BBC just referred to Mar a Largo as ‘The Winter White House’? Pack that shit in right now.

Girl bands Forever did the impossible by making me quite like Kerry Katona. It also reignited my decades long crush on Melanie Blatt.

I’d like to thank @chrismcfeely.bsky.social for keeping my daughter entertained while we wait for our flight home from our holidays. If you have random views from a Greek island this week. That’s her.

My Dad is working class from a working class town where he’s lived all his life. Some immigrants moved over road from him and you know what he did? He went and said hello, asked them about themselves and told them where the local shops are. He’s nearly 80 and I wish more people were like him.

Elon, speaking at the Tommy Robinson march today: “This is a government against the people and not for the people, this is why everyone is gathered here today…we don’t have another four years…there’s got to be a dissolution of parliament” And the government just…continues to use X.

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social "There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

Andy Burnham has done a lot of good in his career but talking about the importance of the party working together is a bit bloody rich coming from him.

Genuinely a bit gutted about Angela Rayner. A good person, someone to be admired who gets held to a higher standard than the plethora of right wing bastards the Daily Mail loves.

People need to understand just how openly genocidal the rhetoric on the far right is getting towards transgender people. They're openly talking about eradicating us and forcefully mass institutionalizing all trans people. These are people with direct ties to the Trump administration.

See, everyone takes the piss but this is why Harry Maguire is my favourite United player.

BREAKING: COUNTRY NOT BROKEN

It’s fine. I’m used to my team putting in a disappointing performance, I’m a Manchester United supporter. #WEUROS2025

Something something, World War 2, Doo dah, doo dah!

I don’t want to hear a damn word from the usual suspects about Diane Abbott. Yes she was a trailblazer, she’s now a liability and if she’s daft enough to say the same thing that got her in trouble in the first place then that’s on her.

What’s the odds on “a major social network has an antisemitic AI built into it” being raised by lobby with PM’s spokesperson today? A special DCMS committee? Ofcom launching an emergency investigation? Seems it’s so hard to comprehend that people will just focus on more manageable screaming at BBC.

I don’t know what’s wrong with people who still use X. You’re getting your breaking news and sports chat from a Nazi site. Draw a line

I genuinely don’t get this ‘no one knows who Keir Starmer is’ argument that is bandied about. He’s done interviews, there’s been a biography and an insider look at the party under his leadership. I’m sorry that everything can’t be spoon fed in TikTok videos and memes but seriously! #bbcLauraK

“It was I’m a Celeb that turned my head on Farage.” My God, there are some idiots in this country. #bbcLauraK

Keir Starmer is actually quite funny and this is a hill I will die on.

Hey @sixotf.bsky.social my 9 year old daughter just informed me her new favourite Transformer was Emirate Xaaron. Now that’s a fan.

From the very same paragraph in Orwell's essay: "England has got to be true to herself. She is not being true to herself while the refugees who have sought our shores are penned up in concentration camps, and company directors work out subtle schemes to dodge their Excess Profits Tax."

That interview with Reza Pahlavi on Kuenssberg was just fucking weird. He’s either delusional or he’s working with Israel.

Memo from Private Eye to our broadcasters

Damn, days like this I miss Twitter.

Don’t know what’s funnier, Putin losing 40 bombers or Ukraine not telling the big orange bitch what they were planning.

My daughters just asked if I can get her Transformers: Target 2005. This is @chrismcfeely.bsky.social’s fault.

If your business model doesn’t work without breaking the law, then you’re not in business. You’re in organized crime.

Well having been caught up in horrendous train cancellations today (7 hours still not home) I’ve concluded Bluesky is useless for travel updates.

Get ‘em Keir!

The unbelievable condescension we’re already seeing today towards working class people- suggesting they don’t travel to Europe or their kids might not want to go to university and study in Europe- is quite something to behold.

The U.K. fishing industry - weaponised & then betrayed & then abandoned, by Johnson, Farage & the rest of them - is better off under Starmer’s deal than it was under Johnson’s. That’s not an opinion. It’s counting. Anyone claiming otherwise is a liar.

Could whoever is eating sweets at the UK-EU press conference pack it in please.

Amidst the action tonight on #AEWDynamite Beach Break, Taz and AEW remember one of the Human Suplex Machine's greatest rivals, Sabu

A perfect example of how everything the government does is now seen through the Faragiste prism. Does it even occur to the media that a Labour government might just want to help hard-pressed communities without it being a “desperate effort” to wrest back voters from Reform etc etc?

When the Home Secretary is having to argue that the Prime Minister's speech was "completely different to Enoch Powell's", it may be time to pause and reflect on ... lots of things.

Those who are uncomfortable with this Labour immigration announcement, but think it's necessary to satisfy Reform voters, this is for you. You will not satisfy. You will never satisfy.

Sabu was a wrestler you didnt see first. You heard about him. Like you heard about the Exorcist or the Texas Chain Saw Massacre on VHS. An infamous, influential forerunner of the style that would become common place. An incredible look, a unique style, a complete one off. RIP

With a bit of luck Carney will do us all a favour and just chin Trump.

Just came downstairs and my nine year old is watching @chrismcfeely.bsky.social Transformers basics videos.

Listened to the @originstorypodcast.bsky.social on Musk’s Twitter takeover and it finally pushed me over the edge to delete my account.

@dorianlynskey.bsky.social what was the name of that book you mentioned in the latest Origin Stories? About the German people during the Third Reich. Sounds right up my street.

Hope it was worth it to stop a few of us from peeing.

This is dreadful. Peter David wrote one of my favourite comic runs with The Atlantis Chronicles and Aquaman. What sort of country allows this to happen? I’ve chipped in, I hope others will too.

Christ it’s nice to feel proud to be British again.

My wife just glared at me because I laughed when Athena said ‘I was working hard to pull you off.’ #Gladiators
