So it was Badenoch *personally* who stabbed Britain in the back during the Greenland crisis! Simply unbelievable. Ought to be a resignation matter. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

not only is this an appalling take which attacks Starmer for the actions of a lunatic and not the lunatic, but also strays well beyond ‘unbiased’ reporting

He's a fucking quisling and we should be blasting him on it until Reform collapses

Europe (including the UK) should introduce "exchange controls" (ie bans) for all blockchain tokens like Bitcoin. They serve no legitimate economic purpose, none. They're great for crime and cause terrible envrionmental damage. /1

This man is a fool and has no understanding of global politics in any shape or form.

FYI @lizforleicester.bsky.social. Time to stop taking them at their word, and also time to get government departments, ministers and Labour MPs off the Nazi child abuse platform.

The differance between what *actual* Keir Starmer says and does, and what *press/spokesperson* Keir Starmer says and does is really quite glaring now

Labour can extend this beyond X and start going after Reform politicians making money from the site. "Will Farage give back the money he made from this sex offender site?" Etc...

This is just incredibly deluded. Reform voters simply will not vote Labour by a massive order of magnitude. They're more likely to vote Green!

This clearly isn't a solution: now they're just trying to make money off these sorts of images. And it doesnt excuse the last few weeks either. Enforcement action needed on both counts.

Labour is in government. It has the opportunity, and frankly the moral imperative, to take the lead here. It should announce an orderly departure from X, with a clear timetable, and alternative sources of information for those who have relied on the Nazi child abuse platform until now.

I am extremely confused as to why the UK government and police are saying Grok’s mass-scale CSAM generation is an issue for Ofcom. This isn’t about X failing to moderate CSAM, which is an Online Safety Act issue. It is about the company and its technology being actively involved in its generation.

I have a hunch that if you or I were running a website doing this the "urgent contact" would involve door rams and handcuffs so I struggle to see why it can't be slightly more pugnacious than this.

“If a woman dares to show herself in public in any way, then she can and will be sexually harassed with the aid of genAI-driven tools that can easily turn her face into highly realistic pornography” is an absolute red-alarm human rights disaster

Let's not mince words. These people pretend to be patriots, but are obviously traitors.

Yeah getting a bit bored of the 'why won't Starmer condemn the lunatic leader of the free world with all those nukes and all that power' takes when they clearly know the answer to their own question.

Yes. And Europe has two choices. The first is to be on the menu. The second is to build a federal union that instead of fearing Russia makes Russia fear us, and makes billionaires who have business in our Union, like Musk, think thrice before they call for our dissolution.

There is, to my mind, no justification for the continued use by the UK Government of X as a platform for official comms. There hasn't been for some time, in fact, but if the latest developments around AI-generated image abuse and CSAM don't change the policy I really don't know what will.

X/grok creating and platforming sexually explicit material of children isn’t just a lapse, it’s criminal. Elon Musk and his companies should be held to account. It’s been over a year since I dumped X. It was the right decision then and even more so now. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Nigel Farage says allegations he said "Hitler was right" while a pupil at Dulwich College and "gas 'em all" to Jewish schoolmates are "maybe solidifying our core support". Which is quite a revealing comment.

I was going to comment on this tomorrow, as it's Christmas and all, but the King's Christmas message of unity and community is something which about 80% of the public agrees with, and the reason the far-right hate it is because it exposes how fucking weird and racist they are. Small-minded cretins.

A reminder that this is the same man who has just spent the past week calling all the Jewish victims of his own horrific anti-semitic abuse liars

The fact is no presenter has ever had to leave the BBC for expressing conservative views, or even explicitly endorsing a right-wing party. Was never a problem for Jeremy Clarkson. Was never a problem for Andrew Neil. Was never a problem for Alan Sugar

I mean, this should really go without saying but it's not up to third party observers to decide how the victims of racist abuse should feel about it.

Not for the first time, I’m being told that attacking Farage for his boyhood racism is futile. The opposite is the case, as you can see from how rattled he is by it. And no, it’s not about persuading Farage fans anything, it’s about mobilising the non-voters and encouraging tactical voting.

This is the problem I have with Starmer on this stuff. You can't just give a speech, box ticked, you have to go for these people. Sack Nandy put someone in post who will go 'no, actually, GB news, you don't get to broadcast this filth', for a start. Go for X, Facebook, the lot.

Absolutely extraordinary but at the same time entirely unsurprising. There is, of course, absolutely no way on earth Pollard or the Jewish Chronicle would give this leeway to any figure on the left. You can smell the hypocrisy from space.

This is how the Mail has covered a 70% fall in net migration. The Government should stop kidding itself it will ever get credit for being anti-migration. They could cut numbers to zero and there would still be front pages blasting them for making the UK a socialist wasteland no one wants to come to

Another way of looking at this, of course, is that if you took the triple lock out of the equation, the benefits bill would very likely roughly be increasing in line with projected inflation *if that*

This is beginning to matter. That is encouraging. Corbyn never sued over anti-Semitism allegations. Farage won't either. There is a reason why.

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.” It is, once again, a question of whether interviewers have the temerity to shut down his whining obfuscations.

It would be nice to think that at least some interviewers might ask Farage if he is still a Nazi, but of course none will.

Have been thinking about “immigration has been tearing this country apart.” Surely I’m not the only person to think that it isn’t true, but inflamed rhetoric about immigration by politicians is what is tearing this country apart and so statements like that only makes it worse.

I think the failure to properly regulate social media, or to enforce the regulations/laws that do apply, will eventually be seen as one of the great failures of ~2010-25. And looks like the same will be true of LLMs.

For anyone still tempted to take Dominic Cummings at all seriously, he's now an advocate of Donald Trump-style open racism.

There’s been a lot of complaints that he wasn’t referred to as an activist on QT last week, personally I think it’s an outrage that he wasn’t called a racist as well.

We're now at "black people aren't British". Open sewer racism. Look forward to seeing him on QT again soon.

Central Cambridge Otter! My friend @w-mcewan.bsky.social just saw this Otter near the boathouses! (31 Oct '25) Incredible! @tonyjuniper.bsky.social @jonheath.bsky.social @craigbennett3.bsky.social

No more blatant example of Question Time’s bias than this. Goodwin is a Reform activist and GB News presenter - you’d have to be intentionally blind to think he’s an academic

I think Peston should apologise for this outrageous framing. Not a serious show that any of us should be going on until this kind of nonsense stops.

BBC News last night led with this, closely followed by another case of a horrible murder committed by an asylum seeker. No wonder the atmosphere has got so toxic. The national newsworthiness of these stories is solely the fact that they involve asylum seekers

Saying what you actually think is the most authentic thing a politician can do. Starmer should stop worrying what the reaction might be and do it more often. After all, a lot of us in the UK are not psychotic, far-right racists.

The fact that something like this is being published - *published* - on a major newspaper tells you everything you need to know about how certain media are actively contributing to the collapse of societal norms
