Large parts of this are clearly AI.

Can I say something

The shop with the sign 'Local is Lekka' 8km south of Zambia's border with Congo marks the northern boundary of South African influence in the region

One issue I’m comfortable admitting I’m in a woke bubble about is eating meat. Honestly, weeks go by where I kind of forget there are people out there who aren’t vegetarian.

His heart doesn't seem in it. Also I don't understand why so many Labour politicians feel the need to do this self-flagellation thing. Opening your argument with "we lost trust" doesn't make you look honest, it makes you look miserable.

Extremely funny video for obvious reasons but wow Nicola Sturgeon really was a fab communicator.

Quite scathing!

I love how mysterious the first bullet point here is.

Kind of desperate to know how Andy Burnham would answer this question.

Heatwave, pivotal by-election, oil crisis…….things are very “background hum of a Booker shortlisted novel” at the moment.

Novak Djokovic went on The French Show With Good Lighting and unfortunately looked really hot

Quite gagged by this tbh

TV won't stop blasting BLAIR WARNING like he's godzilla coming to the shore

Why is every trendy new restaurant now called something like Pizza Punks/Taco Bandits/Sushi Racketeers

This argument is so charitable to Trump it should have to register as a CIO.

What are some good novels that have come out recently? It feels like it’s been ages since I read a new release that excited me, and I need some summer reading recs

A million views on X for this video where someone harasses an innocent and polite M&S employee about changing rooms. It’s a horrible, nasty society the gender criticals are trying to create.

So Peter Murrell was obviously buying a bunch of that stuff for someone else, right?

The Scottish opposition parties really need to be having more fun with the Peter Murrell story. A lot less “comparing it to organised crime” and a lot more “a bald man bought two expensive hair dryers and his wife didn’t wonder where they came from?”

Is "vet" the most Lib Dem job that isn't "Lib Dem politician"?

That was delicious.

omg the Durban-ification of the UK..........

Why is Kew Gardens always the hottest place............

He is now in Sarwar's shadow cabinet.

It would be foolish in the extreme to call for a general election before using your newly-inherited majority and fresh political capital to, at the very least, massively regulate social media (among many other things that you don't need an explicit "mandate" for).

I (perhaps wrongly) find Restore much scarier than Reform, because they’re specifically a byproduct of our fucked information ecosystem. Algorithmic. There’s something almost elemental about them, like one of those frog species that shows up when there is something wrong with the environment.

Sarah Pochin here with quite the gaffe

Things are getting wacky out there……… www.thelettersfromleo.com/p/new-jd-van...

Hadn’t heard about this guy in ages so I checked and he’s now a wine influencer on Instagram????

I would rather we fostered a narrative of national inclusion and tried to live up to it than that we fostered a narrative of national intolerance and tried to live down to it.

I still think the album is dire but I’m willing to concede that Miss Swift popped off with Opalite. There is crack in that song. She should make more ABBA music!

I can’t believe there are people out there who actually prefer Diet Coke to Coke Zero. What do you mean www.wsj.com/arts-culture...

He does write weaponised incompetence very well tbh variety.com/2026/film/gl...

They are the dog that caught the car. This nonsense is what happens when you get everything you’ve asked for, but what you’ve asked for makes no sense.

One of my favourite conspiracy theories was the “Nicola Sturgeon lies about how much she reads” conspiracy theory.

Can’t stop laughing

Sorry I know this story is serious but it’s also so so funny

I haven’t really been online today. One question: what the fuck?

I love this story it’s so CAMP

Made the best Ottolenghi recipe. (miso butter onions)

Whenever I see pictures of Nicholas Galitzine I think about this underrated line from Neighbours

This response to the story Creasy shared is despicable. Sonia Sodha should hang her head in shame.

Think about your family, extended or whatever but especially older. If any of them have been radicalised by the far-right, how many have been on Facebook? It's a cancer.

When is this going on streaming youtu.be/0TQ0WaFR83U?...

I can’t believe this is the line gender criticals have decided to take on the policing of single-sex spaces.

Wait is it against the rules of soccer to have a phat ass……..

Me at the Ed Miliband biopic when it gets to the bacon sandwich scene

To be fair to Andy B, I think the “stage-managed politician who only addresses the public in controlled environments like formal speeches” era is dead, and one major Starmer problem is his abundance of caution. But you can overcorrect.

diva why are you in the replies on Bluesky……there are doors 2 knock!
