🚨BREAKING: Parliament is going to debate the petition Calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy on 9 February. This is why it’s so important👇 youtu.be/Cnl8MNhwEY0?...

⚠️Farage in 2022: "It is a complete insult to voters for MPs to have the arrogance to think that it's them they voted for. You, the voters are just useful to them once every few years." ❓Jenrick in 2026: "I don't intend to call a by-election. I believe my constituents knew that I stood up for them."

Hat jemand eine Idee was man da tun könnte? Meine Mutter, 84, alleine lebend, hat gestern um 21.00 Uhr einen Anruf, von einem angeblichen Polizisten bekommen. Er wusste Vor und Nachnamen und wie ihr Haus aussieht. Er kannte sogar Nachbarn. Es ging da um Betrug.

We have to be clear about what the Trump Administration is doing: They are taking basic American virtues and freedoms — the ability to speak truth to power and freely — and turning them into crimes. We must see through this.

The best time for the government to quit X was August 2024, when its owner fuelled far right riots, the second best time is now.

Right now its time to lobby the BBC to finally start using this platform. @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Ive tagged you because you're the only BBC representation here. Why does the BBC insist on using a porn site, nobody there gives a damn about news. When will you finally come here?

AN ARREST VIDEO EVERY DAY (until the Palestine Action ban is lifted) DAY 8 - A young woman is arrested outside the Labour Party conference on Sept 28th for peacefully holding a sign with the words “I oppose genocide - I support Palestine Action” on it. www.defendourjuries.net

The obvious implication is that this justifies killing her. These people are simply evil.

The killing of an American citizen by masked immigration enforcement agents is almost enough to make you forget Epstein or Venezuela or the fact that we just passed the anniversary of January 6. But you know, it's possible to remember all of it at once

Just vile. “Anyone who has posted a picture of themselves on the internet, regardless of age or gender, is one message to Grok away from being shown wearing a swastika bikini and performing a fascist salute.” It could be you…or me. Is this the “culture” we should permit as a country?

We’re going to do this for years aren’t we? Make tentative suggestions about heading back into the EU because Brexit is an isolating, costly moronathon that the country regrets. But Tories and Reform will keep howling ‘Betrayal!’, making progress and prosperity impossible. (iPaper)

Because international media largely seems to struggle to choose the correct wording to describe what’s happening: the US, under the self describes „peace president“, attacked another country and kidnapped its president. That is factual, no matter how bad or illegitimate Maduro‘s rule is (very bad).

Das neue Jahr beginnt wie das alte geendet hat: mit einem weiteren eklatanten Bruch des Völkerrechts. Ob Trump, Putin oder Netanjahu: Es sind die Feinde einer internationalen Friedensordnung, die die Welt in Flammen setzen. #Venezuela #Gaza #Ukraine

Es wäre schön, wenn Hamburg und Bewohner*innen bis Montag mit Schneeräumen und Streuen anfangen würden. Als blinder Mensch nicht fühlen zu können, ob man sich gerade auf dem Gehweg, der Grünfläche oder der Straße befindet, macht die eigenständige Orientierung teils unmöglich.

Robert MacCulloch, a Church of Scotland minister, calls it a grave wrong when people raised to wealth use it to press the poor down instead of help them — and when those who speak up are scolded. The question remains: are we protecting the vulnerable? #seekjustice #careforthepoor #walkwithJesus

God honestly. Doesn’t this just sum up Reform. And their plastic patriotism. Can’t even give a straight answer or follow the rules on their unbelievably naff merch. So on brand. Oh well. You sell or wear one of these, you’ve told us all we need to know about you. (iPaper)
