One of these men is a Prince. It’s not Andrew… New! Have you tried The Trawl podcast? Link below 👇

£450 a flag spent by Reform councils! No wonder they’ve had to put up council tax. Just one of the facts I learned in this week’s @thetrawl.bsky.social (also - I’m backing @jemmaforte.bsky.social and @marina-purkiss.bsky.social for the new presenters of Strictly). open.spotify.com/episode/7whc...

Nobody had even heard of Katie Lam outside of Westminster until about two weeks ago. Literally all it takes to be considered "brilliant" and a "rising star" on the right of British politics now is just a willingness to say something slightly more racist than all of your competitors

I’m a huge fan of Trawl Pod, and have just listened to The Trawl Meets Zack Polanski. At last we have a relatable voice on the left, and he’s taking no sh/t! Suddenly the future holds a ray of hope. @thetrawl.bsky.social @marina-purkiss.bsky.social @jemmaforte.bsky.social @zackpolanski.bsky.social

One of my favourite Trawls - a right old mix with lots of laughs and some chat about ‘Andy’ that doesn’t hold back. Link below 👇

Times have definitely changed. Wild that this was his nick name. 🤢 And based on such a rank story too Then again, I also wrote to Jimmy Saville and asked if I could turn round and change into Wonder Woman.

Trump said his $250,000,000 gold  ballroom wouldn’t touch the White House. Then came the bulldozers. While ordinary Americans struggle to buy groceries he installs chandeliers cos nothing says ‘man of the people’ like prioritising somewhere to entertain billionaires. Gold-plated delusion

1970's: CEOs earn 20 x more than average worker 2025: CEOs earn 122 x more than average worker The richest 1% own 50% of entire country's wealth. Obscene inequality has been normalised.

Honestly, this is the best Trawl Meets yet. ❤️ Anyone who wants to actually hear @zackpolanski.bsky.social without him being interrupted because "he's saying the quiet words out louds", then THIS is the podcast for you. There's so much packed into this episode. PS: join.greenparty.org.uk 💚

Ah, The Trawl — ever the symphony of satire in a world drowning in deceit. I look forward, with sharpened wit and eager ear, to your next orchestration of truth and irony. #TheTrawl #VforVendetta

NEW : CONFLATION NATION The Manchester synagogue attack, the mosque attack, Labour’s crackdown on protest, the flotillas and farewell to Hyacinth Bouquet. It’s all in the latest Trawl. Link below 👇

NEW - In the latest Trawl, Trump’s waging war on …Portland?! But karma is catching up on Bolsonaro and Sarkozy. A very Friday feeling ep! Link below 👇

Richard Tice during an interview "Keir Starmer literally used the words: take up arms and go for the enemy" What a lemon Firstly (& most importantly) he DID NOT say that. Secondly you can’t wang on about language you don’t like AND parade Lucy Connolly like a mascot. Make your mind up.

Ryder Cup chaos, Labour conference highs and lows and why Starmer is getting hammered for something he didn’t actually say… It’s all in the latest jam-packed Trawl Link below 👇

Wrote a piece inspired by Obama saying that 80% of the world’s problems are caused by old men hanging on. He’s got a point. The world’s rogues gallery is not doing the planet any good. jemmaforte.substack.com/p/bloody-awf...

I don’t remember there ever being as many constant ruddy polls about who would win an election so long before an election is even vaguely due? Who is commissioning all the endless polls?

Why I think Farage would have less chance of getting in if Burnham was PM.

I agree with Charlie Kirk. We must see all the Epstein files no matter how many elites get exposed

A few ppl have been asking me and @marina-purkiss.bsky.social if we’ve taken a break because we’re not on Global Player. The Trawl is no longer with Global so last ep posted there was in August. So you have a load of eps to binge on Apple, Spotify or other platforms 🥳 Hope you’ll find us x

So ‘Your Party’ isn’t actually going to be anyone’s party… that all went well then…

Quiet news week 😬 A packed Trawl. Out now! 🎧 podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

I remember when it was universally acknowledged that Tommy Robinson was a racist thug. Now he’s being encouraged by The Telegraph. Musk is inciting violence and amplifying him. Reform are saying they’d ’take back the judiciary’ and god knows what else. What’s happening to Britain?

There's no excuse of ignorance any more. Every single person on that fascist march knew who Tommy Robinson was and every single one of them knew why they were there. This isn't Brexit. People weren't conned. They willingly went out to join in, led by a five times jailed thug. Stop making excuses.

I think Musk's comments to a rally of 100k people are the highest profile advocacy of political violence in the UK since the end of the Northern Ireland conflict. Does anybody have a counter-example? "Whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you. You either fight back or you die."

A free read by me on why the Gary win followed by the brutal murder of Charlie Kirk was a lot to digest in one evening. jemmaforte.substack.com/p/two-screen...

Jemma Forte explains that flags are good but we need to be aware of the rise in flags and a rise in racism; which is not good Well said @jemmaforte.bsky.social

Dame Andrea Jenkyns sashays onto the stage in a sequin catsuit and belts out ‘Insomniac’. Cos nothing says ‘serious politics’ like peacocking through a power ballad. To be fair her sequins are brighter than the policy agenda But Jane Macdonald can rest easy

Farage got called a 'Putin-loving free-speech imposter' in Congress Why can't Labour do this instead of getting all weird about flags while pretending their houses are shrines to the Jubilee? Instead they fan Farage's flames, turn up the dial on racism & embolden his base while repulsing their own.

Ffs. Took a video of tonight's sunset for my mum, but thanks to @thetrawl.bsky.social soundtrack, I've mistakenly made some hellish tourist information film for fecking Reform. I'm blaming @jemmaforte.bsky.social for this

Surely ‘Presenter of the Year’ belongs to @GaryLineker at this year's National Television Awards? He’s hosted his last MOTD Lovely followers, you know what to do: 👉 Vote here: nationaltvawards.com/vote 🗓️ Deadline: 12th September

Imagine being so ‘patriotic’ you spend your Saturday vandalising roundabouts like Temu Banksy. NHS underfunded, schools crumbling, but don’t worry — we’ve got freshly glossed patriotism between Tesco and the A46.

The Gavin Newsom soap opera is fascinating. Fascinating and potentially vital, if his tactics work. Trump’s a narcissistic bully whose worst nightmare is being laughed at. Seeing his rhetoric reduced to the rubbish it is by mimicking it is wonderful. What happens next? Who knows

Anyone else feel conflicted about the Online Safety Act? Protecting kids is vital. IMO kids being able to see stuff their minds aren’t ready for is seriously damaging. But the bill also harvests data. No getting away from it. How do we trust that’s not exploited?

The Emperor’s New Ballroom : why have so many rulers got such bad taste and what does it mean? Trump, Berlusconi, Marie Antoinette…. Gilded nonsense through the Ages. jemmaforte.substack.com/p/tacky-tyra...

If you stop blaming immigrants you will start blaming billionaires. And they can't be having that.
