Reform UK wants to shut this down. If it did so, it would throw a million people out of work. Why? because it is beholden to the fossil fuel industry. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The Henry Nowak murder is beyond tragic 💔 That poor lad. Unbearable for the family. The policing was just dire. He was so obviously in trouble. Awful awful awful.

Well, this is exciting. thetrawl.tix.to/tickets

Just ruptured a lung on the way to work listening to @thetrawl.bsky.social covering the Unite The Kingdom protests Marina: “Did you see the 3 women who went on stage in burkas then whipped them off?” Jemma: “So like a racist Bucks Fizz?” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 @jemmaforte.bsky.social @marina-purkiss.bsky.social

Anyone else feel hugely uneasy about this whole by election situation? For me, the main imperative is not letting mini Trump win and this feels like the left eating itself.

Well today is depressing. Yet again the billionaire media barons and billionaire donors have persuaded people to vote against their own interests.

Place your bets - how many times do you think Charles and Camilla have muttered the words 'Dreadful man' to each other this week?

The King’s done us proud, demonstrating what wit, grace & knowledgeability looks like. But what will it achieve? Today Trump feels puffed up. Next wk he'll forget. He acts on whims, threatens civilisations in middle of the night, on his phone. If he wants to threaten UK in a few days time, he will

Anyone know whether today is a ‘ceasefire’ day or a ‘destroy your civilisation’ day yet?

It’s hellish. Waking up every day witnessing hell. While fully understanding we’re ‘just’ witnessing it. Unbearable that millions of people are suffering it, losing their loved ones, experiencing trauma, pain, seeing their homes and lives obliterated. 2026 & evil men still rule the world.

Imagine it was the other way around? Imagine Iran had attacked the US or Israel out of nowhere then broken an agreed ceasefire. The world allowed Gaza and now more murder and expansionism into Lebanon. 1.2 MILLION displaced. Where’s the condemnation? The sanctions? The outrage? The disgust?

Did you go to bed anxious then wake up relieved as hell? Join The Trawl podcast madness where we all despair together! Link below 👇

Remember when the US president threatened to start a nuclear war and the UK Prime Minister took time out of his day to tweet about Kanye West?

Hate’s a strong word. Today, it’s not strong enough. How dare he terrify millions of people like this?

Even the AfD are scaling back visits stateside. Meloni - once a Trump loyalist - has distanced herself France, Spain are hard ‘what are you doings?’ We’re sending the King? Awful. Just condones the criminal, useless, ill thought out war

Make some noise. Share this post. 🚨 The Israeli government has granted itself another means to dehumanise, suppress, and kill Palestinians. Israel is violating international law.

Something tells me George must have told Hegseth & Trump some home truths about their insane war and Trump’s declared war crime plans announced in public yesterday . Hegseth fires the most senior ranking army officer, General Randy George. I’d’ve thought that would be a relief to George

The video from the Knesset is sickening. @jemmaforte.bsky.social 's raw emotion here says more than I ever could.

Reviews like this mean so much! Today’s Trawl podcast was certainly cathartic to record. I’ve put the link below 👇

What has to happen before the world hits a tipping point? Epstein files? Hospitals bombed in Gaza? War crimes in Lebanon? Illegal Iran war? Children suffering in ways we shouldn’t be able to imagine? Ben Gvir celebrating being able to hang people? Wish I was going mad & this wasn’t reality.

Theroux’s Manosphere Doc. There’s been so much incredible reaction - it’s all in the latest Trawl. Some of it’s thoughtful and profound. And some of it just rips the piss out of the wet wipes it features. Join us! Link below 👇

Energy Sec Ed Miliband will meet consumer groups & charities today to discuss support available for heating oil users. For households on gas & electricity, bills are coming down from 1 April: under a new legal instruction, energy firms will be forced to ensure all those on domestic tariffs benefit.

Guess the Board of Peace got bored of peace.

CAN THEY JUST RELEASE THE F’ING FILES before he destroys the whole world 🤯🤯🤯

Turns out Reform aren't the shoo-in Question Time and The Mail like to pretend they are. Voters can think for themselves and they just did. And Labour? Now you know what happens when you pander to 'Trump lite'. The people say no. Complacency is not a strategy. Politics just got interesting.

Catching up on @thetrawl.bsky.social and nearly ruptured a lung when @jemmaforte.bsky.social said Mandelson was “wandering about in a dressing gown with his ball-bag hanging out”—I cackled so loud onlookers stared like I was either mid-MDNA climax or undergoing a exorcism. Outstanding broadcasting!

A good laugh , I am still giggling.

Another cracking episode from @thetrawl.bsky.social by @marina-purkiss.bsky.social @jemmaforte.bsky.social It talks about Greenland being leaned on by Trump for his mates’ benefit. The quoted Guardian article pretty much confirms it, along with a new, not-so-well-known donor.

Another murder by ICE thugs 💔 bringmethenews.com/minnesota-ne...

The sight of Trump’s son in law declaring his ‘vision’ for Rafah and Gaza with zero input from any Palestinians turns my stomach.

The news is mad. Dystopian. Surreal. The US President is unhinged & dangerous. Putin’s being left to his own devices. A Dane said ‘fuvk off’ in Parliament & it felt appropriate Macron’s being tough…in aviators. Netanyahu and Putin have been invited onto a board of peace. Ditto Blair Help

Starmer maybe rightly doesn’t take bait each time but he needs an outrider - a semi-licensed “off message” attack dog - to make Haw-Haw Farage pay for sucking up to the guy who denigrates British war dead.

457 UK armed forces personnel died in Afghanistan during the 20-year deployment. This is a fucking hideous thing to say. Even by his non-existent standards.

"And we now have María on the line who would like to swap a Nobel Peace Prize for the presidency of Venezuela..."

Think England is probably safe from a Trump invasion

Reform is just Tory leftovers at this point

Robert Jenrick says the Tories "broke Britain," so he's joined a party that includes: Nadhim Zahawi, Nadine Dorries, Jonathan Gullis, Ben Bradley, Danny Kruger, Jake Berry, Marco Longhi, Aiden Burley, Anne Marie Morris, Lee Anderson and Andrea Jenkyns.

Thankyou @marina-purkiss.bsky.social @jemmaforte.bsky.social for This. Felt cathartic. You are amazing @thetrawl.bsky.social

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” George Orwell, 1984 Make no mistake, the heinous gaslighting we’re witnessing following Renee Good’s murder, it’s purposeful. Resistance begins with refusing to deny what you see RIP 🩶
