Calling a by-election over the sovereign right of every MP to take secret gifts from a convicted criminal. What a time to be alive.

Despite economic growth UK living standards fell in 2026. Growth driven by increases in spending on housing, water, gas, electricity, all fleecing people. Stealth tax rises, frozen tax thresholds deplete disposable income. No trickle down. Households' saving ratio down. Must redistribute.

Never fight a war on two fronts. Don’t get emotionally attached to a George R R Martin character.

We don’t deserve to get through on the back of three poor performances.

Massive let off for Hendry.

Waiting for the system justifiers on this platform to claim that Geoffrey Robertson KC "doesn't understand the law". That's what all of us who've made these points have been told. Maybe not understanding how this could possibly be right is a sign of our humanity. www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

Patterson is just awful. Wrong ball every time.

It's strange to me that Matt Goodwin seems to be on the BBC more than Hannah Spencer when he lost an election to her

M&S Food is out of scones. That's not just a mare. That's a Weston-super-Mare

The Fire Brigades Union has made a statement on the proposed EHRC Code of Practice on Services. Our message is clear. Equality matters, solidarity is essential, and we will continue to fight for both.

A Brexit bonus*? * not for you, silly!

A Labour minister unable to condemn Reform's plan for the mass deportations of our neighbours. Cowardly and disgraceful. Labour are incapable of standing up to Reform's divisive nonsense. Only the Green Party have the courage to do this.

Riding a motorcycle in full kit in 30C+ temperatures has some downsides.

"I'd be remiss if I didn't also point out, as an American trans person, that Labour's bathroom policy is significantly more bigoted, invasive, and restrictive towards trans people than anything that any American Republican red state has managed to implement."

Utterly the wrong call. Weak. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

“I don’t really understand why the sudden focus on Europe” Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy tells BBC Laura Kuenssberg

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

"A recent Unrwa dispatch said 111 Palestinians, including at least 18 children and seven women, were killed by Israeli forces in Gaza in April alone, bringing the total number of Palestinian deaths since the war began to 72,619."

I am hosting Have I Got News For You tonight! Ian‘s guest is Bella Hull and Paul‘s guest is Karl Turner MP. There’s something for everyone, by which I mean, everyone who is interested in the Labour Party or football. 9pm on BBC One.

The fact that Keir Starmer has drafted Morgan McSweeney back in to save him has to be funniest part of all of this. Truly committed to never learning a single lesson you have to give it to him

People who think private efficient, public inefficient, need to get out more. Change electricity supplier: shambles. Change annual milage on insurance, they screw up marital status. Try to buy a car: get messed around and lied to. Organise a will: repeated errors in spellings of names. 1/

What happened was, Musk bought X & started pushing it in a nazi direction. This prompted a semi-mass exodus (including me). But the exodus basically petered out. To my dismay -- & to their eternal discredit -- lots & lots of prominent people, journos, institutions, experts, brands, etc. stayed.

All the best to Katie Archibald in her new career. Not the headline I expected from the picture! www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cyclin...

Had convos w/ multiple people in the past 4 days who DID NOT KNOW that 1. AI doesn't "think" or know anything; it's a probability machine 2. It was created using massive amounts of work stolen from actual people including me 3. The environmental costs are astronomical Spread the word, every time!

This bloody infuriates me. Just seen a dude, in a wheelchair, having to go into the road to navigate around this plonker’s car. #Iwantmypavementback #banpavementparking

Asked what could realistically be done, @edplowden.bsky.social said: “It would be to introduce probably weight-based parking charges in the UK. We can’t do that to raise revenue, but we can do that because they are more dangerous.” www.bristol247.com/news-and-fea...

We’re just normal men

Confident. But not complacent. Every vote counts - let's replace Labour. www.standard.co.uk/news/politic...

Pavement parking is outrightly dangerous to wheelchair users, visually impaired people and parents walking their children to school. Write to your MP today, telling them to vote on a crucial Government amendment to reclaim pavements for pedestrians. @livingstreets.bsky.social‬

Start the fire. Walk away. Tell the world they’re on their own.

Not everything is subject to enshittification though.

“You’ll need to order from the kiosk”. Actually, I don’t, and I didn’t.

What is this abomination from BBC Sport?! www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

can this be a solution

Local people have been failed by Royal Mail for too long. Whilst there is no doubt that posties and staff are trying their hardest, Royal Mail must be held to account for the constant local postal issues. I have written to Ofcom calling for action to be taken against the company

Or because it’s trained to mimic a perpetually anxious society.

I have used the missiles that were in the arsenal and which you were probably saving for Russia Forgive me they were powerful so shiny and so deadly

You are trapped in the last TV show you watched. Where are you?
