Adam Root shortlisted for the global Earthshot Prize after he built a unique design for filters that remove microplastics from water, from his mother-in-law's dining table. A lovely bit of news. British ingenuity at the service of good. ~AA www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

(2/2) Later that morning, while out on training, the crew were diverted after a 999 call reported a kayak in difficulty south of the power station. A search was carried out and everyone was found safe. A reminder: if you see someone in trouble at sea, please call 999 and ask for the Coastguard. 💙

Farage and his m8s don’t seem to keen on attending Parliament, for which they are elected too and paid for: Reform has the worst voting attendance record in Parliament, with just 58% attendance, with No Vote recorded for 42% of their eligible votes since the general election. #DontVoteReformUK

“Privatisation was the experiment — and it’s failed. We have water companies pumping sewage into our rivers and charging us extra for the privilege.” Zack Polanski says it’s time to bring water back into public hands on #BBCPoliticsNorth.

The Lib Dems have tabled a censure motion, calling on Parliament to rebuke Sarah Pochin’s racist remarks and for Nigel Farage to withdraw the whip. Lib Dems urge the Govt & Tories to back the motion, saying "it’s about time the Conservative Party stood up for British values of decency & tolerance.”

I knew it. The Girl who walked out of the Grooming Gang enquiry appears with Nigel Farage as he tries to gain political points. The man is a despicable grifter

Two more Kent Deform UK Ltd councillors, Bill Barrett and Robert Ford, have been expelled from the party, bringing the total number suspended/expelled in just the past week to six. Deform UK, the organisation that goes to pieces so quickly that people get hit by the shrapnel.

An overview of Sarah Pochin & why she just threw herself under a bus, or actually why she just 'dead catted' herself. We already know she is a racist & part of a racist party. So why now, why this, why the manufactured arse gravy? Simple. Nathan Gill.

Every single body released by Israel was tortured: shocking expert conversation with Al Jazeera...

Christopher Harborne is by far the largest donor to Nigel Farage he has donated £13.7m since 2019. He lives in Thailand and owns QinetiQ defence company which makes Laser and AI weapons for the USA. Nigel Farage is literally owned by the US Military Industrial Complex.

Contrary to the PR hype the UK banking industry is not a paragon of free markets, efficiency, or honesty. It is scandal-ridden. Can you name a pristine bank? Govts shower subsidies and favours upon the industry in the hope that it will deliver economic renaissance. It never has.

A trillion dollars. The figure is almost as mind-boggling as the greed.

Farage: epic grifter

Farage is asked about another two of his MEPs, who made the same pro-Russia statements that Nathan Gill has now pled guilty to being bribed to make. "Opinions are opinions." Farage's defence seems to be that they arrived at those views independently and it has nowt to do with him. Hmm. 🤔 ~AA

Nigel Farage held a press conference today saying grooming gang victims have been failed When questioned about Prince Andrew he says given Andrew’s current situation, there is no need to “give him a kicking” - telling because we all know it’s the perpetrator that matters to Farage, not the victims

This is good, but it leaves out Farage’s media work: GB News (£500,000 to date) Telegraph (£48,000 per month) More here 👇 www.desmog.com/2025/07/15/w... @ledbydonkeys.org

I don't know how many times it needs saying: The EU doesn't do *anything* to punish the UK. It simply treats us as the 3rd country we demanded to become. This exceptionalist attitude is the principal barrier, not to us eventially rejoining, but to us ever genuinely being European in spirit.

My petition should be soaring past the 10,000 mark. Please help me share it as widely as possible. What's at stake is an abnormal proliferation of tax havens and feudal enclaves petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

There's pressure on the BBC to dump Louis Theroux for platforming Bob Vylan's criticism of Israel. The US detained a British journalist who criticised Israel. The Aus National Press Club cancelled US journo, Chris Hedges, who criticises Israel. Support media willing to criticise Israel.

Reform MP branded a ‘disgrace’ over comments about black people in ads

Of course she has. The small matter of owing £122 million to UK taxpayers for her disgusting profiteering in a global pandemic means nothing to Michelle Mone. NHS staff died in my hospital from the Covid they caught there - her dodgy PPE racket was vile.

Private rent in UK now swallows 44% of the average wage. Monthly cost jumps to record £1,385 outside London, £2,736 in the capital. Lack of social and affordable housing, no rent controls, as govts appease corporations and the rich. Profiteering creating poverty/despair, stifling economic growth.

As we approach Fox Hunting Season, all you Reform UK animal rights supporters must be pleased to know how much your leader Nigel Farage loves fox hunting. He enjoys it so much in fact that he thinks the ban is an “abomination”. He would legalise fox hunting.

Israeli drones launched explosive devices over the town of Abasan Al-Jadida, located east of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.

Superb piece by @jamesbloodworth.bsky.social in this month's @bylinetimes.bsky.social mag: "Britain's Media Has Let Nigel Farage Reshape Political Journalism - Why?" This article alone was worth my annual sub to one of the very few news outlets still doing proper journalism

Local sources reported that early this morning, Israeli occupation forces launched a raid on the Al-Jalazon refugee camp, north of Ramallah, during which they abducted 13-year-old Mohammad Ahmed Kharroub.

This is chilling. And it doesn't exist anymore except on the Internet.

the way Trump and his administration keep going on livestreams and tv to laugh about this, I can’t really compare it to anything political that comes to mind, only thing that comes to mind rn is a serial killer who writes letter taunting family of their victim.

. Populists are popular and win elections. But are hopeless at the more complicated task of running a country. Unfortunately, as is usually the case with Fascism, it has its power base in the least well educated. They can't and won't read articles like this. . www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...

“Even after having released almost 2,000 people last week, the Israeli military is still holding about 9,000 Palestinians,” says Israeli American human rights lawyer Sari Bashi. “Only about a thousand of them have actually been convicted of any crime."

Tesco said it now expected full-year 2025/26 adjusted operating profit of between 2.9 billion pounds and 3.1 billion pounds, up from previous guidance of between 2.7 billion pounds and 3 billion pounds and versus 3.13 billion pounds made in 2024/25

Companies that donated to Labour awarded £138m in contracts. Corporations/Rich don't donate, they bribe. Buy access to policymakers, favourable laws, lax regulation, govt contracts. Low/Middle earners cannot compete. Political donations must be criminalized. No second jobs for MPs.

We must make racism disgraceful again. This kind of shameless ugly inadequacy from Pochin should be career-ending, not career-enhancing. Honestly… the Little England nastiness is repulsive.
