FUCKETY BYE CUNT

Gorton and Denton results. labour comes third. Ouch. Greens: 14,980 Reform: 10,578 Labour: 9,364

obviously today is a huge embarrassment for Matt Goodwin and for Reform, which is something that we absolutely ought to celebrate, but we must also remember it's a huge embarrassment for Morgan McSweeney and Maurice Glasman and all the Blue Labour weirdos, and that's important to celebrate too :)

@zackpolanski.bsky.social : "Reform are finding their anti migrant & divisive rhetoric is not working anymore. I think people are sick of it and want solutions.. Farage doesn't have any of those solutions because he pretends to be a man of the people but he's a man of the wealthy people.."🎯

I've just read the notes for a disciplinary hearing where the employee has referred to me as the 'Princess of darkness' and I have not stopped smiling and laughing since haha you old flatterer you...

Gutted to read that Oliver 'Power' Grant has passed, I'm going to see the Clan next month - Rest in peace Power. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

She's done it again - this is one for the purists, its so old school witchy Disney vibes its got me completely entranced and excited for the album - oopsy daisy yoo hoo indeed Lizzy. open.spotify.com/track/7IM4xK...

Being a Canadian Liberal right now must be like being in the Labour Party c1998, but with the added bonus that the French keep vaguely threatening to invade Britain and William Hague, due to ideological ties to Jacques Chirac, can’t quite articulate if this is a bad thing or not.

BREAKING Former ICE agent: On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.

The BBC should put out all three of John's documentaries and make them available on the world service. I challenge anyone not to be sympathetic and understanding after watching them. Especially the kid in the third one. Heart breaking stuff.

First Andy now Mandy - ych y fi about bloody time

Good

Mandelson follows the former prince Andrew into the Epstein-linked arrest book.

Good

NEW How Palantir captured the Ministry of Defence How a close read of public domain documents show how MoD was commercially colonised by Palantir By me, at FT www.ft.com/content/5207...

These people are poison. They will unleash racist thugs on the streets of this country and call it security. They will subjugate us to the US and call it patriotism. They must be stopped. There is no more important task in politics.

I Swear should have won best British film not Hamnet it was triumphant thats a very poor decision by Bafta. #baftas

Watching the Rehearsal- man this is messed up but I can't stop watching.

This monster is 30 years old today dude what?

Haha

Lot of good UK economic news recently - retail sales strong, tax receipts healthy, gilt yields and inflation down. Maybe - still a big maybe - productivity showing signs of life. That said, the jobs market still feels tough - perhaps the price of that better productivity. 1/3

So it turns out Matt Goodwin's Reform campaign manager was a holocaust-denying Nazi who said he would "never touch a Jewish woman.” When do we start seeing all the coverage of the antisemitism crisis in Reform UK? www.jewishnews.co.uk/reform-uk-su...

holy shit

Deftones time

Marco Rubio didn't mention Russia or the Ukraine war in his speech on European security. Not once in his prepared remarks. But he did push a racial/religious supremacist version of Western civilization and chastise them for immigration. Basically the same speech as Hegseth, less boorishly phrased.

🔴 SCOOP: Wife of Starmer’s comms chief had direct knowledge of Labour Together’s investigation into journalists, documents seen by D4S show Revelation heaps more pressure on minister Josh Simons to explain why he paid a PR firm to dig dirt on reporters democracyforsale.substack.com/p/starmer-al...

Absolutely tremendous from President Zelensky- pay attention Europe YouTube share.google/ZMOUGENu0KP6...

Antonia Romeo is the wrong choice for Cabinet secretary. A government which was serious about improving its performance would not select her. iandunt.substack.com/p/how-one-hi...

GB finally win a medal at the winter olympics and it's gold for Matt Weston in skeleton. First man to win a gold for GB since Christopher Dean 42 years ago.

Haha ive been saying this about billionaire bat boy for years youtu.be/4Y5YLQ2CWbw?...

Actual sunshine in Cardiff at last quick take a photo before it goes away

@iandunt.bsky.social podcast mic is a bit snap crackle pop this end sounds like recording on vinyl. Try using an XLR lead rather than USB lead you can also get pop filters that help. I recently did a podcast on mental health with Network Rail and they swapped to XLR. The content as per was spot on.

Outstanding. A triumph for liberty and against unrestrained state power. The government should be ashamed of having to be forced into this position. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

If you need inspiration, just consider that your purchases on Amazon help fund the $40 million Trump bribe that was the Melania documentary.

IMPORTANT The court has not yet formally ordered the quashing of the provision, and so it still remains in force pending an Order - see highlighted text. So provision remains in force. Suspect government may seek urgent appeal before Order made.

Love this show.

Greys are gone, now if only it would leave the sky!

Like this Lisa Nandy line from her interview with @theguardian.com.

This is really encouraging. It's not too late to stop this.

Day off from work to focus on masters study on organisational ethics. Its so grey outside so I've got my 'hapus' aromatherapy candle lit, it smells incredible and goes well with my lemon grass and ginger tea. Heaven knows hapus is in short supply lately. Enjoying a little bit of calm.

I laughed so hard at this

And the sheer stupidity of leaving the EU in the first place still has the power to shock me. I mean, this has been bloody obvious for, like, forever!

It is so embarrassing that it has taken nearly a decade for a British minister to say this, a statement of the absolute bloody obvious

Man this is one twisted dark masterpiece

Reading the reviews of Wuthering Heights feeling vindication for Emily Bronte- If you are going to make a movie about a literary classic at least attempt to honour the storyline and message of the original. The minute I saw the casting I knew this was doomed. I do like the soundtrack though.

No-one seems to have noticed, but many of the core developments in the Mandelson/Epstein story these last few days have been broken on this website. @pickardje.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social are both posting each breaking development on BlueSky, not X.

Chris Mason smirking loving all the Westminster fallout with all the political acumen of a gossiping old biddy over the neighbouring hedge. I cannot stand the creep.

Munich, of course, famously a great place for British PMs to get an easy win that saves their career.

Starmer will never be great at this, and will have to go sooner or later, but he has a golden opportunity to stop kicking Labour MPs, members and voters in the head
