I do hope UKG will find the courage to back Europe fully. The language is changing. The red lines are not. Given the rejection of our institutions, can we really bring the UK into our trusted partnership, into our next generation supply chains? 3

People sometimes praise Farage for taking lots of questions from the press. That seems irrelevant when he regularly responds to reasonable questions in insulting and Trump-like terms, often attacking individual journalists and their outlets. Collectively, the lobby shouldn’t stand for it.

Stephen Colbert taped a “Late Show” interview with James Talarico, a candidate in the Democratic Senate primary in Texas. But CBS lawyers intervened before the interview could air on TV. https://cnn.it/40cMltV

This is crazy. The government — or fear of the government — is editing a CBS comedy show. Via @brianstelter.bsky.social "Yesterday, Stephen Colbert taped a 'Late Show' interview with James Talarico, a candidate in the Democratic Senate primary in Texas, but then CBS lawyers intervened."

The only question worth asking at these incredibly flash Reform press conferences that take place every week now, is who is paying for all of this and what do they want in return bsky.app/profile/pete...

“Reform’s plan to scrap net zero won’t take a penny off your energy bills. it’ll just hand your wallet over to the gas giants and markets controlled by dictators like Putin” MAGA, Putin, Orbán, Bannon, Farage, Reform. All the v worst people colluding to screw us over. www.desmog.com/2026/02/13/r...

Not sure why Reform announcing they’ll scrap the Equality Act 2010 hasn’t provoked widespread alarm. They want to torch our human rights framework AND repeal our right to protection from discrimination. A smile and a shrug on BBC News. What the hell? FFS, media. Tell people what this really means.

The ecological crisis is unprecedented in scale and scope, so no, countries have not had to do this before, but you’d have to be wilfully blind to think they don’t have to do it now. You’d also have to be kidding or paid to say that harnessing wind and sun is more primitive than burning fossil fuels

LEFT: Someone who appears in the Epstein files over a million times. Epstein called him his "best friend." RIGHT: Someone never mentioned in the Epstein files—even once. And she never met him. So guess which one is being hauled before our corrupt, cover-upping Congress to testify about Epstein.

So a Dutch company is calling out the secret police operating in America. Remember the Dutch are the ones that hid Anne Frank’s family. They read the room and stepped up with Noem threatened to jail Americans. I lived in The Hague for over a year so it does not surprise me there are good people

BREAKING: Data from the Office for National Statistics says inflation dropped to 3% in the year to January

The constant condescension about ai is another aspect of it that makes me hate it more. The assumption is you can only be against it because you don't understand it like I do. No man. I don't like voluntarily making every human enterprise dependent on a tech run by a tiny group of financial maniacs

BREAKING: Hillary Clinton says that the Trump Administration is covering up the Epstein Files. “There’s something about this administration’s attitude towards this, which I think really leads us to conclude that they have something to hide.”

I'm 35, work in tech, and only yesterday realised I've been reading "embed" as one syllable in my head. Not em-bed. Just… emmbed. I cannot be trusted.

Seen on that other site...😆 What's really in the Epstein files!

So, what to do. Firstly, look at reliable sources of information - the UKHSA is excellent. And you can also read Independent SAGE's explainer on vaccines bsky.app/profile/shee...

An extraordinary new column in the Daily Telegraph (no, that's not a typo!) by Ambrose Evans Pritchard. Yes, it includes two charts by Carbon Brief, sure. But stay for the concluding few paragraphs about the electoral suicide of climate denial... www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

MAGA women are weird. How come they all wear that Chanelesque "pretend pockets button flap at the hip" 1960s mini dress, and carry a heavily logo covered, ugly brown LV bag, that belongs in the 1980s? They wear Nana beige court shoes with everything too. It's so odd.

New data shows #Brexit has lowered UK GDP by 6-8% in 10 years. Investment down 18%, employment down 4%. It's even worse than economists had predicted pre-referendum, because they thought there would be a bounce-back long term. "Economists were roughly right on the magnitude of the impact, but...

Surely *someone* asked him about Bannon, Trump, Brexit & the Epstein files? Bueller?

The main argument against rejoining the EU is that it would "embolden Farage". Bullshit. It would expose Farage. It would force him to oppose the majority of voters, remind them that his last "Great Crusader" left us poor and powerless, and force him to admit he wants us to remain that way.

📌 ICYMI — Bannon, Epstein, Farage and Johnson and the Plot to ‘Topple’ Theresa May The far-right former Trump adviser told Jeffrey Epstein that "we are overthrowing May right now"… https://bylinetimes.com/2026/02/16/bannon-epstein-farage-and-johnson-and-the-plot-to-topple-theresa-may/

I like the government pivot to reminding voters that Farage is an avowed enemy of NATO & Europe & an ardent admirer of Vladimir Putin, who routinely orders the murders of critics & opponents. It is politically effective & morally essential.

Bring it on, and I am no spring chicken either. Brexit = total waste of time and money.

Labour have broken their promise of 'Growth' in order to keep their Brexit is Brexit promise. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Denmark should invade the USA. The security implications for Greenland would be roughly the same and the USA would finally have some sensible policies on firearms, health, workers rights, public transport and so on. It would be win-win really.

Blimey. Looks like Matt Goodwin, who seems to think the Handmaid's Tale is an instruction manual, is in the pay of an Orban think tank, funded by Russian oil money.

Staggering that 24% of voters in this advanced country continue to believe in a bunch of entitled bigots with unworkable policies, whose very ideas put us in the abject chaos we are in. Truly God awful idiots, and I make no apology for saying that.

joyce is going after elon again

Breaking: Hillary Clinton has accused the Trump admin of a "cover-up" over its handling of the Epstein files. "Get the files out. They are slow-walking it." On her upcoming deposition before the Oversight Committee: "We have nothing to hide … We think sunlight is the best disinfectant."

The Project 2025 author is using millions of dollars in USAID money for his own security detail. It is estimated that 762,000 people have *already died* as a result of Elon Musk and Russell Vought’s obscene murder of USAID, including more than 500,000 children. Vought is a mass murderer.

It's like ICE is completely ignoring every lesson that moderately competent police forces are forced to learn, like "don't do high speed chases in densely populated areas with low risk targets"

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today. We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Do you agree Brexit is a curse? Yes 👍 #ExitBrexit

Brexit britain is heading for negative immigration. Universities, builders and health trusts are feeling the squeeze, as thinktank says effect of zero net migration could be similar to Brexit. Brexit is literally squeezing the life blood out of the country.

I certainly wouldn't not . I broke up with my partner on the 24th June 2016 when he couldn't hide his joy that #Brexit won!

I also want to live my life as if Brexit never happened. In many ways, I do. Just ignore the bad thing, fuck it. Fuck Brexit. But… it happened. Fuck Brexit.

Those who want to rejoin the EU are now 26% ahead of those who want to keep Brexit. 💥💥💥 That includes: 86% of 18-25 year olds! 🇪🇺 60% of retired peole! 🇪🇺 The British public knows what it wants. So why won't Starmer's Labour give it to them ???

Have you ever once seen the New York Times quote Trump like this?

Britain has gone from the best road and railway builders in the world, to the biggest embarrassment in road and railway projects in less than 100 years.

Reform voters are the most likely to support a ban on social media for under-16s – a chance for Labour to divide the libertarian Farage from his interventionist base.

The messages between the far-right former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and the late convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein reveal how Bannon worked with Boris Johnson and Farage to “overthrow” Theresa May at the height of the 2018 Brexit crisis in the UK bylinetimes.com/2026/02/16/b...
