The glee with which the transphobic lobby is celebrating this says everything. Nasty, spiteful, and hateful. Shame on anyone bullying this most bullied of communities. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The perfect timeline cleanser 💙

Farage didn’t turn up to 41 of 42 EU fishery committee meetings He won’t hold constituency surgeries He dodges high profile TV interviews He didn’t declare a £5mn gift He lied about buying a house, probably to avoid stamp duty. If he’s your answer, you’re asking a fucking stupid question.

Oh what a tangled web they weave... Farage now admits he bought the Clacton house, having told everyone last year that his partner Laure Ferrari bought the house.

FAO the UK Labour government

Diane Abbott drank a tinnie on the Underground and was hounded by the media for weeks. Nigel Farage, Richard Tice, endless free passes. What do those free passes cost, I wonder?

this is an absolutely extraordinary scoop by Guardian: Nigel Farage was given £5m by the crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne shortly before announcing he would stand in the 2024 British general election, the Guardian can reveal www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Kimberlé Crenshaw 🖤 “One of the keys of fascism is control of the nation’s narrative,” she says. “That, alongside creating a group of people that are legitimate targets of exclusion – an us and them – allows for the autocrat to be seen as the embodiment of the essential nation. tinyurl.com/ycx6wcrp

Yet another reason to #boycottAmazon

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

So despite the endless adverts about term-time-only working, funding for training and so on, Amazon still hate working people. #BoycottAmazon

America, 2026.

Been meaning to report that the shop which was Johnny (he was in the army, you know) Mercer's office until we elected a good MP is now providing a much more valuable service to the community. It's a dog grooming parlour.

If you're part of a White House that thought you could 'Venezuela' Iran, and failed to anticipate the Strait becoming a problem, I don't think reporters should give you anonymity to lob incognito insults at the geopolitical instincts of others.

I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them. I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.

I’m not convinced everything’s a distraction from the Epstein Files. I think he’s doing all this bullshit because he’s an asshole.

More fantastic news!

A real loss in this moment of darkness.

Would be good if the Prime Minister and/or Home Secretary would for once come out and describe this as the unadulterated racism and xenophobia it so clearly is.

I bet he’s sweating now.

WTF. They did this because she was using a dashcam? Every time you think it couldn't get any worse ...

just choked on my beverage

If it walks like a Nazi, talks like a Nazi and acts like a Nazi, its probably Stephen Miller

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Ruthless when it’s Burnham. Less so when it’s Trump.

RIP Alex Pretti. The nurse was shot dead by federal agents in Minneapolis as he wss filming & protesting agents involved in the Trump ICE deportation effort. Guardian www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

ICE detained a 2-year-old girl in Minneapolis and put the child on a flight to a detention center in Texas, despite a court ordering her release: www.startribune.com/agents-detai...

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.

This speech by Trump surely marks the end of the transatlantic alliance. An American president itching to incinerate NATO, conquer Greenland, and get far-right parties elected to government across Europe.

Mine for @lbc.co.uk www.lbc.co.uk/article/trum...

Norwegian PM Støre says Trump repeatedly raises—complains about, pleads for, and demands—the Nobel Peace Prize every time they meet. Støre gives same answer each time: decision is made independently by Norwegian Nobel Committee, with no role for Norwegian gov—a concept Trump appears unable to grasp.

Before WW2 British Nazis said this about Adolf Hitler. Now the Telegraph is doing it as Donald Trump threatens us. We see you.

This dude is intense and correct

It’s important to find your moments of joy in humanity, especially in dark and cold times
