Oh my god they did the meme.

🔺 BREAKING: UK blocking Trump from using RAF bases for strikes on Iran

Andrew's completely broke which raises the possibility that a Norfolk duty solicitor is currently having the strangest day of his / her life.

Elon Musk is talking about Nigel Farage's Reform Party: he says Reform are trying to eradicate white people in Britain. He is a radicalised + increasingly racist lunatic - obsessed with theories of white racial extinction + promoting the idea of civil war in Britain www.msn.com/en-gb/news/u...

This is genuinely insane, I clicked to see the years expecting the low part to be 70s or maybe 90s but its 2015!!!!! The entire anti trans panic is a decade old

‘It’s soul-crushing’: young people battle to find any work in bleak jobs market

Thirty years of concern. Never enough courage.

Senior Reform UK figures attend launch of How to Launder Money book

if you're an older person who finds words like mogg and maxxing annoying, just starting using them. people over the age of 30 have the superpower to end trends by simply adopting them

This is everything it should be - meticulously researched, deeply thought out, uncomfortably probing, scrupulously fair, AND ALSO outrageously entertaining. This is how progressives should tell stories. An hour flew by.

Announcing that you're a pathetic scaredy-cat on national radio is not the flex he thinks it is.

Oh good at long last we are having a national debate about immigration, why haven't we had one of those before?

How will the government survive without the strategic genius who wanted to make Bear Grylls the UK's ambassador to Washington?

Italy winning a World Cup cricket match is just very funny, great bit.

Jim Ratcliffe says the UK has been “colonised by immigrants”. Well, (1) it hasn’t; (2) he’s an immigrant (to Monaco) himself; & (3) 30,000 of Monaco’s 38,000 residents are immigrants like him who have thereby, yes, colonised that Principality. He needs better comms/PR advice!

ah. well there you go. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/meet-th...

Presumably related to this story from a few years back. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

This is an extraordinary interview in which the former FCDO perm sec basically tells No 10 not to appoint Antonia Romeo to be cab sec, and that they should talk to him about her record.

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

We have come full circle, people.

This is Reform MS Laura Anne Jones inside the Welsh Parliament railing against a decision by a Bangor Uni student society to ban Reform from a debate. It is worth noting that Ms Anne Jones has previously repeatedly declined requests for interviews with journalists.

Something compelled me to make this

How extraordinarily fortunate for Wes Streeting that the only text messages he sent Peter Mandelson just happened to be exactly the sort of things other Labour MPs want to hear from a potential leadership candidate

i just saw someone say "Kid Rock makes music for the people who have tattoos of their kids but not custody" and hol up i need a minute

Particularly enjoying the articles explaining why he is a serious candidate while misspelling his name.

In the Portuguese presidential election, very clear victory of the centre-left candidate Segura against the radical right Ventura.

Just beyond parody at this point

well, champagne Sunday it is

BREAKING: Morgan McSweeney quits as Keir Starmer's chief of staff amid fall-out from the Mandelson scandal

This type of X comms from the Home Office seems a political gift to Reform, and fuel for overt racists, while repelling progressives at the same time

Facebook memories just reminded me of one of my favourite ever bits of feedback. Funnier now that his fans are no longer emailing me with their lively critiques

When they speak of the duality of man, I think they mean this

The contrast between the “reputation-laundering” nature of the home-life feature and the breaking legal scandal in Murdoch’s parasitic world is stark. Both occurred on the same day. #UKMedia

Coincidentally, that's the face he made when Reinaldo told him the police were at the door

I do enjoy the winter olympics but I can never take it as seriously as the summer one just because 90% of the sports are falling down snow in slightly different ways.

Have written about a week where the hypocrisy of much of the media was laid bare (and address mine). I also write about the truth Starmer cannot say: he appointed Mandelson to the court of Trump not in spite of the Epstein connection but in a sense, because of it. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

I need everyone to know that on the crochet subreddit the mods made a big post about how they're taking a week off because there was too much fighting/political posts. so there's currently no mods on r/crochet and people are being absolutely insane

Can you imagine how bad your reputation for tedium has to be that I, a trade and dungeons and dragons nerd, feel confident enough to public dunk on you for it?

🚨 BREAKING: Donald Trump has formally approved the Chagos Islands deal

He just tweeted it out …

Irony is dead.

Weird and almost universal revisionism today. Even at the time, it was pretty clear that Mandelson wasn't appointed *despite* his dodgy links but *because* of them. Trump's Washington is a dirty swamp. Mandelson was deemed a man able to swim in it. This wasn't a secret. Everybody said it out loud.

went to type "Isambard Kingdom Brunel" and my phone autocorrected it to "Islamabad Kingdom Brunel", and anyway who would like to book my new, incredibly niche and very culturally insensitive drag act

8 Mile vibes in Westminster

Just a quick note to @greenparty.org.uk and @greenpartyhan.bsky.social - I was not consulted on being quoted on your leaflets and I have not endorsed your campaign (or any campaign in this seat). I think this note, like the bar chart next to it, is misleading and out of context.

Exclusive: Morgan McSweeney sought official advice about whether Mandelson could be the UK's ambassador to the US on a part-time basis Officials “had to explain that being His Majesty’s Ambassador in Washington was a full time job… in Washington" observer.co.uk/news/politic...

This isn’t some anonymous tip. This is sworn testimony, under penalty of perjury, from someone who said Trump threatened to kill her if she exposed Epstein’s sexual abuse.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.
