I do hope my mp @warinderjussmp.bsky.social will support and back this amendment.

⛔The government’s Railways Bill has a huge backdoor that will allow them to bring back privatisation later. MPs must demand changes to deliver real public ownership of our railway. @adrianramsay.bsky.social weownit.org.uk/act-now/pass...

Don’t turn on the State of the Union on Tuesday. Make it the lowest rated in history.

Please give this a mention in your Monday show @mrjamesob.bsky.social He can’t be allowed to get away with this absolute bollocks. The Reform London mayoral candidate has retweeted this, absolutely outraged.

I came off it because I did not want support a white supremacist pushing white supremacy ideology. I don’t know why government. political institutions and media remain

I’m calling for secure bike lockers at train stations — a simple step to make cycling safer — to be included in the Railway Bill, alongside the Lib Dem proposal for a 50% cut in rail fares for under-18s. Sign the petition to support secure bike lockers and make your voice heard. buff.ly/K0lQ3q9

And this from @davidallengreen.bsky.social on Palantir deals gets to the detail of why lock-in is so catastrophic. And that's before you get to the issues of sovereignty and security. Excellent. Hope either Government comes to senses or it's JRed to oblivion. giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

Describe yourself physically and mentally. Mentally: still 25 Physically: wishing I could still move like my mind thinks I can

Of course it did, it's Microslop, exposing confidential information is what they do best 🤷‍♀️

@shaunspiers1.bsky.social also calls out Reform's disinformation, "Richard Tice seems intent on turning away billions of pounds of investment and baking in our dependence on imported fossil fuels. Someone should wake him up and let him know that it's the twenty-first century, not the 1950s." (2/2)

First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped. Yet the Representation of the People Bill won’t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented. Tell Keir Starmer to change this. actionnetwork.org/petitions/th...

I can foresee sensible regimes enforcing travel bans in the not too distant future

@clementmolin.bsky.social Victorious Counter-Attack for Ukraine 🇺🇦 After several weeks of counter-attacks, the Ukrainian army has regained control of large disputed territories, including ~12 villages in the eastern Zaporizhzhia region. NThe Russian army 🇷🇺 has been repelled. 🧵THREAD🧵1/18 ⬇️

Now fancy that @foxglovelegal.bsky.social Who was schmoozing in Davos at tax payers expense in January 2020 with #Palantir on all the deals that UK ended up investing in? Antonia Romeo news.sky.com/story/nhs-fa... …but remember the NHS has no money 😡 dauk.org/dauk-renews-...

By refusing to even consider a customs union, Keir Starmer himself is the biggest block to closer ties with Europe. Unless he changes that stance, this is all just meaningless blather

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country? Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

Things the Guardian could investigate: Who paid for Farage’s house in Clacton? How much did Nigel Farage know about Nathan Gill’s payments? How much money did Farage receive from Bannon? Who was behind the £200000 donation to Reform?

Government deals with Palantir stink, and stank long before the Peter Mandelson scandal. The government must pivot away from companies like Palantir.

Brummies quietly logging the harassment from Raise the Colours and their ilk. We stand up to bullies.

I've never known anyone who was obsessed with immigration who wasn't an out and out loser and an absolute racist bigot. I'm saying it because it's simply not said enough.

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.

Then WAKE UP all of you and sort a few things out 1. Investigate Farage and his Russian/Epstein links 2. Stop playing on his terms and remember YOU ARE THE LABOUR PARTY. Act like one 3. Get rid of Palantir 3. Rejoin the EU 4. Sort out the electoral system 5. Sort out media ownership and the BBC

Damn right. There's still time to transform a wasted govt into a transformational one. It's not as though nobody knows what needs doing, or we're lacking ideas about how. Labour built the NHS in 3 years, and transformed the nation. They can this too. It just takes will.

The first Palantir contract was signed off at a secret meeting with Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings.

PM @mark-carney.bsky.social: PLEASE follow the lead of #NewBrunswick and get the Govt of #Canada off #Twitter / #X. Enough is enough!

The US State Department plans to fund Far Right (and pro-Russia) think-tanks and charities in Europe to promote American policy positions and oppose European online speech regulations, the FT reports. America’s biggest export: fascism.

England still looking solid in defence despite wales being back up to 15 men…

Fuck it. I’m opening a second bottle!

Oh go fuck off with the stoppage adverts @itvsport.bsky.social ! Fucksake!🤬 #6nationsRugby

I think Wales are in trouble here…

If I were Italian, I’d have felt robbed if Scotland got a try. Big effort at the end, but it looked like Italy’s game most of the day

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn’t from Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr Who or Transformers.

Amazon/Amazon Prime Video, Microsoft and Google are all I still use on that list. Have a few pairs of Levi jeans that were bought years ago, and that's about it.

A plea to my fellow professionals in the media. Please put Trump’s racism on the top of your news agendas? Where is it? The leader of the “free world” is using his racism to make all of our lives worse instead of better. A racist is a threat to us all. Whatever else he is doing, holds no worth.

I just signed a petition calling for an urgent investigation into Peter Mandelson's dealings with Palantir. Did he use his position as UK Ambassador to benefit the US spy tech firm? Sign now: www.foxglove.org.uk/campaigns/ma...

“the Ministry of Defence quietly announced that it had awarded a £240m contract to the US tech company Palantir, for the provision of ‘data analytics capabilities’…This contract …was directly awarded to Palantir – that is, without competitive tender.” sussexbylines.co.uk/politics/dem...

Post a ship that’s not #StarTrek or #StarWars

Mandelson? Now do Palantir. And Brexit.

"Epstein joined [Theil] with a $40 million investment in Thiel’s Valar Ventures, which, according to Ehud Barak, was ‘co-owned’ by Thiel and Epstein as they bought into the Israeli surveillance tech firm Carbyne. Can somebody please explain to me why exactly Palantir now has access to our NHS data?
