Chagos with Ed Milliband! [Am I doing this right?]

Ah, the great wisdom of Polymarket.

I was a fan of Lou Haigh before it was cool and this feels like years of keeping the faith finally getting somewhere 😎

This does make Andy Burnham the first Labour Prime Minister to not have a member of the Benn family in their Cabinet.

I see Labour MPs still announcing stuff on X, a platform specifically designed to make people hate them, 100% shaped to push them out of public life and which would ideally see many of them in prison. Funny old world.

I feel we could talk more about the scope of the AI/robotics fantasy; it represent's Capital's ambition to dispense with Labor entirely. I don't think it will work, ultimately, but ultimately is a long time (see Keynes: in the long run etc) and in the meantime it will do a lot of human damage.

Habemus Burnham

just a bunch of people going to each other's houses

So much of British politics is just people talking endlessly over live footage of a door

King Charles told me the public keeps eating his prime ministers so l asked how many prime ministers he has and he said he just goes to the parliament and gets a new prime minister afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding prime ministers to the public and then his son started crying.

Trump delighted to see a black shirt

Saved this one for such an occasion

Infantino to award Argentina the FIFA Peace Prize

Paredes congratulating the Spanish players. #SPAARG #ESPARG

love them or loathe them, there's one thing you can't deny about the Argentinian football team: they're a bunch of cunts

A class act until the end, Argentina!

Well, this will be fun in a few minutes

Just waiting to see how Trump makes the trophy ceremony about him

I now kinda want to watch an Argentina-Paraguay game. The football equivalent of Aliens vs Predators.

The greatest lie the devil ever told was that you could stop someone being wrong on the internet

Disallow that!!!!

Me at kick off / Me at full time

Me at kick-off / me at full time

live saddam hussein reaction

Amusing how frustrated this Argentina squad are by a ref finally calling out some of their bullshit

Couldn’t happen to a worse person.

He’s being kept awake by the sheer irrepressible force of Infantino’s obsequiousness

Turns out there's an arcane bylaw that sets a shared 10-goal limit (including penalties) between the final and third place playoffs, so these players are just doomed to play this game until they die

Both sides really, really trying hard to avoid having to meet Donald Trump at a trophy ceremony.

Olmo off for Manwë

Incredible that theyve spent so much money trying to try and convince America this is a sport worth watching and it's literally

When mum came back from the rave with her new pals

KNIGHTHOOD FOR ROONEY

Lmao thank you Wayne Rooney for once

The BBC following that half time show with a Romesh musical number about how great the BBC are feels spectacularly ill-judged lol

the World Cup routinely gets the biggest global audiences of all tv. it simply does not need to debase itself in this way. this does not add to the game, it does not grow the audience, it does not serve any purpose but to get Gianni Infantino closer to some more famous people.

Stephen Miller, fuming, ordering the deportation of that entire group of kids

Notice how Justin Bieber has killed the whole vibe

Thought that said J6 for a second, thought they were bringing on QAnon Shaman

It’s weird how the Iran war is now back at roughly the intensity it was before the ceasefire but nowhere near the same position in the news

They're all talking to each other on Musk's Twitter, which is a place where all the racists gather and hotbox crack smoke together, and which incredibly all our fucking journalists and politicians spend all their time on while also apparently being oblivious to it.

Today I feel Spanish

Something something go woke go broke
