No interest in golf but watching the Ryder Cup hoping to see the US lose. Can no longer stand the moronic chanting though so it’s back to NGAF (unless Europe crush it obvs)

Yet again some crappy company upstream has fucked up a huge section of Beverley Brook for wildlife and Wimbledon Common users alike. Investigate & prosecute!

err, great visual BBC…

So Kemi Badenoch's Conservatives, who have repeatedly pledged to fight for "free speech" and a free press have just banned me and Byline Times from attending their conference. Has never happened before under any previous leader bylinetimes.com/2025/09/04/k...

@alexpodyssey.bsky.social meant to tag you! Awesome series thanks so much!

Just spell-binding - the whole series. Most enjoyed Narcissus and Medusa. ‘…the most frightening thing one can combine with lions and dragons and snakes….is a woman’s intellect’. open.spotify.com/episode/67sR...

Make it make sense…arresting pensioners with placards protesting what a London-based surgeon documents as appalling levels of malnutrition and starvation, severe burns, shrapnel wounds and tellingly huge numbers of gunshot wounds in Gaza.

Pointless headline BBC - maybe of interest what Blair is trying to insert himself/AGI into given his/their atrocious record but the article doesn’t even mention him.

I wrote a short, open-access account of how the High Court ended up accepting the UK govt's argument that protecting "international peace and security" means arming genocide in Palestine: please read and share - onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

The first politicised human rights reports by the US have been published. I won’t link them. I am appalled. No longer a serious document. See the conclusion on El Salvador by the US - and compare to that of Amnesty International.

"Do not mistreat or oppress a foreigner" - Exodus 22:21 Stencil seen in Charlevoix, Michigan

Can someone eligible please nominate her for the NPP? US sanctions UN expert Francesca Albanese, critic of Israel's Gaza offensive www.bbc.com/news/article...

cock-er-roaches 😬

If I met the criteria for a nominator I’d defo put Francesca Albanese up for the Nobel Peace Prize

Excellent critique of the UK NSS from Richard Reeve pointing out the gaps and contradictions. ‘Nothing in the rest of the strategy suggests any effort to uphold [freedom, democracy and internationalism]; there are actually more mentions of how they may need to be compromised and traded off.’

Red paint = disgraceful & proscription This - including the news that the IDF killed 139 people in the last 24 hours - gets 🦗🦗🦗 with ongoing arms sales. Shameful. Gaza hospital director killed in Israeli strike, Hamas-run health ministry says www.bbc.com/news/article...

A timely reminder that no matter how tiny, irrelevant and irredeemably out of office they’ve become, the modern Tory Party is still graced with some of the least pleasant humans on earth.

Last year was the deadliest year for journalists ever recorded, and 70% were Palestinians killed by Israeli forces.

ICEblock, which allows users to alert others to the geographical location of ICE officers, is the top social networking app in the App Store right now after Karoline Leavitt condemned it from the podium yesterday.

and the F-35 exports ruling just adds another layer of shame and UK complicity

BBC news headlines right now. It's utterly depressing.

💯 what Anna says! 👇

But…but…punks & rappers www.theguardian.com/world/video/...

Total cop out by the judges passing it back to parliament/ministers. Surely legally binding obligations are within their jurisdiction? How can supplying Israel with arms be considered a ‘positive contribution to wider peace and security’? Cue govt statement about ‘robust’ UK arms controls. Shameful.

Forget what’s actually happening in Gaza (or anything/anywhere else for that matter) - this is the BBC’s top story and a priority for Starmer & his cabinet of pathetic sound bite pearlclutchers - #WeLiveHere www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

Can someone tell the Israeli embassy that we are "deeply disturbed" by its genocide and the best way to stem increasing anti Israeli sentiment to stop murdering innocent Brown people.

The death toll of Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza is now estimated at 100,000 The list is 1,227 pages long. The first 11 pages are names of babies dead before the age of 6 months. The first 381 pages are all children. archive.is/2025.06.28-0...

NEW: 549 Palestinians now killed in the last 30 days. Itself shocking. But, EVERY SINGLE ONE WAS KILLED AT A FOOD AID STATION. A unique war crime. Firing squads using aid as bait. Palestinians in #Gaza face two choices: starve to death, or risk death to get food. 🧵

Time to roll out the due process clip… youtu.be/PDBiLT3LASk?...

I feel like I'm losing my mind. Here is the transcript of what Zohran Mamdani actually said about the phrase "globalize the intifada." This is his "refusal to disavow it." This is what has people terrified. Just fucking read it. Source: podscripts.co/podcasts/the...

No10 has issued odd internal guidance banning officials speaking at public events It means more closed govt & worse policy decisions-the opposite of what ministers say they want From @drhannahwhite.bsky.social & me @instituteforgovernment.org.uk www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/comment/gove...

As usual the BBC interviewing itself (x3) to retell us the headlines it’s just broadcast. Please tell me the same thing several times within the same news item with zero analysis or insight. Oh and now James Landale can repeat it all over again. Thanks BBC.

Didn’t really have Rutte down as such a public arse kisser despite the realpolitik. Should be squirming with professional and personal embarrassment at this press conference. Not one Western state has had the stones to call out the illegality. Starmer, Lammy & Healey all so craven and cowardly.

Almost every part of the #UN system is facing ~1/3 budget cuts of its operating costs. After 25 years of growth, the U.N.’s counterterrorism system might be coming to an end. @jordanstreet.bsky.social argues in @justsecurity.org that, if done right, this shift could actually be a +ve thing. #UN80
