@nickturse.bsky.social on how DOD is covering up casualties. theintercept.com/2026/04/01/i...

So Kemi would have stood shoulder to shoulder with Trump on Day One but a month later - having committed British service personnel and weapons to attack Iran - she would have realised she'd made a mistake. Well, that really does inspire immense confidence.

Every single friend or ally of Trump ends up betrayed, denied, under the bus. Except Putin.

With Trump's administration mired in crises and his approvals at an all-time low, expect the betting on who controls the Senate to shift in the Democrats favour. My latest for @gamblingcom.bsky.social www.gambling.com/uk/news/us-s...

This analysis draws heavily on polling by @ipsosintheuk.bsky.social for @news.sky.com - there is a clear difference between the 2024 Reform vote and those who have defected from the Conservatives since (not to mention with the Tory loyalists who are still sticking with the party).

Countries banning all teenagers from social media because "their brains aren't developed enough to handle it", meanwhile nobody's talking about the percentage of retirement-aged adults who have irreversibly cooked their fucking brains on Facebook since 2020.

Big shout out to all the idiots among the commentariat who have frequently described Trump's actions in Venezuela as 'successful'.

It was a tradition. Donate millions via opaque measures to the government party. Get 40 times that in government contracts. Now the Woke Mob want to take all that away. H/T @nytpitchbot.bsky.social

My thoughts on the forthcoming Hungarian election. Orban faces his toughest challenge yet and is odds-on to lose, but can we trust the polls or process. Via @gamblingcom.bsky.social www.gambling.com/uk/news/hung...

Not even 🇪🇺 children have escaped the disaster of disinformation and radicalization. The EU Counter-Terrorism Coordinator warns that children as young as 12 are being radicalized online within weeks. Beyond jihadist threats, violent right- and left-wing ideologies are targeting young people online.

I would like to remind everyone about what children’s lives were like before people literally died fighting for workers rights and child labor laws. The elite pedophile class absolutely has NO qualms about sending your children to work from the moment they can walk. History tells us as much.

Trump lying? Surely not? That politicians, media, markets hang on his words is probably the stupidest thing that has ever happened.

Another bumper pay out for Trump and his cronies #oilprices #iranwar

The boss of the International Energy Agency said the crisis caused by the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz is worse than the two oil shocks of the 1970s and the gas shortage connected to Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine put together

Iran Mmmm…who to believe. Meanwhile the markets: up / down someone’s making 💰

Marco Rubio is closing fast on J.D. Vance in the betting to succeed Trump as Republican nominee, but does this gamble make sense? My latest for @gamblingcom.bsky.social www.gambling.com/uk/news/repu...

Ed Davey announces LibDems want UK to take control of our nuclear arsenal - a v important issue (few realise we rely on the US to maintain warheads unlike France who are independent) Whether pro nuclear or not, it’s an issue often ignored. Will it get any more coverage? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The due diligence report on Peter Mandelson's appointment handed to Keir Starmer warned about Mandelson's financial links to Russia, which he retained "long after Putin's annexation of Crimea"

Reform UK on the war - 9 March, Robert Jenrick: ‘this war needs to come to an end as soon as possible….that’s why Nigel Farage immediately ruled out suggestions that UK might deploy boots on the ground. Nor do we see why British aircraft should become involved in offensive action.’ Daily Telegraph

It is truly terrifying that so many educated, broadly sane/competent people treat seriously the words of an insane, compulsive liar with zero track record for anything other than crime.

Ed Miliband, famously closing coal mines as a 14-year-old minister in Thatcher's government during the miners' strike

Disabled people tried to warn you. We said the “better off dead” narrative being weaponized against us would be used for other groups of people. The fascists won’t ever stop. They see everyone else as less than. Expendable. Not worthy of life. Its eugenics on a massive scale

It is very possible that the next UK govt is a right-wing ally of fascist USA. Which then goes to war with Western Europe, in an informal alliance with Putin. At that stage, what are we non-fascists who consider Western Europe to be an ally supposed to do?

They will deny any connection - instead blaming the UK govt and welfare. And successfully gaslight a critical mass of bewildered UK voters. Just as they have with countless fake talking points and slogans for the past 50 years. Basic #UKSR rules.

Tonight sees the opening primaries of the US Midterms. Texas is the highlight and one of the key targets in the Democrats goal of regaining the Senate. My latest for @gamblingcom.bsky.social www.gambling.com/uk/news/us-m...

I am begging people to understand Gorton and Denton is a very untypical constituency. In most English seats, the Green surge and the Reform advance we saw last night would deliver a Reform MP. As things stand, Farage should be the massive favourite to be next PM.

This, from @davidallengreen.bsky.social is frankly terrifying: "In essence: Palantir commercially colonised the Ministry of Defence because the Ministry of Defence let them." davidallengreen.com/2026/02/land...

Restore Britain's language is not just racist it's now indistinguishable from Neo-Nazi groups.

The document described here is a big development that expands our understanding of Epstein's criminal activities, but remains too redacted. We know the Trump administration is covering up for Epstein's pedophile buddies. This is evidence they're covering up for drug cartels too.

The US Justice Department withheld testimony that Donald Trump sexually abused a girl when she was 13 or 14 - according to a source who viewed unredacted Epstein files. This is the worst scandal in US history and should be the biggest news story on the planet right now. www.npr.org/2026/02/24/n...

My final thoughts, bets and predictions for the Gorton and Denton by-election, for @gamblingcom.bsky.social www.gambling.com/uk/news/gort...

The rise of Plaid is about more than just Labour's failures. In 2016, 31% of Welsh voters said they were more Welsh than British, and 34% of those said they would vote Plaid Cymru. In 2025, the numbers were 41% of voters, 53% of whom planned to vote for Plaid

More of this please. Accelerated decoupling.

64% of the UK public view the Reform UK leader unfavourably, up from 59% in June 2025, according to new favourability ratings published by polling company YouGov Some 27% approve of Farage, down from a peak of 32% in May and August last year www.ft.com/content/2bcb...
