“As of early 2026, Israel's population is approximately 9.6–10 million, representing roughly 0.11% to 0.12% of the total world population”. How can such a tiny number of people cause so much chaos? Does my head in….

Excellent excellent read 👏👏👏

The tide is turning. Even the Telegraph is now admitting the damage the Brexit deal has done to the economy.

‘We like it a lot’: how Romania created the largest deposit return scheme in the world - The Guardian The world needs to copy this, ideally funded by the petro-chemical industry. Incentives can work, turning trash into cash would be a start especially in places plagued by ocean borne plastics

Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study explains it: a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else. Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

The BBC should offer to settle out of court with Trump by donating the likely legal fees to endsexualviolence.org. Would be interesting to see his justification for turning this down

Nigel Farage says small businesses have been betrayed by Brexit’s red tape, but the betrayal is his. He promised freedom from bureaucracy, yet delivered border chaos, higher costs and endless paperwork. The small firms that trusted him are now trapped in the system he built.

For all mountain bikers out there….

On most issues, most of us disagree with Farage: Brexit, leaving ECHR, paying Taliban for refugees, Trussonomics, tax breaks for the wealthy, huge welfare cuts, binning NetZero, scrapping workers’ rights, arselicking Trump… Our politics should reflect us, not him. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

As true as it ever gets

Can someone at the @gmcuk.bsky.social explain to me why Aseem Malhotra is still on their Register? Pedalling medical misinformation is inconsistent with safe practice in the UK.

Crackpot conspiracy theorists Next they will be looking for David Icke to join news.sky.com/story/claims...

Farage’s immigration ‘plan’ amounts to nothing more than threats (or promises, if you’re racist) to be as inhumane, unlawful, moronic and prejudiced as possible about asylum seekers. It’s the most unworkable, unthinkable, ruinous, Trump-branded horseshit. Brexit failure and toxic racism on steroids.

2016: Boris Johnson making the case for Brexit, "Let us take back control of our borders" 2025: Dame Angela Eagle, "We have had no prospect of returning anybody to France since Brexit, as the Withdrawal Agreement didn't contain any kind of returns agreement"

Release the Epstein files. The fat felon child 🍇ist 🐖man is on the list.

here's today's post: "he’s so fucking guilty — and everyone knows it" — what a ridiculous charade. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

We wouldn't need the Epstein list if we believed women in the first place. Food for thought. 🤔

Exposing Reform’s Oil Ties Significantly Reduces Party Support, New Research Finds scq.io/ErOvG3d

Radio 4 currently ruining my breakfast with a fawning “interview” with Trump. Maybe they challenged him on his fascist policies, rising authoritarianism, Epstein, raping girls and erratic trade wars but probably not (I just couldn’t listen)

Ed Miliband to tell MPs who reject net zero policies they are betraying future generations

Don’t buy the polished crap from the White House. Texas flood deaths weren’t a surprise...they were the price of gutting services. Cut first responders...ignore warnings...and act shocked when people die? That’s not weather. That’s political manslaughter.

‘There’s a smell of death in the air’: chaos in Tehran as residents try to flee or find shelter - The Guardian While I don’t agree with Iran developing a nuclear weapon there are diplomatic options. Israel is a terrorist state and guilty of war crimes - we should NOT be supporting them in any way

#TheReformParty and #NigelFarage want to abolish the NHS! Like the US, where millions of people go bankrupt & lose their home if they get ill. Multimillionaires like Farage can afford it. Can you? #ReformParty "Reform and Labour separated by 4 votes in Runcorn". www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c3...

Trumps US is no "ally" And we dont want a deal for US crap food either

Fuck Pam Bondi. Fuck Trump. Fuck Musk. Fuck their fascism. We the people! Thank you, dear Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett!

Please @bbcradio4.bsky.social don’t parrot Tory rhetoric about their plan to set the country on “a new path” to tackle #climate change. That’s not what they’re doing. Badenoch is trashing the science & setting the country on a course to be poorer and more prone to climate disaster

So, with devastating climate disasters, a world made more unsafe and cruel by Trump and our own country wrecked from 14yrs of Tory failure, Badenoch thinks scrapping Net Zero targets and leaving the ECHR is the answer. She’s nothing more than an idiotic Twitter troll, churning out posts for Musk.

The #measles vaccine has saved an estimated 5 lives every second since 2000. 👉Prevent measles by getting vaccinated with two doses of the measles vaccine.

Trump knew this would happen. He knew Putin would strike. And he simply didn’t give a damn. Using Ukraine’s dead civilians as a tool of extortion is despicable, even for him. #SlavaUkrainii 🇺🇦 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Some good news on a Monday for Scottish nature and wildlife! www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.
