Just the President of the US telling the United Nations that the UK wants to go to Sharia law. How in the fuck did anyone look at this brainless sack of shit and say “Yep, that’s the guy to run the most powerful nation on earth”?

It’s just racism, the like we haven’t seen in Britain in my lifetime.

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

This, it seems, is what the BBC had in mind when it drew up plans in March to alter “story selection” to win over Reform voters.

😢 How are flights so much cheaper than trains? Indeed, why are we forced to pick between cheap & polluting and expensive & sustainable? Well @greenpeace.eu has the answer: subsidies and MASSIVE tax breaks.

A month ago, the famine in Gaza, deliberately created by the Israeli government, was officially confirmed by UN agencies. Since then, there has been an eerie silence in the media here, with far fewer reports than there were before. But it hasn't ended. On the contrary, it has intensified.

It's almost as if, before the Gaza famine was officially recognised, it was a story, as media organisations could generate controversy by hosting Israeli government spokespeople and our own rightwing blowhards, insisting it was all a fabrication. Now that it can no longer be denied ... no story.

Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.

Kamala Harris: "It feels chaotic, but what I would offer you is what we are witnessing is the swift implementation of a plan that was decades in the making. Project 2025 didn't just drop out of thin air. That's a product of decades of work. Federalist Society, Heritage Foundation ... "

Why can't Starmer say this sort of stuff?

How concerned are you that Israel will start annexing parts of the West Bank? Yvette Cooper: "We have been clear, & I have been clear to the Israeli foreign minister, we have been clear to the Israeli govt, that they must not do that" Or you'll write them a stern letter, right?

JFC the President of the USA, repeating debunked conspiracy nonsense from behind the seal, that even his crank conspirasist health advisors are not claiming, relayed live all around the world. People will fkn die, because this shitstain needs the stories about Homan and Epstein to go away.

Thousands of Londoners have indefinite leave to remain. They have legal rights and are our friends, neighbours and colleagues, contributing hugely to our city. Threatening to deport people living and working here legally is unacceptable.

Recognising Palestine is not a substitute for stopping the genocide. When I was in the West Bank, No Other Land’s Basil Adra told the devastating truth.

I have defended the BBC again and again. No more.

Lest we forget... James Cleverly was one of three MPs asked to stand down as patron of a disability charity after voting for George Osborne's ESA cuts. #politicslive

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

✊ 🚨 Protest alert! Labour promised a publicly owned NHS, but now talk of private finance (PFI) is back on the table. 📍 Join @weownit.org.uk outside Labour’s Conference 🗓️ Monday 29 Sept | 8am–12pm 📌 Wheel of Liverpool Say it loud: NO NEW PFI in our NHS: forms.gle/oEM6AYsAEzC2...

Utterly absurd. For instance I know one couple - one Iranian, one Greek who have lived here for forty years under indefinite leave to remain permission. They spent their adult lives here. worked. Paid taxes. Bought homes. Had children who live & work here

Hotel is appalling. We are all in the attic.

😡This must be stopped! Labour's 2024 manifesto promised our NHS would always be "publicly owned and publicly funded". Now they are talking about reintroducing PFI into our NHS. PFI would set a ticking time bomb under our NHS that will blow up in patients' faces - ACT NOW.

It's party conference season. We thought it was time to see where each party stands on public ownership. 🔎 Some of the results might surprise you! Check out our full Public Ownership Party Scorecard via link in comments below👇

The privately-educated elite still dominate the UK's most powerful roles 68% of FTSE100 chairs were privately educated. 62% of judges were. 50% of newspaper columnists too. See a pattern, here? www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Retrospectively removing indefinite leave to remain would be immoral and economically damaging. It would tear families apart. Attacking it as ‘potentially illegal’ is completely beside the point. Argue with the (awful) idea. Don’t try ’well, actually you can’t do that’.

So Reform / Farage want to deport hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of UK residents, turning the country into an effective police state, breaking treaties, and impoverishing the economy and health service? Just focus on all that. The moral gutter of politics.

Farage’s new think tank, the misnamed ‘Centre for a Better Britain’, is very clearly planning a ‘Project 2025’ for the UK - ripping up the Climate Change Act, Equalities Act, even the ministerial code A recipe for chaotic authoritarianism www.ft.com/content/2260...

Morning rush-hour near London's Oval station. Trains pass underground every few minutes and there's a continuous flood of bicycles, but still there's one lane of gridlocked traffic. Your city will always have exactly as much gridlock as it makes room for.

There is no obvious limit to how far Trump is prepared to go. He wants everything. He wants everyone to swear undying loyalty to him. He is prepared to do anything to get it. “Anything” might currently seem unimaginable to us. It's time we started imagining it. 4/4

Hitler continually tested the boundaries, seeing what he could get away with in terms of rhetoric, power grabs and assaults on other people. As Establishment resistance folded, he found he could get away with more and more. Trump is on the same path. 3/4

Gatwick second runway plan approved by transport secretary Chancellor Rachel Reeves said the plans would create "thousands of jobs and billions in investment", but the project has long faced opposition and the Green Party described it as "disaster".

The COVID enquiry and last night’s ITV documentary shone light on a dark time - when billions of pounds of public money were shovelled into the pockets of private investors rather than public institutions - wasting existing expertise, wasting money, wasting lives in the process.

I find the politicisation of autism spectrum disorder extremely troubling. Paracetamol or Tylenol as it is called in States should not be touted as a cause of ASD before anyone has scrutinised the data they allege will show this. 🧪🧵

Whether paracetamol, the Vee word, or any other tenuous 💩 RFK & eejits decide causes #Autism, they have one thing in common. They lay the blame firmly at the parent's door. Just unbelievably cruel. It's a complex, polygenic, largely unpredictable syndrome. Fact. @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social
