Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez: You may have heard that Spain is alone. They’re the same people who said that when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed. We are not alone — we are the first. Those who will end up alone are the ones defending the indefensible.

They’ll need to trim that bush.

Never related to a meme harder than I do with this one right now

Earlier today, the new Member of Parliament for Gorton and Denton, Hannah Spencer was sworn in.

@sarahastolat.bsky.social Happy Birthday! Hope you’ve had a great day! 🎉🎉🎉

I have a fear of speed bumps but I’m slowly getting over it

Could we please clarify who had the satsuma?

Imagine thinking that an endorsement from Galloway would lead to an *increase* in votes.

The Green party and Reform now have the same number of MPs elected in this parliament, though Reform has more in total thanks to Tory defecations.

Labour now at the FO stage of FAFO.

Move over, Zarah, I have a new MP crush.

We just had to bring home inauguration day Bernie Sanders from the bobble head museum. He’s just funny.

Amazing news

100% agree on this. Social media bans is akin to victim blaming and putting the onus on others to solve the problems and harms that big tech have brought and for which they refuse to deal with

Is there a more annoying advert than that Adobe AI one? I seem to see it everywhere. The only thing I want Adobe AI to do is automatically rotate my PDFs the right way when I open them.

Came across the phrase "cognitive DDOS" to describe our present culture. Understood instantly what it meant.

The geniuses who designed this house decided to put the boiler in the bedroom wardrobe. Consequently I’m sleeping with the window open in February. I dread to think what August will be like.

Surround yourself with the kind of people who consider The Princess Bride to be one of the greatest films of all-time.

First they came for Prince Andrew and I said "Excellent, now do the rest" Then they came for Peter Mandelson and I said "Yes, that's it, keep going."
