Home Office robotically repeating its line-to-take "We must be honest about the impact" - while steadfastly refusing to be remotely honest about the impact on individuals/families, social care, or the economy and public finances. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Reform’s Nick Candy sells house for £275m Not headline but FT reports that he threatened when they approached him planning to report he was selling Candy denied and *threatened legal action* This is how it works in Britain. Super rich use lawyers to silence anything they don’t like

You have to feel sorry for James Dyson. Imagine buying up 33,000 acres of farmland to avoid tax, only for Labour to then close the loophole. We need more patriots like him, who drive up farmland prices and vote for Brexit then fuck off to Singapore.

It's almost certain Putin/Russia has the Epstein files (and other stuff) for blackmail. They know Trump will either die or be voted out in the next 2-3 years and so now is the time to cash in the compromise chips. Everything Trump is now doing benefits Putin - everything.

Just remembering the letter Pete Hegseth’s mom sent him, calling him an abuser of women and telling him their family is “broken by your behavior and lack of character.”

Moscow is now claiming that Estonia has no legal right to exist… and has activated terror cells to “defend” Russian-speaking Estonians.

The bold patriots of Brexit invariably responded to my long threads about the real-world impact of Brexit with zero curiosity, zero empathy, zero compassion. Abuse was the order of the day. They'd swallowed every lie fed to them and had no interest in listening to the truth. 6/18

The UK has relied on food imports since at least Napoleonic times. Unfortunately, the Brexiters were so busy obsessing over blue passports and the tax cuts they never stopped to work that one out.

A French container ship has successfully passed through the Strait of Hormuz, the first French container vessel to do so since the Iran war began.

I don't care if this makes me a dinosaur. If I found out that a writer had used a solitary line of AI I would never read them again. If I thought someone had used AI in an email to me, I would never respond or indeed respect them again.

Rafael Cruz was born in Alberta, Canada. His father was Cuban-born. Because his mother was a US citizen, he acquired US citizenship at birth under American law, even though born in Canada. He renounced his Canadian citizenship only after it became public for his political career.

Many More Should Have Also Been Prosecuted….

Both of Marco Rubio’s parents were born in Cuba. Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971, before they became US citizens. He is a US citizen because he was born in the US under birthright citizenship. #Hypocrites

Trump 'absolutely' considering withdrawing from NATO Since Dugin laid out the plan in 1998, the main foreign policy aim of the Kremlin has been to sever Britain from Europe (achieved in 2016) and break up the Transatlantic Alliance (2026?) www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

If you didn’t see it coming, you weren’t paying attention. And he doesn’t have to do it formally to defy Congress, he can do it with actions that they can’t stop.

BREAKING: “It is increasingly clear that as the world continues down this volatile path our long term national interest requires closer partnership with our allies in Europe and with the European Union.. Brexit did deep damage to our economy” Prime minister Keir Starmer 👏

A longer one today - bring coffee. Labour has driven down migration dramatically - but it’s hitting care, the NHS, housing and the wider economy, while Reform voters remain unmoved and Labour voters become pissed off. A losing strategy on every front.

Wild that RW journalists are shocked by the amount our supplies are going to be hit by a war. We are surrounded by sea & you cheered on extra trade barriers with our nearest neighbours. Looking at you Nick Ferrari. You fkn dumbass.

Putin - “Mission complete.”

That's right and maxing out the basin for 14 years got the Tories only 36 days worth of gas. Mad how obsessed the media is with such trivial amounts - ignoring the solutions which actually exist www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Correct me if I’m wrong but North Sea oil and gas a) all goes on international market; b) is a mature basin and c) new fields take a decade plus to come on stream So why is everyone talking about the North Sea??!?!

It isn’t a tough job. It’s an easy job they refuse to do.

is it actually unclear? really? "It was unclear why the White House did not issue orders to block the tanker or whether it would allow future Russian oil shipments to reach the island..." www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/w...

‘More drilling in the North Sea would do nothing to improve the UK’s energy security, as a new analysis finds no fossil fuel importer is safe from chokepoints in the global supply chain.’ Anyone from the BBC going to put this to Farage/Badenoch? www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Madeleine Sumption (MAC) highlighted something that is largely missing from the UK media + political debate. The most likely reason why claims are going down in Europe & going up in the UK is that asylum seekers can't now make a second claim in another EU country - but the UK is outside that

Difficult to think of a more humiliating moment for the US. Certainly worse than Iraq or Afghanistan. You have to go back to the fall of Saigon to find anything comparable.

'A man is known by the company he keeps'

How can one not admire history’s exquisite dark sense of humor? As part of a “delegation” of sanctioned Russian State Duma deputies visiting the United States, there was none other than the actual grandson of USSR's Vyacheslav Molotov, there to discuss a Trump–Putin pact.

...& Moscow dies laughing.

How unfortunate that, being a far right racist and misogynist party, means that you get associated with other far right racist and misogynist people, who might 'damage' your 'image'. 🙄🙃 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

New York’s public hospitals dropped Palantir this week. Is it time the NHS did the same? https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/mar/26/new-york-hospitals-palantir-ai

But it’s simple. It sounds plausible and keeps the fossil fuel money rolling in. Farage wants the same. Tories and Reform don’t give a damn about what *actually* works for the country. Just money for their parties and votes from people, too uninformed to notice how much they’re screwing them over.

Invading a country basically for laughs is bad, but weirdly not uncommon. Doing so with such incompetence that you alter the global balance of power against yourself is a new category of ridiculous.

Hundreds of North Sea licences granted by UK Tory Govt between 2010 and 2024 produced only 36 days of gas. Tories, Reform selling fantasy of endless gas reserves. Energy security needs more investment in renewables, nuclear, better insulated homes, better public transport.

A documentary on how Russian psyops have successfully destroyed 50% of Americans. Every swivel-eyed view here originated in Moscow. www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3Y_...

True that. Putin agrees.

Why isn't the BBC covering this? www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

If media outlets want to give Farage hours of airtime to talk shit, maybe they could also spend the same amount of time properly scrutinising him for all the ways in which he cheats, lies, grifts and generally does nothing but harm to our country and our democracy. For balance.

So it turns out the real scandal of the Gorton and Denton by-election was the willingness of media organisations to collude in Nigel Farage's attempt to undermine the result of a free and fair election www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/how-the-bb...

Bad losers at Reform just cost the taxpayer ££££ on an investigation carried out on the basis of hearsay and promoted by right wing news channels. www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater...

Oh.

How many people that read this on supermarket shelves will find out it was all bullshit?

As unspeakably terrible their sex trafficking & abuse of teenage girls was, were Ghislaine Maxwell & Jeffrey Epstein selling out the United States of America to the Russians? Is this the s#it Trump is so freaked out about being made public? open.substack.com/pub/alisav/p...

Lying about your own country in return for money from a foreign power. There should be a word for that.
