Everything OK here except me.

Millions of us are still struggling to access affordable NHS dental care. I’ve signed 38 Degrees’ petition demanding Keir Starmer properly funds NHS dentistry now, will you join me? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/fu...

Nigel Farage is coming for our human rights. My piece for @tribunemagazine.bsky.social. www.tribunemag.co.uk/2025/10/farage-is-coming-for-our-human-rights

Hi Lisa Nandy! I’m a BAFTA winner from a small town. Instead of asinine questions like this, why not tell us how we can continue to make a living in the eviscerated creative sector over which you notionally preside?

If you think that black and brown faces in advertising is linked to "legitimate concerns" about mass migration, it does suggest that you think that all black and brown people are foreigners. Which, for a party whose current leader is black and whose previous leader was brown, is quite something.

I feel like if you mistakenly get a nazi tattoo, you could probably get it removed? rather than keeping the nazi tattoo

I am old enough to remember them saying they would abolish them

Everyone Hates Elon On Instagram has produced this handy poster for printing out and pinning to noticeboards. It follows the news that Nigel Farage has been in talks with the US lobby group ADF. If you want a copy, here’s the link… form.typeform.com/to/nEeFcC7D

"Whatever you think of her opinions, you have to agree that the money is GREAT." These fucking people. That laugh after "I'm very sorry".

😱

Um. There’s a woman presenting this too.

No. Seriously, no. Yes, Labour have been hopeless. And yes, the media needs to get off Farage's dick. But anyone who votes Reform is saying that racism isn't a red line for them. That's on them and no one else. And I don't have friends like that. Bit of personal responsibility please!

This is a huge story. Don't let him get away with it. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

get why she had to go but irksome she lost her job to something quite complex and, let's be honest, reasonably minor in the grand scheme of things, when shadow cabinet members get to merrily hang out with Eddie Swastika without any repercussions

2025: Yvette Cooper suspends the rights of child refugees to come to the UK, effectively rejecting Article 8 of the ECHR 2016: Yvette Cooper making a passionate plea for child refugees to come to the UK Cooper spent over a decade speaking up for child refugees, now she rejects Article 8 of ECHR

particularly appalled by yvette cooper. how difficult would it be for any of your party to talk about migrants with a scrap of humanity? instead you’re legitimising just overt racism to try and… stop people voting for another racist? “reform is bad that’s why we’re behaving exactly like them”

is it only asylum seekers our Labour Prime Minister would object to living next to or would the sentiment apply to black and brown people in general? if merely the former, would he like to explain how he knows people he sees, say, in the street, actually are asylum seekers and not citizens?

Don’t ignore that the bbc asked a racist question here

So you've essentially got Reform Kent County Councillors posing with people doing that. Welcome to normal island

So that 3 fingered salute appears to be a fascist thing linked to Serbian neo-nazis. Clearly they think it's a brilliant subtle gesture which nobody is going to bother fact checking

This needs to be shared more

[mysterious circle of robed figures] John Boyne: dark lord! dark lord, help me! JK Rowling: whatsss wrong? Boyne: i'm being bullied! Boyne: me! john boyne! Boyne: author of the boy in the striped pajamas Boyne: [whispers] a fable

Unusual choice of outfit, but I guess he knows what he’s doing

I’ve mulled over posting this for months now. But yesterday it came to a head. And I’m aware that the people who need to see it will either not be here, or will suggest that I’m lying. I live near an asylum hotel. The reason I didn’t post earlier is that I didn’t want to raise undue attention

Instead of watching the cup final some of us paid 20p out of our pocket money to see Cromwell at the Rivera Cinema. It was a very good film. Before King Charles was beheaded he seemed quite cheerful.

Feel like this little sob story *could* have mentioned that Boyne's Polari nomination came five days after he wrote a piece referring to trans-inclusive women as the evil wives in the Handmaid's Tale, "ready to pin a handmaiden down as her husband rapes her". www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

wow, all it took was one week of restricted access to porn.

Remember this next year when they have all their pink-washing branding and merch during Pride month. They cave to bigotry and won't stand up for their own staff. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/08...

Think about how fucked up you'd need to be to starve a baby, or support someone who's doing so. Think how many millennia of evolutionary conditioning you have to override as a human, as a primate, as a mammal, to stifle the screaming you feel inside when you see a skeletal baby.

Accidentally pushing a pull door at first is a completely understandable mistake. It’s that second, angrier push that tells the world who you really are

In "Legitimate Concerns" news. 41% of the 899 arrested for taking part in Farage Riots last year had been reported for crimes associated with intimate partner violence. For those arrested by one police force, this figure was 68%. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Many thanks to anyone who chooses to share this. These are the last of the 53000+ books I bought from my ex-publisher Unbound earlier this year, after they stopped paying me and I took my rights back. We have 200-300 left and Jim would love to clear a bit of space in his room (he is very large).

No one can ever be accused of ‘wasting police time’ again. I’ve just watched a video of police arresting a 75 year old ex teacher for peacefully protesting against genocide. George Orwell would be proud. Didn’t have Labour being more authoritarian than Braverman on my bingo card.

Peaceful protesters yesterday, writing the words on their placards which will convert them from ordinary citizens to terrorists in the eyes of the government and the law. Words which put them in the same legal group as Osama bin Laden. The rank absurdity of Cooper’s decision captured in one photo.

This is beat for beat exactly what Section 28 did. Oh, and you can't blame this one on Tories. This guidance was drawn up exclusively after Labour took power. This Labour government is the single worst thing to happen to the LGBT+ community since Margaret Thatcher. Shame on every Labour member.

People think money has ruined football but the sight of a rapist dictator standing next to a corrupt football official in front of a big gold trophy at a competition bankrolled by Saudi Arabia reminds me the game still belongs to us.

So exactly 16 days after govt introduced bans on 6 water companies paying bonuses, including @SouthWestWater fat cat CEO Susan Davy of South West Water fame gets paid nearly £200,000 in shares bonuses. That didn't take long then. As I said at the time, nothing but performative politics.

Feministly arguing that people assigned male at birth are innately better at strategy games than those assigned female at birth. Sensational women’s rights movement you’ve got there.

The only thing Jo Cox's murder has changed about the British public sphere is that now MPs raise it as a spectre to suggest they're being threatened violently when anyone disagrees with them, all the while pushing the policies and rhetoric of her murderer.

Not enough has been written about Schrödinger’s assistant, Otto.
