The #UK gets a new PM and he immediately says "we will end rough sleeping", meanwhile in #NZ the intent is to criminalise homelessness. #Burnham has an eye on the future, #Luxon #Peters #Seymour are stuck in the past. NZ needs hope, the UK might be about to get it. #ukpol #nzpol

#Trump trying to get in the photo is so fucking sad. #fifa #spain #worldcup #worldcupfinal

It's almost like #winstonpeters is a shill? #nzfirst means NZ last. Why be a technological backwater? www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3610... #nzpol #nz Electrification isn't just the future, it's fundamental economics.

#nigelfarage literally said he'd need £1m a year to stand as an MP and was immediately given £5m. None of his excuses stand up in light of this. Vote Binface. #farage #binface #clacton #ukpol www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

#Trump IS going to interfere in the #midterms. He will do so before, during and after. He will do absolutely ANYTHING not to lose. #America, you need to wrap your heads around what 'anything' means and prepare for that. If youre a police officer, what are you going to do when those orders come down?

What's crazy is that America could have stopped #Trump from running again. They should have. They didn't. Now the #USA, THE USA, has become a tinpot dictatorship. He WILL meddle in the midterm elections, he might even prevent them, he will do ANYTHING to avoid jail. Anything. Think about that.

There are topless men crying at the train station.. and they say the English aren't in touch with their feelings #England

In the UK I can't call my Doctor to make an appointment.. and they don't think this is a problem. It's not smarter, it's not better, it's about fudging the numbers. #ukpol

Sam Neill was a great person. Yes, he had an amazing and influential career, but the thing I admired most was who he was. He was an excellent person. We see the worst of us on the news every day, but the best of us we hold in our hearts. Sam was the best of us. #samneill

It's #diejuly - If #Graham, #McConnell and #Trump all die before the end of July, SUBWAY will give away a full 3-inch sub in honour of these great men.

If you listen carefully you can just about hear Binface's gradually rising concern that he might actually win this thing... #VoteBinface #CountBinface youtu.be/HTIESiyDNUQ?...

At this point Count Binface could save himself a lot of time and just repost Farage's social media clips. #countbinface #binface #nigelfarage #farage #clacton

Well, it's taken 2 years, but Nigel Farage is finally in Clacton #nigelfarage #farage #clacton

#National making being poor a crime. It's so unethical. It's inhuman. So deeply vicious, callous and lacking in empathy that even the police opposed it. #nzpol #nz www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3610... How can #Luxon call himself a #christian? What would Jesus do? Grotesque policy. Unforgivable.

Serious question, at what point does the UK officially adopt the siesta? #UK #siesta #heatwave #climatechange #toohottowork

Id never seen a real Tiger moth before, but there it is, taking refuge on the bird bath in this ridiculous 35 degree heat. #london #heatwave #climatechange #tigermoth

🥵 Expecting 35C even something a bit hotter tomorrow. Never in history of London meteorological history or indeed also true countrywide have we seen 35C (95F) in 3 consecutive months. Even non-consecutively it never happened... (1/2)

Electrician rang to say they won't be installing the #heatpump next week because there aren't any.. anywhere. I have quite literally had a meltdown. #ac #airconditioning #heatwave #climatechange I think the lack of sleep has gotten to me, I'm emotionally bereft.

This is bad

In politics, we’re torn between ideals and practicalities, aspirations and realities, the world as we want it, and as we find it But one day a manifesto comes along that reconciles both in every pledge. A rare moment of clarity and hope

You might ask yourself how British politics differs from American politics.. it's subtle.. #ukpol #farage

Not often I agree with #nzfirst but national IDs to use the internet are incredibly dumb. Data also shows that its 90% adults using them to circumvent internet bans and not kids www.stuff.co.nz/politics/361... I think social media is a blight on kids, but theyre going about this the wrong way #nzpol

Nigel #Farage says he wants the people of #Clacton to judge his actions, but we actually have "the law" to do that. #Reform

The #BBC is currently platforming an almighty #whinge from #Farage on live tv. Pull the plug! He should not get this sort of platform to simply COMPLAIN. This is absurd television. What a bunch of dross. Take him off the air, record his whinge, put anything of actual note in a 1 min news story.

#Farage is having a right old whinge, isn't he? What a piss weak wafer thin greedy little shit he is.

These things are always done in the name of 'protecting children', but are never about protecting children www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Kbt... #vpn #ukpol #palantir The manipulation of the public is wholesale. You shouldn't need an ID to vote. You shouldn't need an ID to go on the internet.

You can't criminalise homelessness, even the police think so. #luxon and his #govt are out of touch with reality, but also what it means to be a person. How can he call himself #christian and be so bereft of compassion? #nzpol www.stuff.co.nz/politics/361... what would #jesus do?

If you're not outraged, you should be

Comparing the UK heatwaves of June 1976 and June 2026... Daytime maximum & night minimum temperatures were much hotter in 2026. Details: maxima over 21st-30th June in both years. Uses provisional 2026 HadUK-Grid data from Met Office NCIC. Note the difference scale is larger for night minimums.

#Meta #Facebook #Socialmedia IS a problem for our society. I love when Kiwis stand up and hold truth to power. We should champion our belief in what's right far more. #SarahWynnWilliams book #CarelessPeople is so interesting for how much #Zuckerberg wants to bury it www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgkC...

This is what's arrogant about #England - they think they lost to #NZ rather than were beaten. NZ were better than them, but they panic and throw the baby out with the bathwater because they still think like the empire they are not www.stuff.co.nz/sport/360999... #michaelvaughan #ecb #mccullum

I hate when NZ makes claims like this, it's such a cop out. #nz #nzpol

Have they not done their research on what a menace these are overseas?

its 2026. you cant afford rent, groceries or gas. half of everyone you know got laid off. oligarchs are steamingrolling your rights and melting the planet. but dont worry, democrats have a plan; they'll make your kids use their phones less.

Is it any surprise they don't understand what punk rock is?

Note to #theoffspring: Just play your damn songs and STFU!

It should be illegal to make software that was previously a one-time purchase into a subscription. Imagine you bought a sofa and then 3 years later the shop told you they were going to start charging you £10 a month or else they'll take your sofa, that you already paid for, away

Gas-fueled cars are doomed. The UK now sells more EVs than gas fueled cars. The same is increasingly true across Europe.
