he was hell to work with and that’s why they only made the show with him for 16 years

Whether getting some last-minute shopping or catching up with friends, hospitality and retail workers are crucial to Christmas. But the majority of those workers are on exploitative wages and conditions. We're calling for all workers to get a fair wage this Christmas.

for the 5th year in a row we’ve got a card addressed to the previous residents and it makes me wonder who is sending christmas cards to people they clearly haven’t spoken to in at least 5 years

do we think someone had to stop them polling ‘gay son or thot daughter’

Fallout season 2 episode 1: it’s New Vegas do you get it we’re doing New Vegas this time

i’ve learned this is also how English people feel about us calling everything ‘juice’

presumably this is what whoever leaked it wanted, so will be interesting to see who’s the replacement candidate in that constituency and (probably more importantly) who gets bumped up the list

Man every where you went all day every day, “sorry for being white.” Glad that’s over.

if Eva Braun hadn’t choked down a cyanide pill i think she’d have had a better shot at being taken seriously as a sympathetic widow than Erika Kirk has managed

they should change TRNSMT into a trans benefit concert, partially because it’s a good thing to do and they have a good name for it already, but also because then maybe they could get a decent lineup for once

i read something about this being a super common phenomenon, because café owners tend to drive to their own businesses they overestimate how many of their customers do too

Surprisingly, it turns out that Nazi Germany-style daily reports on The Crimes Of The Untermenschen Against The Herrenvolk are not making Britain less hateful or deranged

the stack of burnable CDs really makes this

what’s the longest a PM has lasted after ‘when will he resign’ became a standing question at every government press conference

'I mean, it's on Thursday, that seems pretty safe - oh, you meant ... no more to say, have a lovely Christmas'

it’s extremely funny the smoking ban covers crack

wow imagine if a small number of vindictive bastards used lawsuits to make life harder for a random group of people! imagine if some of them even built their entire careers out of doing that!

i watched Love Actually for the first time last night, and i’m sorry but that secretary absolutely deserved the gold necklace for being able to *three weeks before Christmas* find a large venue for an office Christmas party taking place *a week before Christmas*

to be fair here the whole country is pretty united on Starmer

it’s a shame for the publisher that these stores came to light after they’d sold so many of his books, and not say, years before they would have first approached him

is the actual position of the EU that they can win a war against Russia but not a court case

hmm… hard to say on this one

seems off for the police to just straight up say they’re planning on arresting people for something they know isn’t a crime

do you think the extremely online half of the Republican Party had to explain to the other half that yes, there is a tribute song called We Are Charlie Kirk that’s popular with the kids and that no, if anything it’s done irreparable damage to his posthumous reputation

the poster makes it look like they’re protesting the creation of human-mouse hybrids lmao

Teams has a button that will summarise your meetings in the form of a cheery podcast hosted by two Americans

normal boring anarchist caveats apply but i now have a general secretary who has, amongst other things, promised to not implement the recent supreme court judgement. whereas christina mcanea's immediate reaction was to remove all available trans guidance and refuse to speak to us. bye bitch.

If Labour don't act, they'll have blood on their hands. David Lammy must urgently let an ambulance into HMP Bronzefield before it's too late.

‘Devolution inevitably fuels the rise of nationalist parties’ is a take that removes a lot of agency from the Labour, Conservative, and Liberal Democrat parties

once we’re past this tipping point (the majority of voters seeing another party as the best one to stop Reform) Labour have no electoral strategy at all

Trump Writes Netanyahu Strongly Worded Check

it’s very funny that the high point of Keir Starmer’s premiership so far is ‘remembering to bring a jacket to watch the olympics’

Does Free Bus Travel to Hampden Park with your event ticket sound like a good idea? We think so! 🛣️ Less congestion 🚗 Less parking chaos 🌳 Better for our climate 💃Better for Mount Florida Sign our call to the @scottish here: greens.scot/hampdenbuses

Labour’s vote in Scotland “only” fell to 24% from 42% between the 2010 and 2015 UK General Elections

Reform are the party of the super rich, polluters and landlords. Greens will oppose any attempt to roll back the rights of renters.

Dispiriting, if that's the phase, to see Holyrood's Equalities Committee voting down amendments which would give children the legal right to withdraw from religious observance - mobilising amongst other arguments, claims that it'd cost too much(!) Kids have Article 9 rights too.

Adam Curtis B-roll

admittedly not the world’s biggest movie buff but i didn’t know even two of these films shared a director let alone all of them

would have said Disco Elysium at the time, but Outer Wilds is the one i’d chose today if i could pick a game to experience for the first time again

extremely depressing and unfortunately not surprising at this point how much of the response to the Bondi Beach mass shooting has been in terms of how do defend the state of Israel and not how to protect the lives of Jewish people

don’t worry Ian, they’ll come crawling back when you’re the only Labour MP in Scotland again post-2029

I'm on my way to a Chanukah event. It should be a celebration but instead our community is once again mourning. I will be thinking of everyone in Australia and those around the world in the Jewish Community who know this fear and loss. We stand with you.

My heart goes out to the Australian Jewish community this morning. Hanukkah should be a time of celebration, of bringing light into the world. In the face of this atrocity we offer our love, solidarity and prayers to our Jewish friends in Australia, Scotland and across the world.

there’s that famous BBC left-wing bias again

all this tells me is that you don’t have any friends, family, or colleagues who are migrants who don’t have ILR or citizenship, or who are trans

He’s laundered a genocide. He demonises desperate people seeking asylum. He panders to Reform at the expense of people of colour. He’s implementing transphobic policies. He cuts benefits for disabled people. “Inoffensive”? He’s deeply offensive if you are affected by any of this (Lewis isn’t)

yikes

do we still do Darwin Awards

the Greens winning Edinburgh South would be the funniest thing to have ever happened in Scottish political history
