Trump: All the boats are at the bottom of the ocean. The US said it launched new strikes on southern Iran, targeting Iranian missile sites and boats. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The way I see it, two things need to happen to save our democracy from Donald Trump: [1] Trump must be IMPEACHED and REMOVED. - Trump has to be held accountable, and not just as a formality. - We also need formal investigations into ALL members of his Executive Branch

May 2026 was an exceptional month for horror movies. Obsession was truly brilliant. One of the best horror movies I have seen in years but the number one slo goes to: Hokum, which was superb. Very very scary.

By the time he was announced as Reform UK's candidate against Andy Burnham in the #Makerfield by-election, Robert Kenyon's previous Reform UK X account had been mysteriously suspended. We found the archive. 419 tweets. Here's what they reveal. 🧵 1/12 bylinetimes.com/2026/05/20/r...

Reducing migration and growing the economy are inherently opposing statements

He's doing this because polls show more people in favour of Mahmoodism than against. And from a purely political POV (leaving aside morality and, yknow, thinking) that sounds sensible. But it isn't. It's spineless and moronic. Quick thread >

This is a shocking indictment of the abject failure of UK news shows to get the actual facts about net migration across to the public and call out the bull**** by the likes of Nigel Farage. If UK news shows can’t get the job done let’s damn well do it ourselves!

Oh that’s fine then.

Tennessee Brando on Trump voters waking up: "I'm glad they're speaking out, but I can't give them a full pass. If you got duped the first go around in 2016, that's one thing ... but if you lived through Jan 6th and you still hung with him ... then, I mean, you're the reason we're here."

NEW: The judge has weighed in on the $1.7 slush fund. I promised an update when she did. Please share widely.

I gave a speech in Trafalgar Square a couple of weeks ago on why I think democratic change starts at the top. Feel free to tell me if you disagree because it's bluesky not twitter. youtu.be/I43nbY9tX0c?...

Yeah, that's the message. Go with that, you insufferable Christian Nationalist pustule.

The answer is obvious. The UK has produced many of the world’s greatest bands. Eurovision is not about music. Not any sort of music I would recognise. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is what a Labour government should have done beginning two years ago. The renationalising of the trains that blue Labour has commenced looks like a half measure that will satisfy no one other than the private owners of the rolling stock. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

We don’t need a “special relationship” with the EU. We need the same relationship every other EU member state enjoys. We need to rejoin and play our part as a good member working to improve the lives of all EU citizens.

Jeremy Corbyn on Sky News, "There is no antisemitic undercurrents on this march" "There are a very large number of Jewish people on this march as well. Jewish people who want to see peace and want to see respect for the Palestinian people" "Criticism of Israel is not antisemitic"

There is a fairly simple explanation. 1. There is no functioning justice system in the US. 2. There is a disproportionate volume of people in the US with incredibly low intelligence. 3. The civil war never ended.

Starmer's leadership has been marked by trying not to upset Brexit voters – on Brexit itself, on immigration, on nastier manifestations of anti-immigration sentiment... perhaps even on Trump. The next Labour leader needs to stop/reverse all of that. Fire Mahmood as Home Secretary for starters.

And some weapons will still vote Reform in the forthcoming by-elections because forrins and that.

Lets send Nigel Farage a message in Makerfield that we’ve had enough of his bull****

The opportunity in the kings speech to reset our relationship with Europe now cannot be lost - but that means ripping up the red lines on the single market, customs union and freedom of movement that will keep holding us back. www.labourmovementforeurope.uk/redlines?spl...

This is what should have appeared in the Kings speech today. But no, this was what Starmer promised while seeking election.

Here's a radical thought Why doesn't the Labour Party follow the programme for government set out by Starmer when he stood to be their leader Public ownership, taxing the rich, abolition of tuition fees, etc etc Sounds pretty good www.clpd.org.uk/resource/kei...

As Lucy Connolly tweets then deletes a post about Keir Starmer, it's good to see that she has learned her lesson about irresponsible social media posts having consequences.

🚨 NEW: Tony Blair's daughter-in-law has just been appointed managing partner of a new UK sovereign AI Fund. Nothing to see here?

Streeting will be in the back benches by September.

Some Tory MP says unchallenged on the BBC that "the welfare bill is spiralling out of control" Here's that 'spiralling' in full - steady for the last 20 years

Jess Philips resignation letter.

Tory ➡️ Reform If you call a leopard a pussycat it will still eat your face, given half a chance.

…..and this “last chance” must not involve Wes Streeting. It should be Starmer bearing left at speed. Burnham or Rayner can wait another year to eighteen months. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

If Labour is going to spend the next few months arguing about who should be PM, they should at least agree on one thing: these damaging red lines on Europe have to go. A customs union is vital to grow our economy and to tackle the cost-of-living crisis.

If they’re truly serious about moving into Number 10, Burnham, Streeting and Rayner must do what Starmer won’t: fix our broken relationship with Europe and deliver the growth Britain needs.

Unadulterated tripe.

The British Electorate: 2024, The Tories were so shit we would have voted for a traffic bollard to knock them out. 2026, let’s vote for a party largely made up of ex Tory cabinet members.

People are worried about the midterms after the disappointment in Virginia. GOOD, you should be worried!

David Garrett is part of the pioneering group that created the Trump Epstein Reading Room to show the magnitude of the Epstein Files, as currently produced by the Trump DOJ. He joins me to explain how the exhibition came to be & why it’s an important step towards justice. youtu.be/CHxJNs6CQV4?...

I think Labour are way beyond a much needed boost. Starmer, Morgan McSweeney and Shabana Mahmood, coupled with the privatisation and Palantir links of the NHS steered and supported by Streeting have petty much consigned the Labour Party to electoral oblivion. Are they actually working for Reform?

I can smell Farages halitosis from here and I haven’t even turned the TV on yet.

Anyone voting Reform in today’s local elections must have be absolutely zero awareness of 1. Their track record in local government. It is appalling 2. The quantity of “councillors” who simply quit 3. The fact that Farage is hugely responsible for much of the shit we are currently experiencing

1% of the UK Jewish population are in the IDF. Imagine if 1% of the Moslem population were committing genocide in a foreign army. The hypocrisy is staggering.

More Jews are marching on pro-Palestinian marches pro rata than any other community. Stop calling opposition to genocide hatred. Listen to the esteemed Rabbi Herschel Gluck, president of the Shomrin in North East London.

When you see the relentless attacks from other parties on the Greens across the media remember this: They hate our plan to end Rip Off Britain. They don't want a wealth tax. They don't want public ownership & lower bills. They're trying everything in their power to stop us.

We must stand in solidarity with Jews being attacked by antisemitic criminals and terrorists: no ifs or buts. We must stand in solidarity with Palestinians being murdered by the Israeli government: no ifs or buts. These are not contradictory positions. They are consistent ones. 🧵1/5
