Gotta hand it to Zel. Perfect riposte, impeccable comic timing.

Football what a game

I'm so disillusioned, I almost don't even care who gets the FIFA Peace Prize next year

And on it goes

What a time to be alive

Mess with Belgians at your peril

Really makes you wanna love America doesn't it

Seriously

Saw this ad for a goat on Facebook. It’s perhaps the greatest advert I’ve ever read. It’s just superb.

Says the Telegraph on er BlueSky 😊

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios

++BREAKING++ Leading climate scientists in the UK have written to senior editors in broadcast media - and OFCOM and IPSO: "To express our concern about recent media coverage of extreme weather, climate change and net-zero and to urge you…to inform public audiences of the scientific links"

To mark the launch, The Guardian publishes an article based on our latest data on the rise of far-right parties across Europe: www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This is a terrific read

PSA if you're in France and plagued by spam calls: I cannot recommend highly enough an app called saracroche. It has 16m dodgy numbers in its constantly updated database and it *just blocks them*. It's spared me an average of six spam calls a day since I installed it. Brilliant.

This is no way to run a world

How about a new campaign: GASLIT Graduates Against Student Loan Interest Terms I think it could get a lot of traction. Graduates have been screwed over immensely, more than once, with next to no notice...

This was indeed a whole big lot of *fun*! Thanks so much to all who came. We will do it again after the summer!

Well that was fun Paris Bluesky!

He is so damn good at this politics lark

The UK still hell-bent on tcherry-picking? Surely not @nialloconghaile.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

They stole the internet’s knowledge and all the work that went into it and they want to sell it back to us for a fee. What a business model.

I wrote this more than 7 years ago. "Nobody is listening" - SMEs on having to leave country to continue doing business with the EU. Anyone you know who left the country like this SME? please pass on if you know of anyone My email: [email protected] www.theguardian.com/politics/201...

Troll account

My street now

This is now my ambition

This kind of EU bullshit is always around. Bardella's message here sounds like that from his friends at the FPÖ:

By luck I’m in Paris on 4 June so will go to whatever we’re supposed to call a Bluesky meetup. Tweetup was a good name. Anyway whatever it is I’ll be at this for at least part of it 🙂

Far from a shoo-in for Burnham

A reminder that this *wildly unmissable event* is happening soon - if you fancy it and you haven't already said so, do please DM me or @columnist.bsky.social or @stevenhseggie.bsky.social or @donnad.eurosky.social !

To be absolutely clear: there is no excuse for you to continue posting on X. None. You are doing it out of convenience, maybe habit, because you don‘t want to give up your followers. “If we all leave, it’s going to be worse” stopped making sense a long time ago.

Stop feeding the troll! This account knows very well they're spouting total bollox and keeps doing it purely because it amuses them to wind us all up.
