This speech is such an extraordinary combination of lies, delusions, narcissism, hatefulness, ignorance and lunacy that it could have been given by no other person than the president of the United States. It could well be the low point of US public diplomacy in our history.

This is the thanks we get for lavishing him with a full state visit - more racist lies and smears about our capital city and its mayor. I assume the condemnation from Starmer will be coming any moment now?

Telling a bunch of foreign leaders you might kidnap and disappear their citizens AT THE U FUCKING N is wild

Incredible moxie this guy

Motasem A Dalloul reminds us that the devastation Palestinians are enduring in Gaza—the violence they are surviving and dying from at the hands of the Israeli government—is as tangible, relentless, and catastrophic as ever.

A deeply touching story and reminder of Gil Scott's greatness. Also a reminder that there was a time when Kanye West was well. www.theguardian.com/music/2011/j...

It is up to ordinary citizens in the West to do all we can to stop one of history’s great crimes. Italian workers have shown all of us how it can be done.

Absolutely horrific scenes in Gaza on Al Jazeera this morning. How does it all carry on in front of our eyes? How can we believe in anything after this? I have been at a complete loss for some years now

The real figure… number of Palestinian murders in Gaza committed by Israel

Europe’s richest man opposes wealth tax. Estimated to have wealth of $169bn (£125bn), resents paying extra €1bn (£817m). Would it make any material difference to his lifestyle? How does anyone get this rich without squeezing labour, customers? Wealth opens doors to unaccountable political power.

Best thing that ever happened on Jools Holland aside from Mark E Smith going " alright cunty " to Robert Plant in the corridor www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewFT...

Let’s give it up for this rude boy. They take him for granted but god damn

Strong post day

A mass exodus from X and Meta products would be a big plus for humanity right about now.

As usual not been on here for a while, been quite busy with life. Anyhow, I'm back on Mixcloud and if you love old reggae music then here's an hour and a bit of some of my fave 1970s reggae 45s (and a couple of LP tracks). www.mixcloud.com/gordy-robert... Big Up All My Listeners!

Trump " I don't know him " with regards to Mandelson. You've got to just bow down to Don's weapons grade hubris sometimes.

" Ironically, the country that we’re told is the ultimate target of antisemitism is now, in reality, the world’s most powerful cause of antisemitism "

The language the BBC etc seem obligated to parrot is becoming more and more farcical by the week. No one believes this shit any more.

Stop selling arms to Israel then.

Here we see the post Brexit phenomenon of people being extremely racist, but somehow simultaneously asserting they're incapable of such a thing. These people are not that stupid. They've always been racists, and they feel amboldened. 10 years ago they'd keep this between themselves in the boozer

Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, UN probe finds

I find these two men (particularly these two) telling us their approved version of parenting - deeply sinister. I hope their christofascist, MAGA-flavoured manoeuvrings backfire so dramatically, in our secular, progressive country, that they rue the day they decided to tell us how to live our lives.

Ricky Trooper pulling out the heavy Kilimanjaro/Channel 1 dubs - Kingston Dub Club 2023. This was a very sad evening as Ricky had just found out his daughter had been killed due to domestic violence but he still kept his commitment and said he needed the music to carry him through his grief 🙏

Thinking this morning about what good fun The Fall were. Mark E Smith doesn't get enough credit for how whimsical he was because he was so good at malevolence too. Also massive fan of when he cracks himself up whilst performing- best examples are British People In Hot Weather and Dr Bucks Letter

I lived across the street from Derek's place on Downs Rd for a few years while I worked at Honest Jons and ferried old tapes and cd's from Karen his partner to the shop for the many releases they did. Was always a bit sad knowing artists like them can't really exist in London any more

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

No wonder Musk is impressed, the London march stretched all the way to the Arc de Triomphe

At least someone's reporting what they saw yesterday. Instead of people tip toeing around a piss up where the main speakers were Laurence Fox, Katie Hopkins and that one other ignorant cretin.

The discourse is all around deradicalising young men and the crisis among young men. The discourse would be much better targeted if it was about deradicalising boomers (and increasingly Gen Xers).

In cases of prolonged exposure to Laura Kuenssberg on Sunday mornings administer 4 doses of Studio One immediately

This woman calling @lbc.co.uk yesterday about Charlie Kirk and “free speech” was brilliant. Vanessa Feltz flummoxed.

Musk is more extreme than Powell’s Rivers of Blood speech in addressing citizens, not just government policy "Whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming for you ... fight back or die" legitimises violence (against government, police, asylum seekers, minorities) bsky.app/profile/pale...

the future of tech is sociopaths chasing engagement clicks with zero ethical considerations at impossible scale

"'Netanyahu’s ongoing war of aggression needlessly puts our own hostages in danger and has wreaked havoc on... Israeli society, while at the same time killing, maiming and starving an entire population' of civilians in Gaza, Max Kresch, a member of [the Israeli group Soldiers for Hostages] said..."

Meanwhile unspeakable acts of violence and terror continue unabated
