Fascinating, Zelensky coming out publicly more and more and saying that Trump is working with/for Putin. The Ukrainians seem to have determined that telling the truth is preferable to lying to please Trump.

Life under Trump youtu.be/8vgDpI8kU98?...

it is very important to remember that the confederates were both traitors and big stupid losers who got their asses kicked

Nuremberg 2.0. go nurembrrrrrrrrr

Another one who thinks the response to a global shortage of something which makes it more expensive is to subsidise people to buy more of it. Truly British politics is blessed with genius.

Chinese diplomats from Tokyo to Astana are going to be walking around with copies of this. "We've had our differences, but you know who wouldn't absolutely fuck over your economy for no clear reason, having given you no warning to so much as stockpile... and then gloat about it?"

Exactly this 🚨 "Only renewables will bring lower bills and higher energy security." https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/apr/09/ed-miliband-north-sea-oil-drilling-nigel-farage-labour-reform-fossil-fuels-renewables

He wants lives of poverty, desperation, sadness and disappointment for tens of millions of British people.

Robert Jenrick is, quite simply, a monster.

Man who had cartoon murals painted over to stop child asylum seekers from having a pleasant environment now want to stop poor British kids from going to the zoo. The pure cruelty of the man in pursuit of his own unworthy personal ambitions is just staggering.

Yes, the overriding feature of the rule of the Mad King is that all of the people who COULD stop him, don't want to. The reasons for that will be studied for generations to come.

This is a crucial report, shining a spotlight on the funding links between Russia, Hungary and the British mainstream right

NATO didn’t fail the United States, it stood with it when it mattered most. Today, that loyalty is being repaid with distortion. Trump blames NATO for Iran… deflection, or part of a much bigger play? open.substack.com/pub/shaunpin...

Peace talks latest From the latest Private Eye, out now.

Simon Schama called Trump out as a fascist over 10 (ten) years ago, his actions since only reinforce the conclusion.

Really important to keep sucking up to Trump in the hopes that he briefly hesitates before failing to honor Article V.

There was once a point where you could justify this kind of Theon Greyjoy bullshit. But it's now clear what it is: the tacit support of genocidal rhetoric, which serves to encourage, not obstruct, his actions.

It has been a long month at the Daily Mail

Any movement on this front given the recent posts from the monster they've elected?

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk: Victor Orbán’s minister offered Sergey Lavrov to send him EU documents through the Hungarian embassy in Moscow. It’s really beyond shocking.

Laughter and tears, no one is allowing Bondi to walk. #resist #Epstein

Nothing says "back" like "we can't get our enemy or our ally to abide by the terms of a ceasefire we desperately tried to hype up as a win for everyone"

when i think about "peak" Twitter, I think of this post

From The Krankies autobiography, the time that Ian snapped and attacked Paul Daniels.

“This is a trans-national effort, funded by Russian oil, to replace Western liberalism with a pro-Russian ideology... Orbán is not just the puppet that gives this packaged ideology a European face... he oversees the money laundering vehicles to fund the larger network” emptywheel.net/2026/04/07/p...

NEW: Trump accepted $37m worth of donated steel for his WH ballroom project from the Luxembourg-based company ArcelorMittal. Days later, the WH made adjustments to Trump's tariffs that could benefit ArcelorMittal.

Catastrophically wrong and unforgivably dishonest about Brexit. Catastrophically wrong and unforgivably sycophantic about Trump. All the same dismal people. Doing such long-term harm. Let’s never give them our time or our votes again.

Must be performance art

Rupert Lowe’s Restore Britain has been attracting more and more extreme figures, including fascists and ethnonationalists. Why do these people see Lowe as their man? And why has Lowe refused to disavow them? hopenothate.org.uk/2026/04/08/t...

If I was Iran I'd set up a website counter tracking how much money was coming in from tolls with a large "THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP" next to the total and maybe a couple of Ayatollahs doing thumbs up.

Do big companies still monitor social media?

say what you want about South Korea, at least THEY got their president impeached and thrown in prison for trying to do some bullshit

Very frustrated by my attempts to get a Power Pack V2G bundle (car and charger) from @octopus.energy . They took a sizable wedge from my account three weeks ago, but I have no idea when a car might arrive or a charger will be installed. No one answers emails or the phone @simonread.bsky.social

Racist party accused of racism, how did that happen?

To add: Johnson & Truss were ousted by the cabinet. It matters, constitutionally, that ministers are mostly MPs with seats to defend, whose careers can continue after a PM goes. The Farage plan - to appoint a presidential cabinet from outside Parlt, dependent only on him - would weaken that check.

She’s right

Trump may not carry out the threat. But the fact he even made such a threat means he should immediately be removed from office. For that is the purpose of a constitution with checks and balances.

'Quietly': the new 'not'.

in a stunning victory, Donald Trump has forced the Iranian government to profit tens of billions of dollars a year against their will
