We’ve been doggedly reporting on Palantir’s contracts with UK state…& this latest one with Met police is both creepy & opaque. Met has used Palantir to spy on its own officers. If it can do this to its own employees…what about the rest of us? By @mc00.bsky.social & @luciaoc.bsky.social

Who looks at these flags on roundabouts and lampposts and feels pride? Far right thugs and racists. And who looks at them with fear and loathing? Everyone else. National flags are being used as Nazi bunting by Reform and the far right. Let’s call this what it is. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

EU critics claim membership damaged the #UKEconomy, but this letter in the @yorkshirepost.co.uk suggests #RejoinEU is the solution, not the problem. With support rising, will it be in the next #UKLabour manifesto? #Rejoin #Brexit #EuropeanUnion

Well exactly. Brexit is a shitshow but, more than that, it’s an epic lie-fest. Farage squats at the epicentre of that political dishonesty and voting for that is voting to be conned, voting for prejudice as policy. It wouldn’t be any old disaster, it’d be a Farage disaster. Ruinous, racist chaos.

He'd be the only person she doesn't think she can deport if she did

And that’s just the top of the rancid pile of bigotry that Reform UK has just introduced into our public institutions. We have a very interesting few years ahead of us, it feels like.

Nourishing afternoon in Nottingham today speaking at the East Midlands European Movement conference. Despite living in Reform curious, heavily 2016 leave voting areas, the attendees are incredible stalwarts of pro-Europeanism and I’m so grateful for all they do and for organising today.

Could MattGPT face scrutiny under the UK’s ‘proceeds of crime’ law? The British right is awash with money from Orban thinktanks…which Hungary’s new PM says was stolen. Brilliant deep dive into Orban’s vast UK network by @McCoolingtons for @thenerve_news. 👏

He's an enemy of liberty and a friend to tyrants.

The authoritarian nationalists treated the Hungarian election as a global moment, and democrats should too, writes @gregsargent.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/2090...

Including many British right-wingers who danced to the Kremlin's tune having heard it played by Orban's orchestra.

Congratulations to our Hungarian friends for making sure their voices are heard and for choosing to get rid of Putins little pal, Orbán.

Hungary has voted for Remain. Britain next, please.

JD Vance is on a historic roll: He campaigns for AfD in Germany - they lose. Invited the Pope to come to US for Trump’s big event - Pope refuses. Leads peace negotiations with Iran - fails miserably. Campaigns in Hungary for Orbán - who gets smoked.

All the worst cunts in the world - from journalism to politics, the Kermlin to the White House - are suffering tonight.

Orban owns the media. He controls the information environment. He rigged the electoral system to make defeat next-to impossible. The govt of the most powerful country on earth tried to bribe Hungarian voters in his favour. It didn't work.

Well Viktor Orban, you conceded your election loss. Most Hungarians are fed up with you. What are you going to do if Tisza has indeed secured a two-thirds majority and reverses all your rotten "reforms"? Screw off to Moscow, you traitor and bootlicker of Putin! #SlavaUkraini! #RestoreDemocracy

Congratulations Hungary. You sent Orban, Putin and Trump the message they needed to hear. And you made even more of a fool of JD Vance than he made of himself. Top work. Thank you.

Orbán controlled 80% of the Hungarian media and still lost. That’s one hell of a beating

Orban is not conceding because he's honourable. He's conceding because his defeat is so comprehensive even he can't pretend he won.

Orban: “Too many people are voting” — the plaint of kleptocratic vote suppressors and gerrymanderers the world over… And yes I am looking at you GOP

Let’s hear the same fuss that was made about Angela Rayner by the media…

I've long said that it is the #GoHomeOffice and Labour have not moved away from the petty and performative cruelty. If anything, it is worse.

With 76% of the British public agreeing that Britain is more divided right now than at the time of the Brexit referendum, the case for rebuilding our relationship has never been more compelling. Help us achieve this by joining European Movement UK: link below.

Has Trump delivered a triple whammy to the far right—killed #Brexit 🪦, saved #Starmer 🛟 & damaged #Farage 🎯? @bradfordtanda.bsky.social ✉️ says no chance of US trade deal to offset losses from leaving the #EuropeanUnion 📉 A more “unpredictable” US makes #EU stability appealing. Time to #RejoinEU? 🇪🇺

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.

Setting aside the reparations debate (complex, not one that we should dismiss) the idea that you ban every citizen of say, Jamaica, because its govt's policies, shows that REFUK isn't a serious party. But the USA shows us that unserious parties can be in govt. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Brexit barriers hurt UK firms, but as Chair @leedsblue67.bsky.social notes in @hulldailymail.co.uk, some want to raise them higher and make things worse. Co-operation with neighbours grows economies. The CBI found EU membership returned £10 for every £1 spent: "A damned good investment!" #RejoinEU

Never forget which side Farage is on. Because it’s definitely not ours. And we mustn’t let him rewrite history to claim that it is. He’s Trump’s boy. Ready to sell us out as soon as he’s required to do so.

Furthermore, the risks of a royal visit to a country run by someone like this are obvious. This is the point where you don't ignore crazy behaviour, you cut off relations. Yes there's a cost, but who seriously thinks there isn't a cost to the current policy of closing your eyes and hoping it ends?

This is a real post (link below for proof) by the President of the world's most powerful country. This isn't funny, or cool, or "talking like normal people". This is an unhinged lunatic that no sane person could want to interact with. No coming back from this. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

Brexit continues to trash British businesses and utter halfwits like Priti Patel and Robert Jenrick are having EU-phobic wetties over an idiotic non-story about marmalade. That’s what you couldn’t make up, Robert. Just how imbecilic our politics has become. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

It would be so refreshing for the UK government to stop talking about a reset with the EU and ACTUALLY DO IT …. “PM says Iran war means UK needs 'closer co-operation' with EU - Sky News”

This week, the Council of the European Union formally authorised the Commission to open negotiations with the UK on two agreements, and agreed to allow the UK to participate in Erasmus+ in 2027. This is a hopeful step, but this is just the beginning.

Apparently, Reform voters “can’t understand why Farage associates with Trump” Oh please. He’s told you. Loud and clear. It’s the money. The power. The cruelty. And the authoritarianism when it all goes tits up.Trump’s been his sugardaddy and role model all along. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

New York’s public hospitals dropped Palantir. It can be done. It's time the NHS did the same. Join us 👇 https://notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-target/stop-palantir-in-the-nhs/?utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=PalantirNHS&utm_medium=social_media

"Watering down" Labour's hostile anti-immigration policies is akin to someone saying they removed most of the rat poison from a cake mix so it is fine to eat. When policies are so thoroughly toxic they need scrapping and the Home Secretary who pushed them needs firing. observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

Some of our #SELFE team were at the #TogetherAlliance march yesterday... Looks like a busy one on the ground!

Half a million people marched through London today. The biggest demonstration against the far right in British history. I was proud to be among them. They will not win. #TogetherAlliance #Politics

I'm one of many people who'd be on this march for Love, Unity & Hope, & against racism & the far-right today if I wasn't so sick, in my case with #ME I can hear the🚁s from my bed Grateful to everyone who's there today💙 #DisabledPeopleAgainstFascism #TogetherAlliance #pwME

Very true of today's London #TogetherAlliance march. Fun, positive, lots of kids - I especially liked Woodcraft Folk @outdoor-learning.bsky.social running a stall for small people to make little placards

Half a million people march against the far right in London. Including me. #TogetherAlliance #NoToFacism #NoToRacism www.theguardian.com/uk-news/live...

Good morning, Paddington sums up yesterday's Together Alliance's march, that everyone and anyone can fit in ☺️ Diversity is a strength that enriches society, celebrate all that is good ☺️ Have a good Sunday 🙏

500,000 choose hope as they take to London streets against the far right www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

There is something deeply sad about someone who starts a sentence with the word ”frankly” and then goes on to whinge like a ten year old that life’s unfair … whitewash … sick to death … usual suspects. Has WhingeUK’s leader run out of steam dredging up the most tired of political cliches?

👏 "In the span of just two days, the most powerful social media company in the world faced a more severe public reckoning than it has in years." "The goal is to force social media companies to redesign their products and do more to protect children online."

@hulldailymail.co.uk letter backs London Mayor #SadiqKhan call for #UKLabour to adopt #RejoinEU policy. Reflects most party member’ opinion & increasingly whole country. Minority still supporting #EuropeanUnion exit complain of #Brexit betrayal – but never show us #Brexit benefits. #BrexitReality

The mad emporer has triggered chaos he cannot control open.substack.com/pub/iandunt/...

Just as we said at the time. Democracy Volunteers sound this dog whistle after most elections to try and increase their relevance. Shame on them. What a waste of police time and taxpayer money.
