absolutely disgusting to shamelessly gloat about vibecoding your product as you're charging ahead to devalue an entire industry and several art forms with copious amounts of AI confetti hyperslop, depriving real artists and developers of oxygen

This story is a perfect example of how broken reporting of the mobs roaming Britain's streets now is - and the political response. What would have been the appropriate response if this hadn't been a sports team? Trash the hotel? Force them out into the street? What about other people staying there?

And now time for that uniquely British summer tradition: where we castigate ourselves, our education system and most of all our young people for going on to be better educated than ever before.

If Mahmood does become Chancellor it will interesting to see if her views on immigration change when she's responsible for the economic consequences....

Condemning riots isn't enough. We need policy action, including an immediate appraisal of X as a vehicle for coordinating far-right disorder. And we need political leadership, to challenge white nationalism as an idea, not to validate it daily and then complain when it turns violent.

They lied about it. They misrepresented anecdotes, cherry-picked bad behaviour from unrepresentative individuals and whipped up a moral panic about a free speech crisis. The right invented McCarthyism: they invent whatever excuses they need

I really think it's important to constantly emphasise that Farage wants to help the Taliban murder and torture people.

2000 years ago: the Romans would let an aqueduct destroy the Gardon Valley. We need clean water, but at what cost?

Men are extremely keen to explain to me that Britain *needs* a domestic steel production plant and doesn't necessarily *need* universities. Okay. Steel contributed about £1.7bn to the UK economy in 2024. Universities contributed more than £200bn.

The Green Party don’t get as much media coverage as Reform because the continuation of civilised human life on the planet isn’t as interesting as cunts.

Feels like ‘the world’ is thanking the creative industries for entertaining them through the pandemic by hollowing them out The TV & film industry is on its ass. Copyright is being sacrificed at the altar of AI. And the average wage hasn’t gone up in real terms in 15 years across the board.

Consistently abysmal to remember this is happening because a husk of a nepo baby couldn't stand to be shamed by a Black president being cooler than him and found tens of millions of Americans who agreed with him.

VG from @georgemonbiot.bsky.social but as others have said the historical analogy is wrong. Chamberlain wasn't a Nazi fellow-traveller. AfD supporter and far-right propagandist Goodwin is much closer to Oswald Mosley.

“there are Neville Chamberlain’s in every generation” George Monbiot’s takedown of Matt Goodwin and the Reform party is a thing of beauty 👏 #bbcqt
