@sianushka.bsky.social might be worth taking a fresh look at the abuse of EU funds to finance UK polls in the runup to Brexit that directly benefitted Farage’s UKIP via the ‘Institute of Direct Democracy in Europe’ that IIRC was led by Farage’s current partner/then mistress.

@hignfy.bsky.social 2027 GCSE math questions: 1. How many £40 bottles of Nigel Farage’s favoured Piper-Heidsieck champagne are needed to turn 70,000 pints of Guinness into Black Velvet (1:1 ratio) 2. How many Reform/JL Partner polls would donors have to pay to equal the cost of champagne needed?

Yes. If you don't want people speaking badly of you after you die, then don't do the things that make people think badly of you when you're alive.

@ledbydonkeys.org The People of the United Kingdom call upon your service and unleash your creativity exposing Farage’s grifting and dodgy dealings, and assign his false victimhood narrative to the bin, where utter trash belongs..

Just a reminder that from tomorrow EU #petpassports for #dogs and #cats resident in the UK won't be valid. You'll need a UK animal health certificate costing typically between £100 and £350. The rules are complicated and time sensitive so familiarise yourself soon! #Brexit www.gov.uk/taking-your-...

Guardian’s John Crace saves us from having to suffer Makersfield QT: “I can’t be a sexist” Kenyon pleaded. He knew this because his mother and sister were women. In RobWorld, to be a sexist you can’t know any women. It’s just that he wouldn’t want to get in a car that either of them were driving.”

This Kenyon fella has rapidly become the village idiot - on a national stage. I wouldn’t want plonker plumber Kenyon to repair my clogged toilet if he was the last plumber on earth.

We have #hedgehogs 🦔 in our garden: last year a mum with 5 hoglets… Two weeks ago I was surprised to spot one eating and drinking in broad daylight; normally they feed under the cover of darkness. The day after I found him in the garden looking unwell. The vet collected him - and today

Reform thugs are just UK J6ers - easily deceived, angry, exploited by populist politicians. Just remove those with past convictions from our communities … May I suggest Rwanda? Chagos? How about exchanging one immigrant for one rioter with previous? Give each 1 an ankle tag for 120 months per riot

In a detail which will surprise no one, the first of the "patriots" to plead guilty to offences connected to the rioting in Southampton on Tuesday night has a criminal record as long as your arm, including.... possessing a knife.

the England flags going up for the football don't feel special anymore. It used to look like good craic was afoot when the world cup decorations came out. Now it looks like fascism. you get the flags out when you have a reason. you wouldn't have the christmas tree up all year round!

Awesome. 15MW per wind turbine… London Array (2013) has 3.6MW turbines.. That’s an amazing increase in a relatively short period. Hopefully the technology holds up and the market conditions improve. Would be interesting to see one of these on a Principle Power Windfloat 😍

From Vestas: "The first V236-15.0 MW™ turbine has now been installed at Ecowende's offshore wind farm in the Netherlands."

Turn your rage into kindness 💆🏽‍♀️🫶🏻👏 and show Britain is better than knuckle-dragging thugs. 🌹

5/ It's truly staggering to see how many hits Ukraine has made in St Petersburg - one wonders how Russia's air defence performed so badly. The poor foreign dignitaries can't escape either - Pulkovo airport's been closed for 3 hours now. Here the port is hit - again!

New figures: 2025 was a record year for solar deployment in the UK, as households & businesses respond to the energy crisis by generating their own power. 269,000 solar installations were completed across the UK in 2025, 37% more than the year before, & the highest ever recorded in a calendar year.

Seems like the media has missed the fact the man accused of murder is a founding member of ‘Raise The Colours’. Yet another key member arrested for violent criminality in less than 2 weeks after another member ran somebody over with their van hours before attending the ‘Unite The Kingdom’ march…

It is extremely clear that Reform capped out a year ago at 30% have fumbled their way back down to the low 20s because they cannot be normal and are eminently beatable by whichever of Labour or the Conservatives remembers that the average voter does not have a Klan hood first.

There’s something rotten in the state of the BBC’s political reporting. And unless it’s fixed soon, they will bring the catastrophe of Trump to the UK.

Hi, spider expert here! Kyle Rittenhouse was bitten by a Brown Recluse (loxosceles reclusa). Unlike widow bites, recluse bites don't affect the nervous system. Instead, they are a cytotoxic venom, destroying local tissues at the site of the bite.. So how bad could this get? Well...

In the podcast I listened to on this, the cat used the buttons for complex negotiations and discussions about fear and grief and love - and in one case, outright lying. The dog used the buttons to say “Friend! Friend! Friend! Friend! Friend! Friend! Friend! OUTSIDE!”

After repeatedly telling us that London is a crime-infested hellhole in which literally everyone gets their phone swiped, the Conservatives are refusing to believe that a man using his phone on a central London street at 10.30pm might have had it swiped.

NEW: This new report, from BBC, is the best takedown of the insanity of Trump you will see anywhere. Calm, coherent and repeating only Trump’s own words. Devastating. Brilliant work once again from Roz Atkins. (🎥 BBC News)
