Which one of the tech bros will start to harvest humans first? My money is on Zuckerberg, evil cunt.

Chaos in Washington The new Private Eye is out now.

I mean it’s not a vetting problem, is it? It’s that it’s a racist party, run by racists, with racist policies, for the benefit of racists. The fact that it turns out to be full of racists is not a glitch

Rage replying when you've had long Island iced tea may not be wise.

Just wondering where and when are the riots over this White Paedophile Gang, just convicted? Did I not get the memo? Did I miss the Invite?

Abstinence makes the church grow fondlers.

never the wrong time for this classic

Meta should be banned from every country

Everything that's wrong with our nation. Everything that's broken. Everything that's corrupted. Started with her.

President Macron, "Brexit has cost the UK 8% of GDP.. Brexit is the biggest lie of the last 30 years" My view: Brexit was sold as a route to greater prosperity: less bureaucracy, more money, new trade opportunities Instead, Britain put new barriers between itself and its largest trading market.

Until every member of society makes it their business to defend the rights of every other member of society, no society will be safe from these encroachments [on human rights]. - Heather Marsh

Things that aren't patriotic: - Racism - Moving abroad for tax purposes Things that are patriotic: - A love and sense of duty to your country, including paying taxes that contribute to it

I’ll say again - half of all Briton’s don’t fly and 10% of us take half of all flights - cheap flights are not for hard up ordinary people, they definitely are not an essential. VAT has just been taken off energy bills (which are an essential) we should pay for that with VAT on flying.

My brain hurts.....

It’s not too late to stop this madness - the government has said the uk mega donors are a problem. The lords can bring in a cap on UK donors to stop any attempt to buy the next election. Share this and ask your MP to join us protecting British democracy.

What's wrong with Britain? When a country thinks people who love the environment and trying to protect it are a menace and blackshirts in balaclavas are legitimate protesters, then we are lost.

The ability of the richest & most powerful men in the world to position themselves against "the elite" - a category that excludes the world's richest man, its biggest media magnates, the UK's richest party & the biggest donors in UK history - may be the most effective lie in modern political history

A reminder that Delo previously pled guilty in the US to violating money laundering protections and agreed to pay a $10 million fine for "willfully” breaking the law with his BitMex platform, which was described as "in effect a money laundering platform.” This is who owns Farage now

Charles (king) could do something useful for once and do a high profile visit to the RNLI right this minute

Bill Bryson’s words seem appropriate to post right now

The RNLI’s volunteers head out in any conditions. They don’t question who. They save strangers at sea. People, helping people. Your Christmas shop can help support people who’ll drop everything to save people. shop.rnli.org

1. Elon Musk is spending millions pushing Americans to VoteSafe, which bills itself as a voter registration site but is actually a digital surveillance machine.

This is not a 'masculinity crisis', it's a misogyny crisis. This is not a problem with 'masculinity'-- millions of men model positive masculinity every day. This is a problem of male violence. Stop calling it 'masculinity'. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

"I did not inhale".

Nigel Farage resigns when he shouldn't, but doesn't resign when he should.

"We've done nothing wrong but the people who did it have been sacked for (not) doing it," is quite the defence. And is it just me or Does. Farage. Get. Even. More. Comically. Staccato when he's straining his own enormous capacity for lying?

This is why we need to Ban All Donations to political parties. We can continue to play ‘whackamole’ with the rules, with our temporary bans on Crypto and bans of foreign donors - but we can’t prevent determined rule breaking.

We should have learned from Brexit; if you treat the propaganda and troll networks as a speech issue rather than a coercive and realtime security threat then the manipulation of the population will never end. Running factchecks isn’t enough; halting propaganda mills needs action.

I’ll raise you this Facebook/Meta advert from last week that offered the chance to tell an AI child exactly what to do and she’d do it!

Fossil fuel demand is still growing — but solar and wind are growing faster. EVs are surging as oil prices spike. The transition is happening. The question is whether we accelerate it fast enough to avoid the worst. Speed matters. #EnergyTransition #CleanEnergy

Why the f**k do we not classify the social media companies as “publishers”? They would then be subject to the existing law that makes a publisher responsible for what it publishes. It should not make any difference that what the social media companies publish is digital rather than ink on paper

So the ultra-rich will continue to own our politics, and our country. Disappointing to say the least. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

IPSO has the power to investigate its own members' standards. It has never used it. Membership is voluntary. Use the power, lose the members. Professor Paul Wragg on the regulator that cannot afford to regulate: www.hackedoff.org/blog-posts/p...

He was right about ULEZ He’s right about Brexit. No need to “revisit old arguments”/lies now we know it’s rubbish and costing us a fortune. Moving on means admitting this and asking about how to now join. Not pretending it’s ok in case Farage loses his shit. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/sad...

One of the first "outrageous" claims I saw as Jason Arday's media hounding unfolded was that he ran 30 marathons in 35 days! Wow! What a thing to claim! And the newspapers all suggested there was no evidence he actually did it. Well, they clearly didn't look very hard 🙄 🧵 1/26

Many centuries ago, people would boil down cattle hide, pig bones, fish scales and chicken gristle to make a paste that women would smear onto their faces, believing it contained the elixir of eternal youth. Oh sorry - that’s TODAY! Watch out for the collagen peddlers!

Rather than arguing over who was most responsible for Jason Arday's tragic death, I hope the organisations involved examine their own practices – and ask hard questions about race, proportionality, accountability and the human consequences of their actions. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
