Why do Brits keep talking about our special relationship with US? There is no special relationship other than we keep telling them how wonderful they are. There is a major unbalance of power in whatever we ‘relationship’ this is. Never a good thing.

Was just explaining this to someone at Labour’s conference - Crown Estate owns the coast and seabed and charges for the use of it for green energy projects - pushing up energy bills.

I question how “unpopular” these opinions really are. I would add that I hate how tech bros have used technology to *constantly* try to sell me things I don’t want. I’m always being hectored to either subscribe, upgrade, or purchase.

Why haven’t we heard from Trumps peace committee during this war with Iran or the war between Israel and Gaza. In fact, why haven’t we heard from them at all since their photo op inauguration? Surely the whole thing wasn’t a grift, I mean, it wouldn’t be, surely not.

Orr’s wife, an Anglican vicar, launched an online crowdfunding campaign to raise £500,000 to turn the gateway building into “a café, gallery and Fellow’s Hub” – offering “tax-friendly options for those who would like to donate from abroad or give substantially larger amounts”

Orr’s Cambridge University position, he said, was central to this. He had met “hundreds” of Cambridge students he considered suitable allies, and his job at Reform was to work out how those students could be “recruited into the party at scale”. bylinetimes.com/2026/07/09/p...

This is so sinister

Josiah Mortimer@josiahmortimer.bsky.social

A six-month investigation by Byline Times reveals that with the support of Palantir's Peter Thiel, Reform's policy chief James Orr has used the University of Cambridge as a student recruitment ground for a hard-right, theocratic political project aimed at bolstering talent in Farage’s party

That anyone would support Nigel Farage and Reform with these policies must surely be a damning indictment of UK media in failing to explain the implications of them to the public

Peter Stefanovic@peterstefanovic.bsky.social

Its a shocking indictment of UK media that people don’t understand what Farage’s policies will inflict on the country - if they did support would quickly melt away youtu.be/KxOQRt8PQys?...

The reason Richard Tice refused to condemn a Reform candidate saying we should "Melt Nigerians to fill potholes" is that he thinks it's a perfectly reasonable thing to say.

Yes. Stop Farage. Stop Reform. Stop the corruption. Stop the racism. Stop the misogyny. Stop the hatred. Stop the cruelty. Stop the incompetence. Stop the division. Stop the threats. Stop the fascism. Stop the failure. Just, ffs, stop him.

”There is a particular kind of audacity required to spend decades dismantling something, then point to the rubble and declare it someone else’s fault. Nigel Farage has that audacity in spades. He has built an entire political career on it.”

Caroline Lucas: "The taboo around the word 'membership' has been maintained not by principle but timidity. Farage built his project on lies. The least we can do is have the courage to tell the truth about what those lies have cost us in our classrooms, training colleges and concert halls..."

🧼 Kicked out of his suite for room service to come in. 👀 Waiting for me for his little routine. Look how he judges the step and knows the sounds to get around. 🍣 He even knows where the smoked salmon and poached chicken is. A new bandana on and away we go 🙏
