Susanna Reid, "Why have you brought up rejoining the European Union?" Andy Burnham, "We have a decade of experience now looking back at Brexit, and I don't think it has played out as people said at the time"

Oh my god @nytpitchbot.bsky.social he did the thing. "Republicans are about to lose the midterms by 12 points. Here's why that's bad news for Democrats."

The Economist indulging in playground insults? Classy.

Telling a woman to shut up when she’s asking about the attack ad you’ve backed calling a pedophilia victim a loser is like a turducken pf misogyny

5 year freeze on wages? It would make George Osborne look like Lady Bountiful. Idiotic policy by an increasingly idiotic and nasty party www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Sigh. Last line of this story "As a proportion of the economy, debt was ​lower than a year earlier, the ONS said."

UK ‘wealth exodus’ was manufactured by the press. The press complaints body IPSO must investigate or step aside. The story started with one study which now admits it has no evidence. Media owned by corporations and the super rich lapped it up, served their economic interest, ideological purpose.

Why is my tax money being spent to defend an already wealthy gulf state which, to my knowledge, we do not have an alliance with?

Just recently had a discussion about how to dress for the victory parade They say “dress for the position you want, not for the one you have,” and the position I want is Moscow

Trump: "Every country that's using windmills has gone bankrupt"

The plot is a golf course that has been derelict since 2017. There are 21 golf clubs within 10 miles. The land has been classed as grey belt. The council has designated the site for housing in its local plan. So, when a plan for 660 homes came to planning committee, it was, of course, DENIED.

So America is on the side of Russia. And Russia is at war with us. No one is saying it but it means America is at war with us.

The idea that rejoining the EU would take the UK a decade is a myth. Finland went from application to full membership in less time than it took us to negotiate and sign a trade deal with India. https://bestforbritain.org/uk-rejoin-eu-single-parliament/

'A Wizard of Earthsea' (just that, not the rest of the trilogy), and it's not even close. Ursula K. Le Guin >>> J.K. Rowling

This country cannot remain allied to a nation that condones public execution for entertainment. I cannot scarcely believe the depths to which the US is sinking.

The creators of any AI, however autonomous they claim it is, should be legally responsible for any damage or law breaking it carries out. Simple.

As usual, surprise, surprise, based on a report by a think tank co-founded and directed by Andrew Haldenby, formerDirector of Studies at Tufton St’s Centre for Policy Studies, previously of the Conservative Research Department.

The BBC is part of the problem...

There is a non-zero probability that not only are we are the only civilization in the galaxy to solve EUV lithography we may be the only civilisation to be reliant enough on semiconductors to necessitate the effort. It truly is technology bordering on science fiction.

The BBC is not a serious news organisation.

Nigel Farage has staked out a pro-Russia pro-disinformation position. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/nigel-...

No, BBC, he has not been arrested over the video of dinghy slashing. He’s been arrested over the dinghy slashing. Words matter.

I realised today that it’s been a long, long time since I’ve heard anyone making the case for safe and legal routes on the broadcast news. The ludicrous idea that irregular migration is somehow the most serious issue facing the country is all you ever hear.

It is very hard to satisfactorily describe just how badly the BBC's journalistic standards have collapsed in recent years. Quite completely fucking useless.

I am so sick and tired of the politics of this country being dominated by a minute number of people illegally crossing the channel. There are so many bigger, and more troublesome, fish to fry. Housing, climate, care, water, transport, defence... All sacrificed at the altar of the fucking boats.

BBC "broadcast a livestream" Other outlets (Times, Metro) see slashing the dinghy as the headline

This is completely pathetic from the BBC. Do better!

Peaceful environmental activism results in record jail sentences and prosecutions under terrorism. Yet far-right activism brandishing knives against and intimidating the RNLI seem to be "legitimate concerns" and are left unanswered.

Absolutely “shocking news” - OpenAI and Anthropic oversold “rogue AI” hacks to pressure the feds into regulating the industry to protect their market position nypost.com/2026/09/19/u...

This is so true.

Why does the BBC have as one of its lead news stories this morning another Britain-hating interview with Jim 'the UK has been colonised by immigrants' Ratcliffe? What public interest is this serving?

my brilliant colleague @robertshrimsley.bsky.social on the threat from Elon Musk’s X platform www.ft.com/content/f270...

While Piddington dominates the news, at Leicester Crown Court this man was sentenced today Ivan Jennings, a former Conservative councillor, called for terror attacks on small boat migrants and Muslims and shared target ideas, telling fellow white supremacists to kill as many “subhumans” as possible

This rally is surely symptomatic of the imminent downfall of civilisation in the United States. (That's not a question.)

The balaclava blackshirted thugs are a result of a decade of politicians, tabloids and the broadcast media telling racists they have "legitimate concerns." The normalisation of actual fascism rhetoric and action has led to this and is a far greater "legitimate concern" than any migrant on a boat.

What the absolute fuck is this line of questioning by Justin Webb? It’s worse than pure grandstanding; it’s querying Miliband’s faith.

Did Kent Police ignore Dover blockade 999 call? We can reveal the story that undermines the public statement of Kent Police. 🧵

Academics spend years developing expertise so we can confidently write "the evidence remains mixed"

BUT it seems self-evident that X and the things it pushes on to the vast majority of sensible British politicians and pundits who use it every day, is having a non-zero effect on their worldview, most obviously in the valence of news events, and their conception of how the "public" feels about them.
