Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

All that krill goes to open pen salmon farms in Norway, Scotland, British Columbia, Chili, where their toxic and disease laden presence kills off Wild Salmon stocks. Kill krill industry. Kill open-pen salmon farms.

@lisaroyal.bsky.social @nedpyle.com Do you eat wild pink salmon? www.patagonia.com/stories/prov...

One certain method for ensuring you are purchasing wild caught salmon is to purchase salmon from Alaska, which does not allow commercial fish farms.

Please consider signing this petition. Salmon aquaculture in Ireland is polluting coastal waters, contributing to the collapse of wild salmon and driving overfishing for its feed – all despite organic labelling. And is a future we want? Chicken-remnant-fed fish? swanireland.ie/take-action/...

B.C — new study links bc salmon farms to rising disease risks for wild salmon #BC #News

A new study with unprecedented access to Atlantic salmon farms in BC raises urgent questions about the federal government’s approach to regulating salmon farms and highlights disease risk to wild salmon populations. Co-authored by Dr. Gideon Mordecai theconversation.com/new-research...

Old research found the same damn thing: New research finds frequent disease outbreaks in B.C. salmon farms, endangering wild salmon theconversation.com/new-research...

Rewilding doesn’t cause wildfires. In fact, it’s one of the best tools we have for creating fire-resilient landscapes. We saw this over the summer during the worst of the wildfires, and now a new report from Rewilding Britain sets out the evidence.

Jeffrey Epstein in an email to Peter Thiel wrote ‘Brexit, just the beginning’

NEW: We uncovered another trip shared by Donald Trump Jr and Umar Kremlev, the Kremlin-linked oligarch who attended his wedding. In August, they went hunting for a rare wild sheep in the remote Mongolian wilderness:

Exactly. A referendum is a decision, not a life sentence. In 2016 voters chose Brexit; they didn’t vote to surrender the right of future generations to reconsider it. If the consequences prove damaging, as they have, democracy demands the freedom to debate, vote again, & potentially change course.

They had their chance. It's been 10 years of failure to make any real sense of it and it's cost our economy £billions Anyway, no Government is bound by decisions made by a predecessor Grimsby and Cleethorpes get a vote at the next GE

This is just the maddest argument. These people would trap us in poverty to keep a decade old commitment, which no one ever actually made, to an electorate which no longer exists.

And credit to him, it worked. A sort of digital levee en masse, literally raising an army to counteract the forces that artificially amplify far-right messaging. He did that through organizing and messaging, both on the streets and online, that was so relentless that he put himself in the hospital.

Probably the guy who's going to come out of this one looking like a hero is André Janones, a deputy (congressman) from Minas Gerais who just kind of... decided to take the reins of the situation, more or less, and people were feeling so aimless after the first round that they went along with it.

Jenrick has set out how Reform would maximise our “Brexit freedoms”. And this is their list. This is the very best they can come up with. “Re-legalise imperial units” It’s truly pathetic that this is the pinnacle of their Brexit fever dream. And that anyone would still back this ruinous idiocy…

Active support for FoM is a core requirement for me to even consider voting for a party. It’s time to put right the wrong that was done to so many people. Together is the way forward.

Another stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian students voted out their authoritarian leadership after months of protests against corruption, taking their fight from the streets to the ballot box and turning people power into political power.

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

🇷🇸 Serbia: Vucic concedes defeat. Turnout was estimated at around 70%. This was the highest since 2000. Vucic blamed the defeat on independent media, unnamed European countries and the “American deep state”. Thousands of people came out to celebrate in Belgrade.

Trump doesn't recognize alot of things....

What is the BBC's justification for maintaining this level of coverage of Reform now it has slipped into third place?

Still going on. Twenty minutes uninterrupted coverage so far. Robert Jenrick is currently talking about sex chat bots.

In case facts still matter

BBC News just interrupted its coverage to go, live, to Nigel Farage - a man with no contitutional standing in our setup - responding to the budget - a document which nobody has seen yet. WHY

This went on for the rest of the full hour, at which point the BBC apologised for having to go to the weather and urged viewers to follow continuing live coverage on iPlayer. Forty-one minutes of unfiltered, unchallenged propaganda by a far right party with 8 MPs, now third in the polls. Discuss.

Yet another entrenched authoritarian defeated yesterday in Serbia. As the United States approaches a critical midterm election, Serbia shows that we can win despite uphill authoritarian conditions. It can be done. It takes all of us, especially young people. Timothy Snyder

Voters making a choice is kinda the whole point of elections

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

Lula wins, Bolsonaro 2 loses, it's sunny out when I wake up Coincidence?????

🤩 This is a significant moment. Burnham says openly that Brexit has weakened 🇬🇧 economy, failed to deliver promised control over immigration and produced a harder Brexit than many people were led to expect in 2016. On rejoin EU: “I would like to see that happen in my lifetime.” And next 👇 🧵

In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes and Right wing parties denying their election defeat

First Serbia, and now an even more seismic election result for the geopolitics of now. Hard to overstate how important Brazil bucking the far right trend in Latin America is - also a huge blow to Trump www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

A pretty straight choice here: regulate your billionaires, or billionaires will end democracy.

Reform and Tories have pledged to reverse ULEZ repeatedly.

Europe is the future now www.arguably.uk/p/europe-is-...

Oh my god, can you believe how far they’re scraping the bottom of the barrel? They’re all as mad as a box of frogs. www.lbc.co.uk/article/refo...

Doesn’t matter how you voted if you were front and centre in a Brexit government, actively overseeing the shrinking of our economy, our influence and our opportunities, while you rolled around in the trough. We’ll be disregarding everything you now say, thanks.

None of us should forget this. Meta should be subjected to corporate death penalty and permanently broken up into small pieces.

I suspect many new Reform UK Councillors saw it as a way to get rich quick - but baulk at the prospect of actually having to do some work to benefit not just themselves "Oldham's first Reform leader says he is leaving politics after shock resignation" www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater...

Burnham playing a canny game. "will not move ahead of public opinion" which he knows is actually far more open to stronger EU ties / rejoin than political opinion. Like talking about freedom of movement and downplaying Euro / Schengen. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Congratulations to my friend Lula on his electoral victory. Democracy and multilateralism have won in Brazil. Europe’s partnership with Brazil is thriving. We will remain by your side for the years to come.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.
