“as part of efforts to save costs” Despite announcing quarterly pre-tax profits of £2.3billion up 12% on last year Barclays cutting 5,000 jobs in AI-led efficiency drive - Sky News www.independent.co.uk/news/busines...

Great article. The most corrupt White House in history sees corruption is topping the midterm polls and just blame it on Somalis from Minnesota and other terrible people like journalists

Humiliating and dangerous: Trump has now finally just made America an ally of the Kremlin and is aiding Putin in his war against an American friend and partner. Shameful betrayal of a US friend, and pathetic submission to a US enemy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Carney is just next level. I reckon Introducing the word ‘hydronyms’ to the American president could be one of the best international put downs of all time

What is so important to the ultra-rich that they must seize and destroy the world's resources, hold down wages and crush organised labour, capture politics to reduce the tax they pay, fund the far right to stifle democracy? Here's an answer. A Hermes Birkin 35 Diamond Bag. On sale for £449,555.68

Dear angry people, if you’re looking for someone to denounce for DESTROYING OUR CULTURE and RUINING OUR HERITAGE, try Westminster Council. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Neoliberalism in a nutshell. UEFA on FIFA's proposal: “The moment external investors acquire ownership interests ... football changes forever. Commercial return becomes a permanent obligation. ... Every decision is no longer driven by what best serves the game, but by what best serves shareholders.”

We should break the bank to get Mamdani in the next transfer window. He’s like the political Bellingham

Never has a country needed Count Binface more. He’s like a mirror being held up to the gaslighting fucking nonsense

What’s that, Dale? You want to give me an unconditional personal gift of £5million to do whatever I want with? Sure! I just need to fill out a form. If I didn’t declare it that would be silly.

Wisdom!

We’ve achieved a lot in London these last ten years. Thank you, London. I couldn’t have done it without you.

Seems to be a vote winner

How do I tell the Bluesky algorithm that I’m not an Aston Villa fan

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Wow.

Excellent piece: www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Sadiq Khan at his media reception: "Please make the most of the booze, because I will be bringing in sharia law starting from tomorrow." 😆😆😆

The narrative about London crime is truly so BORING to Londoners. Those of us who walk & travel around our city safely every day, every night. The likeliest daily risk to Londoners is of being ripped off by our landlord or somewhere charging us £4.50 for a coffee. #r4today

This is brilliant

The plot against London ft.trib.al/EAdfyJI

I’ve always liked Shrewsbury

Gary Lineker on winning the National TV Award, "It's not lost on me why I might have won this award" "Aside from presenting Match of the Day.." "Also, I think it demonstrates that perhaps it's ok sometimes to use our platform to speak up on behalf of those who have no voice"

“This is America”

Imagine if they’d had sandwiches. 🥪

Arresting 400+ people for the "terrorist" offence of protesting against mass murder while large segments of the right are openly encouraging riots against immigrants is a tale of a very unhappy country and government.

In the Finnish artist Iiu Susiraja’s photographs, fat stigma is toyed with, embodied, and satirized.

For ever Farage, Jenrick and Goodwin talking our beautiful capital down… the reality is @ezracollective.bsky.social who should make everyone on this island proud and who personify the London I love.

'Whatever malicious thing can be found anywhere in the world can be found [in London]… actors, jesters, smooth-skinned lads, Moors, flatterers, pretty boys... quacks, belly dancers [and] sorcerers'. A visitor to London, 1180.

Massive attack. Wow. Adam Curtis adding to the creative fucking masterclass youtu.be/yv_S8GdylEA?...

Obviously @agnesobel.bsky.social is an incredible artist but there’s something about her Late Night Tales mix that operates on another level - it’s fucking INCREDIBLE. Thank you Agnes!! youtu.be/vBFL_OqQPkk?...

Made up for Eze. Incredible player and a lovely lad.

In an era when producers would throw the kitchen sink at records - whenever i listen back to Drum Club stuff, they have such a clarity with their records and remixes that still sound excellent when others from that time can sound messy youtube.com/watch?v=Cboe...

Fascism is now in the algorithms, the neural pathways, the social interactions. How did we fail to see all this? “We wanted to see Trump in terms of his absences, so that our way of seeing the world would go unchallenged,” Timothy Snyder writes.

An actual headline from an actual newspaper. #project2025

They were getting a little bit yippee

We took over the giant screen at Farage’s big rally in Birmingham

Chuffed to be asked to put a selection of records together for Amateurism’s Spring Equinox event. Kicked off yesterday and sounding excellent already. Mine is pretty chilled, headphone music for a morning🌅 stroll - or to procrastinate 💻 from home to. Go on. Amateurism.co.uk From 8am

There is an alternative to Government welfare cuts - a 2% tax on wealth. There is no shortage of money here, we just need a fairer approach to tax - take more from the few not the many.

Elbows up 🇨🇦

This is super interesting. It's a demo of a communication protocol called GibberLink, based on the ggwave data-over-sound encoding. It allows faster auditory exchange between two artificial agents. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtNa...

We’re everywhere and nowhere baby. That’s where we’re at.

Hard to tell where Kremlin foreign policy ends and the Trump administration’s begins
