Labour are scared. Their smear machine is running at full tilt. Desperate, nasty, and knowingly morally vacuous. It’s like the Tories never left office.

Instructions to Labour activists are apparently now at the “Look, we know it’s going to be bad - please at least try to avoid crying on camera” level

Best political commentary I’ve seen this year

Absolutely standard British regulatory body behaviour here, isn’t it?

A billionaire provide an infinite slush fund for endless propaganda against you: "Well, that's his view and we have freedom of speech here". Group of Neo-Nazi skinheads protest outside a hotel: "I'd be frustrated too". A granny holds up a sign supporting Palestine Action: "THIS IS TERRORISM"

@zackpolanski.bsky.social turned me into a newt! … I got better …

Why, you’d almost think that the political right in the UK were being paid to make the pronouncements against renewables that they make, all day, every day. You might even suspect that most of the UK media is owned by billionaires who profit from that position. You might. If you thought about it.

Guys I don't have a good feeling about this

This is how easy it is to demolish right-wing framing when you have a humanistic, moral basis for your views

Hannah Spencer walking into Westminster, sucking her teeth, tutting, and muttering "tell you what, you've had some cowboys in here."

This. It’s not difficult, if you have any semblance of human decency.

“Behold, as I predict the occurrence of something I have directly and deliberately prompted to happen. Be ye amazed by my soothsaying power! None can deny my brilliance!”* *Dissenters and disbelievers have been shunned by way of disabling replies. My ego shall brook no bruising this day.

Oh look, another hit-and-run (replies not allowed) rhetorical attack thrown at @zackpolanski.bsky.social - this time, a Jewish version of the ‘no true Scotsman’ fallacy. Do continue explaining to Zack exactly how he’s not Jewish enough for you, Francis. I’m sure he’s on the edge of his seat.

Well now, it would be rude not to tag @aptshadow.bsky.social here

Very sad to learn of the demise (as he would no doubt want it described) of Tom Lehrer. The pigeons shall rejoice this day! m.youtube.com/watch?v=yhuM...

When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. - Max Planck (1858 - 1947)

This pleases me immensely

Happy Easter

One of my favourite authors voices exactly my thoughts on this matter. Some faith in humanity has been restored.

Joy!

I don’t know why people find Dry January hard. Mine is going great. So far today I’ve had 3 glasses of dry white wine, 2 pints of dry cider and a dry martini.
