It feels like we shouldn't have to say that fascism and genocide are bad, but we do. Pro shame and accountability. Your weirdest aunts/uncles shouldn't run countries.

And this is one of the reasons why the network of authoritarian powers are pushing to install Orban in the UN, in order to stymie any chance of making that existing supranational body the vehicle for such a global framework.
We pretty clearly need some kind of governmental framework that's global in scope for at least some issues; what exactly the scope and powers are can be debated, but the necessity is obvious at this point.
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.
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
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.
it is my deepest and most fervent wish that the tech oligarchs suffer consequences for openly allying with fascism the world over
maybe we can extradite zuck in 2029
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.
[completely ignoring the part about saddam hussein, a dictator who built garishly opulent palaces laced in gold, because I'm an idiot who doesn't understand how anything works] how dare obama besmirch the cheesecake factory
I'm finding a lot of the painting of the objection to this as "it's the government's job to run my life" .... odd
Like, I know how to shop, I know how to run my own life. But at the same time, this whole thing has been a complete disaster of communication. If it had been presented as "Here's what
I must admit I find the ‘Prepping’s not my job! What’s the government going to do for us in an emergency / stop the emergency from happening?’ reflex … odd.
govt is doing to bolster civil contingencies planning and infrastructure resilience, here's why it matters, AND HERE'S HOW YOU CAN PLAY YOUR PART" then you wouldn't have people baffled that the govt seems to be offloading its primary responsibility onto the populace it's meant to protect.
Instead we have Defence Secretary Dishface telling people to stock up on canned goods and bottled water as if he knows something the rest of us don't. It's so bizarre.
“Healey should remove anxiety and depression as a reason to claim benefits and offer people treatment instead. It would be better for the individuals and a fraction of the cost.”

My considered opinion is that the first act of an Ossoff presidency should be to raffle off the right to blow up Trump's Bribe Force One 747 in the Nevada desert.
"Donald Trump and his family are executing corruption at a scale never previously contemplated in the American experiment. If we are to ever graduate from this era of brazen graft, the first step is to notice." A service, from Matt Welch. reason.com/2026/07/09/t...
We tried "everyone is entitled to an opinion" for three straight decades and all we have to show for it is four thousand cases of measles and a death cult running the government. It's time for people who don't know what they're talking about to shut the fuck up.
Might be a parochial sense of nostalgia talking but frankly #BBCNews should do more sticking reporters in kagools on the edge of blustery lochs in the build up to storms, and less reporting on America.
Burnham to Matt Chorley on Jackdaw: "If we weren't unlocking our own resources we'd be importing from abroad."
This is nonsense. The gas from Jackdaw will be Shell's at point of extraction - and it will be sold on the open market to midstream and then downstream providers the same as any other gas.
Civil contingencies, as a part of protecting the public, is literally the first job of government. Show me that YOU are taking this seriously, before you try to offload the responsibility onto us in the middle of a cost of living crisis.
Fucking Brexit!
It's still getting worse ... an extra €2 handling fee per item on top of the already €3 duty per item.
This is for orders of €14 to send CDs to enthusiasts of our music in the EU.
It's prohibitive. It's anti-business. Fucking stupid ignorant people who voted for this!!!
As someone who runs a small business and for some reason pays my taxes…. Today’s “red tape” cut to company paperwork makes no real difference to me or my ability/desire to expand.
As someone who investigates small business high street tax evasion… great news for candy stores and scam dropshippers!
I, as a random citizen of a nation, should not be considering my response/preparedness to a russian cyber attack. *I* can't normalise *my* relationships with hostile foreign powers, or open up trade for cheaper food, that's deffo a government problem
I had to go on Twitter to confirm this was real because Ship Awesome Games In A Weekend having a hand with six fingers was so on the nose I was about to pass out
70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...
A reminder that the “trans lobby” is just trans people going about their lives, and the “fight” being referred to is JK Rowling using her money, power and influence to endorse policy that is killing trans people.
I’m amazed she could move to type a new essay with the layers of blood on her hands.
One of the most salient aspects of today's politics is how everyone imagines a conspiratorial "them" controlling things behind the scenes. Elon Musk is literally powerful enough to affect the course of the Ukraine war, but he's still imagining faceless puppet masters who need to be unmasked.
This is where we're at.
In a functioning country, Trump would have been removed for being incapable of doing his job by now.
But, as we know, the USA isn't a functioning country any more.
you're just going about your day and you now get to read stuff like "Trump says Sundar Pichai talked him out of renaming the Atlantic Ocean" and you just have to nod and move on with your day.
“Oceans are different, sir.” lmao www.theverge.com/policy/10167...
Honestly, you keep seeing those polls suggesting that the Rs are going to get trounced at the midterms, but I don't think they will be. They're going to intimidate their way to retaining a lot more of these seats than people think.
We now live in a police state:
CBS:
"Armed & in uniform, DHS agents have been knocking on doors to ask residents about their immigration status & to inquire if they have registered to vote or cast votes in past elections"
www.cbsnews.com/news/federal...
Strange to recall that in 1968 William Rees-Mogg’s Times led the way in denouncing Powell and sentiments exactly like this. What a disgraceful moral decline
This is a non story. The police chief cites actual figures. Farage challenges actual figures. Farage has no basis for doing this.
Why did the BBC run this?
Hey, just a humble, respectful request.
For the love of fucking god, stop fucking attacking Donald Trump with blatant and repulsive homophobia. If you think going after fascists by calling them gay or producing AI slop of them in dresses or making out, you're part of the fucking problem.
This PHP vulnerability *is* why lots of sites – especially government ones – are suddenly offline, but it's *not* because they've been hacked. Instead, they've been pulled offline until they can be made secure again.
It's a bit of a mess. Short thread.
