Dear Europe, If any of you tie your military or economy to Elon Musk, then you're also giving Elon control over the OFF switch. You can see what happened in Ukraine when Elon turned it OFF. People died. Be smart. Go domestic. Avoid all things Elon Musk.

It's so obvious that trump is a traitorous fuck. Come on, America, get the orange pedo gone, ffs.

I hate to sound like a Luddite, but I agree with this.

Water is not a dumping ground. It was good to meet Matt Staniek of Save Windermere during the EFRA committee visit and hear about the fight to protect our waterways. We must hold water companies to account. But ultimately, public control of our water must be the way forward.

In a desperate bid to improve his popularity Donald Trump signed an executive order to rename himself Dolly Parton.

To answer your question Mr Lowe, I do. His name is Nasser Hamid. He was 16 when he left his village, to escape Sudan's civil war. He could not speak English. Look what he achieved! I admire his courage, resourcefulness and intelligence. All qualities sadly lacking in... certain people 🤮

Latest @newstatesman1913.bsky.social pod! Oli Dugmore and I discuss the Good Life, English sparkling wine and try to summon some thoughts about Harry and Meghan - plus a rap battle (of sorts) and a comparison of our music tastes...

There may be an explanation. But the trail raises a legitimate question about what was declared on his election paperwork and the actual use of the property at the time. Given Arundell's extensive property interests across Boston, it's a question worth answering.

In the movie about his close connections to Deripaska, Lebedev, Epstein and Thiel, Bill Nighy would be a brilliant Mandelson

Burnham must be watched carefully. He seems to have no scruples at all about claiming the credit for the great work of his predecessors. He seems to be reluctant to provide attributions, or tardy at the very least.

The convicted fraudster George Cottrell transferred a total of more than $2m to his mother, Fiona Cottrell, in the days before her 2024 donations to Reform UK, the Guardian understands. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

PS If you make a request at your library that they stock one of my books that’s a brilliant thing for me. It makes it available to many many more people who would never have known it existed.

The three of us have put out over 300 episodes, as well as holding down a day job each. All of it is put out completely free to absolutely everyone. Imagine taking to the keyboard to abuse me, because five minutes of a single episode didn't do it for you. WTAF is wrong with people.

No reason why I should suffer the full size horror of what @mrkennycampbell.bsky.social made in his dank photoshop basement alone. Sharing is caring.

Reform UK ~ funded by Russia Restore - bought and paid for by an American trillionaire GB News - owned by a hedge fund in Dubai The Daily Mail - registered in Bermuda. Is that Patriotism? #NotOnOurSide ⤵️ #ReformUKLtd 🇷🇺 #RupertLowe 🇺🇸 #GBNews 🔥🇬🇧 #DailyMail 🔥🇬🇧 www.facebook.com/share/p/1H1z...

Reform's Zia Yusuf had claimed the state was "providing no protection whatsoever" to the party's MPs. In fact, Nigel Farage had been offered a package that would have given him the same level of protection as Kemi Badenoch - but he turned it down.

Brilliant Darren ! 👏👏👏

Such a waste of lovely people’s lives. Putin deserves punishment.

This is what imperialists always do. They claim to love their country. They feed its people into the machine.

Which of us is really the villain here, sir? You, refusing to help a stranger in need, or me sipping from the straw in your iced latte? I guess now that I’ve been asked to leave this train we will never know.

MAGA is racist.

Where were the riots? Why does the right wing sleep through all these events? Two Tier Policing - say whut now? & remember, Farage's nephew, got off VERY lightly with upskirting...

With England's World Cup campaign kicking off tonight, I want to give a huge shout out to East Manchester's own Nico O'Reilly! He's had an incredible season, including his heroics in the League Cup Final. He's a very well deserved young player of the year. Come on England!

It’s hard to believe it’s 10 years since my friend, the amazing, Jo Cox was murdered. I will never forget that moment nor the time after it. It’s still hard to compute. That such a positive, impactful, caring, inclusive woman could be taken in that way for doing her job as an MP, still shocks.

Why Britain gets defence wrong – this is sharp from @jeegarkakkad.bsky.social on how our obsession with the level of spending has distracted from its quality. “The real question isn’t 3% versus 3.5%. It’s whether the money buys the protection the threat demands.“ www.arguably.uk/p/why-britai...

This is sad news. Roy Hattersley, best known for being Neil Kinnock’s deputy leader, shaped the Labour Party and British politics. He was a giant of our movement and of that generation of politicians. I met him a few times and he was always kind, thoughtful and full of sound advice. RIP.

So fucking apt.

We leave the house for two hours and there he is, completely baked, upside down on the sofa, listening to psychedelic rock music.

Excellent thread !

🇬🇧 British forces intercepted a russian “shadow fleet” oil tanker in the English Channel early this morning, acting on orders from Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Starmer said the operation delivered another blow to russia and sent a clear message to those helping fund putin’s war against Ukraine

Today Labour passes the Steel Nationalisation Bill. British Steel is coming into public ownership. For generations, previous governments left our steel industry to die. Capabilities declined. Production fell. Communities were abandoned.

Just remembered we've passed the 10th anniversary of this untruthful tweet
