Wow - this article is bordering on unhinged!
Apparently the BBC is akin to a “North Korean re-education camp” for teaching children about net-zero and covering both the pros AND cons of immigration

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

As a former prime minister, Liz Truss is a significant political figure. But after branding the Financial Times part of the 'deep state' and describing the left as 'Islamo-communist', she has clearly degenerated into a full-on gibbering rightwing whackjob.
Somehow the press didn't think it was in the public interest to report on an Oxford academic who was, at that point, as far as they were concerned, also Michael Gove's girlfriend, being charged with possessing indecent images of children 🤷♀️

Hmmm… who to believe… Andy Burnham or the compulsive liar who got sacked twice for lying, lied to Parliament, lied to The Queen, cheated on two wives and ignored the Ministerial Code. Tricky one.
Reform UK’s internal inquiry into alleged foreign donations, which found no breach of electoral law, was conducted by a British barrister who represented US President Donald Trump in failed litigation over the Trump–Russia dossier. By @nafeez.bsky.socialbylinetimes.com/2026/10/13/r...
For those wondering why I have not condemned Donald Trump's decision to buy Russian deisel, it's just that I think it's a great idea because I too am a Russian stooge and a traitor.
Ukrainian drones struck three Yandex data centres in Russia, shutting down two and crippling the third. The attacks disrupted more than 80 services, including banking, transport and cloud infrastructure, following Russian strikes on Ukrainian data centres.
"Democrats will have power to launch their investigations into whether what has happened has been lawful or if there needs to be prosecutions.
“This will make the last two years of Donald Trump's term in office utterly miserable.”"
Is Trump's time up?

It's important to recognise is that this *isn't* about the US getting "back" to business with Russia, because there's never been much US-Russia business of any kind beyond arms control. What the Trump admin is pushing for is an unprecedented alignment of the US with Russia.
Tl;dr: the Trump administration lifting sanctions against Russia in the week that Russia escalates its campaign of war crimes against Ukrainian civilians is disgusting but it shouldn't be remotely surprising. It's what Trump and his circle have always wanted to do.

Well, today's news confirms it. Donald Trump works for Russia. In five years time, when his dementia and syphilis saps the last of his reason and we get the full extent of his crimes, the American public will have a lot of soul searching to do.
Back in May, Double Fine employees petitioned for a union. Two weeks later, that petition was withdrawn. What happened? https://kotaku.com/inside-the-failed-fight-to-unionize-one-of-gamings-most-idealized-studios-2000742755
We will not tolerate unacceptable pay offers and threats to withhold back pay from Apache. The operator is raking in eye-watering profits. It’s treating its highly skilled workers with contempt. Apache has been caught red handed in embarking on shameful corporate greed.
“Zionism is racism” is not a policy but a slogan. It compresses a complex history, going back millennia, and a very wide set of beliefs into one narrow meaning. The answer to genocide is not discrimination. We don't fight racism with racism. I’m gutted to see this motion adopted by the Green Party.

I watched this last night. It's terrifying, but hopeful. I feel it's my duty, as a human, to share it. I'd appreciate it if you shared it too. It's specifically made for people in the UK, but it's about everyone, and, the more people see it, the better chance we'll have. www.nebriefing.org/the-film

It's really refreshing seeing shitey normal working class life depicted like this in a game, and a Silent Hill game no less. Pebble-dashed council flats, three-bar fires, Post Office counters, concrete shopping precincts. This must be how posh people felt playing Everybody's Gone to the Rapture.
Just me saying that any effort to tackle misinformation must be an attack on Reform, thereby admitting that Reform are helping Russia to spread far right narratives and create dissent and unrest.
Like many UK 80s kids, I know have Tots TV theme going round my head.
1 2 3 - Trump TV!
I’m a Trump
Je suis use Trump

We’re the Trumps on Trump TV, 1-2-3!
Keep politics out of music, like in the old days when Tchaikovsky wrote the 1812 Overture about how nice the weather was that year, or Beethoven composed his “Emperor” concerto in honour of his favourite kitten, and Dylan sang A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall, all about the fun of splashing in puddles.
I like Ed Sheeran being like "I never spoke about politics. Because my music is about unity, not division" and then the music is like "la la la la I want to touch your body wow. sexy crazy body wow"
