* Interested in ending human rights and dignity? * Are you a racist, rapist or paedophile looking to rebrand as a “political prisoner”? * Thinking about strip mining UK public services and selling off the ashes? Nige will oblige! Join Reform UK today at their Moscow, Dubai or Florida offices 👍🏻

Feeling ever less sympathy for people accusing the UK Government of scaremongering by suggesting a few basic and sensible preparations for emergencies (and even less for Tories trying to make political capital from it). No-one is forcing you, but you live with your choices if something does happen.

Actual headline: Reform plan to measure the fuck all good they would deliver for the UK in imperial rather than metric measurements. www.lbc.co.uk/article/refo...

May you have as good a day as Serbian students and Brazilian anti-fascists. Go get ‘em 🙌

I don’t want a discussion about freedom of movement in isolation. I want a discussion about the net costs and benefits of the various options overall - which will prove EU membership is clearly the most advantageous. Stop playing into the hands of the far right by making this all about migration.

Actual headline: Reform UK braces for formal confirmation of what everyone already knows, and for Farage to be downgraded from “liar” to “proven liar”. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Won’t somebody *please* think of the poor bankers… www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Whenever you think Reform UK can’t make themselves look any more ridiculous, along they come with utter nonsense like “we demand that journalists be prevented from doing journalism”. So fundamentally unserious and unsuitable to be anywhere near power. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Went to London and there are groups of men openly and brazenly riding around in public places with weapons. This place is truly lawless…

So hard to know who to believe - the actual Prime Minister, or the will-never-be Prime Minister who says Vladimir Putin is his favourite leader and who has paid Russian propagandists in his party. Tricky one… www.lbc.co.uk/article/fara...

Actual headline: Rejecting EU membership was, and continues to be, dereliction of duty. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

In response, Reform UK spokesperson, Svetlana Putinskaya, said it was “categorically untrue to suggest that the glorious Russian motherland could ever be involved in hostile acts against the UK, and it was clearly Ukraine and drag queens who were to blame.” www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

‘Time for the US to get new President’, says everyone else. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

“Daddy Vladi is just so good to me. Yes, he sometimes gets angry, and he doesn’t let me be with my friends any more, but he also gives me nice things”

Actual Headline: Tories to announce new “If You Thought We Were Cunts Last Time, Watch This…” policy. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Suella Braverman must be raging that 50% of England’s goals against Croatia (so far) were scored by non-English people… #CROENG

It’s impossible to reverse Brexit - just like it’s impossible that the President of the United States would threaten to invade and annex Canada, or would prefer to be friends with communist dictators rather than European democracies. Things are only impossible in politics until they aren’t. 🇬🇧🤝🇪🇺

“…if we want to grow the economy then we have to rejoin – we all know that. “From the discussions taking place, it is not ‘if’ but ‘how’ we do it” This. A million times this 👆 Cabinet ministers should put the national interest first - get with it or get out. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Maybe I’ll just end up heartbroken, but I want to believe. I *really* want to fucking believe. Won’t be quick, won’t be easy, and won’t be without a ton of grief, but it can be done. 🇬🇧🤝🇪🇺

Trump comparing a vague, non-legally binding document that allows the rich and powerful to do what they want to the constitution tells you everything you need to know about the man. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Options for our relationship with the EU are like immortals in the film “Highlander” - there can be only one. We all know what that option is. #rejoin www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Very much putting the “racist” in “conspiracist”… www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/far...

Don’t worry though - whether the nations of the UK are one, two, three or four states, we’ll still all think the Putin Regime are a bunch of cunts. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Actual Nigel Farage: “I have been warning for many months that I won’t come out of hiding and face difficult questions about my illegal activities without a bloody good reason, but the thought that a brown person might have done something somewhere has me positively moist, so I couldn’t resist…”

So hard to decide which aspect of Florida I’d be most keen for the UK to replicate first, between the dengue fever, the ICE goons in the streets, and the voter suppression…

Actual headline: “Heathrow asks authorities to just turn round, look over there for a little bit, and just trust us” www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

How does one become a crisp taster, and to where should applications be sent? Asking for a friend… www.theguardian.com/food/2026/se...

Irony just died…

Kemi Badenoch is absolutely right about Piddington being a suboptimal place for such a base. North West Essex would be far better, and I’m sure the local MP would agree… www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

What the fuck is this headline - “fails to rule out” 🤦🏻 Funny way of saying “Andy Burnham should realise sheer folly of Labour red lines, and need to reverse Brexit, in line with the prevailing view of the majority of British people” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I think we can all agree that if there’s one thing the Middle East *definitely* needs, it’s more bombs and explosions…

Suing to reverse the ban is good. Actually reporting Trump’s words and actions for what they are, and not dignifying them as presidential or in the national (or global) interest, or pretending that they are normal and sane, would be far better.

FFS - watching Kemi Badenoch trying to work out how much closer EU relations and net zero fixes these issues is like watching a baby trying to work out how their parent got their nose. Sorry, probably insulting to babies there - they at least develop brain power and the ability to make connections.

To paraphrase The Who: “Meet the new deal, same as the old deal.” Same unlimited troop deployment, basing, and airspace rights as before. All that’s changed is a complete loss of trust and goodwill, which may never come back.

But remember - these crypto billionaire donors definitely, *definitely* don’t want anything in exchange for their donations to Reform, and it’s all just out of the goodness of their hearts…. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

A story that should be getting far more attention than it is, and a huge step forward for circularity - not to mention one in the eye for idiots who push for fossil fuels because of “but turbine blades aren’t recycled” whataboutery. www.energyglobal.com/wind/1109202...

Fantastic news as El Presidente announces new “Money for Mugs and Silver Dollars for Suckers” programme. Upfront participation is free as the eye-watering cost will be borne by your descendants through the national debt, and the only cost is your humanity and soul by having to vote Republican.

“How dare you question my 9/11 experience. I never faced these sorts of lies and abuse when I was landing on the moon, single-handedly inventing the internet, or driving tanks during the Gulf War…” www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

“Carnal knowledge of a juvenile” - holy fuck, these red states make Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia look like bastions of the enlightenment… www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The UK needs a new “hostile environment” policy - one directed at fascist goons rather than migrants. And just like the original, the new policy should be designed to make life in the UK as difficult as possible for fascists, with everyday checks and cutting off certain support. Seems fair.

Now let’s turn Jenrick’s language around: “Oh boohoo. We’re now in a country where somebody who is a far-right thug blocks the port of Dover, and cries foul if people call for them to be arrested. I mean, come on, get a life” Two tier policing indeed. www.messengernewspapers.co.uk/news/nationa...

This might be his shittest excuse yet. And if you want to sound less Trumpy, “I know electoral law. I know donation law better than anybody” ain’t how to do it. This nicotine-stained sock puppet just makes himself look and sound more ridiculous every time he speaks. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Remember when right-wingers used to scream that face masks were a sign of totalitarian dictatorship, repression, and an assault on freedom and individual liberty… www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
