Good news for the economy, we’re doing a roaring trade in canned food and shotguns

Listening to a report about Google chopping down a quarter of a million trees in Finland to build a data centre while washing out yoghurt pots for the recycling

The Labour Party have directly assisted the genocide in Gaza and continue to do so under Andy Burnham and Ed Miliband. We won’t take moral lectures from war criminals.

If anyone is wondering where Donald Trump got his design aesthetic from, this is Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan townhouse

Labour now briefing young people won't get the same minimum wage uplift. Even Starmer didn't break this pledge. Workers rights mean same rights, pay & conditions, same rate for the same job. What does this Labour government have against young people? inews.co.uk/news/politic...

The Green Party seem to be the only party taking seriously the collapsing food system in the UK. Fair prices for farmers, stronger protection for consumers, action when essential food prices surge, plus a strategic reserve to improve resilience. greenparty.org.uk/2026/10/03/g...

First they erased a ‘Protect the Dolls’ t-shirt from Strictly Come Dancing. Now they’ve erased Pride badges from University Challenge. The BBC are saying that our visibility as LGBTQ people is a political issue. Meanwhile they’ve commissioned a 2-part series on JK Rowling. Impartial? My arse!

Israel has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity in Palestine, the latest report from a UN Commission of Inquiry has concluded.

“But we have to consider public opinion” basically means let Rupert Murdoch decide

UK Chancellor pledges cheaper marmalade and gherkins in pre-Budget package of 'everyday fixes'. Fiddling at the edges. Need redistribution of income and wealth. End profiteering in housing, energy, water, essentials. Increase tax personal allowance.

What difference would a Wealth Tax make? Well, according to the latest modelling from @ippr.org it could fun... 👨‍⚕️130,000 more care workers 🏡 Build 90,000 new council houses + 21,000 specialist supported homes for older or disabled people Oh, and... 1/2 🧵 www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

If you're a chief executive on a telephone number salary, at least have the grace not to complain about the taxes the fund the benefits your workers have to claim because you refuse to pay them enough to live on

⏰️ It's time for a bold, green budget that brings down bills, tackles inequality and works to protect our environment. Will Labour deliver?

The BBC needs to provide an explanation for this.

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

I have been detained by Israeli security forces all day. Along with with MPs Clive Lewis, Lara Bird, MSP Kate Nevans, former MP Sam Tarry and campaigners from across the world, we were turned back because they don’t want anyone seeing their ethnic cleansing.

It's disturbing to see some young Jews, especially Americans who moved to Israel, echo Nazi rhetoric. American-born Jews also wield disproportionate influence within the settler movement, including some of its most violent extremist factions.

Bluesky has four kinds of users.

The psychopath in the 2 photos right is Sean Glass, ex 🇺🇸 Navy Seal, in charge of killing Hind Rajab. The one on the left, standing proudly in front of a burning school, is Jonathan Burman, from Manchester, 🇬🇧. Both travelled voluntarily to 🇮🇱 to commit war crimes. Both have rested on breaks back home

On 21 October the government approved gas production at the Jackdaw field. As health professionals, we regard this as a matter of patient safety. Jackdaw is a health decision, not only an energy decision. Our position statement 🧵

Infinite growth on a finite planet is a physical impossibility.

“Cyclists are often perceived as recklessly flaunting road laws. A new study challenges this perception. The study found only 5% of cyclists broke road rules while riding on bike infrastructure versus 66% of motorists who broke rules while driving.” Safe bike infrastructure fuels rule-following.

Private equity buys UK fertility clinics. PE already controls social care, hospitals, GP surgeries, dentistry, child fostering. Usual business model. High debt, quality of care declines, prices increase, high profits. When things go wrong, NHS has to step in, PE doesn't pay.

Kevin Maguire is spot on, all this talk about people stocking up is part of a wider lobbying campaign to increase defence spending. And as Kevin points out, the UK is already the 6th biggest defence spender in the world.

Attacks on trans people were never about protecting women, as they claimed. It was always about enforcing far right ideas about gender and sex on everyone.

Politicians should look at the UK economy as a CEO would, says Lloyds Bank CEO From a bank that hasn't investigated HBOS frauds. No thank you. Companies enrich shareholders. Countries have entirely different purpose, governance, accountability. Must not be treated as corporations. archive.ph/lj45s

The prime minister’s new, remote-controlled Jackdaw gasfield will generate less new employment than nine standup comedians going on tour – and is considerably more likely to be hacked This week’s column by Stewart Lee

Jackdaw gas field is not a jobs plan. It is not an energy bills plan. It is not an energy security plan. And it is certainly not a climate plan. We cannot wean ourselves off fossil fuels by burning more fossil fuels. Read more here:

Interdimensional Portal Of The Week.

Palantir being given access to this stuff is basically treason.

Beware of finance industry lobbying. It hired PwC (the firm that delivers dud audits) to produce a report, claiming that UK banks face highest rates of tax. The report included taxes not borne by banks. Omitted countries that levy higher rates of taxes. Integrity never gets in the way of profits.

Protect this Young WOMAN at all Cost!!

I'm unemployed so I don't have a lot of money to spend on booze, what with interest rates and utility bills always going up. Plus I'm seven years sober. How about the government actually rising to the challenges we face rather than shrugging?

Neal Lawson: "I couldn't live on the meagre benefits people are getting. To suggest that we have to cut those.. actually that's where the engine of growth is, that's the people who spend.. how do you get people out spending.. not by cutting benefits of people at the bottom"

"The report, led by @kevinclimate.bsky.social from the @tyndallcentre.bsky.social, found that wealthy countries such as the #UK, #US and #Australia had until 2034 *to stop all oil and gas production* to give the world a 50% chance of preventing devastating climate breakdown"

This death toll should be treated as the national scandal it is. An estimated 4,354 people have died in UK heatwaves since June. The Government has yet to explain how, or what it will do to be ready before next summer.

And simply no one is shocked to discover that the invasive yet stupid plan to try and control kids whilst allowing the rampant predatory behaviour of big tech to continue unregulated has failed. No one paying attention failed to expect exactly this. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
