Loves: cats, politics, music, GOOD chocolate. Do not think that giving me chocolate kittens as a gift is in any way acceptable. especially if they are made of inferior chocolate. That's about it really.

In parts of Merseyside, migrant care workers are being routinely racially abused and attacked by primary school-aged children Sickening in so many ways

Wow. This is good. My husband has just finished reading VIP Lane by Russell Scott (published by Byline Books!) and is incandescent with rage about what went on.
Andy Burnham at #PMQs: “Have they had the time to read the Covid inquiry report yesterday about the appalling state of social care as it went into the pandemic? “I need no lectures from the other side about taking tough decisions on social care. I suggest they have a period of reflection.”

The narrative that Americans are divided on abortion is a lie to hide just how undemocratic bans are—and convince lawmakers to take weaker stances on abortion. ~70% of Deep South voters oppose abortion bans. I wrote about the implications of this:

Ooh look, the Greens refusing planning permission for a solar farm, because it "didn't look nice". Fucking clowns.
The minority Green Party administration on Stroud District Council "refused the planning application in December 2025. It rejected the project, Wheatenhurst Solar Farm, on the grounds of negative visual impact," traffic management and other points, but it has now been overruled

Under Trump, more than 500 Americans have been grabbed off the street and sent to DHS concentration camps. Many have been filmed screaming that they are American citizens. DHS doesn't care; they just toss them into detainment until some family member or lawyer is able to prove their citizenship.

Precisely this.
The problem is, you can't really say "we condemn this thing" and then only explain in the small print that you are using one particular definition of "this thing" and very specifically not any other definitions, even though a lot of other people use those definitions and will react accordingly.

Fuck YES. Absolutely bang on.
For once I'd like a commentator to say "the level of popular upset bears absolutely no relation to the reality of the situation and is cynically exacerbated by opportunistic politicians and editors. The people going out in the streets on this are unemployable racist scum and can get fucked."
Fantastic thread - well worth reading.
🧵 As front-page headlines go, this has to be one of the most misleading I've seen in a long time It's an out-and-out lie But notice the trick they use to get away with it...👀 *They're* not lying - they're just quoting someone else who is👍🏻 In this case, the leader of the opposition🙄 1/33

will say it again: the most effective way to curb far right agitators like Lowe, "Tommo" et. al. would be to stop their ability to earn money for it from social media or live streaming. So much of it is grifting for revenue, not attention.
Here's Rupert Lowe MP's payments from X Corp over the past year. This man is making serious cash from Musk's platform. Payments surged over the summer, during UK 'unrest', and when Musk was frantically re-sharing Lowe's posts... Bleak, lucrative work if you can get it.

Good. Now get all the front bench out saying this.
Well said Bridget Phillipson on BBC Laura Kuenssberg on how disturbing it is “to question people’s British identity on the basis of their skin colour.” The question was in response to Rishi Sunak’s excellent recent @thetimes.com article. We must confront racism.

I have lost confidence in the BBC. Platforming this man without pointing out at any time that he is a) a tax exile in Monaco, so pays ZERO taxes and b) he makes a lot of money from oil.
So much of the right these days have a massive patriotism problem. This guy: - is a tax exile (left long before this govt) - hates his own country while complaining he doesn’t get big enough subsidies from it - laments the manufacturing hit from a Brexit he supported www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
