Residents of Dolgellau give thanks to the Gods as the clocks on their microwaves, car radios, ovens and VHS players all tell the correct time for the first time in 6 months

Remember, if you see someone burning down a Nazi pilgrimage site, no you didn't

To clarify @transparentaction.bsky.social exists to support proud parents (and other family) of trans people, to take a stand and speak up. Given we’ve recently heard that family members influenced the gender affirming surgery pause for adults in Wales, our action is needed more now than ever.

🔴 LIVE - Surrey Trans Pride The last trans pride of 2026! A few dozen people have gathered here in Woking so far, with more people and organisations including @transparentaction.bsky.social on their way.

Shame on my ex-profession for failing to stand up to the rampant transphobia within NHS England and within its own ranks. ‘We know our actions will cause harm to trans people but we’ll do it anyway because we either a-believe trans people are less than or b-we are cowards’ Which one are you?

How impossibly naive can you be about the AI industry?? 'the country’s prime minister, Petteri Orpo, said attracting investment was a “top priority” and “the value of the data economy extends far beyond direct investment”. He said the Google deal would “deliver lasting benefits for both parties”'

Tonight, Reform tried to tell muslim women what they can and cannot wear. They claim to be champions of freedom, but only when it fits their narrow exclusionary definition. Bydd Plaid Cymru wastad yn sefyll fyny dros ein cymunedau a herio casineb a rhagfan Reform.

A new service helping people find training, volunteering and jobs linked to restoring nature in Wales has secured more than £460,000 from the National Lottery Community Fund wp.me/p8Mk4U-1vuO

The National Library of Wales is inviting visitors to step inside the paintings of one of Wales’ best loved artists Kyffin Williams, whose brooding mountains, hill-farms and sheepdogs help define a national sense of place

Today, people across the world remember one of the greatest tragedies in Welsh history - the 1966 Aberfan disaster - which left a small mining village robbed of an entire generation

Why do undercover journalists always pick on Reform? How come they never target organisations that aren't full of racists, misogynists and sex pests?

An annoying bloke from England walks up our beautiful Yr Wyddfa to plant his union flags. He met intelligent young people there; he's so arrogant, he didn't expect that 😂 Da iawn to the medical students! They are our future. 👏🌟 #OurNHS #YrWyddfa #Cymru

The Senedd has barred the National Poet of Wales from reading a poem at the opening of the Welsh Parliament in front of the King because it was “too political”. willhaywardwales.substack.com/p/wales-watc...

The irony that the BBC blurred out the Protect the Dolls slogan on a Strictly contestant’s tshirt for their social accounts as “political” but will happily dedicate a two-part doc to the woman who uses her billions to fund lawsuits to persecute transgender people www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/...

I have to admit, I can't stand Nick Robinson. He's no journalist. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OO__... #TheCrispinFlintoffShow Jackie Walker talks about Nick Robinson's interview with Zack Polanski in the wake of the 'Zionism is Racism' motion. #ZackPolanski #JackieWalker #CrispinFlintoff

maybe I am just being dumb, but the project the dolls t shirt does appear to be branded merchandise from connerives.com/products/pro... I don't like it was censored and I think they could have had work arounds, but it does align with pretty standard BBC practice:/

The UK's ban on trade with Israel's illegal settlements will only stop an estimated 0.6% of UK-Israel trade. If the government wants the UK to be a country that “stands up for what is right”, it must end the whole UK-Israel trade deal.

🎶 oh, oh, oh, there’s no going back down Garvaghy 🎶 Christy Moore delivers.

Archer’s resignation from the London mayoral race after it was revealed he lied in court was the thing that got Paul Foot up from his sickbed and contributing again, having first started chronicling Archer’s lies and misdemeanours in 1969. From the Private Eye archive. Issue 992, December 1999.

Here in Britain, antisemitism and anti-Muslim hatred have risen sharply. We stand with Jewish and Muslim communities in their grief, and against all who seek to divide them.

Three years ago today, Hamas carried out a horrific terror attack in Israel. We remember all those killed and taken hostage, and the tens of thousands of Palestinians killed in Gaza since.

Long tribute from Kemi Badenoch in her conference speech to Jeffrey Archer, complete with round of applause. The world is a "less colourful" place without him, she says, which is one way to describe a serial fraudster, fantasist and liar who wrecked several lives in the process.
