Is anyone going to invite Nigel Farage to condemn the disruption caused by a large gang of masked men in Dover this morning?

The Loss of Control Observatory said that incidence of AI agents going rogue "evidence AI systems’ willingness to disregard direct instructions, circumvent safeguards, lie to users and single-mindedly pursue a goal in harmful ways" In other words behave like the tech bros who created them

Arguments for young 'uns to use when grandad uses "1976" as the killer argument to say climate change is a hoax. 1. If you remember 1976 then you'll remember the Big Freeze of 1963. 2. How many super hot summers have there been since 76? 3. How many winters like 1963?

Zia Yusuf will promise a ban on churches being turned into mosques. Layla Cunningham will ban the burqa if she becomes London's mayor. Good to see Reform focusing on the most pressing issues the country faces.

When I hear an Opposition leader talking of preparing for government I always recall David Steele back in the 1980s. Not an accurate prediction then, hopefully Farage is being just as hubristic.
