@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc Re massive fine for Water Companies. Is it certain they will actually end up paying or will they somehow wriggle out of it?

Farage cooking political books. A pinch of selective Labour social policies, a mix of Tory unfunded tax cuts all whitewashed down with a swig of racism after every ingredient is added. Populism at it's worst. Reform are the new Blackshirts. Farage is a new Oswald Mosley. #BBCnews

If motorists are determined to continue polluting cites instead of accessing public transport they should pay for the privilege. Keep LTN’s in cities.

Excellent move if true to increase congestion charge to £18. Fully in favour especially now more trains coming into city are nationalised. Support good public transport

The unbelievable condescension we’re already seeing today towards working class people- suggesting they don’t travel to Europe or their kids might not want to go to university and study in Europe- is quite something to behold.

Depressing reading about rise of far right in European elections. Seems the Oligarchs, snake oil salesmen, media moguls have the call & have turned people against each other. Frightening.

Enjoying full Stansted/Ryanair experience. Apparently WiFi went down early this morning & complete chaos. Feeling decidedly sorry for myself & tons of others who have missed flights

Richard Hoiles excellent analysis of Shoemark was commendable. I don’t believe any jockey can complain about an owner’s decision. Very glad however Hoiles’ data showed up positively for the jockey’s riding & hope Kieran has a good season despite this

Didn’t have a bad Chester but getting too old to take some of the bad beats that can happen at what is one of my favourite tracks! Tailorman was desperate in Cup consolation!

Not sure this trade deal will be any more popular than rejoining EU single market/customs union. Is bringing in cheap rate Indian labour for 3 years more attractive than free movement of European workers who would pay NI at standard rate.

I think I once saw a breakdown of people convicted of grooming in 2023 according to ethnicity. Did anyone else see it? Results might surprise a few if my memory is right

Went to sleep last night listening to people my age banging on about how tough it was to buy a house 30years ago. Woke up & the “send them all back” mob are holding sway. This country is determined to self destruct its economy as young skilled leave & jobs don’t get done.

Fox News has resorted to just straight up lying about Abrego Garcia, who has never been convicted or even charged with a crime

Rumours of Trumpy coming to London in September. Seems a good time to plan a holiday. Are there any decent countries left to go for a holiday? I am sure there are but genuinely interested in recommendations

After the Opium Wars China’s population worked pretty much 24/7 for 150years to make the country wealthy & powerful. Meanwhile USA consumed TV dinners & sat in gas guzzling vehicles. News channels tonight trying to decide which nation is in best shape to hold out in a trade war!

Trump is a complete & utter twat. Fucking around with the lives of people the world over with his ridiculous tariff games. Hopefully Starmer won’t continue to take him seriously

Ok what’s going on here? Yields are going up which means bond prices are going down. Fewer buyers of the world’s safest asset. Normally when the economy slows, there’s a flight to safety, not away from it. Means the world may be abandoning America. We are flirting with a true crisis.

Russia bombed a playground. A FUCKING PLAYGROUND - killing 9 children, while the U.S. regime met with Kirill Dmitriev, the man who offered U.S. oligarch Elon Musk a small nuclear power plant Your government is shaking hands with men responsible for murdering children. #3E #Endimpunity #Endoligarchy

Trump sanewashers were always craven but now stand exposed as outright fools. There is no theory of trade policy, or school of foreign policy, that can support this imbecilic administration. It's just a cult.

Not content with addressing the German far right AfD party, Musk today addressed the Italian far right Lega party, led by the pro-Putin, anti-gay, anti-Islam Matteo Salvini. Musk’s politics are pretty clear - and pretty dangerous.

The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

What do you call humans being kidnapped and sent to another country to be imprisoned in shackles and forced to perform intense physical labor while living in horrid conditions under the threat of daily physical violence and rape? Open a history book. You can do it. I believe in you.

If a law firm won't risk everything to defend itself, what makes you think it will risk anything to defend you? My advice: Find a law firm that will not back down and will never bend a knee.
