I was sitting in an Italian cafe in Bournemouth and ordered a breakfast. While I was waiting the cool looking guy in a cream suit and shades offered me his paper since he'd finished it. It was a kind gesture so I took it despite it being the S*n. When the waitress arrived ...1/2

NEW Trump is mobilising federal troops against US citizens with no clear legal basis Yet the president’s latest constitutional outrage barely registers on the news By me, at @prospectmagazine.co.uk (With added Wodehouse.) www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/law/th...

My latest.

Donald practices dressing up for his birthday parade.

Finally a genuine Brexit Benefit all Remainers can celebrate! 🤣🤣🤣🎉🎉🎉 "The judges said that adding 20% to private school fees would not have been possible under EU law..."

Marina Hyde is our greatest living writer: 'It was only a few months ago that Fox News bobblehead Sean Hannity did a fawning joint chat with the pair, telling them and his viewers: “I feel like I’m interviewing two brothers here.” Yep. Caned and unstAbel.' www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"This is different." Attorney General Pam Bondi denies a double standard between the administration's reaction to the demonstrations in L.A. and their pardoning of January 6th rioters.

Oh.

100% Lie. "He clearly said "I am Senator Padilla and I have a question." This is pure thuggery.

It can happen here. It is happening here.

An elderly maga neighbor asked me a couple of weeks ago how much I paid for an 18 pack of eggs at Walmart. $8.98 I told her. Outrageous she said, Biden has to go. Yesterday she asked me how much I paid. $8.98, I told her. She said, that's not bad at all 🤪😂🤣

The sale of goods produced in illegal Israeli settlements in the OPT are effectively proceeds from crime—so why does the govt still allow the importation of these products into Britain? It’s time for a clear ban on importing settlement goods. End complicity, uphold human rights.

All the nature & wildlife charities & NGOs are appalled by the Planning & Infrastructure Bill, which strips away vital protections for the natural world. So important that Green MPs & peers are resisting this assault on nature in parliament.

Also if writing to BBCITVCh4Sky they will cite as a reason for over platforming that Reform won 10 councils in LE. So remember to say LD’s lead 72 councils, both Lib Dems had Greens had good local elex results - and they both have MORE councillors overall than Reform. LibDems 3600, Reform 800

Israel is out of control. And it has been for a long time. For Starmer to talk about de-escalation whilst continuing to support a genocide is increasingly absurd - and dangerous.

P&O Ferries hires tiny four-person accounting firm to replace KPMG. 4 person firm auditing a giant corporation! Can it resist management pressures? In 2022, P&O illegally sacked 800 workers. Govt did nothing. It hasn't filed statutory accounts at Companies House on time for 3 years. Govt action?

Since leaving office, Liz Truss has somehow contrived to keep rising up the pantheon of worst PMs ever. That's a rare skill.

🌲Ed Sheeran explains to Louis Theroux that he dislikes private jets and prefers trains because "I like the environment, I like trees." We know that this type of messaging from celebrities is hugely impactful. We need far more of this from more stars. As posted by @nowthisimpact.bsky.social

This is from Reeves. No wonder the elite are hopping. They’re having to pay us more: “Real wages have grown more in the first ten months of this Labour Government than in the first ten years of Tory rule”. What’s not to like?

First observation… I thought Rod Hull was back from the dead… Secondly, I don’t think anyone should be surprised to find Nigel Farage’s Reform Party fielding a crank who wants to brand immigrants like they’ve just arrived on a cattle truck at Auschwitz Oh and ‘There’s somebody at the door’

Totally utterly completely indefensible

Just a little reminder in the midst of the debate about budgets, spending reviews, tax, borrowing, and the state of public finances: Brexit costs £40 billion a year in lost tax revenues!

Emily Thornberry, "I have to admit that when Brexit happened I thought the problem of Gibraltar was going to be so difficult that I really couldn't see how we would ever get over it" So basically the UK continues to celebrate the end of FOM with the EU, while Gibraltar is celebrating FOM 👍

The most inspiring chapters in our nation's history came when Americans faced down some of our country's darkest demons. Those moments, like our own, were difficult to live through but also brought the chance to bring out the best in us, with enduring consequences.

Immigrant families are being forced to put up signs saying 'I work in a care home' to escape the racist violence that's been unleashed in Northern Ireland I come from this part of the world and I cannot tell you the sense of profound shame and horror this fills me with. It disgraces us

The frequency of BlueSky engagement has decreased from November 2024 - does this spell the end of the platform? In other news, I'm deeply troubled by the fall off in Christmas Tree sales this January. Is it because forests are too much of a woke liberal echo chamber?

Someone tell me how this is in any way different to a bog-standard authoritarian dictator.

No-one's brain cells are getting out of this era alive
