Look beyond Trump and Musk's public blowout to the bigger problem: the infiltration of Big Money in our politics. It has corrupted our democracy — creating a vicious cycle that funnels more wealth and power to those at the top while drowning out the needs of regular Americans.

This guy on the train is insisting to a group that Sting's surname IS Sting and he merely dropped his first name for the stage. I've heard women talking about this kind of unfounded male confidence. I don't know whether I should be intervening or if that makes me part of the problem.

Reform’s chairman mistaking a procurement framework for government waste tells you everything you need to know about how their councils will be run: loud, wrong, and completely out of their depth.

We all knew that over reliance on agency staff in the NHS came at a great cost! It was always welcome to hear that Labour would crack down on this by cutting agency staff spending by 30%. And the results are in - a saving of £1bn in the 2024-25 year that can be reinvested into services. 1/2

Once again, we seem intent on holding two views of migrants: that they refuse to integrate and must be forced, & that they find it too easy to integrate & we should make it harder

Landfills and environmental racism are a longstanding interest of mine, and the Trump admin is really bringing back the good old days of completely unregulated dumping of waste in communities of color.

I decided to become a journalist aged fifteen after reading ‘1984’ and being appalled at the thought that governments could rewrite history. Orwell knew the USSR did it. Now China pretends the Tiananmen massacre didn’t happen. It did. I was there, and saw it for myself.

Insects are having a moment ... "The declines witnessed by Janzen – and described by others around the world – are part of what some ecologists call a 'new era' of ecological collapse, where rapid extinctions occur in regions that have little direct contact with people."

The 'DEI' stuff brings out how ideologically thin and reactive Blue Labour is. You might expect a 'conservative Labour' tendency to be looking to e.g. Ruskin, Morris, G.D.H.Cole, even Tawney for inspiration, but they'd rather repeat MAGA slogans that don't even make sense this side of the Atlantic.

With a knife's edge majority & assuming less than 100% turnout, this is very unfortunate news for the majority of Poles who didn't vote for this Trump-aligned rightwinger. But it's also, & not negligibly, bad news for Ukraine & the rest of Eastern Europe.

Ukraine could’ve launched the attack on civilian population centers, like Russia does to them daily. Instead, they chose a strictly military target - the very bombers being used to kill Ukrainian civilians. A brilliant operation solely designed to defend their own people.

whenever I see a Tory shadow minister talking about how bad crime is I’m reminded that they got rid of 1/2m years of policing experience, 800 police stations, 600 courtrooms, 1000s of probation officers and added just 482 prison places What the f*** did they expect to happen?

It’s odd to me that “we need to restore Christian values to Europe” is not coded as anti-Semitic even though it is, quite literally, anti-semitism’s original form.

Yes it's much bleaker. Back then department budgets were coming off a decade of increased spending. Now they've been through 15 years of painful spending reviews. There's nothing left to cut.
