I swear every time I see a push notification from BBC news it’s some version of: ‘Reform may have lost an election/suffered a massive blow/erupted into civil war…but here is why its actually good news for Farage’s party’

Greta Thunberg’s Freedom Flotilla didn’t carry nearly enough aid to meet Palestinian needs—but that’s not the point. The fact that the IDF blocks even the smallest gesture of help speaks volumes about their intentions toward Palestinian kids.

If Richard Tice was to spontaneously combust this morning and be reduced to a pile of ashes on live TV I presume it would be a race between Laura Kuenssberg and Chris Mason to see who could be the first to announce that 'This is good news for Reform!'. #bbclaurak

Play the BBC Reform darts game-Throw at any part of the board and you will hit a section that says 'This is good for Reform'-But if you hit the bullseye you get 'This is great for Reform!'. It's the game that is taking Chris Mason by storm-Play it every day on #r4today and Sundays on #bbclaurak !!

The Labour government is looking to extend the ban on bottom trawling to cover 42 protected areas, covering 30,000sqkm. The practice drags nets over the sea floor and can cause irreversible damage. A consultation will launch today and run until 1st September. www.gov.uk/government/n...

Really pleased the government has listened to my and others' long-standing campaigning and will require solar panels on all new homes—a no-brainer policy. Now we must go further: ensure new homes have proper insulation, flood resilience, and protection from overheating.

🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: Over 400 drones, more than 40 missiles were launched by the Russians. 80 people were injured, and some may still be under the debris. And unfortunately, not everyone in the world condemns such attacks. This is exactly what Putin exploits.
