They were being exhausting then. They are really stupid now. (That is a polite interpretation.)

Every day Trump utters another half dozen or more lies. He is a mentally ill sociopath and pathological liar. It is disgusting and absurd that he is the American president.

this is not a #Poem they'll take the PIP, then tell you to work — and in your own piss-soaked clothes you drag your body to an interview for a job that doesn't exist except in the minds of those who eat subsidised food in government buildings. #PIPCuts #DisabilityJustice #GlitchCore #Poetry

🚨IT’S NOT TOO LATE for the government to change course. Keir Starmer is being advised to urgently pause the Government's plans to cut disability & health benefits by Parliament's work & pensions committee who say they should not go ahead without a comprehensive impact assessment Contact your MP,NOW

Has everyone signed this? ( I think I may have signed this 2x - but never mind 😏) I’m in disbelief that we still have to fight for this!! I thought this had been done and dusted decades ago!! 👇

Heartening to see the people across America speak up.

HONESTY. INTEGRITY. DECENCY. #June14th-ObamaAppreciationDay

Whilst Paul Marshall has been on a lengthy strop about 'woke', pouring gazillions into racist media, his hedge fund partner Ian Wace has quietly been creating and sustaining something of real, positive value: on.ft.com/403uAxv

This is how it should be done: calm, dispassionate, impeccably sourced — and utterly devastating. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Serious question pre #KimJongTrump has any other sitting US President abused their position so blatantly and publicly to enhance their personal wealth❓ Asking for a bemused civilised World 🤷🏼‍♂️

As climate scientists, we can only tell you why climate change is happening and how severe the consequences will be. It takes voters to choose politicians who will listen and enact policies to avoid the worst possible outcomes.

A few pics from last night's opening party at Hidden Door Festival 2025 The sun is shining down on The Paper Factory tonight and we're gearing up for an evening of high-energy entertainment. See you there! #HiddenDoor2025

"Even in response to Sella’s resignation the Society could only manage “Professor Andrea Sella is an exemplary science communicator. The Royal Society greatly regrets his decision to return the 2014 Michael Faraday Prize.” – happily side-stepping the main issue."

It just can’t be said enough, so unacceptable! “Without the help of the United States, we will have more losses,” Zelenskyy told Raddatz in Kyiv last week. abcnews.go.com/Politics/zel...

This is so feeble. The BBC is worried that it has “low trust issues” with Reform voters. But Reform voters are "low trust" in established media anyway - that's why they vote Reform. Also, while outlets that tell them what they want to hear 100% of the time are bashing The BBC, nothing will fix that.

That's NOW. Call the Foreign Office on 02070085000 & demand information on what the UK is doing to ensure the safety of the Madleen crew that have been abducted by Israel. They are on a British flagged vessel. And their interception & kidnapping is a WAR CRIME. Do your bit. Phone ASAP. ✊🏽📞

'We do not find any evidence that accommodative strategies reduce radical right support. If anything, our results suggest that they lead to more voters defecting to the radical right.' Labour, are you listening?

No evidence. Politicized justice to save their asses. I have not the vocabulary to express my loathing and contempt for these people, who have absolutely no shame, no honor, no integrity, no respect for the constitution. Despicable, vile, criminal, corrupt and cruel.
