Piers Morgan is a POS but man is this interview wild - based on the way her tone changes I don't think she realized the implications of what she said until after she said it. If you look closely you can see her realize she is absolutely cooked in real time.

The right-wing reaction to Labour securing a difficult Indian trade deal is a useful reminder. Even if this government was performing better, they'd still brand it a failure. Absolutely no reasoning with the modern British right at all.

Linda McMahon wrote Harvard a letter to which they responded by noting areas that are in need of corrections and then posted it on social media. Great job Harvard!👏👏👏

When Brexiters and right wing media, like The Times, drone on about the importance of a trade deal with Trump and how Brexit gives us an advantage over the EU (hahaha), just remember that context matters. Which is why they always dodge that part. Private Eye is happy to help though.

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

Deeply strange entering middle-age at a time in world history where things are getting measurably worse. Just a continual psychic struggle of “is this fogeyism or are things just not what they used to be?”

My thoughts include... has their cause been co-opted by someone else? Is there funding being made available from another source ... because this looks somewhat disproportionate to me

I'd like to bring this video to your attention. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyco... It's doing pretty significant numbers for what it is, so while I understand sharing it won't make a difference for those knee-deep in the cult of personality, I'd say it has a better-than-average chance of resonating.

I agree with Mr Dunt.... It's nuts! They are trashing any big international organisation's ability to trust any medium + relationship again.

I note with interest right-wing media's total absence of any concerns about prominent BBC presenter Armstrong expressing his highly political opinions. As was always perfectly clear to many of us, the problem was not that Lineker had views, but the fact they didn't approve of his views.

As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about “two-tier sentencing”, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of “two-tier Keir”. The man is a fraud.

Really important article in @foreignaffairs.com by former Ukrainian Defense Secretary Andriy Zagorodnyuk. Its about how Ukraine can fight on effectively without any US aid. It’s key to understand that Trump is full of BS when he says Ukraine has "no cards". www.foreignaffairs.com/ukraine/ukra...

I have written a detailed account of Trump's relationship with Russia. "a reasonable analytical conclusion [is] that Trump has a political debt to the Russians which could prove problematic for him if fully ventilated" Trump is a Russian agent of influence. 1/2 open.substack.com/pub/arthursn...

Today on my LBC Sunday show I interviewed a former Trump adviser. She claimed that Putin wasn’t morally responsible for the war. I challenged her on that claim. She told me she didn’t like me and hung up. And they say the left are snowflakes. Watch the full interview here. youtu.be/tSsV7xyDyfY?...

1. Trump and his Death Eaters cannot tolerate any rival power. Europe, when united, is a major trading and diplomatic bloc. They see Russia (much less of a threat to US hegemony) as an excellent instrument for breaking up Europe, by threat or by force.🧵

Thought experiment for Labour… With over 4yrs and a huge majority, why not stir it up? Pitch your tent defiantly on the liberal lawn, loudly reject the epic failures of Brexit and rightwing immigration ideology and see how many liberal votes you gain instead of chasing Reform into a toxic dead end?
