I don’t like to criticise Starmer, because the available alternatives are dreadful; and I did vote Labour, as ever. But ‘becoming an island of strangers’? Jesus Christ, get a grip, you clown! You don’t beat Reform by being Farage-lite 🤦‍♂️🤮 #labour

Need to go to Heathrow next week again for work. How is it possible that the cost of the trains just one way is notably more expensive than the total cost of return flights with British Airways? That just can’t be right #netzero #climatechange

"Nigel Farage is a political fraud ‘cosplaying’ as working-class champion" who "makes Liz Truss look like a politician with integrity." Excellent summary. @paulnowaktuc.bsky.social

If we’d been shown this headline in 2016, we may have struggled to believe such a mess could be possible. But here we are, 8 years on, being asked to consider concessions on fish and opportunities for young people. And the inescapable crappiness and tedium of it all is.. well.. just so very sad.

We desperately need housing supply. But we also desperately need interesting, innovative, well built developments and new towns. We need not only to talk about how much we're building, but what and how. When we only talk about the former we just get shoddily built, identikit houses which won't last.

Someone needs to invent some kind of online calculator whereby we Brits can put in our recent healthcare appointments/meds/experiences and it’ll calculate what it would cost on average in the USA. Just to hammer home how bloody lucky we are to have the NHS and how fiercely we need to protect it.

A huge amount of effort is currently being expended into trying to make the prospect of Nigel Farage becoming Prime Minister appear to be anything other than a ludicrous joke. Here’s why www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/nigel-fara...

“Migrants, illegal or legal, weren’t responsible for austerity. They weren’t responsible for Brexit. They weren’t responsible for Liz Truss’ failure. Because of populist policies in the ‘30s Hitler was elected. If we follow the same blaming of migrants we will go the same way” #bbcqt

If that disgusting racist and grifting liar Nigel Farage shouldn't have been on Question Time even once, nevermind 38 times. Give this a Like, or better yet a RP.

IMPORTANT I'm in full support of the Guardian/Observer journos striking today for the future of The Observer, threatened by The Scott Trust’s plan to sell to Tortoise Media. No logic behind the decision, while The Observer risks becoming a stripped-down website Follow @carolecadwalla.bsky.social

It’s notable, but not exactly surprising, that so many* of the supposedly ‘sensible’ Brexiters have turned out to be mad, racist, hideous and/or stupid Farage fans. Montgomerie, a particularly pungent proof of this particular pudding, has been stealing a living for years. *every single one of them

Farage is trying to get MPs to put abortion front and centre. This is how we got Brexit. The electorate didn't care about it until billionaires paid Farage to scream it into an issue, creating a straw mam for society's ills. And we as democracy, foolishly fell for it.

Having bought the US election, Musk now wants to buy ours. This ketamine-infused menace thinks global domination is his to buy. And Farage is grasping for his money.These repulsive men weaponise prejudice for power. They feed off ignorance, resentment and inadequacy. If they succeed, we have failed.
