I want to know more about this anxious toaster and its clearly tense relationship with its companion kettle.

There may be finer things than walking through Edinburgh on a bright, spring day but it’s hard to think of them right now. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

With everything on a knife edge here is an assessment of what might be done to salvage the situation and what Europeans can do now. (free) open.substack.com/pub/samf/p/t...?

Keir Starmer embraces President Zelensky as he arrives at Downing St.

Lie after lie has been told this week about how the Ukraine war started, from the Kremlin and the White House. Here's our News Agents video essay which explains the truth, and spells out why Trump clings so close to Putin and lives in his warped reality. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cufM...

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend. I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

If I told you that the Bank of England upgraded its growth forecasts yesterday, would you believe me? It did.... i HAvE nOt gOne CRazY - honest This is a hill I am prepared to die on - the BoE and others (all central banks, IMF, OECD etc etc) report their "forecasts" in a terrible way 🧵

Do you ever get the feeling that Earth gravity is...a bit much? Tripping and falling should not be as big of a deal as it is.

Absolute garbage of a headline - what just happened is that a bill to protect vulnerable young people was voted through www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

for the potato fears not death

Cannot overstate how much I agree with this. Edward Norton on John Fruiscinate being the GOAT youtube.com/watch?v=6nX3...

Did he make a “donation” like the others?

Having not read the sentencing remarks, I’m cautious about rushing to conclusions, but on its face Feathers McGraw appears to be a prime example of the rampant sentence inflation that has led to chronic overcrowding in our zoos and the unedifying spectacle of animals being released early.

This remains, and I say this advisedly, one of the best exchanges I have ever seen on social media

Destroy this myth. Please share if you have visited and researched in a library this past year! RT And give a shout out to your favorite library you have ever visited.

a middle-aged friend of mine who runs his own company told me that his young gen-z employees staged an intervention like christopher moltisanti and told him he has to stop wearing slim fit pants

In July, I FOI'd the Home Office for the full breakdown of spending on the Rwanda scheme I was refused because the government planned to publish the data in future, and today is the day. These numbers are in millions www.gov.uk/government/p...

I am not a Christian like Sheila Hancock but I would argue that, in a very real sense, Christ WAS cancelled because of what he said - and in the most emphatic way

Pete cooked Elon

Musk has now threatened the leaders of Canada,Brazil, Germany. X helped create a riot in the UK. Now it seems he doesn't want the UK to make its own legal decisions. Time to act?

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.

🧵SALT🧵 It's been snowing in the UK and the road gritters are out in force, begging the question: Have you ever wondered where that grit actually COMES from? The answer is more magical, beautiful and fascinating than you probably realised. 1/14
