It’s not an island of strangers. It’s an island estranged from its politicians. Inevitably, because the contempt in which they hold their own supporters is breathtaking.

I’m one of those dodgy immigrants who came here on a spouse visa and got indefinite leave to remain after 12 months. The incalculable harm I have done to the UK includes dedicating my life to public service, educating thousands of British young people, and paying more tax than I’ll ever get back.

Long Covid is real and those affected deserve to be taken seriously. Weaponizing vaccine approval and stigmatizing masks are both bad. Read more here: open.substack.com/pub/johndupu...

Did you know? The bulls in Pamplona's Running of the Bulls are stabbed to death in bullrings afterward. Bullfighting is not a spectacle, it's a slaughter. #BanBullfighting #SanFermin

vital point lacking, usual: by any intelligent standard, care work is not 'low skilled'

The Trump family & rich friends will never suffer from the deprivations & suffering that he will inflict upon American families

NHS spending 'maxed out' This is a con. Money syphoned off to private profit. Rich get richer. Poor get poorer and health inequalities widen. This was bad from the Tories. It's heartbreaking from Labour. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

when you say “half of the country voted for this” you are making the fascists seem more popular than they are. don’t do it.

Time for England to BAN snares! 'Repost' if you agree!

This is incredible. This computer science professor makes his students play a game that simulates the risks and repercussions of getting Long COVID, and then he's like, hey anybody want a mask? And: "approximately 95 to 100% of students who’ve played the game now wear masks in his classroom."

Helen, You are my MP. I have heard you say *nothing* about the deliberate starvation of 1.7M people in Gaza. This is your responsibility - as 1 of only 650 in our sovereign parliament in a country that can and must comat this now. And you are an MP in the party of power to boot. Do something.

NEW: Amazing scenes in Bucharest, Romania tonight. Tens of thousands on the streets of the capital pledging their support to Europe and their opposition to Russia, ahead of elections next week. (🎥 Daractenus)

“If you take money away from people who haven’t got very much, you’ll get more homelessness,” warn campaigners bylinetimes.com/2025/05/01/k...

Stephen Miller says they are “actively looking at” suspending the writ of habeas corpus, which is only allowed when the US has been invaded or during an insurrection, which would not allow people to challenge their incarceration in court if they are arrested and detained.

A reminder that when the Sycamore Gap tree was cut down people immediately started blaming immigrants and teenagers... It was neither. It was two white Englishmen in their 30s.

This is what fascists want: it’s eugenic, abled, racist, sexist, etc

Happy Europe Day! 🇪🇺

Young man, there's no need to feel down, I said Young man, pick yourself off the ground, I said Young man, 'cause you're in a new town There's no need to be unhappy It's fun to shout at the

Excellent interview by @daniellebeckman.bsky.social and @davidjoffe64.bsky.social on the impacts of COVID on the brain. We don’t talk about the cognitive impacts of repeat Covid infections enough. Long term it’s simply not sustainable. We need clean air and good public health education on masks!

Israel has announced Gaza's survivors will be driven into a concentration camp. They will be left with a choice: leave Gaza, or die. No genocide was so documented or confessed to as it actually happened 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/gaza-will-...

Today we changed the number of covid dead on the banner at the memorial wall. We will not forget them. ❤️ #CovidIsNotOver

"If Covid damaged our immune systems, we would be seeing record outbreaks of other diseases." That was the argument in 2022. Three years later, we're having the worst resurgence of flu, tuberculosis, measles, and whooping cough in generations.

Scientists estimate higher rate of new-onset diabetes after #COVID than in general population Of 4.4 million COVID-19 patients, 1.4% had new-onset diabetes, with 0.8% being type 2 and 0.02% type 1. www.cidrap.umn.edu/c...

Who thinks the government must buy back the reservoirs and immediately renationalise water companies. Labour promised change and delivered none of it.

1 . Gaza is being annihilated. Thousands upon thousands of children are dead. Entire bloodlines erased. And the United States is the supplier, sponsor, and shield of the killing. Netanyahu is not a defender. He’s a butcher. A fascist running from jail who’s building his legacy on mass graves.

I know that more people understand than let on that some of the more dangerous viruses—such as EBV, HIV, and SARS-CoV-2—do “invisible” or subclinical damage that takes years to physically manifest or be obvious. It can be frightening to consider. But denial isn’t the answer.

There it is…
