Just been invited to join a band as lead guitarist, had to decline because of #MECFS 😟

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

New Trailer for the #MECFS #GreatestMedicalScandal Explainer Video. Includes clips from the full video that highlights the Stigma, Abuse, Bad Science and Harm.

The USA is no longer an ally.

Today's eco friendly transport, fueled by mushrooms and lichen. 🇫🇮

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

The data could not be more clear: our public services will collapse without immigration. People desperately need to come here & we desperately need people, too. Me, for @metrouk.bsky.social metro.co.uk/2025/02/19/n...

In principle there should be a vote in Parliament when troops are deployed. I’m confident all sides of the House are likely to agree with the Prime Minister apart from those Trump bootlickers in Reform.

💥Peter Kellner: "I quite like using numbers to make sense of the what is going on. Yet sometimes they are not enough. If they were, the fact that Brexit has cost Britain’s economy 4-5% of GDP would be a major national scandal." A 🧵 with some of the most exposing stats from Peter's latest blog👇 1/

💥 Well how about that. After years of Brexiteers saying we had to leave the EU to avoid being forced into a European army… … it turns out that Brits are fine with the idea. With the UK explicitly included. A plurality of Tory voters support it - and even a fair chunk of Reform. How times change…

I was thinking about two things today. The first was that it’s quite odd that countries of many millions of people have a single person as chief executive. a) it seems like a hangover from having kings. We just select them differently. b) it’s quite a gamble putting all your eggs in one basket.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

This is fascism.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

I remember well Brexiters claiming it was Nato that kept the peace, not the EU. How hollow that sounds now.

Why focusing on (manageable) pain is functionally unhelpful, and what to do about it. #AlexanderTechnique www.alexander-technique.london/2025/02/13/w...

NEW: Explosive new revelations from ex MI6 spy. Why *did* Boris Johnson block the publication of the Russia Report before 2019 Gen Election? Finally some answers.. Russian military intelligence - the GRU - targeted the Brexit vote. "Money changed hands" 1/ podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/f...

Writing this with a heavy heart: the refugee citizenship ban is the single most unconscionable policy Labour has proposed since it entered power. It’s the moment that I felt my support for this administration begin to crumble inews.co.uk/opinion/colu...

If you have to be the far-right to beat the far-right, they have won. I would have thought this was blatantly obvious.

The government wants to make Britain “safer, more secure and more prosperous.” => Safer: join Europol & EU cooperation against terrorism Secure: join European security & defence policy Prosperous: join single market & customs union

Brexit killed the tories and will kill Labour if not reverted. I have never seen any policy stance so obtuse and hands-down suicidal as the @teamlabouruk.bsky.social refusal to call for a second referendum. I am sorry, but stupidity in politics deserves to be electoral punished.

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social chasing the fash vote. They've lost mine.
