“The thing that we all insisted wasn’t happening and scolded people, and agitated for their blacklisting, arrest and exclusion from the public square for saying was happening, that thing we all said was cynical terrorist agitprop by gullible fools? That thing? Well, we would like it to stop now.”

See, this is the kind of thing that makes me think there’s bullshit going on: there’s a sudden need to identify why the university sector is going kaboom, and it can’t be politicians. So

43% of England universities heading to bankruptcy. Staff sacked, depts closed, leading academics leaving. Major exporter disabled by govt cuts, freeze on fees (most European countries don't charge), limits on foreign students. Crisis manufactured by govts. What chance of rebuilding economy?

Reform are nakedly just stooges for the fossil fuel industry, but we're gluttons for punishment in this country so I expect we'll have to wait until people have flammable tap water before they realise it might have been a bad idea to invite these vampires in.

🚨BREAKING: The new Reform Mayor for Lincolnshire has said she will MEET with a fracking company to discuss extracting gas from the county - claiming it will 'save money for taxpayers.' 92% of Reform's donations come from oil/gas interests. Who else thinks Reform is just a mouthpiece for Big Oil?

Having read one book about their wrecking campaign and the winning general election one that followed, I can assure you these lads are absolutely blown away by their own political genius. Constantly astonished by how smart they are. What’s happening now will make zero sense, to them.

There is literally nothing more useless to our energy infrastructure than a privatised renewables company - the green energy revolution is not only a chance to wean ourselves off expensive, polluting, and finite fossil fuels, but to cut the middle man out of energy generation and retail forever.

A minor symptom here: mean-as-fuck right wing reactionaries with no ideas creating absurd new authoritarian laws. Silly right? Well, it’s less funny when Norsefire are polling well ahead of the government and are ready to pick up and use the huge arsenal of authoritarian flag-waving horseshit.

The west's crime with regards to the Genocide of Palestinians is not silence, it's active and enthusiastic participation. It's sending arms, it's providing intel, it's obfuscating and denying clear genocidal intent. The FT admitting to only the silence is a part of that obfuscation

Best thing about this is it's clearly a function of fptp and unpopularity of all the other options rather than any kind of mass support for reform - landslide on 29%! Absurd! - but starmerites can't really point that out because that's exactly how they won too.

‼️ CONFIRMED | Keir Starmer suffered worst defeat of any new PM on record, losing 65% of Labour's seats. In 1977, just two years before being evicted from power, Labour lost 48% of the council seats it was defending. Starmer just lost a whopping 65% 😱

It’s the same decades long scam across all Western countries. Fear the extreme right while the monied Center shifts more and more to the right. And God forbid you advocate for a third party. 30 years of this and what a world we’ve made.

UPDATE from the attacked Gaza aid ship: They're trying to enter Maltese territory because of damage to the ship, and fears of a possible second attack. The Maltese Coast Guard is allegedly blocking them. "I am just following orders from higher authorities," an officer is heard over the radio.
