Elon Musk's pinned tweet right now.

Anyone noticed that the Brexiters who used to mockingly crow that "David Cameron warned there'd be a third world war" have gone awfully fucking quiet.

He nails it.

Yup. They’re normalising Nazi salutes. Zero doubt now.

Donald Trump just fired the USA's most senior military commander. I wonder why?

And now Elon Musk is calling an astronaut “fully retarded” - this spectacle is truly absurd

Recently renewed my @bylinetimes.bsky.social subscription. Supporting their journalism feels like a small thing I can do in the face of the current shitstorm. Between this and the #6Nations, that's my weekend sorted

Read it whilst you can…

In the 1960's the richest people in the USA paid 91% tax and the richest people in the UK 82%. Now many of the richest pay an average of 0% tax most years.

God moves in mysterious ways, his wonders to behold.

Have a great weekend. It could be our last.

Amazon gains full creative control of Bond. I'm not even particularly a fan, but it was impressive to see decades of fairly rigid quality control. You can now kiss that goodbye under this simpering halfwit. Just more sludge to be fed into the content engine. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/fe...

They are deliberately crossing the red lines, in order to make the unacceptable commonplace and, eventually, acceptable again.

Zelensky is perhaps the defining figure of our age. Brave, ingenious, pragmatic and defined by his convictions. They hate him because he kills fascists.

Slava Ukraini. ✊🇺🇦

The benefits of our Special Relationship with the USA can now be found in the same bin as the benefits of Brexit and the competence of the last Tory government.

One president hasn’t held an election because his country is at war, fighting for its very existence. Another president refused to accept the result of an election, inciting a riot on the Capitol and pardoning those who murdered people who stood up for democracy. I know which one is a dictator.

listen to this. Elon can barely form a sentence right now.

Bannon has a bit of a "I can't afford to sue all of you if you call it a Nazi salute" half heartedness to it that Musk's didn't.

Once more, Farage is claiming that he stood up in the European Parliament in early 2014 and predicted the Ukraine war. In fact, he stood up in September 2014, AFTER the annexation of Crimea, and blamed Europe for Putin's actions. I kept the receipts. Listen here 👇🏽 open.spotify.com/episode/77cz...

I keep trying to work out why rich white people are so furious they want to destroy their own country: richer than they've ever been, more power than they've ever had. they control the majority media and all I can come up with is that they lost their minds when a black man became President.

I also didn't see any comment on Putin, who Farage has described as the leader he most admires.

"‘Inactivity’ is it? Here we go again. Try living in poverty, overworked with piss-take pay, without access to healthy food, time to exercise or cook, and then maybe the ‘experts’ can come back to us"... Let's not mention the 'Let it rip Tories' either www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Tanks off my lawn, Simon Hart.

Trump tells more lies about Ukraine: "We had a deal based on rare earth and things, but they broke that deal. They broke it two days ago, we had a deal." Wrong. Trump proposed that Ukraine hand over $500 billion worth of natural resources, without any US security guarantees. Zelensky rejected it.

Nathan Gill, 51, ex UKIP, ex Brexit Party, and the former leader of Reform UK in Wales, has been charged with nine bribery offences after an investigation led by the Metropolitan police’s counter-terrorism command. It gets better apple.news/AZFUaz-S1REu...

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

So Nigel Farage has chosen to explain away Trump’s outrageous remarks about President Zelensky instead of doing the right thing and condemning them. Deeply disappointing but not at all surprising. He sounds like a spokesman for Trump. He certainly doesn’t speak for Britain.

Where’s Nigel?

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.

Zelensky was willing to sacrifice himself to save his country. Trump sacrificed his country to save himself.

Never forget According to the National Audit Office (NAO), as of June 2022 approximately £25.7 billion had actually been spent on the entire Test and Trace programme, with an estimated lifetime cost of £29.3 billion.

This is real. Unbelievable but real.
