They met at a race relations conference in 1968. She wanted to be sure he loved art before she agreed to go on a date with him.

Hey media, it looks like you’re feeling guilty these days bcuz you didn’t cover, in real time, Biden’s cognitive decline. Well I have a great way you can make up for it: RIGHT NOW, IN REAL TIME, COVER TRUMP’S COGNITIVE DECLINE. Don’t make the same mistake twice. Thanks media.

No, you’re not crazy. They are deporting brown people and importing white people.

One of the surest ways to lose your own liberties is to deny them to others.

Adam Ramsay recounts how his parents' adoption of beavers has transformed their upland farm into a rich, biodiverse haven for birds, mammals, fish and amphibians

Been here and it's genuinely wonderful.

Remember when we realized dinosaurs were really just giant birds and people were like "oh well that's not very terrifying anymore" and then everyone who's ever met a goose was like GIIIIIRRRLLLLL

Your School House Rock moment.....🤔

Trump is a toddler? This explains everything… (Live stand up clip)

Starmer’s immigration focus is the dumbest, stupidest piece of political manoeuvring I’ve seen in a long time. His rhetoric is going to split his coalition and whatever he promises will only drive the racists to demand more. You can’t placate them. It’s a losing strategy.

The claim by Yvette Cooper that there is a link between immigration and higher levels of inactivity (related to sickness and disability) has absolutely no basis in evidence or data. Just retrofitting the evidence to the policy...

Love this show!

If guilty people don't have Due Process rights, then innocent people don't have Due Process rights, because we don't know if they're innocent or guilty until we have a trial or hearing.

It's been 8 years since the iconic moment Tom Holland lip-synced "Umbrella" by Rihanna for Zendaya. 🎥

This is about all of us. Never forget that.

Mother of autistic boy left with £10,000 debt after breaching DWP rules by £1.92 a week. The "cliff-edge” approach has inflicted cruelty on over 100,000 carers. Rules must change. Govts need to divert focus to tax dodgers, corporate crooks, the City.

I think every time Trump reposts an Ai pic of himself, we post a better-looking one of Obama doing the same thing. It would annoy the shit out of him. 🥰

All Of This! The Constitution Says This Is Illegal!

The country thats still defending is winning, the country that is breaking out tanks from WW2 in storage and attacking on donkeys and lost 900,000 men and got kicked out of Kyiv and begs NK for troops and Iran for weapons, isn’t. youtu.be/lvVI64jVXuI

Rubio publicly criticizing an ally for cracking down on right-wing extremism. And Germany hitting back. We are in a new world

This post from Lewis Goodall a few months ago was prescient: Labour's reluctance to genuinely go on the offensive against Reform *and its policies* has got us to where we are today. And their belief that simply adopting Reform policies will protect them is naive at best, incredibly stupid at worst.

Tonight in Glastonbury. A little bit of lilac magic in the sky.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.
