Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating. This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens. (Even better: Tesla will hate this)

I’m telling you again - Europe has a massive brain gain opportunity sitting here. Trump is going to absolutely shaft US science & we could & should be there to hoover up the talent.

❌A social security system that allows children to fall into poverty is not a good system. 🟢It's time to ensure everyone has an equal starting point and that nobody is left behind with a universal basic income. @lornaslater.bsky.social on #bbcdn

It is horrible to see Labour, Tories and Reform all competing with one another to see who can be the most hostile to refugees and migrant communities. We must be a welcoming country that offers support and solidarity to people in need rather than demonising them. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Denying refugees citizenship simply on the grounds that they arrived here “illegally” on small boats when there are no legal routes for most to use takes cynicism to new heights. If Govt thinks such performative cruelty will see off Reform, they’re wrong - it’s more likely to strengthen it

If this were Just Stop Oil, there'd have been dozens of arrests, furious denunciations in the billionaire press and, perhaps, long jail sentences.

The Anti Defamation League has completely lost its plot. Elon's Nazi salute has emboldened the far right like a "Stand back and stand by" for 2025. The fact that they won't disavow Nazi supporters makes anyone who supports them okay with Nazis. Democrats need to hammer that point.
