Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

Proud to join the inaugural meeting of The Hague Group — a nine-nation coalition with @progintl.bsky.social — committed to enforcing ICJ & ICC rulings with coordinated sanctions on Israel. A historic step toward real accountability for genocide, apartheid and occupation in Palestine.

To all those replying saying "This should be a front page correction". Why post this at me?? Go to IPSO.co.uk/making-a-complaint Complain about the original story and the correction and explain why it should be on the front page. Takes 5 minutes. And don't think they don't notice/care. They do

After 15 months of genocide in Gaza, a ceasefire has been declared — but the US, UK & others must be held accountable for arming these atrocities. We’ll keep speaking out until the siege lifts, aid flows, schools & hospitals are rebuilt, the Occupation ends & Palestine is free.

Gaza’s death toll exceeds 186,000 (The Lancet), Israel’s PM faces an ICC arrest warrant & Israel is on trial for genocide at the ICJ. Yet the UK government continues selling arms. Proud to join Palestine Solidarity Campaign & StW in Coventry & demand a full arms embargo & sanctions on Israel.

Shocking crisis in the England & Wales justice system per the below. 👇 But how did Wales get here? By its people, elected politicians, and democratic institutions having absolutely no say in any of it. Needs to change. Scotland and Northern Ireland wouldn’t tolerate it.👇🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #Wales #Cymru

I have no idea why Prince William is sitting down with a rapist and convicted felon. I don’t give a single shit he’s a working Royal. When men sit down with rapists and smile for cameras you’re normalising rape.

Word of the morning is ‘williwaw’ (19th century): a sudden violent squall or a toppling gust of wind. Goes well with ‘thunderplump’: a sudden downpour that soaks you to the skin in seconds.

Here Turner describes Tim Montgomerie as "thoughtful and moral" - and then goes on to quote him saying he joined Reform to fight the "Islamification of Britain". Times columnists absolutely fine with racism as long as it's the right sort of racism. www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...

All this chat of Labour ‘reset’ and defeating populism by ‘delivery’ Hope am wrong but pretty certain that’s disastrous strategy Farage et al offer a story about the world with goodies and baddies. This can be defeated with a compelling alternative vision of the future, not targets and bromides
