Since Trump took office, his family has made $2.9 billion in crypto. Again, this is a level of corruption so cartoonish, so obvious & on the surface, that it seems to have stunned everyone to silence.

Looks like the Mirror has caught whatever virus the BBC has got. "Reform swept to victory..."? I don't fucking think so. They have fewer than 700 councillors out of around 17000 in England. Meaning around 4% of seats locally and less than 1% in the Commons. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

True. Reform have less than 1% of MPs. That's how much media coverage they should get.

Genuinely the stupidest motherfucker in the history of stupid motherfuckers. Aside from the question of how these could be administered and what counts as "produced elsewhere," the inevitable retaliatory tariffs would absolutely kill foreign box office for US studios. www.cnn.com/2025/05/04/m...

Farage is always claiming Reform are the "real" opposition. Which is of course bollocks. The real opposition is the second biggest party in parliament. But if Labour don't take last night's warning seriously, Reform may be not just oppostion but government. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Literally, what is she talking about? Is she ok with the kids "buying" Tylenol, Adderol and Xanax, except when it's "laced with fentanyl"? Two of the three are prescription only, so you can't just "buy" them. And as for the 258 million claim...let's not even waste our time on that.... #NorthKorean

It would be good if at least some of the energy poured into scrutinising hateful past comments by Irish hiphop groups could be focused on what is currently going on inside the main party currently leading all of the UK opinion polls bylinetimes.com/2025/04/30/r...

Israel has dropped more bombs in Gaza than fell on London, Dresden & Hamburg combined during WWII [𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘈𝘧𝘧𝘢𝘪𝘳𝘴]. Read that & consider that Gaza is, on average, only 5 miles wide & 25 miles in length. Life expectancy has dropped from 75.5 years in 2023 to 40.6 years now [𝘓𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘵]. Genocide.

I have a feeling Joanne hangs around women's toilets waiting for trans women to arrive in the same way Farage stands waiting to count the dinghies arriving at Dover. All a bit bloody weird imo.

“Ah good, you’re awake. Please don’t bother trying to move. Now, I just have a couple of questions for you. If you answer truthfully, this can all be over quickly, but if I think you’re lying, I will introduce you to my friend Klaus over there, and trust me, you don’t want that.”

22-04-25 Dear The Stupid Labour Party, stop sucking up to Reform voters. Instead of increasing child poverty because ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ why not tackle old age affluence instead. Some of us with dwindling incomes are sitting on £££ in property value. Fuck us, not kids. Yours, A STATE PENSIONER

He’s got away with untold crimes, lies & offences. He’s achieved the highest office in the land. Twice. He’s lining his pockets on an industrial scale & persecuting his enemies for fun. But he’s still a miserable, bitter, humourless & furious man. Because deep inside, he knows exactly who he is.

Sumy is tonight being hit by Russian ballistic missiles again - a day after Putin’s Palm Sunday massacre killed 34 locals, including 2 children in the city. Every day Trump attacks Zelensky & is silent on Putin, it emboldens the terrorist. This is Russian genocide, now enabled by Trump.

Max Bethell is the Reform UK candidate for Bakewell, Derbyshire. This isn't acceptable for a person standing to be councillor. We've called on Branch Chair Jeremy Ruse we urge him to request this candidate stands down. Also @reformuk.bsky.social

Happy Birthday, Julie Christie 4/14/1940. Pacino called her "most poetic of all actresses." Worked with & around celebrities for 10 yrs in L.A., only starstruck twice. Encountered Christie in theater lobby of charity performance of Sweeney Todd we were both attending & was very uncool! #filmsky 📽

My ★★★★ review of Show Boat boxd.it/9p5x43 Iconic musical problematic to modern sensibilities, but pretty progressive at times. Wildly entertaining first act, Paul Robeson & Hattie McDaniel steal ecery scene. More traditional final act. So many classic tunes! #filmsky 📽 Criterion Collection 1021

Jeez. A clip has emerged of Donald Trump in the Oval Office discussing how people made money in the recent market fluctuations as a result of his tariffs. "He made two-and-a-half billion today, and he made nine hundred million, that's not bad!"

Regardless of your political views, think we can agree the stuff being put in to Reform UK local groups is horrific. Here’s Reform UK Bishop Auckland, run by Kenny Hope the candidate for Delves Lane, County Durham where Farage just visited. Reform UK get your house in order.

Labour's decision to give Donald Trump an "unprecedented" second state visit, including a specific invitation to visit Scotland, looks more ridiculous by the day. We must never bow down to the politics of hate, division and self-destruction that Trump represents.

Reminder: Palestinians in the Gaza Strip remain “trapped, bombed and starved” say 6 aid agencies, as Israel continues to block food, medical aid and fuel for 2 million people including children, the sick and the elderly. It amounts to collective punishment, which is a war crime
