The whole "my country is full" nonsense is quite a lazy trope but there is no doubt that things feel fuller than ever - and the reason for that is not anything to do with net migration. It is cars. In the UK the number of cars registered is going up by 17% per year and now stands at 41.2million.

Virginia was one of the very first to speak out against Epstein and Maxwell, and their troupe of ultra-wealthy abusers. She displayed a legendary level of bravery. Her family reports that the trauma she lived with was too much for her to endure. Remember her name: Virginia Giuffre

It's gonna be ugly for a minute, but man I don't think picking fights like this with the judiciary is gonna go well for these morons.

International politics has a lot to learn from science. Not least that the overarching secret is co-operation which provides benefit for all! BBC News - Open University scientist given Moon samples from China mission - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Shooting birds is not a "sport"; it's a cruel and outdated pastime that has no place in a modern, compassionate society.

A more accurate definition could not possibly exist!

Hear no evil, hear all evil, hear some evil.

Trump is no ally of Europe. It is now time for European leaders to step in and offer Ukraine all the military support it needs to win this war and remove Russia to its original borders. Europeans need to be prepared for sacrifice or Europe is lost. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

uh oh what’s the fifth panel gonna be

NEW from @nytimes.com: A bone-chilling account. A Venezuelan man detained alongside the 238 sent to El Salvador on March 15 seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth. His name isn't among the names of those sent to CECOT that day and no one spotted him among those men. He's just... gone.

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.

Of course they are. They are all feeding from the same trough.

Trump is ramping up his trade wars and crashing the global economy. He's not sparing the UK from his tariffs, so why should we roll out the red carpet for him with a second state visit? Join more than 200,000 of us and add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Trump team reveals lack of expertise – and patience – as it threatens to abandon Ukraine peace talks

Bro, this is gonna be so embarrassing for you, and you deserve it. 🫡 Maybe before you talk unmitigated shit to a woman who has more military experience in one of her ovaries than you have in your whole shrivel little man body, try Google.

Bannon the latest in the “Britain doesn’t manufacture anything” brigade. It’s a lazy trope you hear repeated in the media a lot. In fact the UK remains the 8th or 9th biggest manufacturer in the world. 10% of our GDP with some of the most advanced manufacturing anywhere.

Cancer changes you forever. Even if you’re lucky enough, like me, to have the type of cancer that can be cured. Your body is not the same. Life is not the same. It can feel very isolating when friends and family don’t understand this. #graphicmedicine #cansky

Reminder: The USA and Israel are committing genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza. Both Trump and Netanyahu are committing crimes against humanity, slaughtering civilians: men, women and children. #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide

Just so we’re clear, everybody calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist” or a “gang member” are lying, and they know they’re lying, and they repeat it for purposes of confusing people who don’t follow this stuff closely into accepting what was done to him.

I’ve always been perplexed by people who need to leave the planet in order to realise how precious and beautiful it is.

Yes Liz. Do it. This'll be the comedy event of the summer.

so I do absolutely, entirely agree with this but it also does feel like the logical endpoint of treating university as "a thing you have to do for three years otherwise you won't get a job" - if you're not making a case for why a uni education is useful, don't expect people to actually respect it

important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

I'm not saying journalists should never interview admitted propagandists. There are journalistic reasons to do so. But if we do, we must be prepared to -- in fact it is our duty to -- challenge vociferously all unsubstantiated claims. Otherwise, we ourselves become propagandists.

Don’t stop at Scunthorpe steel — nationalise water, mail, all of rail and energy. Bring them all into public ownership.

Just going to break up the timeline with some actual good news. Fear not, normal service will be resumed in 3…..2…..1….

Michael Gove used to ban teachers from their profession for life for drug use. He got caught taking cocaine and a few years later he's getting a peerage? It's as clear as day that drug laws are just there to punish the working class.

How many more innocennt lives must be lost?

Wow! The number of @bsky.app users just passed 34 MILLION! 👏 LETS DO THIS!

Fuck around. Get found out.

There’s a mass exodus from AirBnB to VRBO because of a co-founder & board member’s ties to the Heritage Foundation, Project 25, Tesla, and DOGE… Act accordingly. ✨

Another piece of the jigsaw.

"All the signs are that new UK government is going to make the most important decision of its term in office in the coming weeks. Unfortunately, it looks very much as if it will make the wrong one."

Can we permanently put to rest the myth that a businessman knows more how to manage the economy? Or do we have to wait for our economy’s collapse for some among us to grasp it?

Good morning #CatsOfBluesky I hope you have a fantastic #CatboxSunday

To be honest, a retaliatory 25% tariff on all imported 'US Candy' flooding the pop-up shop markets up and down the land will probably help cut down on money laundering in this country as well.
