Cutting benefits payments *specifically* for people deemed unable to work due to illness or disability is a genuinely shocking choice from Labour. Aside from the incredibly obvious moral horror of it, it shows how our economy is set up all wrong. #r4today

On this week's #TransatlanticWatchParty, @karamclean.bsky.social and I discuss the final episode of #PanAm: creators.spotify.com/pod/show/dan... #tvpodcast #TVSky

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

On this week's episode of #Transatlanticwatchparty, @karamclean.bsky.social and I discover that episode 13 of #PanAm aired in the wrong order: open.spotify.com/episode/1Z17...

Appeasing fascists has kept fascists out of power throughout history I'm sure, otherwise why would any politicians do it? Anyway, time to open this history book and check out the early 1930s.....OH SHIT OH FUCK OH NO

Elon Musk gets a lot of hate but, it’s nowhere near enough

Just two more episodes of #PanAm to watch with @danwatchesmovies.bsky.social and I will be gutted when it's over. How will I live without Colette Valois???? That woman has altered my brain chemistry ❤️❤️❤️

A new episode of Transatlantic Watch Party is now up! @karamclean.bsky.social and I continue to watch #PanAm, which is turning out to be an awesome series! creators.spotify.com/pod/show/dan...

Movie I've watched more that six times using only a gif.

Oh damn Prime actually published their failed chatgpt prompt in the description

"Two thumbs up!" - An octopus critic trashing a movie

Why is no one explaining that the narrative about plummeting NHS productivity is a false narrative? There are loads of articles being written about this - have any of the journalists actually examined the long-term trends?🚨 The Tories reduced the ‘input’ during the 2010s, by reducing hospital …

Happy Valentine's Day to all those who choose to be single, for those who celibate.

No. The Refugee Convention explicitly states that recipient states must facilitate the naturalisation of refugees and bans penalising refugees for their method of flight. But there's no court that enforces the Refugee Convention. "Never Again" was supposed to do that.

Sickening. No human is illegal. That's the whole point of the refugee status.

Me last night: Maybe this week’s column was a bit harsh on Labour. Perhaps they’ll start to see disability benefits in a more nuanced way and respect the people relying on them. Labour this morning:

This is Hitler-level stuff. Stop saying we can't say the F word. We can say any F words we like, and these two are fucking Fascists. Keep your grubby hands off Palestine, you insane orange bastard.

In light of leaks Labour could be planning the biggest disability benefit cuts in a decade, I ask: how is this different from life under the Tories?  My @theguardian.com col. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

If you want to do something about immigration, do something about global inequality.

Do we make policy to serve the national interest, or bigots?

Labour people - how do you see this working? What happens the minute I have to take time off sick with my new employer and they have to pay me sick pay? How does that help the economy? Or if they have to terminate my employment in less than 3 months because I can't meet any deadlines? /1

we don't need economic growth we need redistribution of wealth. are we just mean to go on and on like this? like Grey's Anatomy?

The only time any country was great was when people who did this would get their arms broken.

The Prince Charles Cinema is one of my absolute favourite things about London. I hope it is around for millennia to come.

Almost at 40k y'all, keep it pushing x

Buried in the ‘Trump just made coffee more expensive’ coverage is the fact he’s just threatened to deport any foreign national - Colombian or otherwise - living in the US who has voiced support for the Columbian government. Which seems, I dunno, more important.

I just- Like,- *exasperated sigh* ..Ya know?

Thou shalt accept that DEI didn't hold your career back -- you're just mid, bro.

The best political stance to have is "What if the people who suffer the most didn’t have to?” and if that makes you mad - I’m sorry your heart is made of asbestos.

This is precisely how Netanyahu and his regime put world Jewry in danger. Musk does Nazi salutes, endorses Nazi parties, shares Nazi memes, amplifies Nazi accounts, and spreads Nazi conspiracy theories. Netanyahu, speaking for “the one and only Jewish state,” launders his image. 1/5

Porktrait If you like this cartoon, I can draw one for you! Amazing! Or any of the others on my website. What a thrilling idea! www.worldofmoose.com/products/por...

The world is my oyster: slimy, disgusting, and I don’t want any part of it.

Don’t underestimate the impact you’re making when you choose to wear a mask. You’re protecting your health & the health of your community. You’re helping ease the burden on our healthcare system. You’re standing in solidarity with disabled people & telling the government that no one is expendable

using "ambushed" and "attacked" to describe a priest begging the most powerful man in the world to show kindness to the most vulnerable is the hallmark of a society that values cruelty and despises compassion
