Not being funny but this stuff - along with what Starmer came out with, going beyond what the Supreme Court judgement said - has been an LGBT equivalent of the LBC Gaza interview for Labour. There is a lot of anger over this. It's also not really clear what upside there is for them saying any of it.

The right-wing press has spread a load of baseless falsehoods about heat pumps. That’s the main reason why the technology is politically ‘controversial’. By banning Evan Davis from doing a podcast about heat pumps, the BBC is dancing to the tune of people pushing out blatant misinformation

One reason conservatives beat centrists is that they look at polling and think "we have work to do" instead of "this is an immutable fact of reality that we are powerless to tackle." On any number of issues they have moved the needle through sheer bloody-mindedness and media saturation.

NEW - In some rare good news, British Steel ends redundancy consultation, keeping thousands of jobs at least for now. Both blast furnaces are able to operate.

Go ahead and tell me what the fucking point of you is then. Is there going to be a single thing you're proud of at the end of all this that couldn't have been delivered by a Conservative government?

The first 750 free breakfast clubs are running in schools today. They mean no child needs to start the school day hungry, while offering a supportive start to the day and chances to socialise with other children before learning begins. Parents can also benefit from them... 1/2

BBC muzzling one of its best presenters from making an excellent, wholly factual programme because heat pumps are “controversial”. An organisation badly in need of new leadership.

Well, that’s definitely one take. Another would be: “Trump triggers massive and immediate swing away from Trump-aligned, populist headbangers.”

Farage is talking bollocks again. But now @ed-miliband.bsky.social is calling him out. There is no politician more geekishly knowledgeable about our energy system than Ed. We need geeks like him to keep the lights on, not Trumpist blowhards like Farage www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I suspect there is quite a lot of milage in a 'Reform, they're the guys who keep posting the shit racist memes on your local Facebook' campaign

Excellent piece by @siennarodgers.bsky.social on Labour's not-quite-payroll vote (mission champions, trade envoys, etc. etc.)

These people, frankly, are too stupid to breathe and need to shut the fuck up.

The preachy, racist, ignorance of some American progressives on here highlights, once more, that the UK is a European country. Their culture wars just don’t work here. The basic assumptions underpinning them do not apply. It’s the same on the right, of course.

The UK punches above its weight, competing on the world stage in art, culture, technology and new ways to incrementally hurt the wellbeing of minority folks just trying to live their damn lives.

UK median wage, £29,628. Net pay, £24,852; barely enough to survive. Top 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined. Bottom 50% less than 5%. Can't revive economy without boosting purchasing power of the bottom 50%. Workers need higher share of GDP. Progressive taxation.
