A writer not a fighter… except in good causes. Sadly, despite noble resistance, the Observer (a very good cause) has now been thrown to the dogs of the marketplace by the Guardian, who proved to be, “an unreliable ally”.

It’s not too late to stop Trump and the tech broligarchy from controlling our lives, but we must act now says @carolecadwalla.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/global/2025/...

Will Trump invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 to enforce his rule, via a militia if need be, ending democracy in the USA in the process? youtu.be/p1SjVCYUIwk?...

@mrjamesob.bsky.social the debate might become clearer if you, “take it out of the toilet”. Surely there are more fundamental issues. Not to diminish anyone’s concerns, I’d suggest “toilet” points of antagonism are minimal. Might be wrong…

Long - but very important, if you value democracy. As the old song says, you don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone.

This right here 🔥 “If there was market manipulation, it is a crime. Someone needs to go to jail… I want the documents. I want the Signal chats too, because I don’t trust them — that they weren’t sharing all this information across their Signal chats.” – @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social

Evil, meet insanity.

The Big Lie Trump keeps plugging: they’re all coming to, “kiss my ass”. No they’re not. Only five countries have asked for tariffs to be lowered. FIVE. The rest are in his fevered imagination. The clown is folding the tent. America is leaving town. Sayonara, baby!

Sometimes I feel like the NYT has been reading my tweets.. How Brexit, a Startling Act of Economic Self-Harm, Foreshadowed Trump’s Tariffs www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/w...

Gangsters at work.

I wouldn’t disagree with any of that. It’s the language and the gubbins I don’t get

Well, waddya know? More bottom-feeding then for Trump’s friends. Disgusting manipulation of the markets. Stocks fall as Trump speaks about ‘transition difficulty’ from tariffs pause – latest updates - The Times and The Sunday Times

Blindingly obvious, surely. These guys are gangsters. This is their vigorish, their cream off the top.

Jordan Spieth: ‘I feel more comfortable at the Open and the Masters’

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Only one word you need: gangster. He grew up with gangsters, his father was a gangster. Qhe made his money with gangsters, he talks and acts like a gangster. He is, in short, an effing gangster.

The Trump meme coin is “probably the most massive corruption scandal in the history of the country,” Senator Chris Murphy says—and the lack of an uproar to it signalled “that we weren’t going to take the corruption seriously.” www.newyorker.com/podcast/the-...

Listening to the self-consciously stentorian David Dimbleby, swooning over the Mad Monk, Keith Joseph, architect of Thatcher’s cruel and divisive reign, was a timely reminder that the BBC will forever be embedded in the heart of the Conservative Party.

Another day in Stupid Town…

Nobody loves our cars more than Americans. It’s 18 per cent of UK exports to the US. So now, guys, you get to pay 25 per cent more for them. Brilliant!

The messages appear to undermine the Trump administration’s claim that war plans were not included in the Signal chat.
