This is what GB News is inciting its viewers to do. And this is why Ofcom must not be allowed to ignore it mainstreaming its hate into Britain's bloodstream. metro.co.uk/2025/02/11/m...

Apple adds new features by default such as all the changes Apple Intelligence brings, Mail categories, Mail Contact Photos, automatic tiling of windows in the Finder and my clients pay me to turn them all off 🤷🏻‍♂️

For more than a decade, one anonymous wildlife dealer has been advertising rare and endangered animals to thousands of followers. Read here how @bellingcat.com, with a contribution of yours truly, went on the Hunt for Malaysia's Elusive Wildlife Trafficker. www.bellingcat.com/news/2025/02...

It’s about time that The Bristol Channel was renamed ‘The Cardiff Channel’ or whatever that is in Welsh. Cardiff is a capital city after all. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I would like to propose a new word: "STEM-washing". I get a fair few offers to be paid by large morally-questionable companies who are making peanut-sized contributions to science education schemes & want brand ambassadors so they can look good by association. Who says yes to this? Not me!

I think this is one of my favourite colourful climate chart type things, because it depicts two things at once: - Things are going to get worse, no matter what - The degree to which they get worse depends on decisions made today theconversation.com/my-new-dark-... by @edhawkins.org

If you substitute UK for Taiwan, and GBNews and the Reform Party for the Taiwanese equivalents, you will understand exactly what the playbook here is. #uk @labouruk.bsky.social @labourlewis.bsky.social @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social #politics s1.ai/LC24-MW

These tactics are incredibly dangerous. Jess Phillips already has to have enhanced police protection & been told not to travel alone after Elon Musk called her a "rape genocide apologist" on X. The Tories are stoking the flames of hatred. This is a bonfire that can quickly spread out of control.

Fact checkers, alongside content moderators, sometimes describe themselves as the internet’s emergency services. In digital spaces, where harmful content and misinformation can spread like wildfire, their job is to try to minimise its impact...

River Ring… 💍 A bespoke “River Ring” that I finished just before Christmas. 💎 It’s recycled and remodelled silver and 9ct yellow gold, based on a section of the river Wye, with the sapphire set in a special place.

Just in from mammoth interview session to two bits of news. One that a DV perp got locked up because of something I did and that a vulnerable constituent had a a massive wrongful debt written off after our intervention. This is why I came to politics, this is why I'll just keep cracking on.

Takeaway from crazy news day: need to relearn lessons of Trump 2016 Ignore vast swathes of what passes for ‘news’ Trump wanging on about Greenland and Panama is noise. Ditto Musk’s latest disorientation post on X. Zuckerberg gutting content moderation and kissing the ring is signal though.

“They feel like they are being used like a political football.” Safeguarding minister Jess Phillips says some grooming gang victims in Telford feel like they are being used by “people who have never shown any concern about them.” #Newsnight
