5 council by-elections announced so far this week Reform UK have won 0/5. The turquoise trickle continues.

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

That's a risk we'll just have to take

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy's speech at the Munich Security Conference ends with prolonged applause👏

Have you still got the videos?

Conceding to all of Putin's demands isn't negotiating an end to hostilities. That's called surrender....isn't it? @georgemonbiot.bsky.social @jemmaforte.bsky.social @pippacrerar.bsky.social @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @bbcnews-uk-rss.bsky.social @benbrownbbc.bsky.social

Almost every wk on #SundaywithLauraKuenssburg, Kuenssburg, offers a clarification/correction on something she has said or a 'visual' she has used during the show in order to gain advantage over the interviewee. Today's @bbcnews-uk-rss.bsky.social @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Don't bother complaining

Little wonder @bbcnews-uk-rss.bsky.social @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social is where it is these days 🤷🏻‍♂️ @ofcom.bsky.social

Lies, damn lies, and immigration statistics: me in @prospectmagazine.co.uk on the endless torrent of falsehoods and half-truths pumped out by right-wong "journalists and " thinktanks" in the British media. www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/pol...

“They didn’t assault.” That Trump is allowed to deny the reality we saw with our eyes on Jan 6th, that is on tape!, & just ramble on with lie after lie, is a total indictment of our failed media industry. How reporters can just stand there as he says this stuff is beyond me. Have some self respect!

Rubberised weeping sore on the buttocks of civil society Nigel Farage is out doing his Ted and Ralph impersonation in his confected opportunist faux support for ‘Big Soil’ as he rocks up to the Farmers Protest acting like his snide Brexit claims didn’t directly impact their livelihoods Shyster

Follow the shit, and you will find #Farage

"Nearly 1,000 residents of Devon beauty spot sue water company over sewage." Is this going to be the first of many? I do hope so... inews.co.uk/news/residen...

Perhaps if Mr Musk, Mr Besos and co, 'paid their dues like the average Joe', there would be less pressure on #USAID... Just saying 🤷🏻‍♂️ @deborahmeaden.bsky.social

Make your own minds up 👇

This is insane. Musk, the world's richest man, owner of the most influential political messaging platform, and a de facto government member and top ally to the president, is accusing a journalist of being a criminal, because she reported on one of his racist DOGE staffers. This is fascist behavior.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Spot on

When are we going to make it illegal, for Ministers, MPs and members of the House of Lords to lie. We can't rely on self regulation so, why aren't we introducing a change in the law to clean it up.

Is this what people in the UK really want?..........Seriously?

Right wing - the problem with immigrants is they won't integrate. Badenoch - let's make it more difficult for immigrants to integrate by denying them citizenship.

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social More, cheap, Starmer bashing again tonight from Old Clavienne @vicderbyshire.bsky.social and her Old King oppo, @nicholaswatt.bsky.social. It is going to be a long, long, four and a half years, listening to rubbish like this. BBC completely compromised these days. Very sad

The BBC @bbcnews-world-rss.bsky.social @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social #politicslive is completely compromised. Very, very, sad, but it has been destroyed by Gibb, Turness and MacAndrew. Ably, supported by those in front of the camera. The likes of Kuenssburg, Coburn, Mason, Watt and co.

Keir Starmer: "In December 2020 I was working... on one of the most important issues for our country in recent years. What were they doing? Suitcases of booze into Downing Street, partying and fighting, vomiting up the walls, leaving the cleaners to remove red wine stains. That's the difference."
