It simply is no longer viable for us to hold the 2026 World Humanist Congress in Washington DC as planned, with the US in the state it is. Delighted to announce that we will instead be hosted by the wonderful people of Ottawa, Canada!

Two disabled leaders have quit the “stakeholder network” set up to ensure that the voices of disabled people are at the heart of the government’s work, after months – and even years – of “inertia” and a failure to respond to their input. www.disabilitynewsservice.com/two-members-...

The Billionaire Media is pushing for Thames Water to be 'temporarily renationalised' at a cost to you of £21bn so billionaires don't lose a penny. I have a counter offer, make them go bankrupt, renationalise permanently for free.

Not enough attention on Blue Labour's insidious relationship with Thiel and Karp's CIA spytech company Palantir who have 24 contracts with UK public institutions, including the NHS, the Police Force, the Ministry of Defence, the Cabinet Office, and the DLUHC. No one voted for this.

The Government is planning to roll out mandatory digital ID. It’s invasive and could mean millions of people unable to go about their daily lives. Right now it's just an idea - we need to stop it becoming a reality. Join me and sign the petition now! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/re...

🚨 “Not For EU” Label. Check your asparagus. 🇲🇽 Mexican asparagus in @sainsburys may be grown with pesticides banned in the EU, including carbofuran and paraquat. 🥵 No EU label = No EU safety standards. 🇬🇧 Post-Brexit, UK rules are weaker. 🧪 Lower testing. Less traceability. More risk.

Nick Ferrari just asked: "What is it, in the makeup of the vast majority of Pakistani men [that makes them rapists]?" That's EXACTLY what people like him are hoping the public inquiry concludes - that Pakistani men have a predilection for such crimes. He's a proper old school racist.

So the millionaire exodus was a complete work of fiction.... built on dodgy data from a company flogging golden passports to billionaires. Henley & Partners spun a PR stunt and the media ran with it. 10,000 headlines later, the truth emerges: less than 0.3% of UK millionaires left. buff.ly/W0MDULn

Knew several of them were accepting donations from Israeli interests but that is utterly appalling. The UK government has blood on its hands and is guilty of aiding and abetting genocide. Hamas are no angels but the ordinary people are the ones that are suffering - at the hands of the UK government.

I lived in NYC and it's suburbs for 50 years. I've been in Rockefeller Center during rush hour at Christmas time. I was at the free Simon and Garfunkle concert in Central Park. I was at the Yankees ticker tape parade. In over 50 years Ive never seen crowds like this.

BBC Newswatch desperately trying to justify their excessive exposure of ReformUK today, but every argument only supports the complaints. Of course, their support will grow if the other parties don't even get the airtime to promote their own policies! Absolutely outrageous bias from the BBC. 😡

“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.” @cbsaustin @velez_tx

I’m hearing rumors that thousands of people are calling the ICE tip line to report little green men and other aliens from outer space. That’s not why ICE set up this number, so you should absolutely NOT call that tip line to report those types of aliens. 👽 I repeat—do NOT call the below number! ☎️
