I like how Tommy Robinson has come out of prison looking like he's been trying to rob Macaulay Culkin

Israel killed at least 10 Palestinians seeking aid in Gaza in two days, Gaza media office says - https://www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/live-blog-update/israel-killed-least-10-palestinians-seeking-aid-gaza-two-days-gaza-media

"The agent who was interviewing me [asked] if I would be willing to take the oath to protect and defend the Constitution of this country. And I said, yes, I am… He opens the back door, and the agents storm by." @mohsenofpalestine.bsky.social tells @premthakker.bsky.social about how ICE ambushed him.

That last sentence. Probably the best punchline Andrew Lawrence has ever had a hand in.

RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

Bank robbers say asking banks for permission would kill the heist industry.

HMRC admits not collecting £40bn tax last yr. Others say over £100bn. Big accounting/law firms, banks mastermind tax dodges. Rarely prosecuted. No big accounting firm prosecuted; get govt contracts. Fewer than FIVE criminal cases brought in 2023-2024, 16 in 2018-2019. Govts chase little people.

An absolutely debilitating strike, for those of us waiting for our daily dose of racist nonsense by the fruit machine in our local pubs.

London ground to a halt yesterday as literally dozens of patriots flooded the streets for the Great British National Strike. Typical of the msm not to cover this mass protest by 43 ageing racists.

This Daily Mail article is insane. Apparently Starmer has opened the door to criminalising mushy peas. open.substack.com/pub/mrhenrym...

Not been following due to childcare supply issues, but I suspect it's probably an egregious betrayal of Dan Hannan's vision of robot butlers doing all the work while we live like well-renumerated Pop Larkins in a UK that has reverted to a bucolic idyl a-la the Darling Buds of May.

Labour MP Rosena Allin-Khan: "Food is being used as a weapon of war.. we have a moral responsibility to act & if we don't act immediately this will be on us.. we can impose sanctions.. we can stop selling arms to the Israeli govt & we should be revisiting our free trade deal with Israel"

I’m late to @mrhenrymorris.bsky.social’s bit on Keir Starmer. While it’s funnier than the work of most people with a higher profile getting paid a lot more for satirical output, it makes me sad because it feels so true (in the sense of comically true). mrhenrymorris.substack.com/p/exclusive-...

'walk with the wise and become wise' 'choose friends carefully, for you become like them' 'go to Albania with GBNews and haemorrhage votes from your base while not picking up any new ones because their viewers utterly despise you'

"Then I’ll have a shower and get dressed. I like to make an effort. We live on an island full of strangers, so I need to stand out to make sure people recognise me."

We're going to need a bigger Morgan McSweeney

EXCLUSIVE - My interview with Keir Starmer "I only watch films which grossed north of £800m at the box office, which does tend to limit the breadth of my consumption" Now live on my Substack... mrhenrymorris.substack.com/p/exclusive-...

'I get it', 'take back control', 'ramping up', 'smash the gangs' Who wrote this gibberish, Boris Johnson?

Enraging to have grown up around working class black people who came to the UK and broke themselves for it only to be told that their host nation still has “legitimate concerns” about them being there.

Appalling speech by Starmer. Dishonest, inhumane and most of all, cowardly.

Rachel Reeves covering herself in glory here too. Laughing that hard at a joke that poor is a real tell.

Thanks Henry, but I'd rather impale my own eyeballs

The Parable of the Old Man And The Young A short poem about Starmer's 'island full of strangers' open.substack.com/pub/mrhenrym...

If you wouldn't accept "we are at risk of becoming an island of strangers" from Kemi Badenoch or Nigel Farage you probably shouldn't accept it from Keir Starmer. Don't pretzel yourself trying to explain why it's ok from the guy in the red tie.

An outstanding, eviscerating, righteously angry, excoriating, human, powerful, brilliant, death-knell sledgehammer to Starmerism. Every line ought to be studied as part of the GCSE English Lit. syllabus.

🌍 UK scientists stage historic climate protest at parliament Chris Packham joins over 150 British experts rallying in London to demand urgent, science-based climate policy By Brian McHugh @brianmchugh.bsky.social @sciencetopolitics.bsky.social

We are now able to confirm that recent reports of a cluster of Farage sightings near Clacton Pier this afternoon, were in fact a raw sewage discharge by Anglian Water.

When walking a tightrope, make sure the people at either end hate you.

Has he reopened the Monday Club?

Can't believe this 'island of strangers' rhetoric is coming from the same man that welcomed that ghoul Natalie Elphicke into his party a year ago.

Grown up politics latest.

Highest pressure per square inch ever recorded: 3. Great White Shark's bite 2. Pneumatic drill 1. Old people entering their pin

After asset stripping England water companies warn of rationing. 35 reservoirs sold for £26m profit. Southern Water plan to decommission 43 of 93 reservoirs, build one. 1 trillion litres lost through leaky pipes. Companies have 1,135 criminal convictions. End the privatisation scam.

Piers Morgan is a POS but man is this interview wild - based on the way her tone changes I don't think she realized the implications of what she said until after she said it. If you look closely you can see her realize she is absolutely cooked in real time.

Does the Pope shit in the woods?

“Mohsen’s freeing reminds us of a different vision for America. People of all kinds of backgrounds standing up for someone who the people in power want you to see as an outsider.” Watch @premthakker.bsky.social discuss Mohsen Mahdawi's release from ICE detention and what it means for America.

BREAKING: A freedom flotilla that was on its way to bring aid to Gaza was just reportedly attacked by drones in international waters and is on fire, with a breach in the hull. Ship is reportedly near Malta.

Why is anyone still listening to Tony Blair?

AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.

New — Rumeysa Ozturk was supposed to be transferred to Vermont this Thursday. Instead, the Second Circuit has stalled it until a panel of judges hears the Trump admin’s arguments to keep her in Louisiana. Rumeysa has not been accused of a crime. She co-wrote a campus op-ed.

Handing over every school report I ever had.
