Ultimately it matters not if your constitution is written or unwritten or codified or uncodified… …once those in power do not recognise political or legal rules higher than their own personal or partisan advantage it is constitutional ‘game over’. Constitutions need constitutionalism, most of all.

This is a fascinating little story of our times. 1 hyper-partisans & contrarian nitwits make obviously false claims. 2 fact-checkers, journalists etc easily debunk the lies. 3 AI launders the misinformation, vomiting it on to the internet as “fact”. 4 Gobshites double down on their BS, citing AI.

I don't understand the political timidity when it comes to regulating social media. These are companies that have decimated the free press, fuelled race riots on our streets, undermined the mental health of our children, paid little tax and are now undermining liberal democracy itself.

This has had me giggling all afternoon. It was posted by @lisagillmore.bsky.social on X, but unfortunately she is not very active here, and I just have to share it. "Planning Christmas dinner like"

Room full of satire writers will struggle to find a funnier line that the BBC Newsreader just now saying “The Chinese approached Prince Andrew in the hope of finding intelligence’”

@safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team Bluesky, you seem determined to become the little brother of X. Why? Why are you destroying the goodwill here by allowing this evil bastard Singal to spread hate here?

Given all the conversation about puberty blockers this week, wouldn’t it be helpful to hear from… a trans person?! Huge thanks to Ask Awareness founder Stephanie Lynnette and her mother for sharing their stories of the five-year slog to get blockers (and that was in 2014) inews.co.uk/news/fought-...
