It’s weird that MPs are being paid by a member of a foreign government & it goes by without comment

Nice work in Tottenham

I think this, from the Joy of Tech comic a few days ago (www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/jo...) just about sums up where the USA has got itself now:-

Thames Water’s profit-hungry owners have let the water network rot while they’ve racked up alarming debts. And who do they want to pick up the tab? Customers. Write to Steve Reed and demand he stops the bailout and puts Thames Water into special measures: goodlaw.social/r3wk

Too bad Uvalde Elementary didn’t sell Teslas.

I get the impression that Labour’s current bout of performative fiscal cruelty is an attempt to roll the pitch for breaking its manifesto pledge to not raise taxes. It’s killing Labour babies to communicate “raising your tax is a last resort” But why is it not raising tax on the mega rich as well?

Tinto Talks has recently turned 1 year old, and we recently got told that all of the core mechanics of the game have been covered, so I went through and picked out the top 10 (in no specific order) changes that we've read about over the past year! youtu.be/TyVbDSMVoeM

Currently playing EU4 as a Custom Nation using the Extended Time Mod because, unless I'm *completely* wrong, neither will be possible in the upcoming "Project Caesar" (EU5). #EU4 #Paradox

It’s fraud, not business. Steve Reed has launched the biggest commission into the failed water industry since privatisation. But he’s banned it from even considering nationalisation as an option. “It’s a dereliction of duty not to explore all viable solutions.” tribunemag.co.uk/2025/03/end-...

Still underrated how insane musk is, like all day and night- from the WH- he posts stuff like "you're a traitor" at mark kelly or "be quiet small man" at the polish foreign minister or "you are committing a crime" at anyone he doesn't like and the media calls it "sparring." No, the dude is nuts!

The President of the United States is vowing to disappear students from college campuses who say things the government doesn't like. There are not enough alarms for this.

every single person who is currently supporting what’s happened to Mahmoud Khalil is a fascist sympathizer, a coward, or both this is “they came for” and it’s happening right now

As predicted!

Defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe. If Elon doesn't understand that, maybe he should leave it to those of us who do.

Elon Musk says today's X outage was caused by a "massive cyberattack" and the company is "tracing" the perpetrator. Don't be surprised if he blames, obviously without evidence, 'Zelensky government-associated hackers' as a politically convenient scapegoat for his own mismanagement.

Senator Kelly responds to Elon Musk

Amplify this.

Musk’s hyperpartisan support of far right parties worldwide, childish public spats with elected mainstream governments, and participation in an administration that cut off intel to Ukraine suggests strongly that Starlink is a security risk

G8 -> G7 -> G6

I've never seen a nation torch its reputation the way Musk and Trump are torching that of the US. Every day they find a way to make a new segment of the world population detest them. Makes Brexit look like a PR triumph.

Just one more Starmer speech about the unbreakable bond between us and the US should do it.....

Good.

Donald Trump targeted AP and legacy media did nothing. Donald Trump has now targeted two large law firms and Big Law is silent. You all read Martin Niemöller's poem “First They Came.” So, I ask you -- What are you doing?

Tusk is really rising to the occasion www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/w...

US technology, provided by private companies, just ceased to be reliable

So, ULEZ expansion has worked! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Why aren't all the real auditors in the world standing up to the abuse of the term 'audit' to describe what ELON and DOGE is doing? Auditors don't CHANGE Auditors don't FIRE Auditors write reports Audits have processes, procedures and review This is NOT NORMNAL It's destruction

As a result of a targeted drone strike in #Sumy, the Nova Poshta terminal with parcels was burned, and an employee was killed. The russians are fully aware of where they are hitting – a post office branch is civilian infrastructure, not a military target. Do the russians want peace? 👹🤬

yep

What the hell fellow Brits?!

The #measles outbreak in West Texas is still ongoing & cases are mainly in unvaccinated children. Vaccination against measles is the best way to protect yourself & those around you. Read the full post here: thosenerdygirls.substack.com/p/what-is-ha...

worst of luck to the DOJ flacks who have to get back up in front of a judge soon and explain why the president just told everyone Elon was in charge of DOGE instead of the random career person they “put in charge” while she was on vacation
