Interesting to see that ARC’s advisory board, along with Peterson himself, Douglas Murray 🤢, and lots of military types, also includes Labour’s aspiring sage-in-chief, Lord Maurice Glasman.

The "Heartland Institute", a lobbying organization infamous for denying the overwhelming scientific consensus on manmade climate change, is getting a foothold in Europe - aided by Austrian politicians.

The BBC’s domestic political coverage is often rubbish, but this from Truss (unsurprisingly) is utter tripe. The BBC is revered internationally and is a vital news service for tens of millions of people. It needs more money, not less

Emma Trimble, "1 in 12 people in London are illegal immigrants" Professor Jonathan Portes, "Emma has taken that figure from a story in The Telegraph.. That story was a lie.. The Telegraph has corrected it, The Times has corrected it.. The Sun has corrected it.. And The Daily Mail has corrected it"

The Telegraph’s front page should come with a health warning at this point. Story today suggesting Labour was funded by the EU because the Fabian Society received £30k from a European foundation two years ago. Desperate stuff.

One of the sad features of all the normal people seeking asylum here is that we don’t get to see the maniac-right getting dunked on anymore. Some of you were so good at dunking on those weirdos

Nigel Farage, who loves fossil fuels and hates net zero, is building a new house in a high climate risk area. (also: not in Clacton, obviously)

submitted 39 days ago • 23 comments

A significant development, this. Tory net zero lead Claire Coutinho has basically endorsed Net Zero Watch, a group that denies climate science and campaigns to scrap green policies. The party is radicalising on every front 👇🏻

If social media firms wanted “free speech” they wouldn’t have algorithms at all (or they’d let users customise their algorithms). I want to follow the people I know and like - I don’t want to see tweets from deranged billionaires and neo-Nazi bots that are artificially planted on my feed

Prof Alexis Jay, chair of public inquiry into child sexual abuse, says further national inquiry into grooming gangs isn’t needed & would delay action. “The time has passed for more inquiries, we’ve had enough… We’ve set out action required & people should just get on with it, nationally & locally”
