Nothing warms my heart as much as seeing someone doing this. The world is *full* of people doubling down on shit they don’t even believe out of a sense of pride, and seeing someone graciously acknowledge being wrong, in full public view, is quite inspiring.
Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.
I love that row of terraced houses that I can see when I go to the football there. They just gladden my heart.
Andrew is a Prince. You can't strip him of that, he was born into it. If you believe in a royal family you have to accept all of them, even those accused of abuses.

Be my guest if that makes you want to debate whether we should have a royal family at all.
If Labour are wondering why their voters are turning to Green, look no further than this bullshit.
“We welcome those who come to this country, legally, and give more than they take. We believe the right to stay here must not be automatic, but that those who play their part should be able to earn that right."
In three or so years these people could be running the country's finances. 😱
Amazing story in The Times. Reform UK failed to pay VAT to HMRC on its sales (tickets, merchandise). About £400k in all.

Not tax avoidance. Not tax evasion. They just didn't realise when you sell stuff you have to charge VAT.
Bad mental health doesn't cause racism, and thats what he needs to address.

Like Gregg Wallace and his autism, here's someone doing a disservice to those that do suffer with poor mental health.
A lot that could be said about this but if you look on Twitter it’s noticeable that the replies and quote tweets are *overwhelmingly* telling him he shouldn’t have apologised and even attacking him for doing so. That’s the feedback loop certain users are plugged into now, and it has consequences.

Think we’ve crossed a pretty major threshold – and a very bad one – if a journalist working in the lobby for a major newspaper group can tweet like this without professional consequences.
A mainstream “journalist” calling for a British MP to be deported. Is it because I’m Muslim? Next time, just say it with your chest.

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.
Been to see Little Simz, lads, and she was INCREDIBLE!. So so good.

IMHO, although the party contains a lot of racists, the best line of attack on Reform is to point out that their funders were the same people who backed Liz Truss and her budget, because that had real consequences on everybody's life.
Was working and forgot. 🤦‍♂️
I'm always irritated when a book's ending reveals that the 200 pages you just read were a fiction within the fiction. One of my favourite writers has done it in the book i just read and, much as they are a terrific satirical writer, I just feel as though they've wasted my time.

“You described Reform and other parties across Europe today as among the 'right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s'. Why?”

“Because that’s what they are”

@vicderbyshire.bsky.social asks Lord Heseltine about remarks he made at Conservative Party Conference.

Good luck, Jason. I reckon recognising it is step one. Wish you all the best with what comes next.

I knew Patrick Cantlay was slow, but what is he doing out there? #rydercup
Trump is not the type to be associated with 0.5-3.5 performance like this. Wouldn't be surprised if we saw AF1 heading back the other way shortly. #rydercup
This is a clear case of Government interference and @fifaworldcup26.bsky.social should threaten to suspended the USA federation unless its withdrawn.

About as likely as my winning thr lottery tonight. I dont have a ticket.
