The Spectator (owned by GBNews owner Paul Marshall - estimated wealth of £800 million) doesn’t like taxing wealth fairly.

I wonder how they got to this editorial decision?

Let’s tax wealth fairly, fund front line services & make hope normal again.

Polanski is talking nonsense about wealth taxes.

Another reminder that The Lasting Harm is a must read - with Prince Andrew’s Epstein relationship back in the press, Mandelson’s recent sacking and the ramifications in Washington - Lucia’s book is a vital read

The Cosmic Shambles Network @cosmicshambles.com · 5d

For @luciaoc.bsky.social attending every single day of the Ghislaine Maxwell trial was no easy feat. Video of our Book Shambles panel discussing The Lasting Harm with Lucia, @robinince.bsky.social & @bechillcomedian.bsky.social is up for Patreon subscribers now at patreon.com/cosmicshambles

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

Juno is a lovely and helpful shop

Robin Ince @robinince.bsky.social · 1d

This makes me happy - I love performing and I love talking to those who come and I am happy people feel the space is inviting not inhibiting - it took me many years to fit my skin comfortably

Anthony Dixon @ranthonydixonius.bsky.social · 1d

I've got fairly severe social anxiety and it was a bit of a struggle to go to see you. You set me at ease within a few minutes with your openess and relaxed humour though. It was quite a big moment for me and I'm very glad that I went.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.
