the final words of my Covid book, Just drink the Bleach --> "the world's a mirror; up to a point you get back what you put out; it was the best advice for surviving the pandemic. Be nice to people." It still seems to work.

I'm genuinely impressed by him every time I see him in the media. I like him to start with, but he always seems to exceed expectations.

The Headline smear, what Polanski actually said.

Mr Polanski, 42, said he too would 'consider shoplifting' if he also had no other option to earn money or obtain food.

Zack Polanski said people who steal because they do not have much money should be shown compassion

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?

Looks like a potential move towards a negative income tax, which was also going to be the way Canada guarantees basic income.

I still maintain our best defense against fascism is a healthy educated population. Truly fix Universal Health care and make education free at all levels. UBI is the thing to build on.

Military members lined up at a food bank because Trump's shutdown means that people aren't getting paid.

This video from @scrippsnews.bsky.social is getting wide circulation on Instagram, which is where I downloaded it from Don Lemon's account.

Did Farage ever sue the Mail on Sunday?

This threat was issued in June 2025, but I can find no further reference to events after that.

Between 2019 and 2024 in real terms EU exports grew by 11%.

UK exports also grew. By 0.89%.

That's the total. Goods exports were lower in real terms in 2024 than in 2014.

@antonspisak.bsky.social of the @centreeuropeanref.bsky.social, a think-tank, observes that, after Brexit took effect at the end of 2020, Britain’s goods exports have grown less than those of any other economy in the G7 club of rich countries.

IMO: Trump is going to lose on this one, and look like the ass he truly is. Very unlike Trump, President Xi is very smart, and understands what cards he has & doesn't have, and on this one he has the cards.

1) A complete shut down of US-China trade would be VERY painful for everyone, but China ...

Americans are fed up with the political establishment and an economy rigged against the working class.

Zohran Mamdani understands this well. Democratic leadership should be supporting him.

Those returning say they are driven by desperation rather than confidence that it is safe.
