I don’t have enough maths to be able to follow Wiles’ proof of Fermat’s last theorem. But I do have enough Latin to know that “this margin” is a mistranslation - a schoolboy error.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

I’m just going to say it…

It’s pretty damn validating to hear Barack Obama say the same things we’ve been shouting for months, and longer.

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.

And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

Absolute perfection. #Reform

Our Granddad is 100 and fought in D-day
and he thinks Farage is the right man to
sort Britain out. He says he reminds him
of one of the commanders he fought
alongside with distinction. In the next
few weeks he's going to auction off his
medals and donate all the money to
Reform. Anyone know how much an Iron Cross is worth?

"The new billboards are designed to inform troops of legal resources … 'The [Southern Command] strikes … represent the most blatantly illegal act that this administration has had the military carry out.'"

Billboards outside US Southern Command urge troops not to 'break the law’ in Caribbean strikes

“Don’t let them make you break the law,” reads a billboard along the road to U.S. Southern Command, one of several set up by veterans.

Bart Sibrel. He was aggressively harassing Aldrin despite repeated requests to stop. The punch came when he called Aldrin a liar, a coward and a thief; it was not simply for asserting the landing was faked. You can easily find the video if you search for it.

Minority representation on TV causes outrage

There has been widespread support for prominent Reform MP
Sarah Pochin after she complained about the over-representation of minorities on television.
Said one angry viewer, "She's right. Every time you turn on the telly there's another Reform MP being interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg."
She added, "I respect their way of life and their strange customs, but Reform MPs comprise only 0.7 percent of the House of Commons. Yet Nigel Farage is on Question Time more than Fiona Bruce."
"I'm not prejudiced. Some of my best friends are swivel-eyed loons, but enough is enough.
There are too many people with angry red faces on television.”

"go to TikTok. See for yourself."

Pop Base tweets: "Kim Kardashian said on ‘The Kardashians’ that she believes the moon landing was fake:

“They’re gonna say I’m crazy no matter what, but like, go to TikTok. See for yourself. […] There’s no gravity on the moon. Why is the flag blowing? The shoes that they have in the museum that they wore on the moon is a different print in the photos. Why are there no stars?”"

This is the Royal equivalent of the amputation of a gangrenous limb to stop the rest of The Firm getting infected.

An act of self-preservation.

If it was integrity, then they'd have booted Andrew out years ago.

They didn't.

Kristi Noem: "No American citizens have been arrested or detained. We focus on those who are here illegally. And anything you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting."
