Before Brexit, immigration was the number 1 political issue, pushed relentlessly by the media. It then dropped away for some years after Brexit but since Labour came to power has yet again rocketed up the media's agenda list. As always, just a complete distraction from the real issues.

Discovered that Sustrans, the cycle network charity, changed its name to the Walk Wheel Cycle Trust in September. I "sus"pect the name change was due to the old name not being thought of as referring to "sustainable transport" anymore.

Apparently the US government is going to impose a $100 per person fee (in addition to normal park entry fees) for non-Americans for the most visited National Parks. Are they trying to completely kill tourism?

I'm glad the 2 child cap is finally getting abolished. It was a cruel piece of legislation when introduced in 2017. The problem is the abolition isn't going to suddenly fix the massive structural issues inherent to the existing welfare system.

The fact that the leader of the Green Party is called out at all shows Labour are scared.
Watch as Rachel Reeves brands Greens leader Zack Polanski a 'keen hypnotherapist'

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Welcome to the UK, where minors are blocked from accessing porn but it's perfectly legal for a grown man to shout about sissy hypno porn in a minors face.

Rich people have absolutely no idea how expensive phones are and that for most people, switching device is a major purchase.

Rockstar on exceptionally shaky ground with this and I'd hope the Employment Tribunal would look on what happened with deep scepticism.
EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".

PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Obviously this would result in a Reform/Tory coalition but if the Reform lead keeps getting eroded away, soon it might not be possible.

It’s truly remarkable how unlistenably bad the 2025 AI remix of Real Love is, especially given how tasteful a job they did with Free as a Bird just a few minutes ago. Unanimously despised in the comments section. Sounds like an intern emailed the wrong file to the publishers.

The 2025 remix of Real Love is sadly a miss. John Lennon sounds like a robot. Also why on Earth have George Harrison's guitar parts been stripped out?! www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9hg...

It's hilarious that Trump always 100% agrees with the last person he happened to speak to. The problem is that 99.9% of the time, the last person he spoke to is either a professional bullshitter or some deranged moron whose entire concept of politics was derived from right wing facebook hoaxes

Mamdani can just read Trump like a book; it's all about the spectacle for him. I suspect this will be a short-lived "alliance"; it'll change as soon as Trump speaks to one of his other advisors.
I think this clip is the key to understanding why Trump acted the way he did with Mamdani. His world revolves around TV ratings.
