Important this outrage farming is exposed - it is nothing new but at least the press can be held to account to some extent.
Hate-filled fake videos about London are everywhere. We've obtained a recording of a TikToker confessing to secretly filming Londoners in their homes for clicks.
He says it's not political. He just wants to make money from far-right anger.
Read what he says: www.londoncentric.media/p/london-tik...

💥 GOOD.
Because that £240 million contract gifted to Palantir, with no competition…
…after Starmer had an off-the-books meeting with Mandelson and Palantir…
…while Mandelson was officially LOBBYING FOR Palantir and so personally financially benefiting from such links and contracts…
Stinks.

The appointment of Mandelson didn't pass the sniff test on any level.
Nor does the awarding of huge contracts to Palantir given security and ideological risks. Especially given what is happening with US defense and ICE (see Palantir and Minneapolis).
The sniff test is helpful. That's the memo.

ICE agent punches man in face who has his hands up. And there's blood on his forehead from when he hit the ground
Lady shouts out "What the f*ck you hit him like that? What the f*ck you smack him like that"
Why is this level of violence being normalised? Please do better America 🙏

Didn’t get into it in the piece but there’s this fundamentally dishonest idea that spending loads on defence - warehouses full of weapons and bored young men - is somehow good for the economy, actually

“Danish citizens are organising a huge boycott that includes cancelling planned holidays in the US, cancelling subscriptions to on-demand services based in the US & more generally, recommending the use of EU services instead of those provided by American platforms.”
So, same as Canadians.

There is a lever that isn't named yet that the EU has to pull if they want to hurt the US - ASML. Their photolithography tech is a requirement for any advanced chip manufacturing, and they're complex enough ASML is on site to make sure they work. Ban export and service and US chip making dies.

Super interesting article peeking behind the scenes of the gambling industry. Obviously most people lose their money. Those who outsmart the bookies find themselves restricted to placing small stakes. Which in turn leads to some pretending to be poor bettors
