Who better to complain about wasting money than the MP who claimed £30,000 from taxpayers for renting a flat while her husband owned one just a few minutes away?

Matt Goodwin has more chips on his shoulder than a carpenter caught in a frites spillage. The very essence of dull, unoriginal, utterly inconsequential little man. You can only pity the boneheads who hero worship such an absolute nonentity. #bbcqt

What im clumsily saying is when you're from a minority group you know. You develop an intuition for how others see you that runs the gamut from "trying too hard" to "hostile" You know from life experience that most people are not racist but that many who are dont even think they are.

Poor take by Curtice.

This is a disaster for Farage. Polls had RefUK closely winning. Losing by 11% signposts Plaid to all of Wales as THE tactical choice for Senedd Elex and drains RefUK momentum.

"Something is happening out there", alright. People are uniting to tell Farage to feck right off.

‘The threat couldn’t be more urgent and imminent. Yet here we are, still putting our head in the sand.’

@carolecadwalla.bsky.social says it’s ‘peculiar’ that the case of Farage ally Nathan Gill admitting to making pro-Russia speeches for cash isn’t being followed more closely.

Sen. Jeff Merkley has been speaking on the Senate floor since 6:20pm last night — protesting Trump and warning that "tyranny has arrived."

"Trump is shredding our Constitution. Is it okay for masked federal agents to arrest people off the street because of their skin color … Not in a free America."

Robin Cook quote of day: “What makes a society strong is its sense of social cohesion, the belief of all its members in their basic equality. Commercialising the provision of public services through privatisation or marketising them through health charges or education fees erodes this public realm.”

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.

Yet another Reform MP has been accused of being in breach of Parliamentary rules.

deputy leader Richard Tice failed to register lavish hospitality he received from Lubov Chernukhin –

Dr Assal Rad—

"This story is getting barely any media coverage, which is why Israel returned the bodies with signs of torture.

"Didn’t even try to cover it up because they knew they didn’t have to."

Win for nature-friendly farming!

UK Government’s one-year extension of some nature-friendly farming agreements in England gives breathing space for those making space for wildlife on farms.

But it’s only a stop-gap, we need a long-term plan for the future 🧵 👇
