These knuckle-dragging grifting initiatives are so intricate they must take an age to plan. Unfurl a flag on a sand dune and stick up a GoFundMe page. 🙄

Farage says Reform UK are ready to fix Broken Britain.
After sliding down the polls since Nathan Gill sold Britain to Putin for £40k, Farage says he’s grown out of his racism, while leading the party that incited Farage riots but still in bed with Swastika Musk.

So after sliding down the polls since Nathan Gill sold Britain to Putin for £40k and Farage says he’s grown out of his racism while leading the party that incited Farage riots and in bed with Swastika Musk. Let’s do a round up of where Reform UK are.

If LinkedIn won’t listen to women, on algorithmic bias, get a man to say it for you.

“The truth is, most systems are designed to maintain the existing hierarchy. Meritocracy is the story organisations tell themselves so they don’t have to confront that. Or, perish the thought, change it.”
If meritocracy was real, organisations would rarely fail.

But they do. And not because people aren’t talented, but because talent is not always the primary criteria for who is recruited and who is promoted.

Organisations primarily fail when familiarity is valued over competence, when networks 1/

Cheering the two child limit ending isn’t patting Starmer’s Labour on the back or ignoring his record. It’s acknowledging 8 years of hard campaigning and ridding the country of a cruel, toxic policy. Half a million children won’t be hungry anymore. Celebrate today. Tomorrow, pick the next fight.

Nigel Farage campaigned to scrap the ECHR.
Now he’s under scrutiny and suddenly panicking about losing jury trials.
Turns out when your freedom’s at risk, fair trials and checks on state power start to matter.
You can’t have it both ways.

BBC out of their minds. Did they think gen pop wouldn’t find out they deleted the sentence describing Trump as the “most openly corrupt president in American History” from, a REITH LECTURE. Reith, whose principles centre on ethics, impartiality, & civic responsibility. The irony is lost on no one.

It’s so similar to when you say something in the board room and they are all quiet, they know the script. Next a man repeats verbatim what you just said and they all start clapping. A tale as old as time. | Carole Cadwalladr

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

So it turns out Carole Cadwalladr’s Ted Talk was correct. Which begs the question: Why is it so easy for these men in power to discredit brilliant women as maniacal? A tale as old as time. #russia
