If you receive legal threats from Nigel Farage for your reporting of Reform, please get in touch.

We have employed a defamation lawyer specifically for this purpose and would love to help (and we do so on non-commercial terms). www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The UK is losing up to £250m a day in lost tax revenue due to the economic impact of Brexit, House of Commons Library analysis for the Lib Dems suggests.

Brexit has blown a "black hole of [up to] £90 billion a year in the public finances" the party says. Even under lower estimates the hit is ~£65bn

It’s hilarious and revelatory that a bunch of giant MAGA/America First X accounts are actually based in Eastern Europe and Nigeria.

There are some really terrific cameos in the latest Alan Partridge on iplayer. Particularly great are Anna Crilly and Rufus Jones but just great casting all round

Even for me (who's been saying that pol editors, journalists could just as likely be corrupted by Putin)

...the TOTAL absence of Nathan Gill's Sentencing on The Sun, Mail, Express, Star, Telegraph AND Times is astonishing.

UNCOUTH
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance
The Danish Social Democrats are currently on course for their worst election result since at least the Second World War, despite their brand of far-right accommodationism being touted as a blueprint for other centre-left parties.

I’ve written a piece on the curious lack of media and political interest in the issues faced by our national @britishlibrary.bsky.social. This is strange given we live in a world where ideas, knowledge and research are a long-term source of innovation and insight

The British library is in crisis: why does nobody care?
The widespread indifference to the British Library's crippling cyberattack demonstrates a perilous failure to value the knowledge infrastructure vital for national prosperity

It’s not great how much the modern Republican Party are asking you to imagine the sexual differences between children
With all the fine tuning of the distinction between sex with 14 year olds and 8 year olds I'm starting to think that Ephebophilia might be part of the 2028 GOP platform if Trump let's them have a platform again.

Vance - Blackburn 2028, Ephebophilia, NOT THAT BAD

Does anyone have any recommendations for computers to write on that can’t go online, and phones that also can get messages or calls but can’t go online.
Or experience with the brick?
