Putin rails against “Western elites” while being mega-rich after a lifetime in government. His circle sends their kids to Western schools, buys villas, passports, and mega-yachts, and hides wealth abroad.
He isn’t anti-elite, he’s the elite of elites. Hypocrisy, exposed.

Who believes this shit?

Fox is blaming RFK Jr. for the measles outbreak. They promoted him, supported his nomination, and now they are turning on him. 🙄

I for one will definitely be ignoring pesky health professionals & turning instead to newspaper columnists who backed Brexit, Boris Johnson, Donald Trump & Liz Truss for all my expert health advice during this very serious flu outbreak.

Meanwhile Robin Ince genuinely has been cancelled for daring to voice his opinions and for defending trans people.

Where's the outrage from the "cancel culture" lot?

What are the Free Speech Union doing to help him?

Whispers "perhaps the problem is *you* Graham... and not all your many ex friends."

Graham Linehan has such little self-awareness he *really* doesn’t understand how totally unhinged he seems in his ‘woe is me’ batshit crazy ranting! 😬

He’s the ‘cautionary tale’ of what obsessive ‘gender critical’ transphobia leads to: no friends, no life, and spaghetti carbonara for one!
The Telegraph Graham Linehan My trans critics are cowards. Yes, Ardal O'Hanlon - that includes yOu I expected more from my friend of 25 years. But he would rather condemn me than fight for the rights of women and girls I expected more from Ardal. I never thought he would intone the catechism. "I still get on great with everyone," he said in a recent interview with The Times, "though I haven't seen much of the show's creator, Graham Linehan, and am baffled as to why he got involved in the culture wars. I feel sorry for him - he's entitled to his opinions, but the way he presented them made it confrontational. When I read that, I phoned him immediately. When people betray me, I always make the mistake of phoning them straight away. My heart was thumping in my chest as I found his number and gave him a faux-polite, "Hey Ardal, how's it going?". My anger was already boiling. I knew exactly what he would say - the exact same things Bill Bailey said when I phoned him, the exact same things Amelia Bullmore said when I wrote to her. I knew, and I phoned anyway, because I can't help myself. And when he started reading from the same script as all the others, I lost my temper. At some point, Ardal said, "I just disagree with you." I would have said all this to him on the phone, but I was so angry I could not get any of it out. In fact, at one point I said, "You're on my f--ing s--t list." Ridiculous, of course, but unfortunately true. Like Father Ted at the Golden Cleric Awards, I keep a tally of every person who took the easy path and watched me twist in the wind. I can't help it. I remember them all. Tim Heidecker saying I'd gone down a "rabbit hole". David O'Doherty, who didn't have the guts to speak to me. My own brother-in-law publicly calling me insane. Adam Buxton, Jon Ronson, Richard Herring, Stewart Lee. People who knew me, people who had my phone number, people who could have asked, people who assumed the worst because doing otherwise would have exposed them to the same treatment I was receiving. In condemning me, to use Douglas Murray's line, they raise a little flag outside their home so the mob will pass them by. And every time one of them hands a journalist another little quote - another "baffled," another "sorry," another "he's awful, but I hope he's okay" - they get to carry on with their lives while mine gets smaller. None of them

Fuck YES! And to the fuckers saying it’s political, it’s not. It’s about people having the freedom to be themselves & celebrate who they are. You’re going to be in Seattle during Pride, why did you expect? 🤭🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

"Migrants who came to the UK on skilled work visas in 2022-23 will make a net contribution of £47bn to the public finances over their lifetime, according to new estimates from the government’s Migration Advisory Committee."

Not surprising, but some observations (1/n)

1994 was the worst World Cup of my lifetime.
The 2026 shitshow is likely to make 1994 look like Mexico 1970 or Spain 1982.
A celebration of the beautiful game it ain't.

It's a bit rich for Badenoch to call Starmer a caretaker when her position as Tory leader is less secure than the manager of Watford.

Reform UK councillor slapped with a £40,000 fine for hiring an illegal worker. 🤔

So much for "taking back control", apparently the rule is: deport them… but only after we’ve squeezed some cheap labour out of them.

A masterclass in hypocrisy!

Spurs are removing a pride flag for tonight's game at the request of the opponents Slavia Prague who apparently can't control their fans behaviour upon seeing a rainbow.

The flag is in a prominent position for TV we've probably all seen it.

Another backwards step 🤦‍♀️

Russia doesn’t want peace. Russia wants to conquer Ukraine by force.

Russian pundits make this clear with their violent rhetoric.

When are we to expect newspaper front-page interview features with Dr. Beth Upton about her two-year ordeal of having her right to anonymity removed and her name dragged through the mud and being decried as a sexual predator only for a tribunal to clear her and find SHE was discriminated against?
