Someday, I will share my experience on that other platform. I have a long history there.
But for now, we celebrate one another.
It's great to meet you again for the first time.

This shows you that it doesn’t matter what’s actually happening: what matters is what’s on the radio when people drive to work. And this government is surely the disastrously disproven test case for the proposition “the British press can be appeased via crackdowns and authoritarianism”.

The UK is giving up on economic growth to placate mediocre white people.
Net migration fell sharply agaim to 204,000 in the year to June 2025, having been 344k in 2024 and 848k in 2023. But falling immigration has been the biggest secret - and it is time for the media and political debate to catch up with this change

I get a surprisingly large number of responses saying “This is because the public are stupid” but for real, if that was the key issue, then it wouldn’t be necessary to constantly shitehouse people with the most misleading and inflammatory messages they can get away with. There would be no need.
It is IMO not possible to operate any kind of meaningful democracy when your national press is a joke and a travesty, but your mileage on that may vary. I think it’s incontestable that it is impossible to govern well and effectively, while being in hock to these pantomime clowns.

When my white friends repeat the anti-immigration lines fed to them by billionaires and their media partners; I always say "More Migrants. Less of You."
They feel attacked by this, for some reason. It's weird.
Why would we need more whiny white people here? We're full of those.
We need workers.

This is how it works: after lobbying Richard Tice with a trip to the French Riviera (to discuss "gas power" without having any expertise in the industry), the wife of a former Putin minister now attacks Labour and Conservatives. You don't need Specsavers to see what is going on.

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

BREAKING: as predicted, Republican Skandalakis has moved to dismiss the Fulton County RICO case against Trump et al.
This isn’t good news IMO. When Willis was disqualified from prosecuting fraudulent elector Burt Jones because she hosted a fundraiser for his opponent, Skandalakis took that case for himself and disappeared it. I imagine he’ll do the same here.
BREAKING: Pete Skandalakis, executive director of the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia, has appointed himself to prosecute the case against Trump and others in Fulton County.
The move follows a court ruling that disqualified Fani Willis from pursuing the case.

Pure logistical and tactical stupidity to send in 500 more guardsmen to bolster 1500 already there. No National Guard units from any other state are needed in any other state. They exist to help their own state when needed.
Trump and Hegseth are responsible for the shooting of those guardsmen.

Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10.

October 7th happened as a direct result of Likud policy that goes back to 2014. They ended negotiation with Palestinians. They attacked the Great March of Return. They select Hamas' leadership via airstrike. The embassy move by the USA was a provocation. Daily incitement at checkpoints.
