"Gareth Sheridan went to Tucker Carlson's Christmas party" is already crazy, but "Gareth Sheridan took a photo with the world's most famous antisemitic conspiracy theorist, then voluntarily posted it on the Internet" is blowing my fucking mind

Fun fact of the day: most Muslims in Michigan didn't actually vote for Trump.
They mostly called bullshit on the false dichotomy of choice that their only valid choices were to vote for him or his equally pro-genocide mainstream candidate Harris.

Most of them voted for the Jewish anti-genocide woman. I feel like that's something too many people forget. www.metrotimes.com/news/most-mi...

The European Commission has lost access to its control panel for buying and tracking ads on Elon Musk’s X — after fining the social media platform €120 million for violating EU transparency rules.
X axes European Commission’s ad account after €120M EU fine
Nikita Bier, X’s head of product, accused the EU executive of trying to amplify its own social media post about the fine on X by trying “to take advantage of an exploit in our Ad Composer.”…

The GFA provides for two types of unification referendum, the mandatory one we talk about often, and the little-discussed discretionary type. The refusal of the political establishment here to plan for a border poll is a strategic error that leaves us wide open to the threat described in this piece.
The Irish Government should be planning for a once unthinkable event: Nigel Farage becoming PM and weaponising a border poll against Ireland, relishing the chaos he could cause. He could do this within the law, and nationalism couldn't easily complain.
How Nigel Farage could weaponise a border poll against the Irish state
There is a type of border poll which once would have been unthinkable but for which the Irish government now ought to be planning.

The most entertaining part is that they could increase funding to properly pay and equip our defence forces without needing to touch the triple lock. The fact that they haven't and none of them are advocating that demonstrates how the only thing they want is to sit with the "bigger boys". Pathetic
The Irish commentariat has gone into overdrive, not just misinforming but outright lying about threats to our security.
What makes it worse is that this small handful of people with paid column inches, media appearances & think tanks dismiss the majority as 'lecturing' others.

All of this is fascism. And not early stage either. This is the embedding of the Right Wing Daily Mail press consensus as the absolutely unshakable common sense of the UK state. Made possible because the "left wing" party has abdicated any kind of moral position on it.

The “Labour” Party finds itself arguing ordinary workers, carers and others are “takers”.
Hey everyone, here's the news, if you aren't a high earner, entrepreneur or a "skilled frontline worker" (whatever the fuck that means) the "Labour" Party says you aren't contributing, you're a taker!
This is so disgusting.
