The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Nigel Farage has been out today defending a platform that creates child sex abuse images and harasses women. Remember this the next time he says his anti immigrant rhetoric is motivated by concern for women and children.

🚨 “Can I tell you how many times in the last 45 years the European Court of Human Rights has ruled against the UK when it comes to deporting people from this country - only 13 times - in 45 years”

Please remember this in 2026 when Nigel Farage tells you we must leave the ECHR to control our borders
Human rights are universal - politicians may not always find them politically convenient but it shouldn’t fall to any government to say who those rights should & should not apply to. Because none of us then has rights, just privileges that can be taken away by those in power

Good morning. Let's make a collective resolution: this will be the year in which we start to turn things round.

I'd like to think 2026 is the year populism falls apart in both Britain and America.

Over here, there are early signs that the process of populist radicalisation (and ever greater stupidity) is becoming too much for some of them and lines are being drawn.

When Charlie Kirk, a commentator who stirred up hatred and prejudice was killed, the Trump government led a purge against anyone who commented on it in a way they didn’t like. When a beloved director & actor is brutally murdered, Trump mocks and criticises him just hours later. Revolting hypocrisy.

Not enough prominent people are calling this out and too many politicians and journalists in the mainstream media keep doing this.

Refugee = not illegal immigrant
Refugee = not criminal
Refugee = person fleeing persecution or conflict

This is a matter of law, not opinion.
The conflation of "foreign criminals" and "illegal migrants" is disgusting.

Vile when some people don't have a safe route to flee from the utter detestation & brutality of war.

It's all grim enough without the Labour Government pushing further misinformation.
The Home Office continues to use language that its own data refutes

Not the first to make this point. But there is a tyrant in charge of another country who is accused of being heavily linked to a paedophile sex ring - and supposed ‘patriots’ in this country are passionately willing him to take down our national broadcaster. Madness.

Once again, #DementiaDon confuses his own performance with that of a decent, hard-working, compassionate and very smart guy. #Dementia is a cruel mistress, and #DozyDon should know - he's had plenty.

This is precisely the kind of government coercion that the First Amendment was designed to prevent — and media companies need to start standing up rather than capitulating to it.

I just read a FB post discussing Erika Kirk's message to their followers. The main caption was "The left has no idea what they unleashed"
What did we unleash? The shooter was a republican who didn't think Kirk was far right enough?

It's no surprise that Nigel Farage hardly ever bothers to visit Clacton or turn up at Parliament. When he was an MEP, his attendance record was 748th out of 751. He's a workshy grifting gobshite.

All Reform did today was sound a massive dog whistle to morons. Exactly like he did with Brexit, Nigel Farage is promising things that make racist numbskulls come in their pants, but which are total fantasy and completely undeliverable.

Scientists find link between genes and ME/chronic fatigue syndrome
Large study suggests people’s genetics could ‘tip the balance’ on whether they would develop the illness

With clear evidence of a genetic predisposition linked to relevant biological pathways, these findings need to mark a turning point away from medicine's historic failure to correctly research this disease and meet its duty of patient care.

The initial DNA results from DecodeME are coming this week! We will release them on our website on Wednesday 6th August at 7pm (approx).

We're letting you know the timing in advance so you can pace beforehand.

Thank you to our participants & supporters.

As a Jew I am far, FAR more alarmed by our institutions equating me and other Jews with the IDF, who are responsible for the murder of over 80,000 Palestinians, by dint of framing any critique against the IDF as ‘antisemitism.’

Linking all Jews to the IDF is *actual* fucking antisemitism.

This week, the project team reached a significant milestone: we are into the final analysis stage which tests millions of DNA variants for their association to ME/CFS. Completion of the write-up and announcement of the results will follow as soon as possible.
