Honestly impressed at Starmer and Nandy's commitment to not doing their job. This guy is literally talking about his wife, his children, her, and her children, and they do nothing!
CT explains why he thinks Shabana Mahmood is neither English, nor British, to which Cole does not respond to at all.

Cole: asks how many generations? Is it a race thing?
CT: Not race as Albanians don't count either. It is ancestry.
It is infinite generations, if you don't have the ancestry.

I don't use the word lightly, but this is really just evil isn't it. "Your identity makes us uncomfortable so be gone from public spaces." Fuck off.
I mean come on: we'll ask but reserve right to exclude you on the basis of how you look. Oh, and if you try to use your birth sex specific facilities we'll kick you out of those as well.

Get fucked.

A pub in London Fields is trying to put up a timber canopy over its outside seating.

The planning process so far has taken FIVE YEARS. That’s longer than it took to build the entire Hoover Dam. capx.co/nimby-watch-...

Bleakly funny thing about present day British politics is that Keir Starmer has achieved the Blairite dream of representing *all* working people, but this Labour government hates it, because they would rather represent the 'right sort' of working person.

get why she had to go but irksome she lost her job to something quite complex and, let's be honest, reasonably minor in the grand scheme of things, when shadow cabinet members get to merrily hang out with Eddie Swastika without any repercussions

well on the one hand it's bad for democracy and social cohesion that Keir Starmer is trying to appeal to the racists by pretending to be one of them, but on the other hand it's not actually working and the racists still don't want to vote for him

I’m sorry but no. Protests and demos with dozens or low hundreds of attendees are not especially newsworthy. I’ve seen larger turnouts at a Warhammer event.

The tendency to credit GenAI efforts with the success of ML in much more specific (and appropriate) contexts to justify increasing emissions for AI slop generation is something to behold.

Less spicy: international law concerns all sorts of stuff that doesn't have to do with war, e.g. sea routes, banking, trade, postal services.

It's real!

One way that the modern Internet is terrible for liberalism is that it is really easy to find out about people who either dislike you or whose lifestyle choices you dislike, and frankly the best way to go through life, in so many ways, is just to be able to go 'that's not my concern'.
One thing I learnt many years ago that has never failed me since, is that what other people think of you is 100% irrelevant unless they are people you actually like & nothing you do in response will change how most ppl think of you anyway, so might as well just go live your life unconcerned with it

"Harriet Tubman was bad because she was a Federal spy" is a level of tankie I didn't know even existed.

Why did Harriet Tubman become a Federal spy, asshole? Who was she spying on?

again shout out to the Inbetweeners, where, a) they're played by people in their early 20s who can still pull off looking genuinely teenage (awkward and ugly) and b) absolutely nobody gets laid in the entire series until the movie spin-offs
a real thing that annoys me is that teen movies have teens played by people in their 30s who are banging their way through high school, a thing most people are not doing
Most mainstream sitcoms! And so popular teen movies were about how much boning teens are doing!
