DEVELOPING: The Trump Administration has started firing "several hundred" FAA probationary employees who maintain critical air traffic control infrastructure, according to their union.

The move comes not even three weeks since the deadly midair collision over Washington, D.C.

When it was revealed James McMurdock MP had been convicted of assaulting his partner, Reform UK issued a statement which claimed: "James is ashamed of his past but his life since that time is a story of redemption."

Is following Andrew Tate a sign of his reformed character?

Searching #liberal or #democrat on Instagram now returns "We've hidden these results", #Republican has no such problem. Seems bad.

And my first personal post (rather than a re-post) is about DEI and recent events in America. It's an appeal to other LGB people to be better allies for Trans people. We don't always get it right but being an ally for a trans person in light of events yesterday in America is more important than ever

Meta's Mark Zuckerberg has joined Elon Musk in allowing disinformation to flourish on his platforms in order to gain Donald Trump's favor. It’s about to get very ugly on Facebook.

Andrew Norfolk is the former Times journalist whose work brought the grooming gang scandal to public attention...
Make no mistake. Every politician, pundit & online grifter amplifying Musk's dangerous lies will be aware of this intervention by now. Make no mistake, they are choosing to mislead the public & politicise the suffering of victims in the shameful pursuit of political advantage, attention & clicks.

Part of the reason why many people have a problem with Kuenssberg. There is a clear line between interrogating a policy and actively playing defence for the Tories - a defence which she often ascribes to "viewers".

Well, it is then perfectly fair for viewers to say: Hang on! No, I don't think that!
