I didn’t write about the cotton famine. I’m not a dialect poet. Thoughts about stuff, I suppose.

The complete Bayeux Tapestry has finally been released and proves that Bishop Odo had absolutely nothing to do with the illegal Norman invasion of England.

Principles are important. 😃
I’m very pleased that Jonathan Gullis has joined Reform – we need more conviction politicians with strongly held principles. In other news, here he is explaining why there is absolutely no chance he would ever defect to Reform.

Idea: whining about your taxes in the press comes with a *free* wallet inspection from HMRC just to make sure you're not over paying

It is odd to me that, like, you'd think it'd be parody if you said: to be clear, they only like the bad bits of Western Civilisation -- but that turns out to be true. They like the rapacious imperial murder, but not the art or intellectual achievements or civil liberties, etc.
i mean what are these "western values" these guys are so hopped up about? they are directly antagonistic to western europe. they don't believe in civil liberties. they reject democracy. and don't get me started on christianity, they hate their white neighbors almost as much as the brown ones

"things happen" = burning risotto, breaking a vase, forgetting a friend's birthday

"things happen" ≠ violently murdering and dismembering a journalist in a consulate
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Interesting read...
This is a billionaire-funded Tony Blair lobbying project being funnelled unchallenged onto the front page of a national newspaper.

So pleased Laura Kuenssberg is interviewing Nigel Farage - the poor bloke has been starved of publicity, with the BBC only repeating every single thing he says every fucking day.

The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before?

That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators.

My how times change ...

Just re-read this while in Berlin doing a lot of commuting - it's as good as I remembered.
I first read this masterpiece 12 years ago. It’s an incredible account of my oldest mates time as the 2nd most crucial member of the madhouse that was The Fall. It basically reimagines I Claudius set to music. Magnificent… well done (again) brother. @stephenhanley6.bsky.social 💥

Preach.
The biggest divide in politics is between people who hear the word "socialism" and think "Soviet bread lines" and people who hear it and think "I'm told there are countries where cancer isn't also going to make me bankrupt".
So, my advice to centrist and center-left pundits who are trying their damnedest to fear-monger over democratic socialism: come up with a more attractive alternative for working class families and quickly. The past six months have accelerated frustration. You need to read the room.

Yep. Stephen Kapos, 87, who survived the Holocaust in Hungary, whose father was killed in Bergen-Belsen, was question by the police after a pro-Palestine demonstration for *checks notes* laying flowers.

Our government has helped kill 200,000+ Palestinian children. And they call him a terrorist.

Oh FUCK YEAH, this did NOT disappoint! I knew the first time Trump mentioned Mamdani it would be the good stuff but it's better than I could have ever dreamed! My favourite bit is "He looks TERRIBLE" hahahaha Trump is such a catty little bitch.

A fundamental problem we have is the legal powers given to those who input into EHCPs are given without accompanying accountability. This feels really weird.
I think this lack of accountability probably drives bad provision and means there's little incentive for those who input onto the plans to learn about context. It feels bizarre they can just say "do this" and then sort of just walk away.

Stop this man.
Trump and Musk are eliminating 90% of Social Security’s regional staff—and, at the same time, will now only post public updates from Social Security on a platform owned by Musk, where more than 90% of seniors won’t see them. Corrupt, cruel, and wrong.

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.”

Russell Brand has just been charged with Rape by Police in the UK.

He is currently hiding in the USA.

He needs to be deported now to face justice.
