Sky News on Renee Nicole Good murder: "There are deeply conflicting accounts of what happened."
REALLY? Gonna both-sides this? One "account" can be seen on video and is confirmed by a dozen eye-witnesses. The other is a social media post by history's most notorious pathological liar.
Grow a spine.

To all those saying "but if our government spoke out, there might be consequences", please remember that not speaking out also has consequences. The history of appeasement is not a reassuring one.

Good interview in the paper, this. I think Sadiq is right: London 'needs' to be less successful than it is for a bunch of political arguments here in the UK to work, hence the fictions being invented about it:
Populists attack London because it is ‘progressive and successful’, says Sadiq Khan
Rightwing attacks on one of the world’s most visited cities at odds with reality, says mayor

Funny how that works.

@bbcstever.bsky.social Did the Russians lift their mad, upside-down views of Britain's top-level villainy towards them directly from my school history textbooks (Birmingham) circa 1970? I'm sure I recognise them...

Israel continues to level Gaza in full view of the whole world, killing displaced civilians as it ethnically-cleansing Palestinian land.
This genocide is being built in Britain. Stop arming Israel now.

Israeli assault on Gaza kills 21 including attack on tents
At least 21 Palestinians have been killed as Israel’s war on Gaza continues, now destroying high-rise buildings as Hamas receives the US’ ceasefire proposal.

I don’t want to be too shrill about this but I think the BBC, ITV and Sky have disgraced themselves in their coverage of the anti-refugee protests. A massive failure of judgement. But now we know the next time a progressive protest “isn’t news” that it’s nothing to do with numbers

Wear big hats. I know this seems a silly thing to say, but we should not accept this without resistance.
Expanding police live facial recognition vans to new areas (including Sussex) without MPs ever debating new laws for using this technology is pure dystopia. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Government expands police use of live facial recognition vans
The Home Office says the technology helps locate suspects but civil liberties groups warn of heightened surveillance.

If I had one main takeaway: there's nothing special about the Murdochs or Musks of the world. Their ascent to power is a policy failure – and policy is changeable.
