Looking for something to do this weekend? Then try your hand at predicting what will happen in 2026.

50 questions - simply say how likely each is to occur, on a range of 0% (won't happen) to 100% (will definitely happen).

Any question can be skipped.

New footage from the ICE agent's phone who shot at Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis has emerged, posted by AlphaNews on X. We've placed that footage in a synced timeline with the other currently available footage.

This is interesting because when I went for my first Covid vaccination, Farage arrived and pushed straight to the front of the queue.
Farage: "I believe in vaccinations when they're vaccinations. I don't think what happened with Covid were vaccinations. You have to keep having them every 6 months."

Conspiratorial nonsense.

Some vaccinations like Covid shots require multiple/seasonal doses because immunity fades & viruses change.

Your fact of the day:

The US Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that one in six American citizens suffers a food-borne illness annually. In the UK, the figure is one in 132.

If Trump gets his way you'd have substandard chicken in the UK food chain but it would also be much cheaper so UK poultry farms - which are built and regulated to those much higher standards - would be royally screwed.

It would benefit nobody apart from US farmers.

I'm sharing this here, as I have on Facebook and Instagram, but there's no account on here to share from, and I just think this is wonderful.

A really good balance of design and implementation, and appears to achieve everything it set out to do, and it *SO* appeals to my inner 'work nerd'.

A new mural has appeared in Ternopil, dedicated to children killed in Russia’s attack.

The artwork, showing a child shielding her toys from a Russian missile, was created by artist Andriy Yermolenko. He described it as “a cry for help to the global community.”

Farage said pretty much the same thing as the member of Reform Limited got bribed to say, lots of people are wondering why one person was paid to do it whilst Farage did it for nothing.

BBC has a case against Trump. WhiteHouse Chief Press Officer called the BBC ‘100% fake news.’ Which is defamatory and untrue.

The disturbing escalation of the assault on the BBC should be alarming to anyone who cares about truth, accountability and democracy.
Influential board member, Robbie Gibb, former GBNews adviser, Brexit endorser and previous owner of the Jewish Chronicle, is orchestrating this assault from within.

Proof, if it was ever needed, that Robert Gibb is a snivelling, MAGA worshipping, right wing lobbyist suffering from the same affliction as Truss, Johnson et al, namely they have been promoted far in excess of their real world abilities.
Gibb is both tainted and damaged goods, and needs to go..
