❤️‍🔥Tory sources confirm that Nadhim Zahawi made approaches to senior members of Kemi Badenoch's team about getting a peerage just weeks before defecting to Reform UK - but was turned down.

Following coverage over the weekend of Sir Paul Nurse's comments that suggested that the only reason that a Fellow should be expelled from @royalsociety.org is scientific misconduct, I have written to him to explain the risks such an attitude poses of increasing sexual harassment in STEM.

Remember this guy didn’t just fail to pay the tax he owed. He then used legal threats to try and stop people setting out the truth of what happened
Reform: the home for failed Tories. In this case failed in the sense of failed to pay HMRC loads of tax he owed
NEW: Former Tory Chancellor Nadhim Zahawi defects to Reform.

Most senior member of the last Conservative govt yet to join the party.

If you are waiting for a sense of conscience to kick in, you are fooling yourself. This will stop when we make it stop.
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

This is absolutely what happened.
He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

BBC News at Ten still pushing the line that Grok has completely paywalled “image editing”, except we know it hasn’t. Even Channel 4 bothered to demonstrate how the paywall was not there if you went direct to an image and opened the options rather than publicly replying and asking Grok to do it

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

Inordinately pleased that my car insurance is 15% cheaper this year. Clearly Aviva have looked at me and gone, "at your age you're definitely not going to risk any sudden movements" 🙃

Mealiest possible personal goal achieved: having realised I hadn't ever properly watched it all, I managed to get through the entirety of Star Trek (the original series, aka Those Old Scientists) before it fell off Netflix today. Phew!

I say this often but it bears repeating: if you make your money from creating art then you NEED to find an art or craft where you just do it for fun and don't try to be perfect or make any money from it, and when anyone tells you to monetise it you say 'No', because otherwise your soul will die.

Want to know what the UK would look like under Farage?

Look at the US right now.

The US far-right *is* the UK far-right, with the same people pulling all the strings on both sides of the Atlantic. The useful idiots are different, but the ideas, the tactics, and the funding are the same
Well spotted on the date.

In his emails to Epstein in mid November 2018 Bannon claims to have met up with Rees Mogg, Farage and Boris Johnson to keep Brexit on track and defeat Theresa May. Farage denies this…. And yet….
