You can get my book Borderlines in electronic form for an amazing 99p at the moment; at a time when politicians are fetishising borders, why not look at them in a bit more detail, and get the view from Europe’s borders? www.amazon.co.uk/Borderlines-...

In an attempt to show Gary Neville how wrong he was to suggest that middle aged white men are putting flags up to make a point, some middle aged white men have put flags up outside his hotel to make a point.

"Peter Mandelson lost his job for being friends with a paedophile. Donald Trump, who was friends with the same paedophile, was given a state banquet hosted by a King whose brother lost his job because he was friends with the same paedophile.“

Sunday isn’t Sunday without Stewart Lee. We were so thrilled at @thenerve.news that Stewart came with us.

His satirical columns for the Observer were some of our most-read content: funny, surreal, angry true. Essential weekend reading.

"It pisses them off so much. Neville lives rent-free inside their heads."

Nigel Farage has criticised Gary Neville for his comments about 'angry white men' dividing the UK. Has his "shallow patriotism" been exposed?

‘Gary Neville is a political threat to Nigel Farage because he doesn’t think the same' | The News Agents

Gary Neville has accused “angry, middle aged white men” of stoking division in the UK following the Manchester synagogue attack on Yom Kippur. His comments have angered right-wing voices, but is this…

Any ideas what may have happened in the interim?

I can taste the panic these two felt doing their little stencilling. So casual with ‘own goal’ thinking they had all the space in the world. Look at the chasm between own and goal! Then sudden panic about whether there’s enough room for ‘Neville’. Eventually settling for ‘Nev’ after a crisis meeting

FIVE people reading physical books on this Tube carriage on the Jubilee line. All look to be under 35. Remember this, next time someone over 60 tells you that “young people don’t read anymore.”

In other news, here's the sometime deputy Conservative Prime Minister Michael Heseltine finding the words that seem to be perpetually eluding the present Labour Prime Minister.

BBC Newsnight @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social · 1d

“You described Reform and other parties across Europe today as among the 'right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s'. Why?”

“Because that’s what they are”

@vicderbyshire.bsky.social asks Lord Heseltine about remarks he made at Conservative Party Conference.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Mossad, like the FSB, also operates in leftist spaces posing as the most radical anti-Israel and/ anti-imperialist voices while engaging in bad faith purity politics meant to disable support for projects, programs, and individuals not approved by the state.
