delighted to have curated this moment (it was SO GOOD I have never enjoyed being a pub manager more than yesterday)
My wife went to watch a live screening of the gay hockey thing in a pub last night. Played on the screens they normally use for live sport. Living in London is the best.

2nd July 1863. Battle of Gettysburg. For perhaps the only time in the entire war the Confederates seem to be winning.
Dan Sickles, commander III Corps, is ordered hold on Cemetery Ridge. For reasons unknown he advances. Broken, his men begin to flee.
This is the moment on which the war depends /1

How grotesque the mixture of ambivalence and retreat into useful lies has been to see from news shows , bigots , bots and right wing politicians talking about Renee Nicole Good

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

So we’re just announcing foreign strikes and kidnappings of foreign leaders on social media now? No Congress. No explanation.
This is madness.

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist.
Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

Blatant and opportunistic self-promotion incoming...
Five years ago today it seemed that the golden age of naval idiocy had disappeared forever.
That was before the Venezuelan patrol vessel Naiguatá managed to recapture some of this spirit by fighting - at least at that point - the dumbest action of the 21st century.

My great uncle Reza fled Iran and arrived in the UK in the 70s. All he had was some Persian rugs, which he sold to start his life over. Starmer’s Labour would have denied him that chance and a huge part of my family would never have existed.

The success of the far right is not only measured in votes and seats but in its impact on rhetoric, policy and ideology. The fact that a (nominally) social democratic head of government with a huge majority choses to say and do this is maybe the biggest success of the far right in Europe yet.
