At these times of political violence, I want to show sympathy to Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark who were murdered in cold blood by a crazyman who got himself a police uniform and a police car to murder them at their home. Melissa was the speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives.

Call from a producer this morning:

Zoe please help - we thought the panel on our show was balanced, but it turns out they’re both pro-mass detention camps for asylum seekers. Would you come on to be the anti-detention camp voice?

We are in a really bad place, friends, I am telling you.

Why are UK News shows not pointing out Brexit has been a primary factor in the sky rocketing number of small boat crossings?

Peter Stefanovic @peterstefanovic.bsky.social · Aug 4

“This is Brexit Britain. We voted to take back control of our borders,” says Nigel Farage

Imagine his shock when he finds out Brexit is a primary factor in the sky rocketing number of small boat crossings

If you're worrying about what you may or may not be permitted to say or express under these new measures, just remember that supporters of the IDF don't have to worry about this sort of thing at all. They can declare their support for those murdering bastards as clearly and loudly as they like.

The Metropolitan Police has just issued a statement saying it will arrest people for expressing support for Palestine Action at protests this weekend

It says "officers will act" over the new terror offences that came into force at midnight

Absolutely pathetic. I got up at 5:55 to watch a Wales team that looked like a divisional 2nds team lose to a poor Japanese team that didn’t give up. We’re there with a caretaker coach that makes no sense. He didn’t sub Hardy OR Costellow. 18 straight loses is indefensible now

1st half review

Our set pieces have gotten worse
Japan are stealing our lineouts
Our kicking game is STILL pointless
Hardy is no Tom
Hardy/Costellow combo is like a melting ice cream with a sausage in it, it dsn work
The ref is weird & cnt see clear knock ons
But we’re…winning?
