👮JOIN THE UK POLICE👮 The starting salary, in the Met for example, is £43,689, rising to £46,416 upon completion of your 3yrs training. And that training will equip you the necessary skills to identify and arrest older people who dare to oppose GENOCIDE and support the basic human right of protest.

Arrête Mark Carney ⚜️ @lalegault.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
This bill is unconstitutional and everyone should support a general strike by Canadian unions. This bill was requested by 🇺🇸 CEOs at Carney’s summit to make abusing labour easier. This government is an abomination. I hope the Unions fight like hell & take them to court. #cdnpoli #canlab

A. Clarkson thinks that you'll think that standing up to the fash is bad because you (like him) believe being told off for being unpleasant inevitably leads to people becoming (more) fascist.
A four panel comic by Matt Bors.

Panel one: Woman looking at her phone, distressed: "My Gawd these Trump people are racist."
Man in MAGA hat, angry: "That attitude is what's pushing me to be racist!"

Panel 2:
Woman, confused: "Say what?"
MAGA man, angry: "Might as well! You say I'm a Nazi so fine I'll be a Nazi if that what makes you happy."

Panel 3:
Woman, more confused: "It... doesn't."
MAGA man: *Holding Waffen SS uniform* "I bought this Waffen SS uniform for Halloween. You'll cry 'offensive' so maybe I'll just wear it every day."

Panel 4:
MAGA man: "I just hate to do this" *Is shaving his head and getting a swastika tattoo on his arm.* "I feel bullied, really."

The geographer in me loves this. Africa is ~14× larger than Greenland, yet on the Mercator map they can look almost the same size. Serious implications for perception, representation and equity, as maps don’t just show the world… they shape how we see it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
