Remember when Nigel Farage was more than happy to publicly big up the IRA for £74. The fuck you think he'll do for £72 million..

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

For all the blanket coverage it's getting today you wouldn't know that fishing contributes a grand total of 0.03% to the UK's economy, or that it is absolutely dwarfed by many other sectors, like the live music industry, which have been badly hit by Brexit but are rarely even mentioned

"For about an hour" was, in fact, for seven-and-a-half minutes each, with the UK PM getting the last word, then leading a Q&A session with media. But this is such an excellent example of the mendacious, awful, biased reporting that has been the hallmark of the entire Brexit debate for a decade. ~AA

Of course two EU Presidents get to speak for about an hour before the PM gets a word in.

Coverage of idiots claiming ‘betrayal’ or ‘surrender’ isn’t just bad journalism, it’s a dereliction of our duty to explain things. I’d actually forgotten just how bad it got but here we are, straight back to treating liars & spivs like authorities of equal weight to experts & honest brokers.

A useful test: arguments for controlled/reduced immigration + integration can speak to people across majority and minority groups. Is that the intent + the effect in specific cases. Highest % of people born abroad in census 2021: - Kensington & Chelsea (54%) - Bradford, overall, was 19%

The LA fires are a profound example of what climate scientists have been struggling to prevent for decades. I hope everyone remembers that oil and gas companies, with full knowledge, created this future, in exchange for their windfall profits and geopolitical power.

8. What this shows is that any value, however beneficial, can be picked up and weaponised against us by capital and its concierges, in the most cynical fashion. Never take their claims at face value. Never accept their premises. Never let them define the agenda.

Fact-checking is not censorship. Requesting evidence is not censorship. Refuting falsehoods is not censorship. Stopping a lie from travelling halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on is not censorship. But Zuckerberg's grovelling to Trump will sure as hell lead to censorship.
