"Just let him have the Sudetenland, he won't invade Poland." "Just let him have Greenland, he won't invade Canada." Hah, no. We in Europe actually learned our lesson on that one. Fuck off Mr Trump.

Funny how all these Brexit types have changed their tunes when faced with the reality of being a non-EU country, and having to go through all the passport checks that non-EU countries do...

That came very close to having to boycott #Eurovision entirely next year. However, one point - if Russia is (quite rightly) excluded for a war in which they commit war crimes, all countries doing the same should be.

In Manchester, where buses have been in public control since January, average fares have reduced by 15%, usage is up 4% on the year, punctuality is up on major routes by ~80%, and revenue is 4% over target. Public control is good start - next stop public ownership!

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

If you're a reporter in a White House press briefing as the spokesperson for the government asserts flatly that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang who's guilty of human trafficking and you sit there silently without shouting out "PROVE IT!" I'd like to invite you to go fuck yourself.

The foundation outline of a C7th church on the Heugh at Lindisfarne. Discovered as part of a community archaeology project, the remains may be associated with the first monastery founded by St Aidan and King Oswald in AD 635. 📸 My own. #SaxonSunday #Archaeology #Lindisfarne

@amnesty calls for an independent investigation into the deaths of 15 medical and rescue workers in Gaza. Israel maintains that six of the 15 were Hamas members, but that wouldn’t be an acceptable defence in court. The deliberate killing of medics and paramedics is a war crime.

I called out Nigel Farage in Parliament yesterday during a debate on the threat digital platforms pose to democracy. He's declared earnings of more than £100k from X, Google, Meta, and Cameo combined since the election. Social media barons won't be called to account if politicians are on the make.

When the far right get arsey about Le Pen (and a couple of dozen others) facing the consequences for their corruption, (and they are getting arsey), remember one thing. It's because they know they're vulnerable to the same consequences, because they are just as corrupt.

Funny to hear JD Vance critique Denmark—a country with universal healthcare, free university, paid parental leave, and low inequality—from the vantage point of a nation that can’t guarantee insulin or maternity leave. Denmark supports Greenland and still outclasses the U.S. socially.

Homeboy Industries, founded by a Jesuit priest in Los Angeles, transformed a church bakery into a space where former gang members learn to bake and rebuild. It’s not charity—it’s justice through opportunity, where hands once armed now create.
