People cited violation of the first amendment when a NJ teacher asserted that evolution and the Big Bang Theory are not scientific and that Noah's Ark carried dinosaurs. This case in not about the need to separate church and state; it about the need to separate ignorant, scientifically illiterate people from the ranks of teachers."  Tyson

If Muslims or members of the Asian and Black community had set fire to white people’s homes with children running for their lives, do you think we would be discussing legitimate concerns or focussing on who radicalised them and ideological and contributing cultural factors?

Extremely good sketch by @mrjohncrace.bsky.social from yesterday's PMQs, particularly this bit. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
That just left Nige to make political capital out of a young man’s death. Everything is just material for Nige. He doesn’t give a shit about anyone or anything but himself. He is devoid of empathy, unable to see beyond his own vanity.

His imagined glories. King of kings. Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair. “It’s now clear there is two-tier policing for different ethnic groups,” he began. Though he had no evidence to support this. Other than that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor would never have been arrested if he had been black. But Nige has never let the facts get in the way of his bigotry. And he has never needed his bigotry more than now.

Farage was not finished. There was anger spilling out on the streets of Southampton. Anger that he had done his best to stir up. He sounded disappointed that more people hadn’t been involved. He had asked for “pure cold rage”. But somehow the rage had not felt pure enough. Nor cold enough. Why couldn’t people even channel undiluted fury any more?

Starmer’s response was withering. He had the whole house, apart from the six Reform MPs, right behind him. He was disgusted with Farage’s comments. How dare he pretend to respect the wishes of Henry’s family. What he had done was unforgivable. The least anyone could do was keep quiet when asked. But Nige had, in a way, done us all a service. He had shown himself for who he really was. The whole country could now see through him.

It was as if we were watching the end of something. For 18 months, it has felt as if Reform is on an unstoppable roll. One triumph after another, as Labour and the Tories competed to be more useless than each other. But over the past six weeks, the shine has come off. They are the emperor with no clothes. Just another bunch of loudmouths with no answers. Just grievance.

The world’s largest sand battery got through Finland’s harshest winter in years. 2,000 tonnes of sand, heated to 500-600°C by cheap power, feeding district heating in Pornainen. And it worked. Result from one install: oil down 100%, emissions down 70%. Industrial process heat is the real prize.

New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez won a historic sum of $375 million in a landmark child safety case against Meta earlier this year. The next stage of the fight begins today, and it could be even more consequential for Meta and the social media industry at large.

Apart from the actual stats, the most reliable indicator that immigration is plunging (to our obvious economic detriment) is Nigel Farage turning his dishonest attentions to the mythical millions of benefits claimants.

“Brexit betrayal” - oh for god’s sake.. Every day, we’re paying to be poorer. We’re paying to be second class citizens on our own continent. We’re paying to queue. We’re paying for more red tape. We’re paying to be less secure and less trusted. Brexit IS the betrayal. And so is defending it.
