Congratulations to the AfD on their election result in Saxony-Anhalt, the first time a far-right party have won a state election in Germany since the Nazis. I just hope that British people haven't learned the lessons of history either.

The best tribute to Dolly Parton is that she regularly and repeatedly refused to have anything to do with Piers Morgan

RIP Dolly Parton.

Never met her, never interviewed her (despite decades of unrequited requests) but thought she was utterly fabulous in every way.

If early release can be altered so as to exempt homicide offences, it should be. Prisoners who have caused the gravest harm should be among the last to benefit from the overcrowding crisis. But carving out exceptions for individual prisoners in response to media campaigns is weak and unprincipled.

It's fascinating to watch commentators who sat completely silently for a decade as the Conservative Government changed its leader four times in a row mid-term, now suddenly discover such a keen interest in the concepts of 'mandates' and 'legitimacy'

I've been reading posts saying AI puts an end to "Agile." That's nonsense. AI agents are an irrelevance in an Agile context. Agents cannot tell you what to build, which is the key problem. It was never about coding, so much as writing the correct code. 1/4

Guy on the radio earlier saying we should all save our shower water and use that to flush the toilet. Around 60 companies are responsible for 80% of all global carbon emissions; telling us as individuals to do something without addressing that is just gaslighting and guilt tripping.

Here’s a funny thing. I’ve just found a tweet from Jan 2020 asking what quid pro quo was for these peerages? In Part 2 of our series #HarborneReceipts Rupert Lowe alleges Tories offered them to Farage as part of a deal. Farage said he turned the deal down. But did he?

I know so many Americans, who are the best people I have ever met! It's sad your country is going through these...
Panel 1: Against a light blue background, Sven stands on the left, looking up at a white, simplified character sitting behind a high gray desk labeled "INSURANCE". Sven says, "I NEED HEALTHCARE". The insurance agent looks at him with an open mouth, saying, "LMAO! YOU SERIOUS?".

Panel 2: The scene slightly zooms out. A second white character has joined the first behind the insurance desk. The first agent points dramatically at Sven, shouting to his colleague, "HEY! THIS GUY WANTS HEALTHCARE!". The second agent throws his head back in intense laughter, shouting, "AHAHAHA!!". Sven stands there looking dejected and small.

Panel 3: The scene abruptly cuts to a bedroom with a purple wall. Sven is in bed, waking up in a cold sweat with a terrified, wide-mouthed expression, sweating and shouting, "NOOOO!!". Next to him, a green-skinned partner with blonde hair opens their eyes sleepily and asks, "WHAT'S WRONG, SVEN?".

Panel 4: A close-up of Sven sitting up in the dark against a pitch-black background. He looks deeply shaken, clutching his head with sweat dripping down his face. He somberley says, "I THINK I HAD AN AMERICAN DREAM...".

Before Nigel Farage and Reform UK tell you he is now Prime Minister, note there are 650 MPs in Parliament and 20,000 councillors in the UK. Today’s results will likely end with Reform UK having 2500-3000/20,000 councillors and still just 8/650 MPs.

The first thing Nigel Farage will introduce if he is elected is Health Insurance. The NHS correctly costs £200bn a year. In the USA Health Insurance is £14,000 a year per person £14,000 x 50m adults is £700bn a year. £500bn a year profit If you can't afford that you are dying

Looking at UK election results, we’re now a country of political illiterates and I blame journalists for it. And I do not only mean the BBC, I mean the entire profession. Especially all the ones that put their own celebrity above integrity (e.g. those who went into podcasting).

Wait a minute, is this the same Richard Tice who repeatedly called for Angela Rayner to resign over her dubious tax shenanigans? Surely not, because that would make him look like a hypocritical wanker. Oh.

When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 in stamp duty, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should resign if she had “any moral decency”. Now we learn he set up four shell companies that let him avoid paying £100,000 he owed in tax and to then transfer the cash to Reform

When the US admits that they killed any “military-aged men” who walked within 3km of a downed pilot they mean any boy lanky enough to be a teenager and any middle-aged man able to walk unaided with a cane got shot in the head for the crime of walking.
