I live in rural. I go to the pub. I don't paint my nails
- cba. I have subscriptions to The Times, The Telegraph, The Spectator and Spiked. I hate the guardian and was sad when Rod Liddle died. I adore Douglas Murray and Julie Burchill.
Am I right wing, far right or fascist?

The only way they would shut down AI is if it became self-aware but started to say things like 'net zero now' and 'stop destroying orangutan habitat'. Do you know how quickly they pull the plug if AI came out as woke 😂

On the left, Dan Niedle's column in the Telegraph
Unless they take up one of the Government’s subsidised childcare schemes, in which case their marginal tax rate will be 2,000,000pc. Because this isn’t The Guardian, you know that’s not a misprint.The UK's independent press regulator, IPSO (Independent Press Standards Organisation), has multiple times upheld complaints or forced corrections against The Daily Telegraph for utilizing incorrect data, flawed mathematics, or misstated statistics.

I find this tweet to be significant beyond the obvious cringe factor. We have built a media environment in which people make statements that display utter ignorance, they never bothered to check the facts underlying their claims - and it sways votes./1

Today in unreadable Reach websites, I clicked a link to a Mirror article in the Facebook app. After three seconds it spontaneously opened the Booking dot com app, then when I went back to Facebook not only had the Mirror page crashed but it took the Facebook app with it. Absolute junk all round.

Confess I wasn't sure whether to read it because of the 'How to spot' headline; but this, by @zoesqwilliams.bsky.social, is, IMHO, very good.

No psychiatrist or psychologist with ethics would assess a person without meeting them. And if they did, their ethics would mean their assessment should stay confidential.
+ Why would 'Professor Plagiarism' make such outlandish claims? DR MAX PEMBERTON has been a psychiatrist for 20 years.

Here he examines the questions facing Jason Arday and says there's one condition that could explain everything

Just spotted my first actual “taking are country back” in the wild. This is in response to the self-acknowledged neo-Nazi group White Vanguard planning a march.

Did you seriously expect Binface to actually win? That was never on the cards. What Binface did though was outstanding. And now Farage is reduced to hiding behind a lie to avoid him. The whole episode has massively weakened Farage as a populist, hopefully fatally. And he did it to himself.

Checked out the recently deceased’s Wikipedia page to remind myself of his greatest shits. Was surprised to find the subject of this leading the eulogies
Screengrab of a paragraph on Rod Liddle’s Wikipedia page: The article also criticised the Labour MP Rosie Duffield's recent speech about her experience of trying to exit an abusive relationship; Duffield described the article as "racist and misogynistic".
