Davey is clearly personally very wedded to Care reforms, and has always been pro PR. And his party very pro EU. The PM is promoting all three. Surely a moment to celebrate and engage meaningfully rather than point score alienating your own MPs & members? news.sky.com/story/lib-de...

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.an isolated shot of a star wars vehicle. Sorry, I don't know star wars lol

If it were that easy to give a get-out-of-jail-free card to host-state nationals whom you hire to commit crimes on your behalf, a lot of states would have done it by now. There’s a reason why most people can’t remember a single instance of that happening.

To think there are still people out there talking about "targeted strikes" and "minimising civilian casualties". This is no different to what Russia has done in Eastern Ukraine.

At this point I would honestly prefer that the UK authorities said nothing on this than they kept dribbling out cryptic clues like it's a murder mystery evening. "What if I told you one of them rang 999 himself?" "We've bailed them, but it's still Iran, what might that mean?" Not. Helpful.

such a good eg of why political argument matters - polling previously showed over 60% support for keeping triple lock. Argue to unlock it *for something people also want* & numbers can change. (Obv can change back again if someone makes a good argument against, but either way, politics=argument)

The degradation of British politics has either made Suella Braverman – a former *attorney general* – this stupid and irresponsible, or else entirely indifferent to appearing as such to those who know the law if it gets her applause from her online fan base.
