Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator? This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

Did you watch The Hack? I can't believe papers have gotten away with destroying lives for so long. That's why I've signed the petition, set up by Hugh Grant and other phone hacking victims, to demand fair, independent regulation. Join me: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/a-...

It’s satire, but we’re likely very nearly there. And Clown Prince Trump has a nice ring to it!

This is a superb new resource about rejoining the EU. rejoin.info It takes all the thorny questions, and the objections and obstacles people throw in the way of rejoining, and tackles each one slowly, factually and calmly. Bottom line: we can rejoin. It won't necessarily take a very long time.

Whenever listening to someone in the tech world talk about the inevitable dominance of some tech or product, it's helpful to remember that 5 years ago every single one of them said that we were on the verge of everyone wearing VR headsets for work and play.

Between 1946 & 1981 the UK built 5 million council homes. Since 1981 we've built 250,000. The housing crisis is Thatcher's legacy, not a result of migration. @ianbyrnemp.bsky.social "Let us stop demonising those who come to the UK in search of safety security & a better life." youtu.be/FYvuy33_0Yk

Great to see so many Farage supporters defending his perverted nephew who was arrested for upskirting a woman by downplaying the crime. Almost as if their outrage isn’t really about “protecting women” and is more about weaponising sexual violence to promote racism, isn’t it?

Cue the usual empty threats of legal action, followed by a PR campaign and eventual silence. What we need is a police investigation.

We don't need any more cuts. A Wealth Tax of just 2% on assets over £10 million would raise £24 BILLION per year. That's what I've been fighting for - and that's the way to pay for the investment our public services so desperately need.

Those spreading lies and misinformation are not interested in the victims, they are interested in themselves. The priority is the action that has been absent for the past decade, not faux outrage from those who failed to act

Seen a few folks astonished by my lack of support for ChatGPT and similar. Because AI, right? Yeah, no. What we have right now is glorified autocorrect. Glorified autocorrect that takes the energy of an entire city to do what it does, plus half of Lake Erie to cool down while it's doing it.
