Tom was chair of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee during Covid then security minister for two years immediately afterwards - he is literally the person in the UK most likely to have evidence of this claim yet offers nothing. Millions of people died Tom! do feel free to share

Lexington is James Bennet, the guy who quit NYT after publishing fascist pervert Tom Cotton’s op-ed to “Send In The Troops” against BLM protestors. Thank god the economist snapped him up so we could continue to benefit from his good judgment

one week Brendan o neill scolded the left for talking about Israel and ignoring Sudan then the week after he wrote about Irish textbooks being too woke. Hey Brendan, you can write about Sudan if it’s so important to you!

@thespectator1828.bsky.social hey I wonder if possibly Freddy gray plays dumb for money and to empower fascists, idk seems like trump’s brain is broken and it’s not even my job to keep track of these things

@thespectator1828.bsky.social hey I know freddy gray thinks it’s an absurd conspiracy theory that Trump is a serial rapist so I guess he just felt compelled to defend the university at the heart of a rape scandal for other reasons

That Republicans fear their base will kill them probably explains why this doesn’t happen with them

Again, I go back to this one because Gray is not saying “I don’t think Trump is a nazI” he’s saying “it’s a laughable conspiracy theory” that he’s a Nazi. what sort of journalist looks at the most powerful person in the world and turns to his readers and goes “stop asking questions about this man”

completely agree! "'this knife is so sharp it's scary' said the knife salesman" - good sales tactic. 'this knife is so sharp it might kill your entire family' - less so

So am I reading right that a bunch of private companies think they’ve accidentally made doomsday weapons? Seems embarrassing for the ole capitalist system to me

Like there isn’t really another argument here - British school kids should learn about an event from 25 years ago in another country pretty much exclusively because if they don’t they might not hate Muslims enough

www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09... according to this embarrassing article the main problem with failing to teach kids about 9/11 seems to be it makes it harder to be racist towards Muslims

Heatwaves killed NATO citizens in the thousands this summer, it is mind-boggling that I’m still expected to worry about ISIS mooks maybe stabbing a couple of people every year instead

To be clear Thomas is also a racist who pines for the empire and wonders aloud if South Americans are genetically prone to violence, he’s a real waste of skin. his insane horniness is probably his most endearing trait and that’s not saying much

@thespectator1828.bsky.social hey is the president brainlessly rambling about the genetic health of a woman a sign of his good health or his non-Nazism? You might put Freddy gray on the case idk

@thespectator1828.bsky.social again Freddy is welcome to think it’s an absurd conspiracy theory that Trump is a paedophile but perhaps he might offer an alternative explanation for obstructing an investigation into trump’s close personal friend, the world’s most notorious paedophile
