Today Ed Davey will call for a new deal that puts Britain back at the heart of Europe. Britain needs a new plan. For growth, for jobs, for defence.

Seems fitting that Larry the Cat has been the only steady presence in British politics during this turbulent decade 🐱

‘Writers and Lovers’ by Lily King is a wonderful wonderful book. My sadness in finishing it is overshadowed by one of the best endings to a book ever created. ❤️ @lilyking.bsky.social

So, I've got some questions for Nigel Farage, about his £5m gift. Here's one: "You have previously stated that on police advice, you hold no parliamentary surgeries…Given that we now know you have a large private security budget, why are you unable to hold constituency surgeries?" Here's the rest:

Never forget: 8 years ago a random person on Craigslist wrote the most effective ad for the Toyota Corolla, ever.
Images of an old silver 1999 Toyota Corolla for saleYou want a car that gets the job done? You want a car that's hassle free? You want a car that literally no one will ever compliment you on? Well look no further.
The 1999 Toyota Corolla.
Let's talk about features.
Bluetooth: nope
Sunroof: nope
Fancy wheels: nope
Rear view camera: nope...but it's got a transparent rear window and you have a fucking neck that can turn.
Let me tell you a story. One day my Corolla started making a strange sound. I didn't give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End.
You could take the engine out of this car, drop it off the Golden Gate Bridge, fish it out of the water a thousand years later, put it in the trunk of the car, fill the gas tank up with Nutella, turn the key, and this puppy would fucking start right up.
This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children.
Things this car is old enough to do:
Vote: yesConsent to sex: yes
Rent a car: it IS a car
This car's got history. It's seen some shit. People have done straight things in this car. People have done gay things in this car. It's not going to judge you like a fucking Volkswagen would.
Interesting facts:
This car's exterior color is gray, but it's interior color is grey.
In the owner's manual, oil is listed as "optional."
When this car was unveiled at the 1998 Detroit Auto Show, it caused all 2,000 attendees to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in air pressure inside the building caused a partial collapse of the roof. Four people died. The event is chronicled in the documentary "Bored to Death: The Story of the 1999 Toyota Corolla
You wanna know more? Great, I had my car fill out a Facebook survey.
Favorite food: spaghetti
Favorite tv show: Alf
Favorite band: tie between Bush and the Gin Blossoms
This car is as practical as a Roth IRA. It's as middle-of-the-When I ran the CarFax for this car, I got back a single piece of paper that said, "It's a Corolla, It's fine."
Let's face the facts, this car isn't going to win any beauty contests, but neither are you. Stop lying to yourself and stop lying to your wife. This isn't the car you want, it's the car you deserve: The fucking 1999 Toyota Corolla.

Emotional. We turned up in our hundreds of thousands. With love, joy and hope in bucketloads. Know that today wasn’t the end of a journey, it was the beginning. This is how we’ll turn the tide against the far right. We outnumber them, now let’s outorganise them.
Header and Main Text
The top features the "TOGETHER" logo in a bold, capitalized font. Below it, the primary headline reads: "TODAY, WE COME TOGETHER TO TURN THE TIDE."

Body Copy
The central text states:
"For too long, the far right have tried to divide our communities. For too long, they have preyed on the economic insecurity of working people, the lack of decent jobs and secure housing, our fears for our families, to promote racism and division."

It continues with highlighted phrases:

That ends today.

"Today, we are bringing together a mass movement of resistance to the far right - a movement built on solidarity and unity in the face of hate and division."

"Today, we prove that we are the majority."

See you in London, followed by "Together Alliance" written in a green, handwritten-style font.

Footer
The bottom section is a black banner containing:

The call to action: "STAND TOGETHER. ORGANISE." (with "ORGANISE" in pink).

A white button-shaped box with the URL: togetheralliance.org.uk.

A QR code on the right, circled with pink scribbled lines.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

A core #Brexit promise was that the UK would save £350m/week. Money which, according to Boris Johnson, would go to the NHS. At the time (2016), Sarah Nobles set up a website to track how much Johnson owes the NHS. It's still online. The NHS never saw a penny.
