A bluesky post from centrist dork and Tool fan Ian Dunt. It says "Few people stil rying this 'continuity Starmer' line. It's a very poor attack. Wrong on substance and wrong intuitively. They'll have to find a better one."

instead of asking if you’ve heard that “Choosin’ Texas” song, people should be asking if you’ve heard “Melatonin” by Tinashe.

#TBT to this from 2012 in honour of Michael Gove starring as an invasion-battling leader in Sky's new show The Wargame. If you don't know what or who this comic is about... just count yourself lucky and scroll on, no worries.
[Opening scene is WESTMINSTER, LONDON. Over Downing Street a huge ALIEN SPACECRAFT hovers, silent, still, filling the whole sky a la Independence Day]. 

[Cut to INSIDE 10 DOWNING STREET. The (then) prime Minister DAVID CAMERON is looking out of his office window at the ship.]

VOICE FROM OFF-SCENE, BEHIND CAMERON:
Prime Minister…

CAMERON [addressing the person behind him, still keeping his eyes fixed ahead in dread at the spaceship]:
Yes?

[We see the speaker is MICHAEL GOVE, then Education Secretary]:

GOVE:
Let me do it.

CAMERON:
For God's sake, Michael, you're the Education Secretary! You've never flown a fighter plane in your life!

GOVE:
But I know I could do it, David. I could fly a fighter plane into the big space- ship...

...and shoot all the aliens.

CAMERON:
But you have no military training!

GOVE:
David

I haven't told you this, but...

I used to be a journalist. For The Times.

[Cameron reacts, turning to look at Gove with awe and respect, as if only now truly seeing him for the first time]. 

GOVE:
I wrote two articles about planes, David.

I've got strong opinions about aliens.

I know I can do this job.

[Cut to a title card panel]:

AND SO:

[Then cut again to Cameron on the roof of Number 10, watching a Michael Gove pilot a fighter jet up towards the spacecraft, and then completely miss it, careering towards Earth, as Cameron buries his face in his hands].

[Ends]

Yes, fair dues: most people do not encounter hate-filled, calculating right wing psychopaths in their day to day lives, so it would not occur to them that anyone would behave that horrifically. That’s how hate-filled, calculating right wing psychopaths prosper.
"He sat in that chair an awful lot," says Lawson, pointing to my seat in his London flat-turned-office. The party organiser who masterfully engineered Starmer's rise had spent a couple of years courting Lawson, drawing out his political ideas over the dining table.
"It made sense to me that he said his project was Corbynism without Corbyn - let's get rid of the antisemitism, let's professionalise it, but the underlying facts of the 2008 crash, austerity, the composition of the electorate means that we've got to do something like Corbynism.
"Little did I know he was just an undercover, like the cops who join Greenpeace or CND. He was there to understand how the lett thinks, in order to replicate it in a way that he could win an election."election."
Q
=
So, he does not believe there was any genuine intellectual curiosity there? "No, it was a complete and utter - ironically - entryist job. It was the 'Morgan tendency' - to infiltrate a group of people, understand how they operate and bend it to your will," Lawson replies. "As soon as you've won it, you kick the ladder away, shut the door and start pouring boiling oil over the people who've just voted for you."
Does he think Starmer was in on the plan, or merely a passenger? "I think he was just thinking about Keir and what was good for Keir, and this was good for Keir."
Lawson today describes himself in no less scathing terms than a Corbynite on social media might use against him: "Neal Lawson, the most naive person in left-wing politics."
With Burnham, a leader he did back, now in No 10, for some on his wing of the party the question arises: has the most naive person in left-wing politics been duped again?

In fact, these are scenes we have not seen on British streets. Immigration needs to be deal with, I will be the first to say that and we are dealing with it. The boat crossings have been halved since six years ago, net migration is down massively.

There is IMO something absolutely spot on about the British ruling class not at all recognising that smashing up the state to sell it for scrap and cocaine might be a problem, until it started to somewhat impede their ability to wage a really serious war.
I've spent a few weeks asking people if Britain is prepared for war, among other doom scenarios. The short answer is no and the condensed reason for why that happened is that we spent the last forty years stripping off and selling the most resilient systems in the country for parts.

The Bible literally says that a woman can be created from a man’s rib, Janet.
Telegraph and Mail journalist Janet Murray on Facebook: Apparently the Church of England has ordained its first 'transgender woman' - following a 'gender transition'.
Now, I'm no biblical scholar. But I did go to a faith school, study compulsory RE until I was 16, and get an 'A' in Religious Studies (back when that was the top grade). So I'm scratching my head here.
Genesis says God created humankind "male and female". Where does the Bible say that men can become women? Sarah Jones is a man, not a woman.
