👏😂 People want to join the EU. Nobody wants to join China or US. Well played Belgian PM Bart De Wever.

I wonder if any of the six federal prosecutors from Minnesota who’ve resigned so far this week felt differently.

This may well be the most pathetic and saddest thing I've seen since Arthur 2: On the Rocks.

Tomorrow Thames Water is back in court @windrushwasp.bsky.social will appeal against the £3 billion bailout at our expense We will demand a *Thames Water Emergency Board* to represent households, workers and anti sewage groups TAKE BACK THAMES WATER tribunemag.co.uk/2025/03/end-...

End the Privatised Water Scam
Thames Water, teetering on the brink of bankruptcy, is the poster child for failed privatisation. Labour's refusal to even consider public ownership for this vital utility puts ideology above reason.

It’s insane to think that the Trump administration was more welcoming this week to the Tate brothers than to the President of Ukraine.

Remember when the baddies on a Bond film were billionaires with agendas to destroy the world order. Fast forward to 2025 and it seems like it could be a reality. Although things seem bleak I really do hope that good & decency will prevail for my children and their friends!

I realise it's no reason to dislike a whole franchise, but I can't get beyond Harrison Butker's views on women. Go Eagles.

But heaven forbid Gary Lineker posts "we should be compassionate to refugees". The entire press comes crashing down on him, because apparently that's an outrageously political statement. WTAF is going on?

Trump fired 400 FAA senior officials, the TSA head & 3k air traffic controllers. Now there’s been a fatal accident. He was supposed to be updating the public but instead gave an incoherent, shameless rambling speech blaming DEI hires and politicised a tragedy. He truly is a despicable waste of piss

We’re in a new Gilded Age - which sounds great, but the Robber Barons are back. And this time, they’re more selfish than ever, as Prof Tobias Jung, St Andrews University, writes: theconversation.com/andrew-carne...
theconversation.com
Andrew Carnegie and the 19th-century ‘robber barons’ have lessons for today’s oligarchs about the responsibilities of wealth
The 19th-century industrialists were called ‘robber barons’ – but they did more to improve society than many of today’s super-rich.

NEW: I've just been passed this excellent article from the Papua New Guinea Courier's London correspondent.
To England, where five months after the last general election two and a half million adults
(sic) have signed a petition calling for another one. Succesfully. It will be held in four years
and seven months’ time.
The campaign began because Labour didn’t restore prosperity in their first twenty weeks.
Rumours that the petition was a ruse by an autograph hunter who specialises in simpleton
signatures were not laid to rest when Reform UK threw its collective intellectual weight
behind it.
Labour only have themselves to blame. By annihilating the Tories at the ballot box, they
killed the goose that laid the golden tractor porn eggs. Without Randox, or Chris Pincher, or
shell PPE companies, or Partygate, or a vision, all they seem to offer are tax rises and warm
words about Blackrock. Ideologically, this leaves them more exposed than Peter Bone
talking to a junior staffer.
Enter stage far-right, goosestepping, Reform UK and their cartoon Tory clones who hawk
uncontested narratives about imaginary threats posed by refugees, experts and – er – trans
people. The near and present dangers of climate catastrophe are meanwhile rejected.
Never, they say, let the truth get in the way of a good story. In a world where mothballed
Thunderbirds extra Richard Tice can become a political figure, it seems that voters are
unwilling to let it get in the way of a crap one too.
Insurance giant AXA has just published data which say that Tice’s constituency is the
second most exposed to global warming in the UK. It’s a catchy stat, but not so catchy as
Tice’s mantra that ‘Net Zero equals Net Stupid’. Perhaps the 4000 householders in Boston
and Skegness who are at risk of submersion will chant this next time they’re baling turd-filled
floodwater from their living rooms.

Apologies, the alt text box has run out of space. Pls DM me if you were reading this way and I'll forward the rest!

How did they know? The parents of Milly Dowler, the murdered schoolgirl, recount their heartbreak as reporters seemed to know exactly when and where they were searching for their missing daughter.This scandal must not be forgotten. Justice delayed is justice denied. #MillyDowler #PhoneHackingScandal
