This is quite extraordinary. I don't think I have heard a more coherent, articulate and accurate deconstruction & demolition of Nigel Farage's ReformUK, Tory & Restore policy than this. In under 85 seconds! @rafaelbehr.bsky.social is on here folks and worth a follow.

Man in a gilet stood on platform 12 gives up on reading the display and asks ChatGPT out loud if he is on the right platform for his train. I don’t want to be dramatic about it but Eratosthenes figured out the circumference of the Earth using a stick and knowledge of a distant well.

I can only imagine the disappointment of getting so far then having to call it a day having been hospitalised 😕 But the focus has to be on getting better first, then plan for tackling the route next year (that and @philipwblood 's Xmas Extravaganza).

Broken record: Asylum seekers and immigrants with work/study visas are two totally different groups. Asylum seekers ask for refuge and are granted it (or not) on a humanitarian basis. Whether or not they make a positive economic contribution to the country is beside the point, although…

Jenrick’s been on quite the journey from a one nation, Remain-voting Tory, through to frothing Brexiter and on to demanding that Royal Marines murder people at sea for daring to seek refuge here. All to impress the country’s racist losers and maybe get a few more votes. Christ he’s repulsive.

Fair point re Burnham. Could well be an astute move. If dividing the vote on the far right is what comes out of the Nige vs Rupert scrapping, then the popcorn's on me.

Only a small minority of people are active, angry, violent racists. Quite a large majority of people are empathetic, concerned, and tolerant. But we have managed to organise our media/political environment so that only the angry racists are heard.

are Tesla owners aware they don’t have to tell the Facebook group everything

Tesla Model Y group • Join Frances Newton Griner • 1d • G
Just want to report I am 84 and boyfriend 89. We were on a long trip in my Tesla from Central Florida to Northern Indiana to see our families. Had a great time.
Tesla did a wonderful job. Sadly to say on the 12 day, and almost home, my friend lost his balance going up the curb at McDonalds and fell backwards onto the concrete. Severe head trauma and he passed away. So sad, but will try to only remember all of our happy times.@

So are they going to ask Boris Johnson why he said they didn't? And maybe ask him why he blocked the release of the Russia Report? Or why he gave the son of former KGB officer a life peerage? Or ask him why as Foreign Secretary he ditched his security detail and met said former KGB agent at a party?

This poisonous rhetoric is going to get someone killed soon. It plays to people's worst prejudices. At some point soon, the police or government need to get involved. People like Jenrick couldn't care less about what this can lead to. They are helping to radicalise people with this dark narrative.

Dear tv and radio producers. Thankyou for the invitation. But, no, I do not want to appear on your show to defend the idea that I am English, after 50 years of living and working here, because the increasingly feral right want to turn this into a "debate" and you cannot see how you're being played

Understand that Simon Andriesz had a 35 year career in UK financial services, rising to serve as Managing Director of BGC Group, whose CEO was Howard Lutnick. Andriesz was not just a low level, disgruntled employee. He ran BGC for Lutnick. His death, after coming forward, needs to be investigated.
