Looking forward to this on May 26th! Coincidence or fate that this day is Peter Cushing's birthday... And that we're doing a preview screening of our new film for @hammerfilms.bsky.social? You decide. Hope to see some of you there.

Carl Giles was a fascinating man. A few months after this he was with the Coldstream Guards when they liberated Bergen-Belsen. The German camp commander got excited and kept banging on about how much of a fan of Giles war cartoons he was. Kept asking for a signed drawing. /1

"Nobody over the last quarter of a century has done more to defeat the genuine, intolerant, abhorrent, extreme, far-right than me," says Nigel Farage, as he announces plans for the mass deportation of hundreds of thousands of people and a visa ban on anyone coming from six Muslim-majority countries

Disgusting. But you don't have to be an economic scholar to see how much the country has fallen. It's got NOTHING to do with immigration, it's everything to do with brexit and the right wing dystopia that's being crafted.

"If you don't know this is a Lovercraftian film, I bet you are really confused by it" is my favourite review so far on my short #TheBirdwatcherFilm. A few furious reviews about it this year haha. I'm not giving all the answers I'm afraid. Engage brain, go to warp speed. But it is a brexit film...

Anemone & Rose of Nevada are two films I'm really excited to watch. Around the edges of this are a lot of other films I've really got no interest in. There's this distinct feeling amongst many of them that the celebrity aspect is bigger than the actual filmmaking... and that ain't it, for me.

What do you get when you mix a volatile corporate press, operating in the name of the establishment, and a government that tries to copy the policies of an already volatile right wing party... See below. Starmer has thrown as much petrol at this fire as Farage.

RYAN MACKFALL @ryancrashburn.bsky.social · 14/08/2025

Brexit wasn't enough. The people who believed it would be good, and have since been shown otherwise, want one more go at looking like tools. Farage and reform will oblige. Then this country can fill its full potential as being one of the most miserable places on the planet.

Every day this Summer has been a record of how Nigel Farage already runs the country. An endless cycle of hate & racism. One day boat arrivals, the next releasing ethnicity data for crimes, so we can know whether to riot if they’re brown or shrug if they’re white. Back to the 70s🤦‍♀️ #r4today

Instagram keeps taking down this post from Massive Attack. They keep posting it. I guess it what we should expect from meta. Never the less, 3D remains one of those people continuing to speak out in the current genocide against Palestinians.

Bastions of free speech ask to remove free speech. Call these people what they are - fascists. Peaceful protest banned in order to stop violent protest? Doesn't sound very democratic does it? Labour and courting these idiots.

Starmer goes on and on about working people but he's really in it for the neoliberals. His actions show us everything we need to know about the man. A regret I'll always have is voting for him as labour leader. I'm glad I stopped my membership. What a waste of a good chance.

This man could write a book on how to absolute fuck up the best chance in a long time to make a meaningful and positive change to a country (that so badly needs it). A fool, more concerned with pandering to right wingers than the people who ACTUALLY voted him in. Furious and over it. Disgusted.

I think one of the truly sad tragedies if this initial AI era are those who have bought into "prompt writing" as a marketable skill, like that won't be the very next thing AI creators shore up. I hate to be the guy tapping the sign again, but you are not USING AI, you are TRAINING it to replace you.

The U.K. fishing industry - weaponised & then betrayed & then abandoned, by Johnson, Farage & the rest of them - is better off under Starmer’s deal than it was under Johnson’s. That’s not an opinion. It’s counting. Anyone claiming otherwise is a liar.
