Haven't seen Richard E Grant this maniacally happy since the Spice Girls movie.

About as bright as an eclipse, this lot. The sad truth is that there was no confusion. They say people who didn't look like them and targeted them based off nothing but their skin colour.

I can only imagine the mess Nolan's made of his studio this morning. Probably tugged himself into oblivion at the thought of another scrap on air re Drumcree.

Blame the Ardoyne upbringing, but Fleadh's one of those that just gives me childhood PTSD. Like Berghaus. Or provident.

Since The Spectator have today posted an article, in the wake of the Berlin attack, about the threat “Islamists” hold against a nation of “freedom-lovers”, I thought I’d look back over the year to see just how freedom-loving The Spectator actually are towards queer people and Pride…

Whilst in Glasgow this weekend, a Reform councillor gave a speech to a group of men wearing images of a noose and gallows with text implying they were going to start lynching parties. To zero concerns from the centre. Or anyone else, except us.

The people who insist they're fighting the establishment sometimes occupy its most influential spaces. Not because they infiltrated them but because the nature of power changed while everyone was still looking for oak-panelled rooms and pinstripe suits. open.substack.com/pub/aaronkel...

"I'm not the establishment! I'm not the establishment!", i continue to scream as I slowly shrink and turn into a corn cob.
Nigel Farage has built a career out of making people believe he’s standing outside the gates of power, banging on the doors and demanding to be let in.

Incredible contribution from Robin Livingstone calling out how the Nolan show amplifies dangerous rhetoric that can seriously influence violence.

I understand the urge to platform certain moonbeams who seem like they won a collect ten packets of crisps and become an MLA competition to highlight their stupidity, but there comes a time where you have to reckon with amplifying dangerous rhetoric that can seriously influence violence.

Complaining about a lack of integration from foreign communities in Northern Ireland is funny given that one of the very few things that unites most of the near two million of us here is that we actively don't integrate.

I see the usual cabal of racist grifters have lifted their knuckles off the ground and decided to hijack the heinous attack in north Belfast seeing as there's a person of colour involved. It's weird I didn't see a modicum of this outrage after Natalie McNally was murdered.

BBC inflates a few cases into a trend while LGBTQIA+ asylum claims are rare and often refused. It shifts focus away from exploitation by dodgy advisers and instead fuels stigma, making an already hostile system even harder for people genuinely seeking safety. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Rural Community Network’s Policy & Research Manager will be speaking at an OECD CFE workshop on Rural Communication today at 2pm (UK time). The session will explore how governments can better engage with rural communities - and how messages are received and understood. www.oecd.org/en/events/20...

Please remember that every good take and well-executed argument you've seen from Tucker Carlson on Israel is an already-established leftwing position. Don't be "surprised to be agreeing with Tucker Carlson!", he's merely agreeing with us.

I'm probably at the point now where even if we win the Champions League (don't laugh), I'd still get rid. None of the players have any idea what they're doing or what system we're actually playing. But for Mamardashvili, this would be an embarrassing scoreline.

The real reason JK Rowling is comfortable with her choice is that she shares far more than a "single opinion" with Donald Trump. A persistent myth that needs to be pushed back against is that Rowling was ever the character she pretended to be on Twitter. She's a conservative activist. Always was.
Well, James, we had to choose between between male rapists being locked up with women and the eradication of women's single-sex spaces, even down to homeless shelters and rape crisis centres, and knowing we share a single opinion with Donald Trump. I'm comfortable with my choice.

I understand the urge to engage with a certain permanently online convicted stalker and kidnapper when he posts something designed to antagonise. But his opinions on football - or anything for that matter - hold zero weight. You're not owning him in the QTs, you're putting money in his pocket.

Crazy idea, I know, but maybe we could reduce our dependence on data centres AND meat consumption? (Like, this argument used in support of AI, is stupid whataboutism, but on its own makes a good point about the destructive nature of the beef industry).

Stumbled across a clip of Robert Jenrick chasing Tube fare dodgers; comparing it and public drug use to "weird Turkish barbershops." Apparently, the front line of British law and order is people not tapping in and foreign small businesses with warm towels.

Happy to hear that no one lost their life in the chaos in Liverpool; a miracle. Hoping now that everyone who was hurt goes on to make a full recovery. Those who chose to share distressing videos, spread rumours, or try to twist the tragedy for their own narrow agenda, give your heads a wobble.

I love how they’re trying to look like Stern Men Of Destiny but just look like two toddlers at a wedding told they can’t slide across the floor until after the bride & groom have their first dance.

Seeing Labour voter's with buyer's remorse makes me think about how many Labour fanboys got really angry at me for this video, but if they'd actually listened to what I said instead of attacking who I am they'd look much less stupid and malicious than they do now. youtu.be/svNs2x9pgdA

The league trophy may not yet be draped in red ribbons, but Liverpool’s grip on it grows tighter with each passing game. The question now's no longer if we'll be crowned champions, but when.
