Putin says it’s not about territory, it’s about 'the people'. If that was true, why hasn't he stopped the war?

1/ In the coverage of far-right activist Danny Tommo's detention after slashing a migrant dinghy in the Channel, an important point seems to have been widely overlooked: he allegedly committed another crime *after* being arrested, which could result in 12 years in jail. ⬇️

Okay so I've built a new Atlas, this time it lets you explore the conversations on Bluesky over the past 7 days graphically. It should update every ~6 hours and help you navigate the information environment that exists on here. I've learned a LOT about what people do here today... atlas.jazco.dev

This is an indication of the kind of political consensus that can be built if Labour makes the right case for breaking its red lines: Uniting right wing concerns about defence & patriotism, left-wing demands for investment & independence from the US, and widely-shared commitments to Ukraine.

I've never hated the Tories more in my life than I do now. Their behaviour over Musk's smears has been utterly contemptible. A mixture of unapologetic bigots and mealy mouthed cowards. The only reason not to wish for their destruction was that they were less bad than Reform but apparently not.
