For the first time, the British government has acknowledged that Russia interfered in the 2016 Brexit referendum. So who did BBC Newsnight invite on to discuss what happened? Sergei Markov, Putin’s former spokesman. Par for the course, says Nerve co-founder @carolecadwalla.bsky.social 1/

Oh! Are you sure?! I got the impression from social media that asylum seekers were rich and white while illegal immigrants were not 😐

Something strangely fitting about Elliot Anderson, the player Newcastle were forced to sell to comply with financial fair play rules getting Man of the Match for Manchester City whose modern legacy is built entirely on cheating the financial rules!

Well if you think this Alice Cooper person is so awesome… then perhaps you’d be interested to know their memoir is due in a couple of days! (If you weren’t already aware and if you don’t dislike memoirs)

Good. Now arrest those who were with him for conspiracy, and then arrest those who tried to set fire to a hotel for arson. And then proscribe the group as a terrorist organisation. Which is what you are if you use violence for political ends. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

NEW: Far-right activists are mobilising in Basingstoke following the arrest of Daniel Thomas, aka Danny Tommo. Thomas was arrested after a video appeared to show him slashing a dinghy in the Channel while an emergency responder was still on board. Here’s what we know. 🧵

I checked the facts if the case. Actually he’s not old enough to be a terrorist and he wasn’t carrying the mandatory terrorism sign calling for an end to genocide. So this case doesn’t meet the threshold for terrorism 😐

It’s disappointing when other people don’t listen to @impq.bsky.social. On occasion “what a swizz, eh listeners“ just sums the moment up but everyone else just stares back blankly 🤷‍♀️

In 1994 when they were taking off but by no means massive or wielding any influence within the music industry, Green Day took gay punk band Pansy Division on tour with them. People were very vocally homophobic back then (in England, section 28 was still very much in force - not repealed until 2003!)

Money is distilled power! Allowing rich people to leverage their financial power into political power the value of an individual vote diminishes! Perhaps it’s time to restrict political donations to UK residents with all donations declared and capped at a reasonable value!

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Off duty cops were part of the "protest" (thuggery). The cops knew in advance that it was happening and ignored it.

The “wake-up call for the government” should be that fascists invaded Dover and Portsmouth without consequence. And that maybe security services should be paying more attention to far-right terrorist groups instead of pensioners with objections to genocide!

If it had been pensioners for extinction rebellion there would have been arrests and report of police brutality. Fascists take over the port in dover and everything is “peaceful”.

(Incredibly reductive take): Bruce Campbell (specifically in The Evil Dead 2) was Jim Carey before Jim Carey. It will always feel grossly unfair to me that Campbell didn’t go on to reach Carey levels of fame and fortune.

I loved the way Stranger Things captured the vibe and peril of D&D. I loved the gravity and brutality of a fantasy setting in GoT. I was so disappointed by bubblegum throwaway nature of the recent D&D movie.

Saw it in the cinema when it came out. It’s ”great”. Think I was too young at the time of the war to understand how heartbreaking it all was. The relationships that have persisted are quite heartwarming. Again I would recommend giving Chris Dale’s book a read for more depth to their experience.
