Do you know, I feel sorry for Ed Sheeran, he didn’t want to be in this position he has been consistent in his approach for years, that he “doesn’t mix politics and performance”. Unfortunately being a public figure this approach is frankly a luxury that is no longer available to him.

We're being told that if we sacrifice the rights of some people, then the rest of us get to keep our rights. We all know that's some BS.

The chief Rabbi is pointing a finger at the wrong people. The cause of anti-Jewish hate is the Israeli Gov, the people endangering Jews are the Israeli gov. You cannot blame 3rd parties responding to Israeli action as the people causing the problem, the problem stems from Israeli action.

It had a 20mb hard disk, which was just enough space to save a couple of images from gem paint and a few word processing documents. The printer was so big it barely fit on the desk.

Exactly how many laws did the Dover protest break (or how many parts of the same law) Were the Police notified six days in advance? Did they comply with police restrictions? Was the area identified as a mask free zone? Were the protesters obstructing a transport hub?

You know I understand why masked incels are worried about all these apparent criminals and rapists arriving on small boats, they are legitimately worried about them taking all the criminal and rapist jobs.

Seems the difference between ‘protestors’ and ‘terrorists’ is that protestors wear balaclavas while terrorists hold placards.

One day I will start the thread what’s the worst podcast youve ever worked on. Thanks @dhanendran.co.uk for triggering this thought. I have a great list, and for those concerned colleagues none of the ones I work on now are even close to making the list.

Farage’s victory in Clacton is the lowest vote share by a winning candidate in any by-election where the other major parties have stood down since 1948 (where opposition parties endorsed an independent).

People say we can't compare this to the Third Reich because of the atrocities but we only found out about the atrocities after the fact when it was all said and done and we're not done with this yet so I am sure the worst stomach churning shit has yet to be revealed.

I have watched almost none of this World Cup, because I don’t believe you can separate the game from the people that profit from it, And I know people don’t like that, because” it’s not about politics” except that it is, it always is. But more than that I really find it hard to support England.

Sorry the ‘ceasefire’ is over? What ceasefire, there have been precisely 0 days since Feb 28th where USA and Isreal haven’t exchanged fire with Iran & Hezbollah don’t believe me just look it up, I just did to check. 0 days. So quite a ceasefire that.

So if the government wanted some constitutional mischief it could appoint Farage to the Chiltern Hundreds or Manor of Northstead and then not release him in time making him ineligible to run as an mp (almost certainly a terrible constitutional and legal idea) 1/2

Either masterful trolling or an astonishing coincidence for the French to arrange for a humiliating instrument of surrender to be signed at Versailles.

It'd be depressing at the best of times, but there is something profoundly inane about it when it comes from a prime minister who can't even drag himself off a social media site used to spread non-consensual porn and coordinate race riots.

FIFA is an inherently corrupt organisation, that is happy to cosy up to fascists, racists, & murderous authoritarians, whilst taking all the money and claiming football brings people together. This World Cup like the last couple is a criminal enterprise, shame on more people for not speaking up.

When Trump says ‘ceasefire’ I’m not sure he knows what it means, because both sides are still exchanging fire, much like the Gaza ceasefire! does he just mean that he’s lost interest and pretended that he won? Or is it that you can’t have a ceasefire with Isreal because Bibi is a crazed war criminal

So the uk grid is regularly producing less than 10% (often < 5%) of its electrical power from gas, however the gas price is still driving electricity costs? This is mad we need to update our pricing model to reflect the avg price of generation not the most expensive.

Wow I bet Trump is glad now he didn’t flounce out of NATO like he threatened to over Greenland so now he can threaten to flounce out of NATO if we don’t help him re-open the straight of Hormuz (help who’s he doesn’t actually need because the US and Israel have already won. Or something).

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

Remind me again about how expensive it will be to quickly transition away from fossil fuels in the next 10 years. The UK needs to sort out its electrical generation supply chain fast gas fired power stations have to go completely, and it needs to start 10 years ago.

They know what they say is untrue, they do not care it is untrue. The media know that what they repeat is untrue, they do not care it is untrue. Their supporters know what they are told is untrue, they do not care it is untrue. Telling the truth is not enough, unless people care about the truth.

French sports minister "I am one who believes in keeping sport separate [from politics]. The World Cup is an extremely important moment for those who love sport." Absolute bullshit, it is entangled with politics or else they wouldn’t have given Trump a made up prize.

Europe should threaten to boycott the World Cup it is about the best negotiating card we have. Problem is that they won’t because the sporting bodies don’t see themselves as political (even though that is just not true, see FIFA peace prize ….)

A US court has already ruled that Trump WAS trying to interfere with the 2020 election result. So hard to prove that the BBC saying that, albeit with a crude edit would be defamation. Especially since they were all words that actually came out of his mouth in the order they came out.

Absolutely amazing chart from @peterkellner.bsky.social's piece in @thenewworldmag.bsky.social today: www.thenewworld.co.uk/peter-kellne...
A flow chart shows 17.4 million leave voters in 2016, vs 16.1m remain. In 2025, 5 million of those people have died, and 3 million new voters have come of age.

The result (plus some people changing their mind) is 19.8 million voters now back rejoin, versus just 11.7 million wanting to stay out.

In other cheery news another British PM thinks you can pander to the far-right by destroying whichever institution is now supposedly ‘the problem’ instead of realising they’ll just move on to the next one once you do this and you’ll win exactly 0 political capital.
