So funny and theologically ’on the money’. Eschatological Comedy - who knew? 😂
Spain’s MEP Irene Montero speaking to reporters
Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression — Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either
When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars — they hide behind women’s rights to justify them
Straight out of the Trump playbook. Farage is a wannabe Donnie Orange.
● Typical cost of a Business Class flight to Maldives is £3,100 - £3,200+ return
● 2 of those minimum so £6,400+
● Accommodation minimum of £250-£350 per night. Farage demands finer things in life though so can exceed £1,000
● Gross household average salary Gorton & Denton £653 per week
Sympathy from across the pond for all non-MAGA US folk. We too once had a clown in charge.
Absolutely love this track. For me, the best TH track amongst many fabulous recordings. Great video performance - DB is such a quirky and creative artist.
Turns out there’s an economic cost to everyone hating us.
So, as predicted, the IPP action plan will fail and this cruel sentence’s injustices will continue. Shameful.
"Crucial prison security systems are being left unrepaired for months if not years allowing illicit drugs to flood into jails..."

“It undermines their credibility to go to other countries and complain about arbitrary detention when they are arbitrarily detaining these people.”
Dr Muin Boase:
Takes complaint of the British gov’s detention of IPPs to the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention #IPPScandal
Farage was wrong about Brexit 🚨
Starmer: “As far as Nigel Farage is concerned, let us remind ourselves that he said if we left the EU it would be £350 million a week for the NHS - that didn’t happen."

Donald Trump has always claimed he won Georgia in the 2020 election - which he lost.
The FBI has now seized the ballots, and commissioner Mo Ivory says she has "no confidence" they won't be tampered with so Trump finally gets the result he wants

Ground rent cap is good news (though peppercorn would be better straight away). Also welcome is promised abolition of new leasehold properties. Better still would be the outright abolition of leasehold altogether, a feudal anachronism virtually unique to England and Wales.
A country of small roads, limited parking and congestion charges. This makes no sense.🤷♂️

soft power update
An excellent, if disturbing, article on the moral and political corruption of a powerful element of US Christianity.

The end of history ended at the start
"Prisons are unlikely to improve until they are properly staffed and those in custody have decent time out of their cells every day with purposeful activity..."
A former governor writes to the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/jan/19/the-inside-track-on-curbing-uk-prison-violence
Astonishing that, almost 14 years on from this failed judicial experiment being abolished, so many people are still greatly impacted by this cruel sentence. History will judge & future generations will be shocked at the callous indifference towards the IPP issue shown by many in authority.
Big backtrack from Trump tonight

‘Frankly Trump makes my flesh creep and my stomach turn. Where are his advisors? Where is his nurse? Where is his sense of shame?’ Great quote 😂
“until we build prisons around rehabilitation rather than simply containment…fund education & meaningful activity…staff prisons with properly trained officers who can actually see the people they’re responsible for – we are choosing to perpetuate…the violence and recidivism we claim to oppose”.
