I thought this was a joke, but "Ms Badenoch has ranked MPs based on how well they are performing on X" is an actual quote from this article.

hey #bbclaurak - we hear your gotcha questions the FIRST time you ask them - no need to use 50% of an interview asking the same question from different angles when you know you wil not get an answer. Flagship journalism at play.
The thought that Starmer has broken a China saucer while the angry bull smashes up the whole shop is risible.
@bbclaurak.bsky.social stating Trumps case as if he were a rational operator.
Hitting desalination plants is so bad. Not just evil but strategically incomprehensible. Without desalination 75% of the entire population of the Middle East will be refugees. Israel and Kuwait depend on desalination for 90% of their water and other Middle East states arenβt far behind.

Rik Mayall, the sexy bastard
Happy birthday to this funny, handsome, clever, wonderful, genius man. Watching you on telly when I was younger just made me fall completely in love with comedy and I would have given anything to be up there with you!
The best. We miss you (P)Rik.
Is it just me or is there something utterly grotesque about the British right wing press relishing this war....as though this is all just a huge compter game where the men, woman and child civilians who are blown into several pieces are of only periphery consequence?

Such a great debut and sadly the only only album by the classic lineup. Goth's defining album, I loved it at the time and it still sounds fantastic now. Pretty much nailed on for my top 5.

Happy birthday to Betty Boo. Here's a reminder of the time she rapped with Public Enemy in the McDonalds at Shepherd's Bush back in 1987 (look out for the unimpressed manager!)
Billionaire brothers who backed Tories give Reform Β£100k Oliver Wright Extracts Britain's second-richest family have begun giving money to Reform UK after years of supporting the Conservatives. A company linked to the property tycoons David and Simon Reuben donated Β£100,000 to Nigel Farage's party the first time the brothers have given to any party other than the Tories. Reform has also received Β£3 million from Christopher Harborne, 63, an entrepreneur who now lives in Thai-land, adding to the ty million he gave in August. At the time, that was the biggest single donation to a UK political party by a living donor. In the last quarter of last year, Reform received more than Β£5.4 million in do-nations, the Conservatives were given Β£2.4 million and Labour received Β£1.9 million. The Reuben brothers - David, 87, and Simon, 84, who own property including Millbank Tower and Admiralty Arch in London β have donated almost El million to the Conservative Party since 2008. They also supported Boris Johnson after he left No 10, giving him office space worth Β£85,000. Their family wealth was put at Β£26.87 billion in The Sunday Times Rich List last year. Reform UK has its headquarters in Millbank Tower, but it is not known whether the brothers donation linked to reduced rent payments. Other Reform donors include David John Grainger, the co-founder of a biotech firm, and Gary Dutton, a double glazing entrepreneur, who both gave the party Β£250,000. Reform also received Β£100,000 from Isabel Goldsmith, sister of the former Tory minister Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park. Her father, Sir James Gold-smith, was seen as the godfather of British Euroscepticism. For the second quarter in a row Lord Bamford, the chairman of JCB, gave Β£200,000 each to the Conservatives and Reform. At the time of his first do-nation, the company said he was "sup-portive of pro-business political parties that create the conditions for these businesses to grow and prosper".
More billionaire cash bankrolling Reform.
JCBβs chairman, Bamford, said he was βsupportive of pro-business political parties that create conditions for these businesses to grow and prosper."
Reform wants to repeal the Equality Act.
Prosperity for them means loss of rights and pay for us.
