If you missed @mrjamesob.bsky.social and I discussing the increasing number of young people turning to AI chatbots as therapists you can listen back here - share-lbc.globalplayer.com/catchup/lbc/...
Wish I’d known the research I just read about 90% of AI lying to and blackmailing users in tests 😱
My prediction - Trump will get bored of the war in Iran. He’ll make up a fake claimed ‘victory’ and leave the Iranian people with the son of the last ayatollah (because he never actually cared about them), leaving the world the exact same as it was before but a bit sh*tter.
As part of LBC's Online Safety Day, @natashadevon.bsky.social visited students at the Global Academy to hear about their experiences online:
Good I think! James is basically my yoda so I was in skywalker mode 😂
Dude follows me…. Tells you everything you need to know about his mindset.
I’ll be chatting to @mrjamesob.bsky.social at 12.30 on @lbc.co.uk about some conversations I’ve been having with young people about their relationships with AI chatbots. In the meantime, here’s a piece I wrote about it for LBC Views - www.lbc.co.uk/article/teac...
Literally everything that’s wrong with modern politics, right here ⬇️
Once upon a time he was their ‘monster of delusion’…
Now we’re back here again and the right‑wing press are on his side.
These papers are a disgrace.
Musk, worth $829 billion, owns X.
Bezos, worth $234 billion, owns The Washington Post & Twitch.
Zuckerberg, worth $231 billion, owns Facebook, Instagram & WhatsApp.
And now Larry Ellison, worth $202 billion, is about to control CNN, CBS, TikTok & HBO.
Yes, this is oligarchy.
The Epstein story is by no means over for Trump and the White House. Mine for @natashadevon.bsky.social's programme last night on @lbc.co.uk

“Farage’s career has been forged by courting those who are openly hostile to anyone who isn’t white and British.”
Absolute facts! 💯 @natashadevon.bsky.social
Only 22% of the population actually want this according to polling. The right wing media are desperately trying to manufacture consent.
There is nothing more threatening to the right wing than a cis trans inclusive feminist woman. They don’t know how to handle it at all.

- Do you trust Starmer to make the right calls on Iran?
- Shabana Mahmood asylum reforms: are Labour still dancing to the hard right’s tune?
- Five years after Sarah Everard’s murder are things better or worse for women’s safety?
Those saying ‘has Farage even considered war with Iran will result in more asylum seekers arriving by small boat?’. Of course he has. He doesn’t really want to stop the boats. He needs them for his grievance politics and to persuade the population to support policies which will harm them.
Haha!
You’ve got quite a few hits on this one!
Farage to be blocked from No 10 by left-wing tactical voting, poll shows. The I paper
One does not have to be ‘left wing’ to recognise what a disaster Farage would be for this country.
Remember back when presidents spoke in sentences? *sighs whistfully*
Former Chief Medical Officer calls out Streeting’s highly politicised ‘trial’ of puberty blockers. Meanwhile @goodlawproject.org have uncovered a spike in trans youth ending their own lives because they can’t access appropriate care. This is a national scandal.
"That’s the thing about normal people: we talk to each other, depend on one another, forge bonds, fall in love and make babies with people from different cultures to our own. The forced deportation half Reform voters support would cause absolute devastation, tearing apart families and communities."
Wrote a thing about why Reform have mischaracterised the voting public (thanks to @jamesgraham.theliberati.net whose Substack on ‘family voting’ I have included) - tashthinks.substack.com/p/reform-don...
Found it! Thank you @byrdywyrdy.bsky.social
Yes it was thank you so much x
I saw a brilliant Substack on here a few days ago which broke down why claims of ‘family voting’ in Gorton and Denton are gubbins but I forgot to save it and can’t remember who it’s by and now I can’t find it. Can anyone help?
GB News has lost £131.5m to date Cumulative losses in £
Keep not watching GB News guys... it's lost £131.5m to date but I'm sure it can do a lot worse than that.
BREAKING: A "Shahed-like drone" which targeted an RAF base in Cyprus was not launched from Iran, says a Ministry of defence spokesperson
‘I shed no tears for the ayatollah and yes I would like fries with that please’.
