“Reeves has been ratcheting up the rhetoric on closer EU relations which she described as the “biggest prize” in trade”
If only we’d acknowledged this BEFORE we threw it away in a fit of arrogant prejudice. Getting back in the room is far harder than flouncing off

The REAL Replacement Theory:
Billionaires are using AI and Robotics to Replace the Human Race while keeping us fighting among ourselves over tiktok and meta posts that don't mean anything.
Just as Putin’s 3 day ‘Special Military Operation’ has changed the world and crippled Russia is anyone else seeing a mirror image with Trump’s attack on Iran. The rest of the world is seriously affected by these megalomaniacs.

Eleven years since you crossed the black sands. I wish I could say that the world is better than you left it (although it will always be better for having had you in it) but at least there is a new Young Sam to help carry on the Pratchett name and ethos. Love you always ❤️
When BlueSky changes ownership, all I ask for is that I can still get a chronological feed as a default.
It no longer exists on Facebook, and Twitter makes it difficult.
I follow people because I want to see their posts when they post them.

So finally in the 21st century after a debate of more than 25 years we decided to abolish feudalism. Or at least the most visible part of it. 👇

It's no longer OK for you to sit in the house of Lords because your dad did.
But if your mate put you there?
That's fine.
Neither of these really feel like democracy to me.
I seriously think Trump knows he's dying – and he's trying to get through some crazy, tyrannical bucket list before he goes! Bombings!💥 Murders!💥 Persecutions!💥 Unprecedented Corruption💥 ... God knows what or who'll be the next to suffer because of it.

Thanks to @john-cooper-mp.bsky.social for referencing our open letter to the PM.
200+ experts warned the UK's deal with Trump to funnel billions to big pharma is catastrophic for NHS patients.

We are facing an energy crisis. Britain is the worst exposed in Europe with only 2 days gas supply stored. If only we had our own gas to exploit. Or our own oil. Or our own coal.... Blame @Ed Miliband (Allison Pearson on X)
If only we had clean, renewable energy and were not beholden to a dirty, expensive, dangerous commodity that pollutes our environment and is the source of most of our geopolitical woes.
Does she mean she wants nationalised industries?????? I think not….
You can’t control what life throws at you, but
you can control who you become in response.

‘We must get back to the party’s roots before it is too late. That means embracing difference, rejecting division – and fighting for opportunities for all’

I’m autistic. Not broken.
Not a problem. Not something
to fix. Just a different way of
experiencing the world. And
different is not wrong. 🧩💙

Dear Labour,
I toyed with the idea of rejoining you but if I had, Mahmood's immigration reform and lies would have led me to slam the door again.
Good job I didn't rejoin.
Kindness exponentially grows.
Because when you’re nice to
someone, they’re nice to others,
and before you know it, you
have a whole chain reaction. 😊
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
From recollection of an ATP Politics You Tube it had been taking part in a joint Iranian/Chinese/Russian exercise
Isabel Oakeshott: anti-migration commentator, economic migrant to Dubai, possible future evacuee of the very British state she insists is broken.
Isn’t it funny how mobility becomes acceptable when it’s your own?
This IPSO adjudication against the Telegraph is quite something
Confirms their story titled: ‘We earn £345k, but soaring private school fees mean we can’t go on five holidays’ was completely fabricated, with the family involved non-existent and stock pictures used

'The relationship is obviously not what it was'. First true thing I've ever heard him say.
