For the record:
The way the Right is talking about Turkish barbers is going to lead to attacks on those shops.
There is going to be a lot of broken glass. (This is just the modern version.)

@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk What a great caller Raymond is.
I haven’t laughed and agreed so heartily with a caller since well,….whenever!
Also makes a change to encounter someone over 75 who isn’t a Boris / Farage fanboy/girl.
Radio gold James. 😂👏🏻
After today’s reset of UK-EU relations I thought I’d compile a list of the main Brexit Benefits we are now losing. Here is that list in full:
Er, that it.

Even Nigel Farage and Liz Truss have now distanced themselves from Trump calling Zelensky a Dictator, just in case anyone still wasn’t sure what a stupid thing it was to say
Nothing new here just BBC being BBC
So the well-funded infrastructure is there for right wing causes, whether they are anti-regulation or more ideological/white evangelical such as campaigns against abortion and LGBTQ rights.
So yeah, climate change denial and anti-minority anti-women politics go together.
4/end
Tomorrow the High Court is ruling on Thames Water's bailout plan.
They expect you to pay for their failures. And they're appealing to the Competition and Markets Authority because a 35% bill increase isn't enough.
❌ No bailout
✅ Public ownership now

History is so interesting at times, Especially when you are looking for the root cause of many evils.

Thames Water credit rating slashed to negative, administration looms.
£23bn assets in urgent need of repair.
Uses obsolete technology.
£15bn+ debt, money borrowed to pay dividends, no new reservoir since 1989, dumps sewage in rivers.
Must be no public bailout
