GB News’s Trump interview was a hot mess, but Ofcom doesn’t want to investigate. That means one thing: Ofcom is BROKEN. I just signed this open letter calling on the Government to do whatever it takes to fix it. Will you add your name? act.38degrees.org.uk/act/Ofcom-is...
If you come for my constituents by making money from misleading them about tax and get them into financial trouble as a result, you better know Samuel Leeds I am coming for you …

The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers.

What?
Blair has advocated supporting Trump?
Blair is a pariah!
That he was ever a Labour PM is now a huge embarrassment to Labour.
Yvette is right
Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined.
Over half goes to private defense contractors.
This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of — on steroids.
"Trying to compete with Reform not only feels inauthentic... but a betrayal of what Labour is supposed to represent. We must address the concerns and fears of voters, not play on them."

Walthamstow as schools break up for weekend am asking you to help me send powerful message those who want to cause harm to our young people by spreading fear will not win here. If you have seen or heard anything you want police to know in confidence get in touch.Together we can protect their future.
Maybe it’s you that’s wrong, Wes.
Maybe you’re just not appealing to anyone much.
You’re not convincing Reform voters but, in pandering to them, you’re pissing everyone else off.
Progressives have had a decade of being scorned and ignored. Don’t criticise us for minding and doing something about it.

Thank god. A great win for Hannah Spencer and the Greens, for #GortonAndDenton and for progressive voters. Made even greater by the huge Reform sulk. And the fact that the hateful Goodwin got whooped.
Now Labour, look to your left because you will not win from the right. We’re sick of that failure.
GOOD FOR AOC ❤️💙❤️

Wank stain.
Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...
Not sure why Reform announcing they’ll scrap the Equality Act 2010 hasn’t provoked widespread alarm.
They want to torch our human rights framework AND repeal our right to protection from discrimination.
A smile and a shrug on BBC News.
What the hell?
FFS, media. Tell people what this really means.

Unlike Trump, Farage does not have executive power. He cannot wield the same bully pulpit. Instead, he becomes the junior partner to voters' clearest symbol of instability and is left stranded. Farage cannot defend the indefensible, but nor can he convincingly break with a figure he has spent years praising. Nigel Farage's friendship with US president Donald Trump could cost him dearly (PA Media)
“The more Trump dominates the global agenda, the better Europe looks and the harder it becomes for Farage to argue that his brand of politics would make Britain safer, richer or more secure”
Well yes. The longest - FFS, wake up! - call to British voters ever…

Amazon dropped $75M on the Melania doc — with a big chunk going into the Trumps' pockets.
Since then, Amazon Web Services got a $580M Pentagon contract.
And this week, Pete Hegseth visited Blue Origin facilities as the DoD overhauls how it hands out defense contracts.
Always follow the money.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social what a continuing insult to have the ex US ambassador to Denmark on the programme spouting patronising bollocks in defence of the most odious POTUS. Balance my arse.
