And Matt Goodwin who DID NOT win
obviously today is a huge embarrassment for Matt Goodwin and for Reform, which is something that we absolutely ought to celebrate, but we must also remember it's a huge embarrassment for Morgan McSweeney and Maurice Glasman and all the Blue Labour weirdos, and that's important to celebrate too :)
This post is the single best advert for the fact that proper local journalism matters.
If Jimβs team hadnβt put the pieces together quickly, this wouldnβt have been stopped.
The more Reform UK male politicians obsess over sex the more convinced I become that being rejected by women is the true engine of the party
My apologies, Iβve just seen it is being filmed in Kelowna, as you were
Iβm not sure, have you ever been to a Buck n' Doe in Northern Ontario, DJβd by the local country music station?
ahem
A version of the Wes Streeting 'I never knew Peter Mandelson well' opinion column. Photo is of my cat. Text reads: Ignore the smears: I was never on the kitchen table, and I am deeply concerned about the cultural moral failing of going on tables. I was only in the kitchen in the 1st place to prevent other cats from jumping on the table. That sound you heard was me doing something else. An additional 'linked' headline reads: Scientists study reappearance of mysterious cat-like wet footprints on surface of table, despite assurances that cat βknows itβs naughtyβ to go on the table.
Iβm sorry
awful AI shitslop image of a train in a sort of Scottish looking city that's blue and has a logo on the side formed of a lightning bolt in a thick circle
that same logo in its original blue and red colours, which happens to be the literal flag of the British Union of Fascists
Top tip: to avoid having the British Union of Fascists logo on the side of your mock-up train, don't use horrible text-to-image AI slop instead of actual designers and artists.

O'Hara as Cookie Fleck, limping wildly into the arena at the climax of Best in Show. Incredible, subtle physical comedy. Every second she is on screen is a dream. Unparalleled.
the good news for Kemi Badenoch is that she's actually being handed on a silver platter an opportunity to partially detoxify her party without needing to do anything other than appear non-toxic
the bad news is that she is Kemi Badenoch
Transit for the win.
Not the guy with the yellow folder breaking
Having a proper Mandela Effect moment at Suella defecting to Reform, something I would have sworn blind had happened a year ago.
What I love about this is either you've seen the Trump post and a London mayoral candidate is tying themselves to a figure who is almost universally reviled in London OR you haven't and it reads as threatening to put London into an ice age
Screenshot from BBC News live text coverage of Trump press conference: 19:27 This news conference could go on for a very long time (byline: Gary O'Donoghue, Chief North America correspondent at the White House) This is the president in his most enigmatic and expansive mood. During the campaign this used to be called "the weave" β meandering from subject to subject, often the connections not immediately obvious.
going to use "at my most enigmatic and expansive" to describe the next time I have a few too many wines
London* gets its first Reform MP: Andrew Rosindell.
*Admittedly Andrew dislikes being part of London so much he has repeatedly campaigned for his constituency to be moved into Essex.
I'll say it again: watching Robert Jenrick do "cunning politics" is like watching a toddler hide behind a cushion.
"Where's Robert gone? THERE HE IS! Oh no! Where is he? THERE HE IS!"
Quite frankly, itβs outrageous that Mark Carney is cutting Statistics Canada. If he was Stephen Harper or Pierre Poilievre, I feel like this would be getting a lot more backlash.
Carney of all people should know the importance of high-quality data and information about the country.
I cannot stress enough that homelessness is caused by policy levers primarily at the provincial level.
And AMO's new report shows it: homelessness in Ontario rose 8% last year, with 85,000 people becoming homeless. 20,000 were youth and children.
Horrifying.

The FT got is architecture critic Edwin Heathcote to write about data centres and it's wonderful. www.ft.com/content/7692...
'Another Warrington has hit the North-West'.
Again, "I only make CSAM for money" would not help an ordinary person's defence, but would aggravate their sentencing.
Elon Musk quote tweeting " π―" in response to some absolutely insane racism that begins "If White men become a minority we will be slaughtered"
11 days from now marks one year since this guy got away with doing a Nazi salute on live TV. Since then, he - the world's richest man - has gutted govt programmes causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands of children and turned his microblogging website into a child porn generator. Consequences!
no one wants to hire me. because my whimsy is a liability
Ashley St. Clair @stclairashley Just saw a photo that Grok produced of a child no older than four years old in which it took off her dress, put her in a bikini + added what is intended to be semen. ChatGPT does not do this. Gemini does not do this. Another girl who appears to be just 11 or 12 with a brain tumor, Grok removed her shirt completely. Stating that the people producing the prompts are the only ones responsible puts an undue burden on victims, most of which have no idea this is happening. This problem + exploitation of children could be fixed in a matter of minutes by the MechaHitler team.
Elon Musk chatbot repeatedly making CSAM on demand should be one of the single biggest stories right now and it's effectively a collective shrug instead
this is how every outlet should refer to X
I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance".
It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder".
The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.
