β€œ'The administration thoughtlessly terminated people with crisis experience, and now they’re left without depth in the bench in the middle of a wide scale and broadening crisis,' said a former official with more than a decade experience in evacuation operations..."

Apparently Question Time is heading to Clacton.

That’s a sure fire way of ensuring Nigel Farage won’t be on it…

Farage, leading, as usual, by watching which way the crowd is moving and running to the front.

Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.

The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.

It’s time for accountability.

Badenoch said if she was prime minister HMS Dragon would have left a week ago. Presumably with its doors hanging off and with no weapons onboard.

Children's access to social media is a subject of general debate and a Government consultation. @CommonsSITC we looked at the underlying evidence and I asked some of those supporting a ban if better regulation was an alternative to address the harms children experience online.

Well, this is hugely telling

How about regime change in the US as well?
Too much to ask?

Who do they represent? Themselves.

Nigel Farage and Suella Braverman missed NINE votes in Parliament last night, all because they had a more important Reform UK rally on the Isle of Wight.

They think they are too big to do their job.

No other voices, none of the more than 50% of the population who are not religious, have any useful philosophical or ethical perspectives, according to Thought for the Day. A lingering relic of a theocracy on our airwaves!

Will Greenwood was on Radio 4’s Today programme this morning, with a philosophical reflection on England’s performance. The response: β€œWe should sign you up for Thought for the Day”. And yet - that wouldn’t happen, would it, Radio 4 - because you reserve that spot exclusively for religious voices.

Picture of Farage from GB News website with the caption For GB News's funders, Β£130m is a small price to pay fro vast influence

GB News, the channel of β€œreactionary rage bait”, has released its latest accounts showing a Β£22m loss for 2024/25 (and a Β£131m total loss since launch)

Yet another demonstration that there’s no shortage of funds on the right of British politics, writes @writesbright.bsky.social for the Nerve

TimothΓ©e Chalamet triggers backlash over ballet and opera remarks In an interview, the Oscar-nominee danced into some online controversy after claiming no one cares about ballet and opera.

Extraordinary for someone in one art form to dismiss the talent, skill, achievements &hard work in other art forms. Opera & ballet have been around a while, are constantly evolving and will be making great work for years to come. He is of course welcome to try! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I suspect neither of us are likely to be persuaded by the other.
