Labour's core voters, on which its re-election entirely depends, are crystal clear about this: they absolutely hate its illiberal, intolerant, draconian, rightwards turn. Hence the total collapse in support. So how does the government respond? #SuicideMission🤦♂️

And also shutting the courts 'archive', yes? Odd for a country with an unwritten constitution isn't it? Happy to be corrected.
Pam Bondi is not the US Attorney General.
She is Trump's consigliere.
That's because Bezos is Trump's lickspittle and Trump's Pitin's lickspiittle so when Putin squalks, Trump has to act and so rang up Bezos and said: 'Oi, Geoff, that Lizzie Johnson's being too dilligent. Spike her rather than her story.
Who are you?
You may be pleased to hear that Boodles, London's 2nd oldest gentlemen's club, founded in 1762, has a signature pudding dish. It's called Boodle's Orange Fool. Strangely prophetic.
Ice is out of control. It's gone rogue.
It's like Colonel Kurtz in Apocalypse Now - gone way up river with no oversight, control or accountability. Its mission must be terminated.
Trump's choice to run Venezuela until it's been pumped dry revealed.
Ohio
A picture of pagans cavorting with fire. And the words 'WINTER SOLSTICE. Get naked, drink mead and party like a Pagan because Christmas spent queuing at Argos is just bollocks.'
Happy 21st of December to those who celebrate
Pamela Jo Bondi, doing her part to help an administration that calls itself, with a seemingly straight face, "The Most Transparent in American History."
So Reform Wales boss Nathan Gill gets 10+ years jail and it perhaps becomes clearer as to why Farage and MEPs from his Brexit Party (now Reform) voted against a European Parliament resolution in Oct 2019 that called for stronger EU measures to counter Russian propaganda and election interference.
MusK is like the Zorg character in The Fifth Element. With all his power and with all his scheming he's suddenly choking on a cherry stone. In this instance the cherry stone has a name, Mamdani, the new Mayor of New York.
Well played Plaid
Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.
Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.
Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.
Hey Palantir, why not go the whole hog with branded tazers, cable ties, hoods and cattle prods? You know, all the lifestyle accessories favoured by dictators and authoritarian regimes. Next you'll be saying that Nazis had a good logo and mission statement.

Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch.
Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.
Between being called The Butcher's Apron and right now, the Union Jack had a period where it stood for fairness, justice, tolerance and welcome and I bloody well resent it being appropriated by those who have in their hearts none of the above.
Where taste goes to die
"If you live in Alaska, I need you to buy a Ukrainian flag and turn any area that Putin is going to be into a sea of Ukrainian flags - so many that, when Putin lands, all he's going to see is just yellow and blue."
No doubt this is what man-made climate change-denying Andrea Jenkyns would like to see happen here. All the Reform types say their anti-migrant protest is about protecting children but that doesn't extend to passing on a habitable planet. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Shithouse headline of the day
%age of UK population born abroad = 16%. If prison pop. reflected that it should be c1 in 6 prisoners - but as it is, foreign-born people c22% less likely to be in prison - but that won't play well with the Times white-collar knuckle dragger readers
Israel's a country where for many the red mist's descended. The blood lust's up and kept up by those whose political lives depend on the genocide continuing. But when the last medic's been bombed, the last journalist shot & the last family buried alive, who's next?
Scotland welcomes Trump with a special commemorative statue.
Nicking this : )
Lego City set. Non-identified Federal Goon Squad. Seems more relevant now than when it was made in 2020.
This just came up in my FB memories, from FIVE YEARS AGO! Lego always was ahead of their time.
For those bitching about lowering voting age - young people will be the most impacted by the climate change. They see many of the supposed adults in the room - mainly those doing the bitching - doing Jack Shit and decrying Net Zero targets. It's only right they should have a say.
Some people's president.
Some people's predator.
Just figured out why Trump's head is orange.
He is, in medical parlance, termed PP - Pumpkin Positive
Shine a torch in his ear and the whole head lights up.
