Brexit unleashed epic levels of political dishonesty and anti-immigrant prejudice which were weaponised by unregulated social media and a rightwing press unwilling to hold their own to account. Until govt deals honestly and robustly with this reality, political and national failure is inevitable.

Writing for Byline Times, Caroline Lucas, Co-President of European Movement UK, argues that "the damaging #Brexit experiment imposed on us must now be reversed". #RejoinEU #LiarFarage bylinetimes.com/2026/05/01/n...

“When homophobic hate comes my way and says, ‘Why did you have to make it a gay story?’ We say, ‘Because you ask questions like that. It’s not a gay story it’s a love story, you asshole” —Nick Offerman, his response to people bitching about his character being gay in The Last of Us.

Extraordinary that in these fractious & divided times, so many of us can unite around the single, simple fact that Matthew Goodwin is an irredeemable twat.

This one hits hard.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre. She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s. Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Wow.

Pressure building on govt to come clean about Mandelson's role in bringing US spy-tech firm Palantir into the heart of our NHS. The fingerprints of Mandelson and his lobbying firm are all over these deals. The rot goes to the heart of this Labour govt www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Calls to halt UK Palantir contracts grow amid ‘lack of transparency’ over deals

Opposition MPs urge Labour to pause public contracts with the US tech firm after attempts to examine deals blocked

As much as I love Star Trek, it really gets kind of frustrating that they keep tap dancing around the best era, the best starships, and the best uniforms. The 2273-2285 era is ripe for the picking. Hell, they even teased the red uni's in SNW. They know they're the best. Do it.

Mark Ruffalo donned an anti-ICE pin at the #GoldenGlobes in tribute to Renee Good, who was shot and killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer this week in Minneapolis. The black-and-white pin read “BE GOOD." Follow live updates from the show: apnews.com/live/golden-...

Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans. This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota: “Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Abolish the crazy thugs at ICE.

Michelle Mone can be expelled from the House of Lords by a simple majority vote in the Commons, and then in the House of Lords. Like if she needs to go. RT if she has to go.

BREAKING: UK’s response to Covid was “too little too late”. Acting faster could have saved 23,000 lives in England according to the public inquiry. Boris Johnson presided over a “toxic, sexist, chaotic culture” in No10, where rule-breaking seriously undermined public confidence.

@theb1m.bsky.social have you gents posted regarding Thomas Heatherwick’s latest creation sprouting in the blue half of Birmingham? It’s truly mental

Only 37 per cent of the electorate voted for Brexit after a campaign shaped by misinformation. The real way that Britain can strengthen its national interest is by rebuilding trust with Europe and restoring the protection of jobs, trade and stability.

Apologies for being late to this news, but it seems we have found ourselves a Muslim gentleman that no one can find a reason to hate on. Doesn’t that feel grand! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

SPOILER ALERT: An increase to our GDP by 4%-6% through membership of the Single Market is better than any "magic money tree". To say nothing of EU social, regional and infrastructure funding plus non-profit investment loans from the European Investment Bank.

'There isn’t a magic money tree,' Rachel Reeves said as she refused to rule out income tax hikes in England during a pre-Budget speech

Musings as we approach 5am GMT- I’m shattered and sleep deprived trying to sleep on a chair in HDU while keeping my Papa company as he snores- with a CRP of 270 and borderline sepsis with acute on chronic confusion. GP attended for home visit at 12pm- admitted to medics via A&E at 3pm…

Someone said to me "Why's Nigel Farage's girlfriend on Question Time?" I said, "I don't think she is." They said, "Look, it's her!." And pointed at Fiona Bruce.

So, if there was a small family of four speaking Dutch in a part of New York, living next door to 20 hollering people shouting in English, would it be reasonable for the small Dutch family to question why those 20 are next door? This is just the VP promoting future ghettos for some cohorts 😞

“This language from the Vice President betrays so much of the promise we have as a nation.”

I had a haircut last week It took a week to book & when I arrived there was only one hairdresser, instead of the usual 4 One away, one sick, one unable to recruit A man walked in, honestly he looked in great need of a haircut ‘Sorry mate we’re fully booked’ The parallels …

We just defeated Nigel Farage’s Bill in Parliament to tear up people’s rights and withdraw from the ECHR. Farage wants to do away with the Britain Churchill built and turn it into a version of Trump's America. We stopped him.
