The Tory "plan" to send prisoners to foreign jails isn't getting enough scrutiny. What is the legal basis for banishing British citizens to Albania? Whose laws are they subject to? How many prison staff have to go over? Are family visits just abolished? How many prisoners are we talking about?

I'm not sure folks have realized just how crazy the second half of 2026 and 2027 will be for global temperatures – on the back of a record-smashing El Niño event. Here is my latest estimate of where both years will end up compared to global temperatures since 1850.
Fauci is a hero. Rand Paul’s a zero. Who agrees? Full story here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/fauci-just...
Fauci Just Humiliated Rand Paul In Front Of The Entire World
Five years led to this. Trump’s Supreme Court threat died in silence. Comey called it revenge. A teachers union froze NVIDIA cold.

I'm alive today is because I listened to Dr. Fauci. Turns out, covid causes certain issues that dovetail perfectly into my rare, autoimmune disease. Something I did not find out until years later. Not personally, because I listened, & masked & distanced. I'm still isolated 100% Bless Dr. Fauci!

Just sitting on the pavement and clapping is now terrorism. Not saying anything, not holding or displaying any signs, just sitting on the pavement & clapping. Andy Burnham can stop this. But he isn't. Reporting by Steven Methven for @novaramedia.com
"A concentration camp, in its most basic definition, is a place where a targeted civilian population, not necessarily accused of a crime, is detained and at least some of their basic rights are suspended," writes @jwashing.bsky.social. "That’s precisely what’s happening in the United States today."

I’ve spent a decade reporting on immigration enforcement. The word ‘camp’ best captures the political function of these facilities

Republicans didn’t just cut healthcare. They timed the massive cuts to hit AFTER they get your November vote. How fucked is that? The good news is we see what they're up to, and we're calling them out! In 95 days, we can reverse Trump's deadly damage done by this American Zero.

2/4 How many know about Air Control methods between the wars? Presaging drone warfare the RAF routinely bombed villages across swathes of NW India, N Africa & the Middle East. In one 1930 campaign alone, it dropped 23,000 bombs & 80,000 incendiaries on villagers & livestock.

Said this before, will again. Badenoch is the most dangerous figure in British politics. She's not as extreme as Farage or Lowe, but her impact is more pernicious. She actively prevents the British centre-right from adopting moderate positions, and thereby facilitates the radicalisation process.
Farewell Bill, most radical of the Goodies. Present at Grosvenor Square with Tariq & Vanessa. Turned his harassment by the Met into slapstick TV comedy for kids. Angry, hairy, furiously talented.
