Just checked and of course, the last time there was a Commons vote on this back in 2018, Badenoch voted against the proposals to decant and get on with the restoration of the Palace of Westminster, as the cross-party joint commission had strongly recommended.
Henry Mance@henrymance.ft.com · 4d agoThere's obviously a serious point here, but it's quite funny optics for the Conservative party to complain that it used to be so much quicker to build a stately home.
Replacing every single Op-Ed writer in the United Kingdom with a one line ChatGPT prompt that asks for 600 words on why whatever just happened in the news means the government should immediately crack down on immigration, and possibly also trans people.
Alan Lester@alanlester.bsky.social · 4d agoThe riots are about education & the cost of living. Reducing immigration will not solve those embedded problems & restore “fraternity”. What is it with Phillips’ obsession about (implicitly Muslim) immigration? French riots show Andy Burnham his top priority www.thetimes.com/article/6610...
I made breakfast burritos and summer rolls today, big day for wrapped food in my house, the summer rolls were not photogenic
A mainstream journalist giving a sit down interview with extremists like Musk and Weidel really should be unacceptable, they’re Nazis! That’s all that needs said about them, you can’t argue with them and airtime won’t kill them
I would really like to ask the MPs shouting about how the Supreme Court decided who they think makes the law

no offence but why is the British public being asked about my medical diagnosis, would it also like to check out my ankles and my elbows to decide whether I really have hypermobile joints, should I cough on them next time I have a cold so they can confirm that I'm ill
YouGov@yougov.co.uk · last wk.With much media coverage of a government report that ADHD and autism are being over-diagnosed, a claim which some experts have disputed, half of Britons now believe that the conditions are being over-diagnosed Over-diagnosed: 50% Under-diagnosed: 17% About right: 17% yougov.com/en-gb/daily-...
Genuinely kind of astonishing to me that we have to pretend these are real concerns and not problems they've imagined themselves into
Jordan@jordanpfot.bsky.social · last wk.What a heartless, cruel thing for an elected representative to say.
Sorry it’s just intolerable that Labour MPs can now get away with quite literally posting that trans people make them uncomfortable *because they are trans* and our expectations are so lowered that we just don’t expect any action to be taken at all.

People who go to the gym: is there any exercise you’d recommend that also stretch your lower back
This is so stupid, local councils don’t have any control over foreign policy and either the councillors are antisemitic and you shouldn’t be working with them anyway or they’re not and nothing has changed
Peter Walker@peterwalker99.bsky.social · last wk.Ultimatum from Labour to local Greens: formally disown the 'Zionism is racism' motion and call for it to be overturned, or we will end any deals with have in co-running councils.

Too many insta recipes put cornflour in everything, not every stew or liquid based meal needs cornflour, just reduce it instead and you get a much better texture (most of the time)
The whole discourse about Glasgow city centre being unsafe in 2026 genuinely feels like a psyop at this point because it is so completely at odds with observable reality.

well done lads, it's 2026 & you've managed to allow the fucking Sun to position itself as slightly less hostile to people who support LGBT+ rights than The Big Supposedly Gay Dancing Show
Andrew Clifford@tscnewschannel.bsky.social · 2w ago12 October 2026: The Sun leads on a row over the BBC and Strictly Come Dancing after a contestant’s pro-trans T-shirt slogan was reportedly edited out of coverage, sparking accusations of censorship. #TomorrowsPapersToday
About ten years ago on some BBC dance competition, they edited out the line “gay, straight or bi” from Born This Way and pretended it was for timing reasons, they’ve always been trying to erase our existence
Mike (They/Them) 🏳️⚧️🇵🇸🏴@mxmike.co.uk · 2w agoBethany wore a “Protect The Dolls” t-shirt during rehearsals. The BBC posted it on their socials then quietly deleted and reposted it without showing her from the front. On TV last night they actually blurred the message #Strictly

Aside from the obvious lie, whys no one asking neurotypical people what the big deal is? So what if your kid has autism or adhd? How’s that a bad thing?
Mark Grimshaw@markgrimshawtism.bsky.social · 2w agoA fascinating editorial decision from the BBC, to make the headline a scaremongering “AUTISM AND ADHD ARE BEING OVERDIAGNOSED”, and then, four bullet points later, have the author of the report quoted as essentially saying “nah, that’s bullshit, actually”.
