Farage on GB News: Demand that Ofcom takes immediate action - Best for Britain

bestforbritain.org

🔴 We asked Tony Blair's think tank about charging businesses £500k for political access at party conferences and why one of its sponsor's logos disappeared after our reporting last week on TBI's alleged cash for access scheme This is what they said

How I feel right now about the British/ 🇬🇧English( whatever) political landscape is that some one wrapped in a Union Jack could whack me over the head with a flag pole & the BBC would shove a microphone in my face asking why I provoked the attacker & the Home Sec would invite the attacker for tea .

This is an absolutely wild misreading of my point, which was that students were being missold their debt - not by universities, who are being stiffed by the same system, but by policy makers. Also weird to turn replies off

Really grim to see @zoesqwilliams.bsky.social just spit out tired old vomit about universities. She should know better.

I missed FAMU honoring Dolly Parton at Miami Friday night.

This is a very gorgeous and sometimes tearjerking piece

"If you aren’t acknowledging those systemic attacks on literary culture, it’s hard for me to muster any enthusiasm for your arguments about apps and young people." Finally sat down with @jpinckney.bsky.social's response to the latest death-of-reading subgenre. You should too!

It's a long shot but Bluesky is as good a place as any for this: does anyone have a ticket they can't use for the Zeteo launch at the Barbican tmrw? I will buy it off you if so (I have one, I just want to take my kid).

This has strong drapetomania vibes, & if you don't know what is, and you also want to know how truly intellectually disgusting the establishment can be, go look it up

However much you hate British media, it is not enough www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09...

Unbelievably unpleasant to see Reform members' violent relish. Reminds me of @timbale.bsky.social's recent research

Otto English@ottoenglish.bsky.social · last mo.

This is deeply shocking.

White professor ‘ MattGPT ‘ whose most recent book contained fabricated quotations, non-existent source references, & left ChatGPT URLs accidentally embedded in footnotes is sad about Jason Arday’s death but still wants Arday & all black academia held to higher standards than his own writing .

The necessity of this is absolutely heartbreaking gofund.me/48619c00f

I doubt you will hear much of anything new to you in this video, but it still might be worth 10 minutes of your time. There is something really refreshing in hearing someone with a big platform calling out obvious bullshit and dishonesty for what it is. www.youtube.com/watch?v=46tp...

Wrote a thing about Rod Liddle www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I knew Rod Liddle and hated what he became. He would have wanted me to say so | Zoe Williams

A man who prized blunt speaking has been selectively eulogised. There’s a balance between decency and honesty: I’m sad he caused such harm, says Guardian columnist Zoe Williams

theguardian.com

Comments under my pig column much funnier than the column www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I would never go on holiday to France and come back with a pig. But I’ll admit I was tempted | Zoe Williams

The animal was no bigger than a pug and, when you scratched it, lay on its side and snorted with joy, writes Zoe Williams. Who could ask for more?

theguardian.com

If Rod Liddle, RIP, were editing this Today obituary about himself, he would say 'what the fuck are you thinking, having two bros agree what a great guy I was? You're not even going to include a voice that mildly objected to me? Have you forgotten that my life's work was as a contrarian?'

Wrote a thing about London and shamefully included a thing about Gary Young that I've written before and ofc _he's_ written before and this is like repeating yourself to a friend x1000. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Does Andy Burnham really hate London? He wouldn’t be the only one | Zoe Williams

Both left and right have it in for Britain’s capital. But is London a stabby wasteland, a den of faceless bureaucrats, or just a mess of overprivileged wokerati, asks Zoe Williams

I have the saltiest work experience kid. First thing she did when she walked in was say my dog looked like Jimothy the misshapen Seattle racoon. (she isn't wrong)

Unbelievable and yet entirely believable detail in Anna Moore's brilliant drug-facilitated rape piece www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Dawn Foster died five years ago on this date. I really miss her and I think about her every day. If you’re new to her work or want to introduce it to someone, this was the best tribute written about her: tribunemag.co.uk/2021/07/in-m... Dawn Foster Forever

@youngvulgarian.marieleconte.com sorry to bug you out of the blue, I have a young French person staying with me and I want to find out for here where all the French people in London are watching the football?

I don't suppose I have any air stewards following, do I? I want to interview you if so. DMs open (so you can be anonymous in the piece)

Absolutely ❤️ having a work experience young 'un who's French

My observation on British cultural life of the 21st century is that whenever a Real Person is pitched against Something Ridiculous (Attenborough v Boaty McBoatface, Liz Truss v a lettuce, Nigel Farage v Binface), Something Ridiculous wins

I loved this conversation, even the inconclusivity felt like part of its value

LSE Inequalities@lseinequalities.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Do disparities between generations drive populism? Does geographical exclusion – such as the infrastructure lacking in rural vs urban areas – alter one’s relationship to politics? Guardian columnist @zoesqwilliams.bsky.social discusses in our latest blog post #LSEInequalitiesBlog buff.ly/41DMCaN

Long shot, but if anyone in North #Oxford has lost a tortoise with a surprising turn of speed in the heat, do get in touch..

I even like the typo in the headline, the way it conveys Dunt outrage: it's it's UTTERLY MAD

Tim Bale@timbale.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Hard not to regard this as a classic example of a pre-emptive campaign by certain sectors, along with their media sympathisers, to discourage a new prime minister from appointing someone who might damage their interests in the long and short term. And it will almost certainly work.
