There last few weeks shows how deeply principled and decent people can be, even when going through the most terrible pain. Their grace stands in stark contrast to those who would exploit their suffering for political gain.
The family of the Belfast stabbing victim have released a statement saying - like the family of Henry Nowak last week - that the attack should not be used to "divide people or fuel hostility" They condemned disorder and praised the "valuable contribution" by migrants inews.co.uk/news/politic...
Why UK taxes are coming the way of all citizens - a very interesting chart included.
UK tax has gone up significantly over the last 25 years But the tax paid by the average UK worker has not This apparent miracle was achieved by taxing “other people”: higher earners, capital, property, banks, etc The strategy has run out of road A 🧵 on what happens next.

For every young person drawn into violent behaviour or suicidal thoughts there is an older person who has been radicalised or tricked into an AI powered scam. Both extremes of neuroplasticity should concern us regarding social media, but it is understandable why only one is getting attention.
Continue to think the core problem with “ban the under 16s from social media” is it treats “online harms” as similar to a bottle of Grey Goose when they are far more akin to bathtub moonshine:

Perhaps we should all be banned from social media
Focusing only on under-16s obscures the lack of internet safeguards for everyone else

Welcome to our #FPL predicted team line ups for game week 38 with thanks to all of our predictors and especially @jonnyc.bsky.social Best of luck in all of your seasons!
Fantastic to see @thenerve.news’s investigation trending on UK Twitter. The crypto millions fuelling Britain’s far-right turn (the exact same playbook as Trump) requires much, much more scrutiny.
NEW: The Crypto Connection. @thenerve.news brings you…Part 1 of The Harbourne Receipts. A forensic examination of the cryptobillionaire’s donations & Farage’s crypto announcements. And guess what? There’s a pattern. Starting with the now infamous £5m gift. www.thenerve.news/p/investigat... 1/
A petition worth signing to open a debate about what we can do to reverse the damage of Brexit. People recognise it has made us all poorer and damaged public services. They realise recognise they were lied to by Farage & Johnson. 10 years on, let’s discuss solutions. #Brexit
💥 79,000💥 now! Well that IS fast progress. Let’s get it to 80,000 tonight people. Sign and share - you know the drill.
#FPL predicted line ups. For the final week of the season, we will be putting out predictions on Sunday morning 11am to allow our predictors time to gather additional information & update their predictions, if they wish. See you then.

Welcome to our #FPL predicted team line ups for game week 37 with thanks to all of our predictors and especially @jonnyc.bsky.social With so few active Man City predictors at the moment, we are unable to share a prediction today. Next season we need more volunteers to help us predict teams! Thanks

Good morning! Here is a three-day old sea-otter pup, snoozing on their Mama. The image is by one my favourite wildlife photographers, Suzi Eszterhas, who runs girlswhoclick.org - an organisation that mentors girls and young women interested in nature photography. Feel free to share.

#FPL predicted line up commentary - thanks!
Not time to do a full prediction graphic for @emma1.bsky.social and the team today. But I suspect Carrick goes back to what was "working" against Chelsea. Lammens Dalot Yoro Heaven Shaw Cassie Ugarte/Mainoo (if fit) Amad Bruno Cunha Mbeumo Be surprised if Sesko starts. Defence is a mess.
Could MattGPT face scrutiny under the UK’s ‘proceeds of crime’ law? The British right is awash with money from Orban thinktanks…which Hungary’s new PM says was stolen. Brilliant deep dive into Orban’s vast UK network by @McCoolingtons for @thenerve_news. 👏
NEW Hungary’s new PM has described Viktor Orbán’s funding of propaganda bodies as criminal and vowed to investigate. Bad news for ultraconservatives in the UK! Alice McCool's deep dive into Orban, his propaganda college MCC – and its links to the British right ⏬ www.thenerve.news/p/viktor-orb...
Predicted team line up commentary - thanks! #FPL
Man Utd predicted XI v Leeds for @emma1.bsky.social The two usual decisions. Dalot or Mazza and which one of the front four drops out. Normally that's Sesko, and I expect that will happen again. But I'm just going to keep predicting Mbuemo is dropped until it finally happens.
Welcome to our #FPL predicted team line ups for game week 32 with thanks to all of our predictors and especially @jonnyc.bsky.social - getting the predictions out earlier this week so missing a few predictors - will update later if anything significant changes.
NEW: I’ve found an opaque financial vehicle owns a large chunk of the Observer. And neither it or the Guardian will say who it is. Why? Well there is a clue. Which goes by way of Saudi Arabia… 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Welcome to our #FPL predicted team line ups for game week 31 with thanks to all of our predictors and especially @jonnyc.bsky.social We could really do with a few more Man City & Brighton predictors - dm if interested.
#FPL predicted line up commentary - thanks!
Early prediction for @emma1.bsky.social One change. Mbeumo has been AWFUL lately and doesn't look fully fit. Expect Sesko to replace him. That said, he probably won't 😆 Lammens Dalot Maguire Yoro Shaw Cassie Kobbie fucking Mainoo Amad Bruno Cunha Big Ben
#FPL predicted line up commentary - thanks!
Man Utd Predicted XI for @emma1.bsky.social As ever only two real decisions injuries permitting. Mazza v Dalot And which one of the front four warms the bench. I think Amad comes back in. We've been poor without him and I think Carrick reverts back. Mbeumo has been dreadful last 2 mind...
