FFS we cannot keep doing this… A handful of the richest people hoovering up wealth from everyone else while quite literally making the planet unlivable At what point does someone grow a fucking spine and do something?!
Imagine thinking so little of yourself that you just let this half sentient rotten potato talk to you like this. I don't care if he's president, have some self respect.

My column on how capital becomes a death cult. Faced with a choice between profit and human life, the radical right chooses profit. Then it tries to persuade us that mass death is what we want. It's the new phase of climate denial: accept your fate, earthlings. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Badenoch is driving Tory popularity back below 20% and it's important she remains the party leader. She also needs to stay committed to her pledge never to merge with the Faragists and the ReformUK ex-Tories.
Stephen Bush@stephenkb.bsky.social · 20h agoKemi Badenoch is doing well, and it is hard to- nay, impossible - to imagine that a different Conservative leader, making different choices, would not be in a better place right now.
Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

Nick Robinson is corrected by his own colleague, Jeremy Bowen: Iran is NOT talking to the Americans. #r4today This is so basic and so well known. How come Robbo fails to understand something so fundamental?
Kemi Badenoch certainly seems to be advancing with her agenda to turn the Conservatives into Reform.

I mean this in all seriousness, this is a severely mentally ill & delusional person who not only should be removed from office under the 25th amendment, but he should be in a psych ward. This is pure insanity on so many levels. He lives in a fantasy world. He is unwell & has lost touch with reality.
How come the BBC has failed to report on cruel, authoritarian, disciplinarian factory schools these many years? Why do parents have to do it for themselves? These places should be closed down. How parents and pupils took on 'cruel', 'authoritarian' schools - and won. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Of course Iran is talking to Oman, not the USA. So why did the BBC obediently read out Trump's lying press release in its headlines today? Why is its political editor a toady? Iran says it is in talks with Oman but not the US after Trump says negotiations to resume. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
