As climate chaos spreads, remember, those who had the power to slam the brakes on the emissions trajectory, had the technology AND know-how to do this, but they chose not to. The blame for all the suffering and loss is on them and, in democracies, everyone who voted these people into power.

It just keeps on coming… Farage struck deal to return as leader long before Sunak called surprise 2024 vote, so his claim that he wasn’t involved in politics when he got his £5million “gift” is, of course, another grubby lie. The man is garbage. Grifting, lying, cheating garbage. (Sunday Times)

Farage struck deal to return as leader long before election Reform chief had insisted he was not involved in politics until Sunak called surprise 2024 vote Extracts; Nigel Farage struck a secret deal to return as Reform UK leader months before the general election. Farage negotiated the pact with Richard Tice, then the leader, in March and April 2024. George Cottrell, the convicted fraudster who had been secretly bankrolling Farage, supervised the discussions. Under the terms of the deal, Reform agreed to repay or write off more than £1 million in outstand ing loans it had taken from Tice's company upon Farage becoming leader. The deal was first presented by Farage and Cottrell to the party's treasurer in mid-May. Its existence undermines the Reform leader's claim that he had no intention until June 2024 of returning to politics. Farage has used this to defend his failure to declare donations made to him in the year before he was elected as an MP, which triggered two parliamentary investigations. Last night, Reform sources acknowledged the existence of the deal but insisted it had been drafted for if, not when, Farage became leader. Asked why he would have signed such an agreement if he had no intention of returning as leader, they said it kept his options open. They said Farage had assumed he would focus his energies on campaigning for Donald Trump in that year's US presidential election. Farage has claimed repeatedly that he did not need to declare a £5 million gift from the crypto--billionaire Christopher Harborne or in-kind benefits from Cottrell, as he was a media personality at the time. MPs must declare any benefit in any way connected to their "political activities" received in the 12 months before their election. He told the "anti-woke" Trigger-nometry podcast last month: "At that period of my life, from 2021 to the third of June 2024, I was a broadcaster… I was somebody that promoted financial market products, I was an influencer, I wasn't in politics."

Had a heated debate with a friend about why the use of words such as ‘create’ in Ae-Ay usage normalises the idea that art & design are simple, easy concepts that anyone can achieve and pushes the enshitification of visual literacy. It was complicated & upsetting. I should’ve just shown him this 💅

Thank you everyone who sent me horrible AI generated flyers from around the world at my request. I was fully overwhelmed with hundreds and hundreds of these. These are the worst I saw. The hall of shame. Please enjoy and/or numb your brain: www.404media.co/these-are-th...

Unless this “honesty” involves the recognition that immigrants are *not* the root cause of the UK’s problems *but* actually a part of the solution to them, this will be completely pointless. I cannot stress this enough. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
