Quite impressive to completely undermine your own defence and insult most of your party's elected officials in the same sentence.

'I would go ape if my daughter was on the receiving end of this, and double ape at my son if he was doing it.' Shelagh Fogarty condemns the 'pervasive' misogyny happening in schools, as new reports of 'rape lists' emerge.
French forces held a fierce defensive perimeter around Dunkirk and lost 18,000 souls. 40,000 became POWs. Without their resolve we wouldn’t have our nation’s story. It’s estimated 20-60k French resistance fighters died during the war. These fuckers really are vile bastards 😡😡

Bordeaux, France, has now recorded more days above 40°C in 2026 alone than during the entire 105-year period from 1920 (when observations began) to 2025. This is deeply shocking.
Nick Ferrari reminding us in 2016 that Nigel Farage is a career politician: "He's been the leader of UKIP since 2010" (forgets to mention he co-founded UKIP in 1993) "He's also been an MEP since 1999" "Before politics he worked as a commodity broker (1981–1993)"

I'm massively sympathetic to UK farmers facing the drought. The farmer on the @bbcnews-uk-rss.bsky.social , facing HUGE consequences after 2 years of poor rainfall says he can only asses the impact "on rough numbers off the top of my head". Respectfully, you need to run some hard numbers.
It is complete nonsense, regardless of the level of super-intelligence, to predict that AI is going to "solve climate change". This 'expert' cannot be trusted any more than any other grifter working in AI #newsnight @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social
