Paul Marshall, the co-owner of GB News, has tripled his hedge fund investments in fossil fuel companies in the first quarter of 2026 to £2.1bn. They're a propaganda channel cashing in on destroying our future. Always follow the money.

But they seemed like such nice, patriotic, community-minded chaps. (Except the ones currently facing murder, child abuse & assault charges, obviously.)
Leaders of flag-raising group Raise the Colours Oxfordshire placed trackers on highway workers’ cars to find out their home addresses, the High Court has heard. RTC then attempted to intimidate the highway staff into no longer removing flags by repeating their addresses to them.
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 😡😡
Is “pragmatic” the new, “grown up” word? Andy, there’s nothing “pragmatic” about drilling for more oil & gas - to even consider it with the planet literally on fire is total madness. How many times must we say it will do nothing for energy bills or security? It would be an act of utter recklessness
Burnham promises ‘pragmatic’ approach to North Sea oil and gas
PM tells reporters the government cannot ignore the energy resource ‘when people are struggling’

Since we wrote 'Larger GPU-accelerated brain simulations with procedural connectivity' (doi.org/10.1038/s435...), GPU memory capacities have 🚀. In our newish paper (doi.org/10.23919/PDP...), we explore what this means for simulating large spiking brain models using GeNN (genn-team.github.io).

Don’t let Nigel Farage get away with claiming Brexit is good for either our national security or economy. It’s the reverse - Join us in @labour4europe.bsky.social to help reset our relationship with the EU and put our national defence first.
The Times corrects its splash story headlined "Migrant care workers bring dozens of family members." The Times got this totally wrong. It then used its own error as the basis for an editorial calling explicitly for forced expulsions of people living here legally. www.thetimes.com/comment/regi...
"Replay occurs in the dorsal striatum during offline consolidation of a procedural memory in mice" - even with total hippocampal lesions pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42493550/ It looks like memory replay is a general capability of the brain - not a special feature of the hippocampus!
We're just at the end of your last ten year plan. Not gonna lie, the results ain't that great.
"Overall carbon emissions have increased" in the UK, because of Net Zero, Kemi Badenoch repeatedly tells the BBC, to no pushback. Just completely untrue
We're less than a decade away from turning into a third world country. The sort of country where corrupt politicians are bought for £5 million and have all their expenses paid by convicted criminals.
Hard to think of a more deeply damaging start to Burnham’s premiership than giving green light to new oil & gas in N. Sea, if true. It won’t lower bills or lead to greater energy security but will drive an even hotter planet. What a terrible signal to give to rest of the world #ClimateVandalism

Andy Burnham will announce plans for new oil and gas drilling in the North Sea when he becomes prime minister on Monday, the BBC has been told. The announcement will form part of a flurry of policy m...

A reminder that since being elected as MP for Clacton two years ago, Farage has not held a single surgery for his constituents. I suggest Count Binface might do better.
If Count Binface and Nigel Farage are the only candidates in the Clacton by-election, do news reports and political shows need to give them equal coverage for fairness and balance?
Just a reminder for those not familiar with UK media, please don't circulate posts or articles by the Daily Mail, the paper has been aligned with the far-right since the 1930s and continues to promote the forces of modern fascism.
Under no circumstances should this by-election go ahead before the standards investigations are complete and the findings/punishments made public. This isn't a question of Party Politics. I'd say the same if it was Labour, Greens or any other party. People deserve to know who they're voting for.
Nigel Farage vs "the establishment" He went to private school, worked as a stockbroker, has been a professional politician for 31 years, has his own TV show, is a brand ambassador for gold, is mates with POTUS, accepted a secret £5m gift, and owns five houses bought outright with cash What a rebel

It's a good job Nigel Farage didn't fail to declare a ten quid Universal Credit overpayment, because he'd really be in trouble then
Well done to England’s soccer ball players! I thought it was a great innings and was cheering right through to the final set, along with all the other down to earth ordinary working people which is definitely what I am too, mate.
What kind of sociopath has EVER looked at a PDF document and said to themselves, "This could be a podcast?"
